No worries! Google translator may not be perfect but it's better than nothing. Okay, so you have $20 USD written above - if that's correct, then I can get one. And wow! I just checked the conversion rate on the Ruble - you'd almost be paying me to buy it at what it is now. Holy mackerel! :eek...

Hi Keith, This stood out to me. If you applied one thick coat of GW acrylics, then yes, they probably will blister as they would not be able to cure properly. There needs to be 2-3 coats of acrylic just like there would be with enamel paint. If I'm mis-reading this, I apologize but like I...

Ulrich makes absolutely lovely bases and is a dream to work with! He has really gone over and above the call of duty for me and I appreciate everything so very much! I highly recommend him!

Steve has some really fantastic bases!!! I really enjoyed working with him and he did a fantastic job! I highly recommend him.

Okay I think I have it now. The piece is 1/30 scale and designed to be a mannequin therefore the skeletal structure is not 100% accurate/perfect but more than enough to be a good mannequin. The bones you can put in position but they need to be glued together or secured in some fashion so the...

I'm having a hard time understanding but I'm hoping this will be a mannequin. If it is, I would definitely purchase one. As to scale, 1/32 would be much better as anything "off-scale" would be difficult to use and adapt. On the other hand, it is good to remember the artist will add muscling...

I specialize in equine finishwork. I'll drop you a PM with links. Cheers, Karrie

What an interesting pose for the horse! Nice floating trot! You say it's a conversion from the Eisembach horse, is that horse troting or in a different position? The horseman in me would rather see it supported on the hind leg, but I bet that would be quite difficult from a sculpting/molding...

Oh wow! That is sooo cool!:thumb: And I second Victor's question. Is it something that can be ordered?

I've heard to always make a waste mold in order to have at least one master and preferably two or three back-ups no matter what clay you use. Non-hardening clays will not survive shipment and the postal service can destroy anything if they put their minds to it. No matter how hard I try, I...

Here's something else you might find helpful. You've probably seen the Muybridge race horse film strip before. But this little piece of history revolutionized the way artists portrayed the galloping horse. Before the invention of the camera, people couldn't see the individual components...

Where and when can I get one and how much! lol! Beautiful work!

Hey Silviu what country are you in? If you really need something and it's not available in your country let me know and I'll see if I can get it and ship it to you. You could just paypal the money. It wouldn't be cost effective to get a lot of stuff that way but a few items here and there would...

I think he's looking fantastic! His chest does look narrow but it's hard to tell without a straight on shot from the front. Also a shot from above the horse looking straight down helps with width. The muscles look pretty good, maybe just a little smoothing. Look at those pics of Secretariat...

No worries Silviu! You're doing great on your first horse. I was just lucky enough to be around them most of my life and I learned a lot - still learning more too! But your situation with your reference picture makes a good point for folks. Look at multiple references first and compare them...

Hi Mike! Thank you! Yes, I have tried acrylics on larger scale horses. Even with retarder, the acrylics dry too quickly to get consistent blends. Smaller scale horses, I paint almost exclusively in acrylics. Like my Riders of Rohan for example. If I didn't have so many animals and all...

Okay your reference looks like part photograph and part artwork. Let me see if these help, you're horse is in a classing racing/running pose. So let's go with one of the greatest racehorses there ever was - Secretariat. Unfortunately, due to the photo quality it's difficult to see that...

Part 2 in the series of Painting Horses article. The original article can be found on CMON: Painting Horses 1: Bay Techniques and Colors. If you have not yet read that article, I would like to suggest that you do so first. It describes at length several techniques which I mention in this article...
