Custom Model Horses in Every Hue!
Breyer Animal Creations
Irish Ayes
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Quarter Horse (G2)
Color: Green-bay Frame Overo
Gallery: Overo
Medium: Acrylics, Liquitex Phthalocyanine Green
Status: Painted 2005? and Sold May 2005
This little guy was a lot of fun to paint and he’s one of the few horses that ended in a bidding war on eBay. Well, he did end up under $30 I think, so more of a bidding skirmish, but still. Continue reading
Nachtlied
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Paso Fino (G2)
Color: Dark Bay
Gallery: Bay
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
Nachtlied Is German for ‘Night Song’ and this started the dark bay German silliness that followed in Nachtmaus and Nachtkatze. I know that these little guys are probably renamed as soon as they head out the door to their new owners, but coming up with names is one of my favorite parts of the process. Continue reading
ROL Partly Cloudy
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Standing Foal (G1)
Color: Blue-bay Frame Overo
Gallery: Overo
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little guy was a custom order (Add-a-Foal?) and is owned by RayovLight Creations. He can be seen on their website along with a few other G2 SB’s that might look familiar. *grin* Continue reading
Firefoal
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Scrambling Foal (G2)
Color: Fire (Red, Orange, Yellow)
Gallery: Other Color
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted and Sold Jan 2005
This little guy was an Add-a-Foal for Infernal Whimsy that I painted in the same color pattern. I was planning on giving him a ‘real’ name, but Firefoal had a nice ring to it—so it stuck. Continue reading
Nobody's Fool
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Trotting Foal (G2)
Color: Bay
Gallery: Bay
Medium: Acrylics and Pastels
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
Nobody is a simple resculpt, with some added feathering and smidge of epoxy added to his face to change the profile. He was created as part of a custom order– yet another unnamed foal that got a moniker post-sale (I just got bored of all the ‘Unnamed’ showing up in the galleries). Continue reading
ROL Blue By You
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Saddlebred (G2)
Color: Blue Roan Tovero
Gallery: Other Color
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little gal was a custom order of Captain Erroneous‘s color on the Saddlebred mold. She’s owned by RayovLight Creations and can be seen on their website along with a few other G2 SB’s that might look familiar. Continue reading
Red Baron
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Paso Fino (G2)
Color: Red-bay Frame Overo
Gallery: Overo
Medium: Acrylics and Pastels
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little gal is something of an oddity in terms of painting techniques. Normally I paint a solid base color and then go back and add white markings, but in this case I left the primer coat alone painted ‘around’ the white markings instead. Continue reading
Finnegans Wake
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Shire (G2)
Color: Green Bay Sabino
Gallery: Sabino
Medium: Acrylics, Liquitex Phthalocyanine Green
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
Finnegan is yet another green horse with an Irish-based name, which is pretty much par for the course at this point. He’s an interesting fella because there isn’t any black in this guy (other than his eyes), the dark points are actually phthalocyanine green. Continue reading
Pumpkin King
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Quarter Horse (G2)
Color: Black and Orange Tobiano
Gallery: Tobiano
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
I rarely do holiday themed horses, since by the time I finish them the holiday is over, so this little guy is a rare exception to the norm. I was tempted to give him Halloween themed cat tracks, but the basic orange and black looked too nice to fiddle with. Continue reading
Cirrus Spissatus
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Saddlebred (G2)
Color: Faux-Charcoal
Gallery: Other Color
Medium: Acrylics and Pastels
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little gal was a custom order along with Cirrus Uncinus. The color is supposed to be a faux-charcoal coloring (see reference pic), but it didn’t come out as well as I had hoped. Continue reading
Epona's Chimera
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Morgan (G2)
Color: Bay Brindle
Gallery: Other Color
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little guy was a custom order for a color I had never painted before… and to be fair I’m not sure that he really counts as having painted one now. *pokes horse* I ended up with something that looks a little too much like a tiger and not enough like an actual brindle pattern. Continue reading
Unnamed Portrait Foal
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Trotting Foal (G2)
Color: Black Tobiano
Gallery: Tobiano
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little gal (guy?) was a custom ordered portrait horse… but that’s all the notes I have on her right now. Once I figure out who she is, I’ll come back and update the name and the description. Continue reading
Baby Grand
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Trotting Foal (G2)
Color: Bay
Gallery: Bay
Medium: Acrylics and Pastels
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little guy was an Add-a-Foal for an Andalusian custom order (Senza Sordina) and is a nice plain bay without any chrome. As soon as I can track down my notes I’ll come back and add in more information, but for now—he’s just a Baby Grand struttin’ his stuff in the pasture. Continue reading
PS Foal
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Trotting Foal (G2)
Color: Green, Black, Gold Faux-Stone
Gallery: Other Color
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little guy was an Add-a-Foal for Philosophers’ Stone. Painted in the same faux-stone pattern, he actually turned out a lot better than the photos show. Such are the joys of early generation digital cameras! Continue reading
Zodiac's Curse
Make: Breyer
Scale: CollectiBulls
Mold: Little Yellow Jacket
Color: Purple and Gold
Medium: Acrylics, Liquitex Dioxazine Purple
Gallery: Not-Horses
Status: Painted 2004 and Sold Mar 2004
This little guy was a blast to paint, but a pain to photograph! He’s now a deep glossy purple with ‘natural’ white markings, gold hooves, horns, eyes, tiny gold dots for stars. Continue reading
Cirrus Uncinus
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Trotting Foal (G2)
Color: Faux-Charcoal
Gallery: Other Color
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little gal was an Add-a-Foal for custom Saddlebred (Cirrus Spissatus), both of which where done in a faux-charcoal coloring (see reference pic). Since I didn’t have a working airbrush at the time I used pastels to try and mimic the overspray that was found on many of the older Breyer models. Continue reading
Shadowcat
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Arabian (G2)
Color: Black with Red Tiger Stripes
Gallery: Other Color
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little guy is a clear example of where ‘good intentions’ met ‘blatant procrastination’.
