Trivia

 

Tall Dark & HandsomeJesse is basednamed after a real horse called Jesse, who is owned by Hannah's (AlaharranHonor) mom.mom, although the coat was not originally intended to be modelled on him, in fact the original file name for the coat was 12_m_talldarkhandsome.

Initially, the coat was supposed to be a Silver Grulla, but it turned out the reference was actually a clipped Friesian! The breed is very well known for becoming bleached through sun and the effect of sweat on a black coat, often resulting in widespread or localising fading to a dark bay colour, partially (see below) explaining the Jessie coat's striking rusty-tinged areas.

Jessie may be referred to as a Rusted Black by those familiar with SWEM's development, which is not a technical term but one Hannah coined due to the high content of iron in the water on their property that resulted in people and animals (Jessie included) developing an orange tinge to their hair! 

The TD&H coat has been a popular recurring mount of SWEM owner Hannah ("ValleyValley") and staff member / content creator Redzeal ("BoBo").
