This ones amazing! I love him! You've improved so much since I last saw ur horses. I also fell in love with the leopard gelding. Such a realistic looking pattern and it really suits him. I need to get my hands on one of those bodies and make a custom out of him

youre so good

OMG.... Jonas! you are back !
OMG nog way i can not believe this ! I'm so happy!
Thank you for all the nice words again (everybody)

I hae finished an other horse i started this year (in februari)
I had to be my second horse after Rakker, Her name was INKA.
But i coulnd't finish it for some reason..
Then i started to try pastel afcourse like i did in Buck.
so i give it a try on the model and it came out perfect
Her she is in real life:
She was my horse for 4 years, i rode dressage competitions with her.
We where not the best team out there but we had fun day's;
riding like a cowboy with not extra straps as you can see in the picture.
But it is also the only horse a could canter without bridle and sadle when my hands lose in the wind!
After 3 years of intense riding she started she seriously started to cough. also she started becoming more cripple on het hind legs. Finally we decided to go to the vet and get her fully checked. The outcame waas more serous then we had eer touhgt; chronic bronchitis, loose bone pieces in her hind leg and ' kissing spines '. We tride every thing in our power to make her as comfortable as we could. With some medicine her crippele walk would disapear, but the coughing got worse. I disided that wit 20 years of age (being a sporthorse all her life) she could have her last years spending with us on the green fields... But her last winter was her worst ever, she just could not breath and she sufferd. That summer she felt better and we gave her her last summer full of happiness and disided, that she dind't had to go true such a winter again and we put her to sliep at the end of summer. i remember it as if it was yesterday but now it is almost 8 years ago!
'Time flies' we say in the Netherlands... But it stood still for a minute when i cantered with Inka,

I tride to make a nice little braid and knots, like we jused to do before a comeptition.
The neck i tink i not that great because of the lines,
i did not make that as good as i hopes it would be but he
And her butt i trided to make bigger is also not very nice because you can see the lines to well..
But for my second pastel horse i think the color looks great and that in only 7 layers!

Let me know what you think an any comment is welkom

Have a nive day/afternoon/evening/night

Aw I almost teared up reading this She must have been very special to you. I'm happy that she's in a better place now and that you still have all the beautiful memories of her. <3 letting go can be so hard.
You captured her beauty very beautifully on the custom. I love her neck that way she looks so noble and like she knows she's pretty :,) Also one thing I thought that was cool is that you added some more bum for her xD Little details can really make a great difference. I am curious to know what kind of clay you're using Atm? Plus glad you're enjoying the pastels - they can give you so much more options when reprinting horses! Just keep up the good work! :)

And thanks so much for your lovely words! <3 :,3 I've missed you!

Yes is was a hard dissition, i helpt my family was also strong!
Thank you Jonas, its a compliment you like her
Yeah she needed a round butt she had that, so the custom needed it
I was using that clay that hard in air, so you need to ceep it a little bit weath when you work with it.
I don't know the name in englisch, its very cheap in our toy stores. only down side i break very easy.
Yes the pastels are nice its very boring layer after layer but the results are amazing

I think we al missed you ... are you going to cust some horses your self maybe again?

I love when someone decides to make tribute in miniature shape of a beloved animal friend. Inka surely looks wonderful in your custom and despite all the difficulties it is always good to read that you preserve in your memories the good time you've spent with that beautiful horse.

You're welcome!
Oh I see. Some day maybe when you feel like investing to customizing you should order some Apoxie from MPV. ; ) Its real nice to work with and holds strong!
I know I still prefer acrylics over pastels but using both together you can have some nice looking ponies as well

Aw! Well yes I am at the moment expecting bodies from ppl. And I found a box of a few more at my parents house haha. Looks like after Xmas I'll be able to really start painting again! Cant wait!

Hello everybody!!!

Nice!! It is always interesting repainting other animals too! You did great!

Wow Great repaints !
I really really like the dogs and the mini roan horse !

Keep working

Thank you all
I love showing you what i made
And i really love to read the comments!
nobody will be so kind about what i do except for my lovely boy friend and the lovely sts poeple !

Those dogs...

