This is only the second copy of this resin I've been able to paint. I may only get the chance to paint a couple more because of problems with the mold. I based the sculpture on my friend's Nubian, Spunky, who recently passed away.

WIP: Goat
Not an updated pic, because I want his owner to be surprised. The white on this guy has been...time consuming.

WIP: Doodlebug
I designed the graphics for a truck today. I assume that is of little interest to model horse people.
Instead, here's a photo of my Doodlebug. I keep changing my mind on what color to paint him.

New Blogging Goal
I've debating starting a Facebook page for me studio, but I thought it was touch redundant. Instead, I'm trying a new experiment. I'm going to try to post at least a picture a day of what I'm currently working on in the studio or of recent work I haven't shown before.
I work faster against a deadline, so I'm hoping a daily deadline might increase my output. Or it will suck up time I could be painting. Who knows.
A custom Nokota who's shipping out today to Lauren Tapley/Hoeffer:
The thing under his hoof is masking tape covering an acrylic rod. And yes, he's sitting on a chair. I've been toying with his base for a while and trying to push the limits of what will hold up a heavy drastic custom without being unstable.
This guys is a part of project "Desert Fish," which is top secret for now. Details to come when we're closer to Breyerfest.

Classic...
I wanted to sell this guy, now I can't bring myself to do it. Heather (who prepped him) has changed her tune, too and wants him to hang around--in her own collection, of course.
He's staying around now until Breyerwest or until one my menagerie inevitably needs vet care. Smart money is on the dogs who ate an entire chicken carcass.

His name is Picaresque. I was on a Decemberists kick this summer. I'm still in process of fussing with him, so he's not totally done.
