Since releasing Finn in ceramic, I've had a lot of requests to make him in sabino.  I originally planned to make the base color on this guy bay, but while compiling reference materials for my Mayhem trip I kept coming across pictures of flaxen-maned Clydesdales.  They were all in my "darned if I know" files, because I really am not sure what is lightening the manes and tails on them.  Certainly some small number are flaxen chestnuts, but most look suspiciously like bays with pale manes and tails.  It's possible that these guys are red silvers, are that sabino itself is effecting the mane and tail.   Of course, the sabino pattern itself covers up the legs and much of the face, which are where you'd usually look for clues.

So that's my long explanation to say that I cannot tell you what color this Finn really is!  I can say that the combination isn't really that rare in Clydesdales.  And it's rather flattering on the Finn!  (Oh, and this particular piece is glossy.)