I'm stil working on horses... and going to school and riding my horse and et healthy and exsurcise in the jim and giving my other pets attention and also somewhere in between give my boy friend some attention to! hahaha
But i find some thime to create something that came to my in a dream years ago. And with kings day i find the model that really suited this amagination.
So here he is the spirit cat, he can see into you past, present and future with his 3 tails and he is a real preditor among the bayala relms. he really like to be in presens of a rider who also like to be a bit on the dark end. Most weird about him is that he doen't make any sound, he only shows how he feels by bodylanguage

Have a great day, evening, night

I just LOVE that tiger

And your pictures tell a whole story , - I hope, Bilara came in time to save the blossom deer

Thankyou for sharing, - keep up this wonderful fantasy of yours, in spite of being so busy

Wow, what a fantastic creature! You have a wonderful imagination! I love it! Really cool colours, expression and a completely unique idea, amazing! Maybe, in future, if you have some more free time,  you can also make some drawings and write a short story about it too? It's such a nice creature, why not create make more about it? I like it a lot more than Schleich's Bayala ideas, to be honest

By the way, what figure did it start as?

Thank you both
I maybe will draw his story!
But i will not be a sugar sweet one because he is a bit on the evil side.
he has only a little bit of respect for horses becase they are bigger and he is then a scarady cat MOehahaha
And i'm really sorry but he blossum dear was his lunch !

i really want to make more of my own fantasy animals, i have started 2 more ^^
One is inspired of a animal that i really really like but i blew the ''bayala'' all over it;
little hint; its a very tall animal.
The other one will be a see creature but actually not really a fish ore marinemammel
I really like that you like my tiger

And before i forget: It was a really ugly (sorry but it was) old plastic china model. with hardly any paint on his body.
His theet where all over the place in his mouth and very stump so i gave him new one
(i can not find i picture on the internet of the model he was, and i forgot to take one (stupid))

Great last day of the weekeind every body

I really enjoyed your Spirit Cat, and the story behind him! Telling a story with him is a great idea, and I too would like to know more of him and your other fantasy creations.

Waiting to see the sea creature...

I finised my seacreature;
it is called a swimshell, like what it is a swimming shell,
it is far form being a turlte because of the featered tail! Somewhere in between the evolution of the land animals this one thougt; i could better be in the sea, its warm and there is planty of food! Like a pingquin the bodemside is light and the upper side is very dark. this is to not be eaten by predators.
The simshell eats seasnails primary, and thats why they can be a bit toxic if you really eat them.
Because of the toxins in the seasnails.
The blue eyes are a trademark because the colors and the top shel can be different.

Nex time is will be at least one horse again  

I LOVE your Swimshell

I have been very buzzy with a lot of things at the moment but a finished 3 horses in the vacation.
Every summervacation i need to do a lot of school work also (Grrrr).
But now i can present my latest;

First up:
Blue roan mare, i'm scared, please don't kick me in the face!
This is not her name but i don't have a name for her yet;
Maybe somebody here has a nice name for her?
I thin she turned out great!
She also is my forst totally mixed medium horse!
Not only the white and the eyes are done in acrilycpaint.

Her original is the haflinger mare with all the braids.
And i know her left front leg is not completly normal (a bit weird)
But i think her neck really looks nice for the dynamic and scared face.

Next up:
Repaint and custom couple, mare and foal brabander.
The mare is a blue roan (blauw schimmel) she is made after a horse i saw on the local horse market.
In the Neterlands there is a horse market every year in Voorschoten,
this years there where 71 horses (a record).
The foal is a color i wantes to do for a long thime on a foal

The mare is on the clydesdale mare and the foal is a mix of the older tinker foals his head and the body of the haflinger foal with a custom leg.

Hope you enjoyed, tips and pointers are always welkom.
Have a nice day

Oh lovely customs!
The Blue Roan's is wonderful. Don't care you don't like that leg.
It suits the expression on her face.
I can feel the fear.
Her name could be Despair.

The sleeping foal is also excellent.
I love her/him.
And the paint job on its mommy.

Bravo!

Your last custom horses are all wonderful, of course and that is, afterall, the subject of this topic. Though, I have to notice the swimshell as something quite unusual and the final result is a very intriguing and interesting piece. Back to your horses, your Despair has something special, you were fortunate with its expression. I am sure next time I see that figure, I won't forget where I've seen it before.

Thank you so much both of you bloodrayne and roger

Oh gosh, that mare and foal are so adorable!
And I love the turtle! <3 You are very creative, so nice to see all your creations

I like the Noriker!! Great matching color to this drafter!

Thank you both
Nice to see everybody still is active on sts :)

Sow i mde some more animals again
Still making a lot of projects at the same time and that makes them go not as fast
as if i was working on one at the time but i'm i like it this way :)

First up my new foal, i'm really trying new colors and new posses and stuf thats dirrent.
The last laying fal i made the eyes more closed so it looked like it was a bit sleepy, this foal i tryde 3 different things;
I made his right eye closed, i made it a dirrent pose than just standing and i tryde to paint is like is was changing color.
The color changing paintjob was most challancing (sorry if there are typo's there).

