The weekend that was....

Another rather chaotic post about me basically getting very little done despite working on it all weekend...feel like I'm getting nowhere fast at the moment!

First up the dapple grey Hanoverian. After an hour of airbrushing I'm surprised I can still feel my fingers really...



Next up the BMECS donation piece, this is taking forever. I should have just painted something...all the legs are now done..



The Cremello Wintersong that is currently looking very white and not very pink. Pink is the next step though



And now for the packing. I'm more than half way but it doesn't really feel like it. Also I've run out of bubble wrap and I've only got one box left...not good...





The word organised chaos...or maybe just chaos comes to mind



Now onto the tack making. Actually got something finished which is good I guess...



This is the Western saddle. All the pieces are cut out and I've started to do the saddle horn



This is the grackle bridle. The cheek pieces are now complete and affixed to the bit and have buckles. Next step is to do the noseband and then we are nearly done!



This is one of the pieces that needs doing for BMECS. It's a white barrel racing bridle. The saddle to go with it is redy brown and the rest of the set is orange. So I decided that white with orange reins would look pretty cool



And my one completed piece. This is an English bridle ready for BMECS on the Schleich it will be shown on.

Kimbia

Kimbia is the first in the Breyer Collectors Club 'big cats' range. I think he's a bit of a Marmite model...I'm really not sure if I like him or not. I've entered for him so we will see...

The Weekend That Was

Well more the Sunday that was as I worked all day Saturday...

First up is packing for BMECS....haven't even managed two boxes...

The packing station


The wrapping up and cleaning station


Box number two in progress


This is a Western saddle that is currently in progress. It will be tan and black when finished. So far in the process of cutting it out, all dyed in a nice dark tan


This is surprisingly a grackle bridle. It will eventually be brown with silver hardware and a D-ring bit


This is a light dapple grey Hanoverian that is currently in progress as a commission piece


This boy is another commission piece, he will eventually be cremello


This will be my BMECS donation piece. A diamonte covered mini whinnie!

Frankel

Meant to do a post about this guy ages ago but didn't get round to it! Personally I would have preferred the Lonesome Glory mold but Smarty is OK too...

Indian Pony

Here's a nice one for you. I'm not much a fan of the mold but the colour is nice and it has feathers. Cat likes feathers
