Beatrice the Border Leicester sheep in scale 1:12 :-)

Wonderful figure once finished and interesting way to show us all the details !

Wow Ana! You are very talented! Congratulations on such a beautiful realistic sculpt.

Thank you very much for so nice comments Florian, Andreas, Miguel and Andrea

Andrea, welcome to the forum!

Here, I have some more photos of this model It's finished. I consider making a mould and copies because I would really like to paint at least two color versions or more

Looks great Anna

Fantastic model Anna! Love the details in the wool, so soft looking :3

Mumbles something about this sheep and her Border Collies XD XD

There is really a feeling with this model ! I like it a lot Great details

Thankyou for the welcome Ana!

I love how you have captured the whole 'essence' of the sheep. You have given it 'life'. Wow If money was no problem I would order one from you! You have a gift to be able to create sculptures so beautifully!

Welcome here :)

I am using the chance to revisit some topics that I was missing during these days and here is a good example of how pleasant it is. The final result is perfect. I won't say that this breed of sheep may result commercially as a toy figure but the work you performed on it is precious! It is probably the most wonderful sheep sculpture I've ever seen.

I agree with Rogério

Ana, could you show a pic with something we already know to feel the size?

Thanks so much for all nice comments Steve, Karin, Florian, Andrea, Roger and Christophe!
Yes, I'll try to add some more pictures for scale. The sheep is a bit bigger than usual Schleich sheep for example.

The mould for the sheep is ready and I have the first copy!
Now I'm looking for a name for this model, would like it to start with letter "B" can you help, friends?

Ohhhh! She is SO wonderful

Hmmm. Some very feeble attempts at name suggestions : Bordia, Brittany, Bessie....

I think it's a fabulous model and I can't wait to see it painted!!

Thank you so much, Susanne and Jason!

About the name for this model, I still haven't decided, will try to choose something later today The name Brittany sounds good to me, maybe this, or Brigitte? hmmm, I'll think yet

That's a precious sculpture, Ana! It is really wonderful and how nice is that picture with that amazing horse.
My suggestion for a name goes to Brigid

I think she's absolutely beautiful and feels like a Beatrice.

Thank you so much, Roger and Pipsxlch!
I had really hard time choosing! I was considering many ideas over and over again but finally, she has a name, and it is Beatrice! It seems to fit the model in some way
Roger, it was great to learn about this Irish goddess Brigid
Thank you again for the help!

Here, a new photo of sheep Beatrice