I was working on a realistic tiger colored Arabian and Standing Foal and was trying to learn how to effectively paint the striping patterns. I figured it would be easiest to do on a fantasy mold, so Shadowcat was born. Continue reading
Misfits Foal
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Cantering Foal (G2)
Color: Black with white Misfits’ skull logo
Gallery: Other Color
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little guy has a flat black base, red eyes and nostrils, a white skill pattern on his rump, a white bat on his forehead, and a translucent pearlescent layer under a high gloss finish. He’s one of the few non-portrait custom orders that came with detailed instructions! Continue reading
Misfits Arabian
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Arabian (G2)
Color: Black with white Misfits’ skull logo
Gallery: Other Color
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This handsome fella has a flat black base, red eyes and nostrils, a white skill pattern on each flank, a white bat on his forehead, and a translucent pearlescent layer under a high gloss finish. Continue reading
Smokey's Shadow
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Quarter Horse (G2)
Color: Dark Bay
Gallery: Bay
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 2004 and Sold Mar 2004
I’m pretty fond of the way this little guy came out. He’s a simple dark bay with just the slightest bit of a resculpt to make him stand out from the crowd (the flipped tail). He was named in homage of titular horse from Smoky the Cow Horse by Will James. Continue reading
Silver Dollar
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Quarter Horse (G2)
Color: Silver Bay Tovero
Gallery: Other
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
I have no idea how I managed to sell this guy with such bad photos… What the heck was I thinking? Continue reading
Seafoam Spritz
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Cantering Foal (G2)
Color: Turquoise/Teal and White
Gallery: Other Color
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little guy started with a solid light teal base and was stenciled with a darker shade of teal (turquoise?) and white. He was finished off with solid black eyes, mane, tail, and hooves. He’s a glossy, which accounts for some of the bad lens flare, and much cuter in person. Continue reading
Piano Adagio
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Andalusian (G2)
Color: Dark Bay
Gallery: Bay
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 2003 and Feb Sold 2003
Most of my Andalusian customs have a musical bent and this little guy is no different. Piano means ‘softly’ and Adagio means ‘at ease’ so this fella is dancing to a soft, slow melody. Continue reading
Low Tide
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Cantering Foal (G2)
Color: Green, Blue, Silver
Gallery: Other Color
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little guy started with a solid white base and then was stenciled in layers of semi-opaque blue and green and then finished with a touch of silver. He has solid black eyes, mane, tail, and hooves and was topped off in a glossy sealer. Continue reading
Meadowlands Lafayette
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Saddlebred (G2)
Color: Rose Gray (Bay going Gray)
Gallery: Dilutes
Medium: Acrylics, Prismacolor Pencils
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little gal is an example of why I offer full refunds on custom orders—I’m never quite sure what I can pull off and what’s outside of my range. In this case dapple gray was a step too far, but the person who ordered her kept her anyways. (Brave soul!) Continue reading
Sparky
Make: Breyer
Scale: Companion Animals
Mold: Pembroke Welsh Corgi
Color: Red and White
Gallery: Not-Horses
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little guy was the first dog model I painted, but there are other dogs in the wings so he won’t be the last! Now I just need to get my hands on more Breyer corgis… Continue reading
Good China
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Scratching Foal (G2)
Color: Blue and White Stencil
Gallery: Other Color
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little guy started with a solid white base and was stenciled with two different blues and was finished off with solid black eyes, mane, tail, and hooves. He’s a glossy, which accounts for some of the bad lens flare, and much cuter in person. Continue reading
Indigo Dancer
Make: Breyer
Scale: Stablemate
Mold: Warmblood (G2)
Color: Dark Bay Tobiano
Gallery: Tobiano
Medium: Acrylics
Status: Painted 200? and Sold 200?
This little guy’s name came from the fact that he started out life as a deep purple tobiano– you could still see a little bit of the tint left, once I went back in and modified the color, but only if you were looking for it. Continue reading
