Βουκέφαλος / Bucephalus
We got our first black paper horse! And we love it. The dark color just feels right on this beautiful menacing beast.
His name is Bucephalus, named after Alexander the Great’s horse – one of the most famous actual horses of antiquity! (And did you know that Alexander was supposedly a descendent of Achilles – a hero of the Trojan War?)
Bucephalus’ creator Pikey/Kyle followed our folding instructions and build him with black posterboard (by tracing the template form onto the board with a buck knife) and black electrical tape (to block out light coming through the cracks).

The real Bucephalus
Seleucus I coin depicting Bucephalus
A massive creature with a massive head, Bucephalus is described as having a black coat with a large white star on his brow. He is also supposed to have had a “wall”, or blue eye, and his breeding was that of the “best Thessalian strain.”
The mythic attributes of the animal are further reinforced by the Delphic Oracle, who claims that the destined king of the world will be the one who rides Bucephalus, a horse with the mark of the ox’s head on his haunch.

Just by forgetting that he him self is an artistically creating topic, does man live with just about any repose,

immediately ruined.
