    WIP Critique Pegaso Roaming Knight

    Okay I need to get these posted and then crash so I can go to work tomorrow. Blech! First, I promised photos of the horse's mane since I went back and used pigments on it. So here they are: I personally like it better. :) Over on CMON, some friends and I were discussing...

    WIP Critique Pegaso Roaming Knight

    Finally! Mane and Tail Improvement Okay I got it now. On the mane and tail, I struggled with paint, glazes, and layering, I kept pushing and not getting what I wanted. So as I painted the other parts of the mane, primarily the forelock, it dawned on me I can still use my pastels and...

    For Sale Or Commission Resin Horses

    PS - and then I'm done, I promise! If anyone wants tack or something to add to these guys, I know how to make some of it and can put you in touch with a tack maker whose work has won national awards. Yes, these horses are tiny and as you can see these guys don't have any tack. Tack makers in...

    For Sale Or Commission Resin Horses

    Horse Trading Continued - New Resins! Okay second up: This one is one of my favorites, so I just might change my mind about selling this little guy. 1:32 scale (54mm) Mini-Fabrizio Stallion. I believe this little guy was sculpted for a Dartmoor or Dale type pony but give him spots and he...

    Vallejo Primer.

    I love Tamiya Fine Surface Gray and White for my resin horses. I need tooth for the pigments but if I get too much the pigments go grainy and it looks awful and takes a long time to fix. With Tamiya I get good coverage without filling detail and enough tooth but I can also "sock out" the model...

    WIP Critique Pegaso Roaming Knight

    Sometimes my reach exceeds my grasp. The mane and tail on my reference horse are very different from each other. While Mother Nature, in her great artistry, can pull this off on a living animal. I find my limited skills on a static model falling woefully short. I wanted to do my best to...

    Is this figure Resin? Really?

    Thank you Gordy and Carl. Perhaps it is because the resin horse industry is still very small. While Breyer has been around since the 50's and produces thousands of plastic horses a year, the resin horse industry is still very small, very entrepreneurial. There are only a handful of casting...

    Here's something you might find interesting

    Is this figure Resin? Really?

    Hi Mark thank you very much for the info. Due to my hand tremors, I find using an Xacto quite hazardous to both me and the model. I use a carbide scraper which works wonderfully on plastic, white metal, and my resin horses. I imagine it would work with this as well. The model horses are...

    Is this figure Resin? Really?

    Wow! First off, please allow me to apologize. I never thought posting my question would cause such a furor and it was not my desire to hit such a hot button topic. I appreciate both Jesus and Chern for their responses and working to make a customer happy. My only intent with my original post...

    Is this figure Resin? Really?

    I honestly don't know. It came in a box with a nice quality label. But no blister like Guy described for Cedric. It was wrapped in bubble wrap and tightly wrapped in a plastic bag. I got it from the CMON store and the label says CMON is the US licenser. So if it's a knock-off, I think CMON...

    Is this figure Resin? Really?

    Thanks Gordy! I had a feeling there might be a huge variation in resin but the model horse industry is surprisingly standardized. The Breyer horses are injection molds but the resins by the independent sculptors and sent to companies for casting are rotocast. I did go back through and to a...

    Is this figure Resin? Really?

    Hey Jim, Yes, it's very bendable - I can bend the sword easily. It looks and acts like plastic but the feel of it is different. Like it has a slight texture to it...it's hard to explain. Years ago I purchased a Greater War Demon figure that's resin. It feels more like plastic than my resin...

    WIP Latest in progress flat.

    Hey I'm LOVIN' that mane and tail! lol! Very nice! I want larger pics tho. ;) I'm thinking it's more or less a foundation as the tones are pretty even. The highlights on the horse are also nice but I don't know how far you are going with it so I don't want to say it's a bit too strong and large...

    Is this figure Resin? Really?

    I'm going to post this here because while I'm not new to figures or to the hobby this is such a basic question...I'm almost embarrassed to ask it. I purchased a Nocturna figure The Usurper 54mm. At the online store where I bought it, they also carried other 54mm by this company (Cedric of...

    WIP Critique Pegaso Roaming Knight

    No worries! Horsie pictures of any sort are always welcome in my thread. But I did respond to your post with my thoughts. While the range of colors you have to chose from might be a little daunting, if you pick something that is a bit toward the non-standard (for models not horses) side, such...
