[TheStarSlammer]

I have one word for ya....................WOW!

[TheSicilianSisters]

IMPRESSIVE. Horses are considered one of the hardest animals to draw or paint. And here you salvaged a situation where you thought all was lost. Great job!

[horsesrmylife78]

This is in JAH this month, right?

[MorgenKilbourn]

@horsesrmylife78 - hi there! Yes, one of the horses in the photos was this sculpture! :) Also - sorry that youtube flagged your message as spam. I just now got a notice & see that I missed a bunch of notices! :) (and again, I think the youtube/flagged thing must have been automatic or soemthing - it wasn't me!)

[horsesrmylife78]

@MorgenKilbourn That's so awesome! I'd love to be in the JAH magazine! It's ending, though, so that's not happening any time soon. The whole spam thing is fine, I didn't even know that it was flagged XD

[MorgenKilbourn]

hi showjumper & tx for your interest in my work! this sculpture ('Hazel") was cast in a resin edition where approx 150 resin castings were made - these are all sold out now. i may have her cast in a future edition in china or bronze but I would try to do something a little different (add a rider or war tack or something). anyhow, tx so much for your interest all the same! :)

[showjumper204]

would u sell it



[oliviaisarokingal]

[jminucelli]

Nice work, very creative.

Congratulations!

[2000dinky]

wow

[MorgenKilbourn]

[the rest]

@ Takara9, yup - that's Hazel! @Spottedear1 - no idea but this isn’t the right way to do one – I should make another the right way someday.. good idea! :) & @paniolo101 - a base coat in airbrush sometimes but mostly paint in oils. @pittielove - the stainless steed rod pegs were provided by the caster & they're cast into the model (run up into her legs).

[MorgenKilbourn]

Tx guys! Horsesrme12123 is right, I sculpted & sold these sculptures myself. A casting production company actually cast each one off of this original. They were not for sale through Breyer, they were sold as artist resins off of my web site. :) {MORE}

[paniolo101]

nice paint job! what did you use?!?!

[breyersaregreat]

did you make them

[GypsyVanner24]

Apply for Breyer!!!!

[spottedear1]

i would never be able to do that in a millon years, how many sculptures did it take you to achive this level! it's like a breyer model! it would be well aprechiated if you made a tutorial! for complete amitures!

[horsesrme12123]

@spottedear1 its wayyyy better than breyer, its like a artest resin

[Nevehfan]

was that for breyer then if it was i dont think breyer has done that

[horsesrme12123]

@Nevehfan not all breyers are reg runs or anything, this would have been a OOAK resin

[Nevehfan]

@horsesrme12123 i am saying this in a good way that i know i have not seen a model like that.

[horsesrme12123]
