Anna's Horse Sculptures-update-November 29th 2022

OK, the photos are ready to show finally. It will be a lot so I will not post them all at once

I wanted to take the photos outside but the weather is changing every 5 minutes today so every time I tried to go outside it started to rain... That's why I decided for taking most of the photos on balcony

Beautifully painted ears!! seriously, I love it already.

Thank you Scott! I find the ears the cutest part of zebras in general

Oh, I was missing it! It is looking fabulous and it is a very brave decision from you to start a project like that. You surely don't remember but we talked about it already a long time ago.
I like that you decided the short neck option, actually that is a characteristic of this species and it accentuates the more robuste neck of this animal when compared with other zebra species.
Every details of a Grevy are different from other species, head, ears, body, tail, etc. Strips are just the most obvious and I believe slight differences are harder to get than obvious ones.
Figure is looking absolutly gorgeous and Harriet is making a Grevy's too! Hurray for millions of strips!

Thank you for your comment Roger!!!
Yes, I remember our conversation about Grevy's zebras. And you called it donkey with stripes Actually the idea of sculpting one of them came to my mind long ago, in the times when I just started sculpting figures 6 years ago. I talked about it also with Willy. But it seems I wasn't ready those times for the project like this. I'm happy I decided to wait.

Thank you Noemi!!!!

Beautiful!!!!

She looks amazing - wow those stripes!!

OMG! That model is amazing! what a paint job! congratulations Anna

She is absolutely gorgeous. She has phenomenal anatomy, but still maintains your elegant style.  Congratulations

Holy moly!! like Susanne would say!
It's incredible! Fantastic! Beautiful! Absolutely gorgeous paint job! I love it!

Wooah! With the first photo I actually spent some time trying to figure out whether I was looking at a photo of a real zebra or a model zebra!
Amazing work

Yes, I called it donkey with strips. Remember that I love donkeys so it is a praise from me.
The result after painted is just fabulous, it is hard to think how could it be better? This is the kind of figures that hurts not being possible to get but there is a lot of things in our lifes where it happens and we should learn to live with it.
Well, it is already for me a big joy to see that your talent seems not having limits, as I told, this figure has everything to be a very hard project and you managed it with distinction. Congratulations!

Wow this is an awesome wonderfull sculpture! Details are perfect as is the general anatome
I'm sure of it now: You have an animal shrink machine at your home.

Woah! Amazing work Ana! I'm impressed!

I can't talk anymore… Speechless!!! What an amazing piece of art you created!!! Wonderful!!!

She is beautiful, Anna--so detailed and realistic looking. perfection. Let me know when I can adopt a few
