Ever since Valkyrie was teased before the Marvel Infinite transition, I knew I had to give her a flying horse to ride. Technically, Aragorn is not a pegasus - he is a genetically modified horse. Dane Whitman's uncle, the first Black Knight, was a villain who was also an expert at genetic manipulation. He genetically modified a horse to have wings and to fly. The criminal Black Knight's horse (the original flying horse) mutated further into Hellhorse and became the mount of Deathknight. I guess there's just no reforming an evil horse.

Dane Whitman used the process to create a second flying horse. Black Knight left Aragorn in the care of Valkyrie while he moved temporarily to live in the Middle Ages, but the companionship of Aragorn and Valkyrie ended up being permanent.

Aragorn's recipe is simple - the World Peacekeepers brown horse, repainted (available at Big Lots now in my area) and Angel wings. These are the 6-pack Angel wings repainted to match the horse.

Duplicolor took care of the brown, but I added shadings and some grays because no horse is truly white - and this is a warhorse, not a show horse.

Also, if you are a fan of creatures, you will find a Valinor if you look at my past customs.

Thanks, I did this one and another in the "Ultimates" style awhile back myself. Will definitely check out your Valinor!

Who makes that vinyl paint--can I get it at Hobby Lobby or is it a special order type thing?

It is primarily an automotive item - it is used in car restoration for seats and trim. You can find it at places like Autozone, but I just order mine off Amazon - it is a Prime item.
