A few treats to myself

Well after my airbrush and me actually having a physical fight on Sunday (the hose broke and put a nice dent in my leg) I decided it was time to do something about it.

So I purchased an ultrasonic cleaner (on advice from a friend) and also finally bought an Iwata airbrush! I had wanted one for a long time and this gave me the excuse needed to get one. The airbrush itself is actually fine (although I think it could do with a good clean) so I will be reporting back on Saturday to let you know how I got on!

Hopefully some videos as well :p

Rajah

This is the 2014 Breyer Collectors Club Exclusive (he is $70 for collectors club members with a $20 deposit)

 Rajah

I love him. He is really beautiful. I don't really like the mold but this colour is gorgeous.

The Plan for Next Weekend

So last weekend I got a load of models all prepped up:



I spy some new Schleichs :D

Anyway I have chosen 20 models to paint and here are some of the reference pictures I have chosen. I wanted to do some 'interesting' colours instead of just doing the same thing all the time.

None of these pictures of mine, all are stolen, I am a bad person.


This one has been started, it is a Giselle

This marking is going on a little Schleich foal:


I thought this roan was rather nice:


SPOTS :D


And more SPOTS :D


Well this is just too cute


Love the white markings on this guy:


A beautiful appy:


A brindle foal (I've never done a brindle before):


And finally another cute foal:


So there, some of the pictures I have chosen. Finished horses coming soon!

And to the owners of these pictures, I'm sorry I'm a horrible human being.

Amazing New Models

I am feeling very very spoiled this morning!

I received my Christmas and Birthday presents from my husband as well another little edition.

This is Jack Frost


This is Dangerous Mountain


Don John was a model that I had for years. But he got damaged when we moved. I finally got him repainted and went for an amazing brindle


And this is Sana Zahrah


On her stand


I also got a selection of Crystal Moon ponies that I'd bought a while and a commission that I had won.

OTT was my commission piece.


And Gingerbread Cookie


Stone Cold Sober sits on a shelf (or a box)


And Gargoyle who also sits on shelves


And the amazing Elvish Dream
