My favorite color!

Oh nice! Your horses are always great, Vicki :).

Tell me, how are Breyer's re-sculpted? I know they're plastic, but other than that - ? Hollow? Solid?

To be honest, it looks like you put a layer of plaster over an original then smoothed it.

Nah, that's just the primer. The multiple-stroke blend of the roan looks cool and adds texture, but it's a bitch to do. Takes days. Literally.

Breyers are resculpted in a number of ways. The plastic can be heated in boiling water, then reformed. This is usually done to straighten or bend legs. A neck replace or tail replace, mane resculpt or heavy repair are done with epoxy putty. This is a little tricky because the plastic of the Breyer body is softer than the putty and it's a bitch to get a seamless joint. Stones are made of harder plastic and therefore easier to smooth down. I actually use files to remove seams, remove and shape the putty (when hard) and remove model numbers and logos, sandpaper to smooth and steel wool to finish. A dremel is used to sculpt or do detail work. Then I paint by hand. Some people use an airbrush.

Whoa! Very neat! I didn't know all that :). I think if I ever wanted something like this done, I'd mail it to you. But it'll take some time is all.

Still you did a great job. Looking forward to more of these guys.

Bertha is cute. I'm guessing she's a draft horse?

Clydesdale, hun. They're usually bay, but they can come in a number of colors.

Love love love the color for this girl. I'm also diggin' the new hair :3
