Thinking in color

Terrang is still in progress, he's at a hard to photograph (cough*ugly*cough) stage so I'm going to wait to update on him for a few more days. 

Instead I'm going to photospam you guys with pretty ponies.  I've been tossing around a bunch of colors for various resins and I think I've finally decided on something for everyone.  First up is Ahzam.  He is so purdy.

Well he finally spoke up and told me what color he wants to be.  A bloody shoulder grey with some dapples and fleabites.  I think I'm going to aim a little more towards Showkayce than the guy pictured below. I'm already anticipating him talking a while to finish.  Lol.Photobucket

This is a guy I've had sitting around for a few months and me hee-ing and haw-ing about color.  He's big, he's bad, and he bit me when I pulled him out of the box.

Look at those teeth, Debbi really outdid herself on this guy.  As for color, I finally settled on a silver bay roan with minimal white.  Now I just need to find the genetics to go with it.

Next is Sarah Rose's incredible Reiner.

This guy has had a color chosen for him the minute I saw the clay sculpture on Sarah's website.  He is going to be a protrait of a horse that I have in training.  Chief is the cutie on the right.  The photobombing mare on the left is mine of course.

Last up for today is a model that just came in the mail this morning and I am thrilled with her.  This is another gorgeous model by Debbi Lermond, her new mare Sheba's Jewel.  Lordy is she pretty, I need some tack to go with her for sure.

Color wise I want her to be a luscious chocolate flaxen liver chestnut.  I just can't decide if I'm going to paint her myself or send her out.  Wouldn't Mindy Berg just do an awesome job on her?  *wink*

And now I have to go work on Terrang.  I'm determined to have him painted and up for sale before the end of March!

Enter Sandman

Hello?  I said enter Sandman!  I would like to go to sleep please!  Bah you are no help at all.  In lieu of sleep I've been working on a new face in the studio.  Say hi buddy.

Photobucket

Innit he sweet.  I'll give a full update on the little man tomorrow.  Err...later today.  Eventually.  XD

What was that?  Yes, I am going to pretend that the 7 month hiatus I went on never happened.  Mostly becuase I wish that those months never happend, but maybe I'll talk about that later.
