We were supposed to have a blizzard today. In fact, the forecast was so dire the school district went ahead and declared the snow day before a single flake had fallen.
As it turns out, they should have waited. We ended up getting maybe two inches. Maybe.
Oh well. It's been a nice, quiet, lazy day at home with the kids and dogs.
I've even managed to get a few things accomplished.
Little miss Double Stuff (what else would you name Oreo's filly?) is coming along nicely.
Her base color is complete and her markings are getting there.
I'm beginning to think I might actually finish her, especially if there's more snow in the forecast!

Very cute! I should take advantage of our good weather and go out and prime some horses.
ReplyDeleteLooking good so far! I love her name. :D
ReplyDeleteLove James and the dogs!
ReplyDeleteOh that filly is to die for!
ReplyDeleteI agree! I am still a beginner at customizing. I am still a bit nervous to paint a breyer... Not sure how it's gonna turn out. I WANT to paint one, but I don't know if I want to possiblt ruin one of my models. I may have to find a resin or body to paint.
DeleteOMG! I am LOVING that filly!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it's not but you sure are making the painting part of this hobby 'stuff' look easy. I can't wait to try it!!
She looks gorgeous! Are you using an airbrush?
ReplyDeleteI was about to ask the same thing! How hard is airbrushing? I want to try it. XD
DeleteShe's painted with pastels (base color) and hand-painted acrylics (white markings). I have only handled an airbrush once or twice in my life, and the results weren't pretty! Don't know if this is typical for everyone, but I really struggled to get a feel for the airbrush. It's not intuitive at all--at least not for me!
