Third Breyer Premier Model

The third Premier model of the year has been released.

The final model is a rather nice looking Appaloosa. I think he's rather sweet




Buuutt...I have a quibble. The Breyer Premier releases are suppose to be new molds. Now yes this is a new mold but this Appaloosa isn't the first to be announced. Back in August Breyer announced that they would be releasing a model of Harley D Zip. To be more precise, this model:



Ok so obviously the same mold. Which does have a bit of an 'off' note about it. But I guess as long as the Premier model is technically the first one released then there isn't really an issue. And anyway I think it makes a cute little pony type model :)

Canadian Mounted Police Horse

I love the little maple leaf around his neck!

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...
