The face that started it all
This was my first DW Hagen Renaker, a gift from a very good friend and the start of my obsession with them.
Avalon
This small Zara is Monrovia issue, and looks quite different from Melissande.
She is pedigreed as a Polish Arabian mare.

Beleza
She is the chestnut version of Forever Amber, and she is pedigreed as a Lusitano mare. Her name is Portuguese for "beautiful"
Brisa
She is the palomino version of Forever Amber, with a Monrovia sticker. She is pedigreed to be a Lusitano mare. Her name means "breeze" in Portuguese
Easy Lover
Raced in FTRA (formerly MRF) racing under the name My Easy Lover, this Thoroughbred gelding was a winner on the track. He is now a winning show horse.
He is Monrovia issue large Swaps, and the white thing near his loin is the edge of his name sticker. The sticker on the belly indicates that he was made at the Monrovia facility.

Finest Hour
Probably my most accomplished live show horse over the years, this Quarter Horse gelding has earned a NAN Superior Event Horse title in OF China halter.
He is semi-retired from live showing, although he still shows up in collectibility classes on occasion.
He is a Monrovia version of the buckskin Two Bits model. He is moderately light in color.

Joy
After being delivered elsewhere in early December 2011, the package finally arrived at my door on January 1, 2012! In honor of the joy I felt at her overdue arrival, plus the residual feelings from the holidays, her name was pretty obvious.
She is being pedigreed as a Thoroughbred filly.
The model is Miss Pepper in chestnut.

Melissande
This is a really horrid picture of a beautiful model. She is pedigreed as a Polish Arabian mare.
She is the "Small Zara" who was most likely made in the San Dimas factory. She has more facial shading than Avalon, but less shading on her mane and tail.
