[Steppes] [Ansteorra] constructing a horse

[Michelle Dodd]

There is a book that I found on buy.com;
Make This Model Trojan Horse (Paperback) Author: Ian Ashman 
List Price:  See Details $9.95 Sale Price:  $5.85 Shipping:  $2.85 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Total Price:  $8.70 
 
Is there a size requirement or time limit?
Another suggestion; I haven't made a trojan horse but I did watch and assist my father make rocking horses. I still have the plan pieces. Going by what he did, I would suggest making flat pieces for the sides and the inside of the legs. Then use popsicle sticks to make the middle width. He can also use the sticks to cover the side pieces to give them the right texture.
 
Be sure and post pictures when he is done.
