Wasn't really about my skills! I think I'm doing fine with repainting (of course you can always get better!)
I really love her, unfortunately she has to leave .... LOL! But she's going to get a good place, I'm sure!

Very Nice :)

No, fortunately she has to leave, it means that you are participating in an amusing initiative with other friends that share the same passion than you. Your girl will find a very good place and another figure, from a STS friend, will find a good way to you.
I am glad you are confident about your work, now I see you were more worried with the fact that it was just a repaint but LeeAnn already explained how everything works what is fine.

I can't wait!!! Today my victim arived. I can't wait to start painting!!!

Off to the shops with me to get some victims !!!

I Picked up 4 victim
hopefully they are enough as they are only little(baby animals)

Anne-Joke I love the blanket! What an interesting idea! wow!

Your works are looking really good!

I've ordered the victims and can't wait for them to arrive! Next, I will be ordering the paints. There are so many great colors to choose from. I will be painting several smallish mammals, including some babies.

I will contribute progress photos as soon as I can. I'm so slow compared to you all. Nice horses so far, and what an interesting dog figure.

I primered the doggie.
Here's a little sneak peak:

Very beautiful works everyone. I already cut my "victim" too, but I need to re sculpt it yet and then paint. Pose and colour already decided

I still need to paint mine. Colors decided. Hope they will turn out just like the picture I have in my head XD

I hope the same, Karin!
It is exciting that you and Anna have chosen the colors. I have as well. I thought that was a really fun part of this process! I also enjoyed deciding the figures and species, although I have been a bit indecisive with the latter.

Two of my figures have arrived! I was going to paint them as two juveniles of the same species. Now that I see them in person, one is smaller than the other. I guess one could be a runt or something, but I’d rather make them different.

I have chosen the second species but am having trouble deciding which figure will be which. I think the smaller figure should be the smaller species with the simpler fur pattern, which will be easier to paint on a smaller model. However, the features of the larger figure are probably more suitable for the smaller species, and vice versa. The paint will be here soon, so I need to make up my mind!

Anne-Joke, I love that photo! Thanks for the sneak peak of your doggie.
Do you think it’s fine to use white paint as a primer, or should I pick one up? I am using acrylics.
Decisions, Decisions.

Kayla, I would pick up a can of Krylon spray primer. The primer will ensure your paintwork lasts for years and the paint will pick up better. Depending on the color you're going to do, you can buy primer in all sorts of colors, but I typically use white.

The mare has got her base color almost done. Small fixing also to be done...
How are everyone else with their models? :)

I'm still fighting with mine But I hope I will start working on it soon.
