This is the Breyer Traditional scale "Proud Arabian Mare" mold. I had to repair a broken ear & straighten a crooked front leg. I then went on to do the usual prep work. This model had the worst seams I have dealt with so far! After removing them & the mold mark, I carved her ears, face, muzzle, nostrils, chin, jowl, bridle-path, hooves, heals, & frogs. I also re-defined details of the mold. Then I added chestnuts & sculpted all appropriate parts under her tail & an udder/teats, so she is truly realistic. I spent a lot of time sanding. This is my very first airbrushed model! She has many layers of increasingly darker shades of grey, building up to black. This gives her shading & depth. She has a white pastern with a natural/shell striped hoof. That & her star were both masked off before airbrushing & then painted by hand. All her hooves have a lighter growth band at the top. Her eyes are detailed & glossed, her nostrils & hooves are glossed as well. Matte finish. She was custom ordered by Nancy H. of Wisconsin. More pix , just click below...

This is a L.E. "Mosey-On" resin. I sanded, prepped, then used primer. This one was the fourth piece ordered/painted, so he is engraved with the numeral four. I airbrushed him to a shaded black (for depth), details hand-painted. He has a star that is partially covered by his forelock- note the wispy hairs that fall into it :o). His snip between his nostrils is grey & pink. He has three white socks with natural/shell mixed hooves, the solid leg has a brownish grey/dark mixed hoof. All hooves glossed for the showring. His soles & chestnuts are greyish brown. His nostrils have a touch of neutral pink. Of course the eyes are detailed, with brown iris rimmed in dark brown, black pupil. Finished with protective sealer, matte finish, eyes & nostrils glossed. Custom ordered by Beth B. of Missouri, who requested a black with star, snip, & three socks.

Note about Mosey-On orders: Due to the limited run of this resin & the fact that color possibilities are nearly endless for a stock-type horse, I do not plan on repeating colors I have already painted on him. I *may* make exceptions if Mosey is to be used as a portrait model of your real horse, but I won't guarantee it. Get your requests in quick if you wish to get a certain color! :o)
Also, in case you haven't been to Mosey-On's
page to read it by now :o), I will reiterate my policies here: None of Yvonne's resins are
to be changed in any way. Painted pieces must not be repainted, altered, etc. Unfinished
pieces (if any) must not be altered (no repositioning etc).
