I think it´s called so in English... Cape Mountain zebra.Equus zebra zebra. The shape of the zebra does not fit the Mountain Zebra Species ! Aspect has only to Plains Zebra , I'm disappointed!, It has no shape Hartmanns or Cape Mountain Zebra .. I'm sorry, but really you made a mistake ... sorry ... Look at the shape of the ears Plains zebra and the Hartmanns or Cape Zebra, you see the difference in zebras ears and the shape of the bearing ?
Study books and photos, as species of zebra, not only differ stripe design ... ..sorry
Besides, if you mean the Cape Mountain Zebra, this species does not have such a large mane. I suspect that there You looking for modeling photo in Cape zebra, only to Hartmann's Zebra ... Look at the pictures on the internet, I really know from experience that the Cape species-very small mane, and you've done so much as it is seen in Hartmanns Mountain Zebra, messed up these two species ... Watch out for painting of stripes, because these two species are also somewhat different arrangement of stripes on the rump and back, I have to see the end result, because it is not, unfortunately, Equus zebra zebra ... I think that it certainly is a species: Equus Zebra Hartmannae.
Best, There´s no need of being so rude. I accept criticism but well said. Please, be a bit more polite nex time.
I see the ears are too short (working on them to fix them now) but I can´t see big differences on the anatomy. In fact I used photos as reference. I would have loved my zebras to be perfect, but the pose was really difficult and did my best. I tried to show the more angled Cape´s croup (Hartmann has a more round croup), also the Hartmann has a more donkey shaped forehead which I tried to avoid.

I have a bunch of ref photos from different angles in rorder to make them fit the specie I want, even for shapes and stripes. I'm not rude, but I was very nervous as someone like you who has a wonderful talent for carving makes this one, but a very big mistake. I would never do such sculpt a beautiful model of zebra, but advise you run on the large ears ! ..besides, I disagree with you that there is no significant difference in the anatomy of different species of zebra, each species has a very different shape of the ears, tail length and size of the mane Best, |

I think the writing style is cerebral enough admissible, and I see no reason to reproach me, criticism makes you better results. I hope to it will be large ears, well, the rest is great, ...I just do not fit in the this zebras ears. ... and I do not call the "D". |

| Sorry for the "D." Dorkan, that was just to write faster, not to offense You. I apologize if You felt bad with this. It's true the criticism is the good thing, and it's true it help in sculpting better. However I do feel it would be good if we don't use that much nerves in this discussion. I also don't like this " " emoticons used against my friends. This forum is, and please let it stay peaceful place, people can say a lot but the way they say it, is quite important. _________________ Anna Horse and Bird studio - Horse sculptures My model horse collection

| Ofcourse we care about details :) That´s why we customise our models or create new ones. You have the desire to improve in the future too. But I think the point is that Silvia has created a truly unique model of zebras, and few of us are focused mainly on the size of the ears.

| Dorkan, please, PLEASE, don´t write again in any of my sculptures. I don´t want your opinion. You talk like if you were an expert sculptor, and let me tell you my figurines were much better than your newest ones when I had been sculpting for only half a year. And yes, you´re rude, very rude. I think I have read enough from you now. Maybe you should tell your parents to teach you how to be polite.
Seriosly, I ask you not to give opinion about my figurines, drawings, sculptures and so on again unless you have something polite to say, even the criticism. It seems you only know how to give negative criticism instead of constructive one. Ask your parents to teach you the difference, too.
Oh, and I don´t carve. I sculpt. These are different things.

Thank you so much for the rest of you! The fixed ears are ready now so I will paint them during this week I hope :) Can´t wait to sit and start the paintjob ^^ _________________ Visit my collection gallery at http://sylobe.deviantart.com/gallery/26714361

This has gotten a bit out of hand. Whether or not you meant to be rude, you have indeed come across as rude. At this point, the most sensible and dignified course of action would be to stop commenting on her threads and move forward. No one will think ill of you for doing this; I think most of us would respect it. But ignoring her request, and commenting yet again, this seems like a bad idea. My suggestion is that you just erase your last comment and recuse yourself from this particular conversation. |

I have emailed Silvia my thoughts and I agree with you Scot(t), if her wish is for Dorkan not to comment then please respect her wishes. One thing to remember is that these figures were done for ME and I am the only one who has to be happy with them, to me they are fantastic sculptures and I am putting up a corner unit with 4 shelves for mini scenes of my favorite figures, these will have a shelf of their own. I love zebras, for those of you who know me or follow some of my posts know that I have a small herd of live plains zebra as "pets" and these two figures are so beautiful that I did not even notice the appearance was more like a plains zebra then a mountain zebra, the action and expression is what I see and the added dewlap and stripe pattern will identify them for any who wonder what species they represent! If you aren't happy with them that is too bad for you, don't look at them, they will soon be on my diorama for those of you who love them and want to see more pictures!!! |

| Thank you my friends! Tehy are on the paintint table now :) I´m sorry, but no, I´m not going to do copies of this figurine. It has lots of angles, surfaces, and tiny details I don´t want to ruin, my skills doing molds are not good enough for making a mold of this one. I really feel it´s too complicated for me. The antelope was much less difficult and I have my problems making the copies! So this figurine will be one of those famous OOAK _________________ Visit my collection gallery at http://sylobe.deviantart.com/gallery/26714361
