In 2012, before CollectA decided to produce one, I made an African wild ass’s custom.

It was my last custom attempt and I never finished to paint him. Sleep  Three years have passed and I rediscovered my brushes.

I remembered then my old African wild ass but I didn’t find enough courage to change something. I guess it will stay unfinished but it isn’t a good reason to avoid a walkaround so…

Some pics now Wink

You wished it so much that you made your own wild ass, I know you love donkeys. I like very much the figure as it is and I am glad you decided to share it with us after allthis time. :)
Which mold have you used? Very Happy

That is a great customized figure, nice job.  I particularly like the face, the eyes are well done.

Was this the original zebra you used? If it is you did a lot of work to make it look good, the original zebra looks awful.

Thankyou for the info cheers

I so admire the people who can see exactly what to change on a model Applause
To me, it is only "something not quite right", but I can't see what Laughing

What is the material you use , please ?
