Star Spangled Banner Schleich custom

I wanted to give this guy his own topic.

This is a project I started December 2012 (!!!!) and finished yesterday. I couldn't sleep, had too much trouble on my head and I figured it would be great if I finally finished this guy, so that's what I did.
It's not perfect, I got tired of the model since he already took a lot of my work and hours and I just wanted to be done with it.

I don't know what to do with the guy yet, he was made for my ex, when we were still together, but not sure what to do with him now ....

It was HARD to make this one, the stars .... Were ... Killing me

He looks great! Really nice work!

Well, that sure is something different.
The little detailed stars look great and you can tell they took a lot of effort to paint.
And I like the way you made the red stripes go all the way up to the head with a natural looking flow, following the horse's curves.
Nice job!

Nice

Fantastic repaint, - wonderful backgound too

What to do with him ? Of course you want to keep him

This guy deserves his own topic indeed! What an interesting idea - and fantastic result! You really did a great job, Damon. Oh, so bad - but I'm sure if you list him on Ebay someone will buy it right away
Though I would keep him..

What a lovely repaint you've created Damon!

He is beautiful! Really nice
