Make: Breyer Scale: Stablemate Mold: Morgan (G2) Color: Green-Black-Gold Faux-Stone Gallery: Other Color Medium: Acrylics, Liquitex Phthalocyanine Green Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This odd little guy was an attempt to recreate the look of Gold Digger, except starting from a primed body instead of using the original finish. As you can see, it didn’t work as well as intended, but I still think it looks pretty cool (and I used the same technique on Blaustein later). (more…)
Make: Breyer Scale: Stablemate Mold: Morgan (G2) Color: Bay Brindle Gallery: Other Color Medium: Acrylics Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little guy was a custom order for a color I had never painted before… and to be fair I’m not sure that he really counts as having painted one now. *pokes horse* I ended up with something that looks a little too much like a tiger and not enough like an actual brindle pattern. (more…)
Make: Breyer Scale: Stablemate Mold: Morgan (G2) Color: Metallic Blue Tobiano Gallery: Tobiano Medium: Acrylics Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little guy was one of my favorite fantasy customs, both in terms of overall color and name. I was looking for a sky-themed name to match his white a blue coloring and ‘Lo Flyby’ popped into my head as I pondered random Top Gun references. (more…)
Make: Breyer Scale: Stablemate Mold: Morgan (G2) Color: Gray Gallery: Dilutes Medium: Acrylics and Embroidery Floss Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
Storm was my first, but not last, attempt at hairing a model using embroidery floss. As you can see, I didn’t paint the floss like I did with the unicorns, but instead tried to use the original colors. It was sort of a hit-or-miss result. (more…)
Make: Breyer Scale: Stablemate Mold: Morgan (G2) Color: Dark Bay Gallery: Bay Medium: Acrylics Status: Painted 2003 and Sold July 2003
I’m sure there’s a perfectly good reason why I took sales photos of this guy without having his eyes finished… but darned if I can think of what is was. *pokes horse* (more…)
Make: Breyer Scale: Stablemate Mold: Morgan (G2) Color: Dappled Yellow-gold Bay Medium: Acrylics Gallery: Other Color Status: Painted 2005 and Sold Aug 2005
This little guy was quite an adventure to paint. The Gold interacted very oddly with the yellow, giving it an almost burnished look. I was expecting the contrast between the two colors to be starker, but it worked out wonderfully. (more…)
Make: Breyer Scale: Stablemate Mold: Morgan (G2) Color: Sabino Tovero (Tobiano + Overo) Gallery: Other Medium: Acrylics Status: Painted 200? and Sold
I am pretty sure this guy couldn’t exist in nature, but I wanted to see if I could fit every non-appaloosa white pattern onto one horse. I was tempted to list him in the fantasy section, but he’s theoretically possible– unlike a green appaloosa. (more…)
Make: Breyer Scale: Stablemate Mold: Morgan (G2) Color: Black Chestnut Gallery: Chestnut Medium: Acrylics Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
Nachtkatze should translate into Night Cat, if Bablefish’s German is to be believed. Why I seem to have developed and addiction to naming models in languages I don’t speak is beyond me… but it sure is fun! (more…)
