    The straps for the saddle, bridle, etc are cut at various widths from thin plastic. The holes are being drilled for anchoring pins for the horse bit and to the legs for mounting to base. Continue reading...

    New putty and sculpting a horses neck

    Dettingen Vignette painted!

    I finished it just before the Chicago Show. This piece seemed to drag on throughout the summer. Not my usual pace. Now I'm feeling rejuvenated and newly inspired. To bad we can't bottle this motivation, it would be great to Crack it open during the dog days. These pics were taken with my phone...

    Battle of Dettingen Vignette

    It's been a very unproductive summer... Well, compared with others. Not much motivation to stay at the workbench. Really starting to feel burn out. Not so much for the hobby overall, but perhaps what type of modeling. Original work has taken a huge bite out of my enthusiasm for creating. It's...
