A little sculpture just completed from the "Kids Horse" series.  This little mare means business*

 

Last looks before the sculpture was buffed*

 

Sometimes it is just easier to completely re~sculpt the face*

 

Everything is in place

 

 Details added under chin/jaw/lower lip

 



The tiny braids add to the little child interpretation.  To scale photo

Thank You so much for the Wonderful learning media.

 

Next I will put together a post of how Skip was created.......

  

 

 

 

 

~Bandit Checking For Change~

After checking for changes or any anomalies after the second coat of primer on the sculpture called Bandit we found there were a few areas that still could use some attention, mainly around the eye.  The penny is to give viewers an idea of size. 

 

 

 

Bandit measures in size 4"x 3.5"ish

 

*Up Yours*

Up your nose Vista*

Started nit picking more detail and preparing Vista (sculpture) for priming.  With one light coat of Painters Touch primer it was found that some more light sanding with 400+ grain sanding sponge would do the trick.

measures in size 4"x 3 1/2" ish

 

 

Getting there....

 



~Beautiful Vista~

Wow*, Been working on this tiny guy for some time.  Vistas face has been completely re-sculpted, details like forehead, new ears, eyes & area, cheeks, nose, muzzle, lips, jaw, nasal bridge, mouth muscling, & then there is the whole new neck. Just finishing up some super fine sanding & prim, Vista is so close to being ready for paint.

the tiny sculpture measures 4"x 3.5" ish

 

~Skips Photo Journal~

Completed photos of Skip - ready to paint*

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Skip is in the process of being painted, upon completion I will provide a "Start To Finish" photo Journal as will. :)

 

Thank You for Looking*

 

 

 

 

 

The Perfect Kids Horse

For the longest time we have been looking for that "Perfect Kids Horse" and to no avail.  So out of crazy humor and artistic therapy I have created a small sculpture to reflect what was encountered.

 

My Son & I humorously refer to this sculpture as "Bandit".

 

This sculpt is nearly complete.  Started with the fine detail.  3"x4"ish in size
