Official Sir Barton Model
I label him as a "minor customization" because his limbs and head required only minimal moving to get them where I wanted. Therefore he still has his original muscling, forelock and mane. He does have a new tail as 1) the model originally had a broken tail, and 2) Sir Barton naturally had a shorter, full tail. He will be available for sale following the painting stage (done in oils).
This pretty pony was done as a gift request for Christmas. Color photos will be posted following Christmas. He was a major customization and began as Breyer's Zippo Pine Bar. Listed below are the following customizations:
-Slight length added to face
- Head flexed at poll
- Neck raised slightly
- One shoulder dropped, the other brought forward
-All legs moved and bent at necessary joints
- Barrel and hind quarters sanded down to make model thinner, as well as add length to the gaskin
-Length added to front cannons
-New muscling in neck and quarters
- Angle of croup adjusted
-New forelock
-New mane
-New tail, set at appropriate heighth
-Ears reshaped and carved
-Hooves carved
Because certains parts of the process require a model to set for certains lengths of time, I can work on multiple models at one time. More info about the process, pricing, etc will be posted shortly. The holiday season creates such a rush and it's this time of year where I realize: sleep is over-rated and there aren't enough hours in the day!
