More Updates:

Well she's finished.  The Arabian mare.  I will come up with a name. I thought I already had but forgot it.  Oh well.  I have also set a deadline for offers on her.  Her ad is still up in MH$P and I will update that with her new pictures also.  The deadline for offers is January 30th, at 10 PM Eastern.  You may submit them through the ad in MH$P or here at the blog.

Ok, I have a commission I'm working on and I will include one of the real photos below also. But this is the model I'm trying to make work for this. It's a Breyer stock horse, and I've shaved down all those bulging muscles that just made it look like the hulk or something.  It's fine for a quarter horse, but not for the mare I'm using it for.  So she's been smoothed down and she's had her face lengthened, and her tail removed and her original neck removed.  I'm trying to see how her head will look and I'm honestly toying with the position of her neck a bit before committing to something permanent with the apoxie.  She's also had one of her ears twitched back to give more personality.  The middle picture is the pose I was thinking of going with, but I will have to check with the person having me do the model.  She's an appaloosa and the first pic below is the coloration I'm to paint the model in.  I can't wait to paint this one.  This looks like it's going to be fun.  I need to do some surgery on the feet because this mare was extremely club footed so I need to sculpt the feet to reflect that as well. 









Next is the Afghan Hound.  I've got a base coat on this guy now.


And finally I've been sanding down and smoothing and shaping the Grazing Mare's body and that hind leg. I think I'm close.  I've also been shaving down the neck some more too. This is her so far.
