My current project

This one is my first project with a Breyer horse. I started it at the end of November, but I´ve been too busy with my exams so I couldn´t work on it. But finally I finished sculpting, and I hope I will be able to start painting her tomorrow! She will be my experiment horse, because I´ll put natural hair for mane and tail, and I´ll try my new airbrush (I got it as a Christmas present and it´s my very first airbrush!)

Sooooo this is the victim (photo was not taken by me, I don´t know where is my own photo xD), Breyer Classic 00641:

Not good photos, I know, but they were taken with my mobile phone xD

Anyway, this mare is going to be specific breed. I´m sure that some people here could tell me what breed! (She will be dark bay tobiano, so think about breeds which can have pinto patterns )

Hope you like my work in pogress ^^

Repainting a Breyer??? Waw!!!
I don't understand nothing of horses but tell me which breeds fit in this morphology?

Look at the ears

Lovely

ADORABLE!

Wow, you're doing an amazing job!

Hmmm, the ears look a bit Arab, but they are never paint, and she is a bit more heavy, - could it be a Pure Bred Spanish horse ?

Marwari ?

Looking very good :)
I've just taken a dremel to my first Breyer victim

It´s a Marwari ^^ Arabs have straight ears, and PREs don´t have paint patterns

I used a dremel too, my first time using it O.o

Now she has been painted with the first coat of color!

Great job, can't wait to see her done! I just love it when people do something creative with these old molds.

The mare has the first color coat! In this collage you can also see my own model horse. Those pen markings were done by me xD I forgot to take some photos before marking him...

So you're actually going to hair her then? Wow!
Great job!

Yes, I´m going to use lamb and goat baby (do you have any word for goat babies?) hair :)

Congratulation, your work is really impressive.

I've got a word for goat baby, it is "chevreau", unfortunately it is French

A goat baby is called a "Kid" in English.