The picture i used as a reference for the color. i really struggled with the orangy/yellowy color.

Next up an other herd of mini mini's; 3 times this time, and all a bit different;
A percheron, a shire and a mustang stallion

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
It is a red rainbow boa, one of the species i used to work with. Very nive snakes and i think the best color for a snake ever!
The red can variate from light orange, to brown to very vibrant red. They al have a green/purple shiny shimmering skin.
Ofcurse i do not have the right shine to aply but the patern and circles are also very nice.
I will make note'the head is very bolbus this is not good, the real snakes so not have this anromus bolbus heads.
I will make another one in the future with a nice head
this one is called key after the snake my second favorite at work.

Hope you enjoyed , all tips are welkom, have a nice day  

Great horses !! But the snake over-shines everything ! What a beauty

Sow i made some newby's again
First up an old one but with a new stwist;
In de old foto's you can see the mane and tail made out of glue;
And the body almost toally blue.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
With my last moving (i moed 5 times in 5 years) this horse just had a beating.
The glue yellowed and broke of and he nilpolish i used also yellow up and craecked on sides.
So i made her white again and still trying to find a way to make her look like ice haha.
The mane and tail are now plastic that turned oud great

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Then something i wanted to make for a long long loooooong time.
I tryde it on 4 different ways to make it what it is today hahaha they final result;
My first birdhorse the great (ore red) flamingo;
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
I really did some work years ago with my old dry air clay,
but when i got the 2 component super sculpy clay e really did get the result u was going for.
I put the ''feathers'' on the table to dry ans then put then on the ''whings'' with more clay.
There are many thing i would have done dirrent; like the way i attached the feathers.
But hey i have learned a lot of this horse
Why i said first bird horse? I'm already started on 2 others .
Also this is my forst time i worked a bit with a airbrush you can see it on the feathers.
i will try again with the airbrush soon but i think it is really hard,
aspesially with the paint and thinning it with whater.

And then my latest bayala self created creature;
This is an forest elder ''WOCA'' sort voor woodcat , he is an old spirit that protects the forest from harm.
He will not intervine with the normal circle of life in the woods but will ceep evil and distruction by man away. He does this with his psychic powers and nobody ever sees him.
He is very well camoflaged for being do large. Every forest has his own Woca, and they try to put as many thing of the surroudings on there body for camo as possible.

the only thing bothering me is the tail,
at first i wanted to give it a snake pattern but then i wanted to do a fine pattern with leaves,,,
know i don't know what i want haha.
maybe some of you know what i can do what would look cool ?

Thanks for watching again and have a nice day/evening/ night

WOW !!! Your fantasy really flourishes

I love all the materials and colours and shapes you use

All three are marvellous, surprising, unsusual and well made , - most of all, I can't stop looking at the WOKA with moss on his back and paws

You are surely living in a surprising and fantastic world! I show a lot of talent and immagination. I find the last work superb, at least for my personal taste.

Great and very interesting new works! Your fantasy creatures are especially wonderful!
I think the world would need a lot of WOCA's to protect in every forest those times. I love the idea and the looks of this creature, beautiful

Thank you all so much you make me blush

The flamingo horse does really look like a flamingo! It´s stunning. And the other 2 customs are also really interesting!

Sow i have got the time to finish a lot of horses on my desk,
some standing there for ever (oldest for 4 years!) others jused started past month.
I wanted to fisnish them before end of the years because i think they deserved it.

I tryde to make a winter scene inside because we had a lot of snow past week.

Its funny i have never had so many project done in one year!

Also i think everybody can gues my favorite horse color be know
Again a blue roan and a black and white one hahahaha

I tryde some new things again that not all worked out well in the end, but again i learned from them

First up:
the cutest, Cuty pie, appaloossa mini foal omg this one is so cute i'm still impressed with myself.
I think this ones should be a stallion because of his bolt bucking, but still need a name like cuty pie!
hahaha don't know if he likes it
but i really think he is the essence of being cute without being overly girly and ugly cute

His original is the standig brown and white foal.
I altered his ears, all four legs and he has a complete new tail, and a complet new neck and mane.

His pedistole is from warhammer 40k, this is a army that you can make out ot plastic components.
My boyfriend has 3! army now and a lot of spare stuff like these likke pedistols. You can buy them loos on the warhammer 40k official website but there are stores all over the world so when you want them they are maybe closer then the internet in stores.
