A horse of legend and lore, the elegant Arabian is instantly recognizable by its high tail carriage, elegantly arched neck, and distinctive dished face and head shape.

And God took a handful of South wind and from it formed a horse, saying: "I create thee, Oh Arabian. To thy forelock, I bind Victory in battle. On thy back, I set a rich spoil and a Treasure in thy loins. I establish thee as one of the Glories of the Earth... I give thee flight without wings." -- Ancient Bedouin Legend.

Arabians are one of the oldest horse breeds. They originated in the desert climate of the Arabian Peninsula and were prized by the nomadic Bedouin tribes who used them as beasts-of-burden and war mounts as far back as 3000 BC.

Today, their exquisite beauty, intelligence, stamina and devotion to their owners has made Arabians one of the most popular breeds in the world. Their high-spirited athleticism and willingness to please make the Arabian a horse that excels in most every equine sport. Arabians can be seen in long distance trail competitions, dressage, racing, the show ring, ridden or driven in harness and make a wonderful horse for families.

Arabians often run with their heads held high, breathing deeply through wide open nostrils. They have come to be known as "Drinkers of the Wind" and are said to draw their speed, strength and courage from the very wind from which they were created..

HiveWire 3D honors the the majestic spirit of the Arabian with an Arabian morph and texture for the HiveWire Horse.

Also included for your mystical and magical renders are Arabian textures and fits for the HiveWire Unicorn Beard, Horn and Tail, and textures for the HiveWire Foal Mane.

Bright white lights will tend to wash out the white texture of the Arabian Horse, so we recommend that you choose other lighting.

Poser Users:

1-When using the fit poses for the mane, fetlocks and tails, be sure to use the Horse fit IN THIS PRODUCT'S folder to re-fit to the base Horse. Each product has Horse fits, but they are unique to that product. This is also the case for any Unicorn Fits.

2-Horse Tail, Short Mane, and Unicorn Tail Appear dark in preview, due to glossy texture applied to texture node. This will not affect renders.

3-Short Tail appears long in preview due to transparency falloff. This will not affect renders.

Poser 11 SuperFly: If you use CPU Rendering or the included CPU rendering presets, you will need to adjust the Min & Max Transparent Bounces (under the Options panel) to at least 10 and 20 respectively. You may need higher settings, depending on the CPU. This will fix any clumpy textures on the hair parts.
