Horse: finally done!

Well, I finally finish my sculpt! Woah, it took forever to finish, I have soooo many things to study!

I´m sorry about the photo quality, it´s getting dark now and I´m not a good photographer xD I promise I will update better pics tomorrow, also with Schleich size comparison.

It looks unfinished, I know. I´m not going to paint this one, because I´m going to do resin figurines :)

He's absolutely stunning Sylvia - he's amazing!

Fantastic work Sylvia, something different from usual! Never saw a figure in this pose. But I have a friend that saw a horse in a similar pose... he told me it when I was visiting him at the hospital!

Great work Sylvia! Congratulations! And what a dynamic pose!

Thank you my friends!

Roger, I´ve seen and I have ridden horses in that pose xD Uh, so scary!

It is wonderful Sylvia! It looks terrific!
Only one small question: Shouldn't the tail be fluffier?

That is just SO impressive ! Stunning
And beautyful, and dynamic and wonderful

I love it

No wonder it took you a long time to make, it is an art that it can ballance

Many years ago when I was a teenager I tried to ride a horse in that pose. I fell of, and the stupid beast kicked me on the throat
It was a small miracle that it did not kill me, but I could not speak for weeks after
The horse was in a riding school, and they had to get rid of it, - it was dangerous.
A few days later it almost killed another girl

This is beautiful! Thanks for showing!

Wildheart, mane and tail will have real hair :)

Susanne, what a story! O.o I´m glad you didn´t suffer much damage, but I´m sorry about the other girls. That´s impressive...


Well, new pics!

The horse was going to be a gelding but at the last minute I decided he was going to be a stallion. Now he´s diving in a silicone mold... I only hope he won´t get destroyed! Wish me luck!

Good luck !!!!!

Sylvia, it's beautiful!!! :)

Thank you ^^
(edited: photo fixed) You can see it bigger here: http://sylobe.deviantart.com/art/Escultura-sin-titulo-214599490

I loved to know that you spent a lot of time thinking in a detail!
Also good luck from me! :)

Wonderful Sylvia What a stunning model, I can't wait to see him with hairs and paints

Hope he comes out ok!

Gorgeous!

Thanks a lot my friends!

Roger, in fact I didn´t spent so much time think in "that" detail. Until the last moment it was decided to be a gelding, but then I changed my opinion suddenly :)

I´m going out of the city on the weekend, so I will know about the results sunday night. I can´t wait! ^^

U-oh!

I´m having lots of difficulties with my resin copies... The silicon mold is OK, but not the copies! The resin goes everywhere, with bubbles... First copy was a whole disaster, without hands and full of little bubbles in all his surface! The second one is a bit better, I will have to fix some little bubbles and the very thin base I got, but I think it´s quite acceptable.

Soooo I was planning to sell some copies, but I think I will only sell one or two of them. I don´t think I will do more... Well, I´ll decide when I run out of resin. Not decided yet.

Pics tomorrow, I´m very tired now...

Silvia, first of all a really nice figure, and lloks very difficult to sculpt! congratulations for that!

Second: it's normal to have some problems with the copies. I have not a vacuum tank (are too expensive) so sometimes I have bubles in the surfaces of my animals (well, my rhinos and I hope in my wildebeest soon). I gave some of that copies to my son for playing, or I used for painting test.

I will send you a PM probably tomorrow, with some tips. And of course in Spanish, will be more easy to me XD

Yeah, for me will also be easier ^^ Thank you!

Don't worry Sylvia, You will have good copies after more trials surely! I had many wrong trials too, my first mold was disaster and first copies not good too. I understand what You feel, but with some tips from Joan You will have great effects soon Good luck!

oh dear, I'm sorry Sylvia - that must have been so disappointing for you that makes me scared to make moulds too

Thank you my friends, I will try to do few more copies and I´ll tell you how they went.

He seems to be so energetic!
Nice work.
