Shantis Dioramas....

Thank you so much!!
And yes, a laying stablemate mold would be a great idea if Breyer would make one!
I have another laying stablemate mare by another artist but she is still not painted.

I like making these little details for my photos, I am very happy you noticed them!

Two very beautiful models for a lovely picture!

That's stunning, what a beautiful setting for these two beautiful models!

Thank you so much!!

What a beautiful dapple grey And this resin is really lovely!
I love this little scene with another horse and fence, it's always such a pleasure to see photos of your miniature world

Thank you so much Anna!!

I've had this rather ugly bull by Schleich. Didn't like his factory paint at all. Now I like him better.

Indeed, the bull is much better now. I like the barbed wire in the diorama.

That's an amazing transformation, he looks much more realistic now with all those shades of brown that you've blended so well to look just like a real bull!

Thank you so much!!

very bucolic and beautiful scenery Shanti!

Thank you Caracal!

Something new on the Phoenix Ranch. A tiny stable for Stablemates. As a reference I took pictures of a beautiful stud located in southern Germany names Gestüt Amerang. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Oh, it's gorgeous! I really like that you've picked such an old fashioned and classy style to recreate. The hay feeders are so effective, you'd really mistake them for something professionally made in cast metal. And I love the texturing detail, like the scored lines to make the floor, and the knots painted on the wooden planks!

Thank you so much George!!!

Oh wow, this is so beautiful! What a dream of a stable

Amazing! The roof beams, the doors, the knots in the wood, the hinges, the light switch, the lights on the ceiling, ..., it all looks real. I can see that the animals are plastic, but without them, I'd have thought the stables were real. Absolutely incredible. What brand is the lying horse by the way?

It's really cool! And it looks so roomy despite the fact that is is really small. It is very nice to see wip pictures too! When I see a cool home made barn, I wish I could make one too, but never know where to start. Seeing some behind the scene pictures helps in making it seem less impossible to make a cool barn myself someday. so thank you so much for sharing!

How long did it take you to build it?

Thank you very much my friends, you are really kind! Enjoyed every comment you made on my stable!

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]: Thanks again! The lying down mare is a resin of a german artist Nicola Behr (https://nb-arts.de/modellfiguren.html or [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] Here site is not up to date but she is on FB too.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]: Thank you too! :) I think I started working on the stable in August but not every day. Not sure how long it took in the end. Felt like an eternity!

Thanks, lying horses are quite rare. I found it on the website, but wow, it's expensive!

I discovered I didn't have a nice fence as background in Schleich scale. So I made one these days. And repainted an old Schleich Shire foal. First foal of 2022! :)

Interesting job....

Beautiful gate! I love how you added a realistic "weathered" look

I love the tiny details on the fence and the little foal is lovely too

Stable, fences, foal !!

I can't express my admiration strongly enough.

And thankyou very much for letting us into the magic of The Wizard's Workshop

It looks so easy, which proves how fantasticly skilled you are

Very realistic!
