Why pictures are wonderful

I was so excited to have the seat on the blue Egyptian Dancing horse costume put together, I neglected to look at the size of the seat, so it's been changed, thank goodness for pictures! The pics also revealed that I knocked a stud or two off somehow... :0)

Off for more fun...

More fun stuff this week...

I must be on some kind of major roll this week, I have three more bodies prepped and ready to paint, along with some solid progress on an EDH costume I've had going for forever and a day!

The Egytian Dancing Horse costume is one of those things that once you sit down and get cracking on it, it can go fast! It's just wanting to sit and stare at 1.5 mm dots all day that gets me most of the time, they make my head hurt!

The bodies are for a SM painting contest I hope I will have time to get at least one of them done for, they include an OM SM Arabian stallion, an OM SM ASB made into a stallion, and an OM SM TB mare with new mane and tail and reworked ears and eyes. I'll post pics of them soon, for now I'll leave you with a pic of the EDH in progress! Off to bed! (so early for me!)

Progress, sweet progress...

Wheeee! Just finished a new piece last night- an AA Arabian Knight in Dapple Bay, and am getting closer on the other one, (that is trying to break me, but it won't work!) a leopard appy Oberon, both pieces are trade paintjobs in exchange for other minis! Once they are done, I will be once again painting for my own collection, which consist of a lot of nekkid bodies right now! It will also free me up to work on the final 4 commission tack pieces I have taken, which will be wonderful to have all done! (2 EDH costumes, a halter and a halter collar set!)

Finally finshed a few things...

Yay me! My favorite line from my daughter's favorite Disney Channel show (moms of 7-13 year olds should know the name of it! ) applies this week because I finally finished some work!

The move, and subsequent unpacking, followed by sick animals, surgery, and the total construction of a new backyard/pond/patio etc. (which is still not done, but it is getting closer...) stole a lot of my thunder for model related activities, and I am happy to say, I am back in the swing of things!

I managed to get a model painted up from my 'Paint a Mini, for a Mini' promotion, and the next two should be ready pretty soon! I'll have pics of them when they are done, for sure. I also completed a halter and Collar set that is part one of a commission, with the other set coming along well too!

I'll leave you with a few pics of the pieces, as it is 1:44am, ( me and my crazy hours) and I need to go to bed, tomorrow is going to be a looong day.

Cheers!

So we begin...

I'm writing this at an insane time of night, which tends to be pretty well the norm for me actually, but enough of that...

I started the blog to give an inside view as to what goes on in my day to day, and to have another way of keeping in touch with my clients. I hope I will provide something worthwhile to read from time to time, as well as some fun pictures of works in progress as well!

Thanks for stopping by!
