Some New Tack

A selection of new tack pieces that I have completed. I didn't really have time to put them on horses and I have also lost my sticky wax so just off horse pictures I'm afraid

Pink flash bridle for Traditional scale models



With a diamonte browband




Black diamonte browband with a drop diamonte



Western breastplate with diamonte horse shoe shapes




Black leather Western bridle with zebra print detailing




Purple and gold browband with diamonte stars



Brown western bridle with star detailing, gold concho's and diamontes



Sebastian

When Clare first posted pictures of this boy completed I knew he had to come home with me. So when she put him up for sale I grabbed at the chance to have him come to live with me!

So meet CRS Sebastian aka Seb :)





Denim and Diamonds

This pair arrived today and I am so happy! I still can't quite believe that Breyer gave two instead of one for this vintage collection piece. And they are just beyond adorable. I love the mold, these are my first two on it and also my first two pieces in these colours.

So meet Denim and Diamonds!

Denim - aka CRS Tiffany




And Diamonds aka CRS Bonus Buy




And the pair together:




N'aww the cuteness is just too much to bare!

One of the best wedding presents I got

Clipped Models

I received a request from a non-hobbyist to do a portrait piece for their daughter. The body they supplied didn't quite fit the bill but that's what they wanted! The result is a clipped foal which is strangely appealing despite the lack of realism...

First up is the test piece (for those who aren't regular readers I do a test piece for all commissions to help ensure I get the colour perfect):






The above piece is for sale - please contact me for more information :)

And now for the main piece itself!







Distinctive scarring around the horses neck:



To give you an idea of the pattern:

Dionysus

Anyone for drunken orgies? No??? O well maybe Breyer didn't quite understand what the spiritual significance of their latest choice of deity was....or maybe they did....either way meet Dionysus who is rather gorgeous!
