LaFayette is made from the Breyer Keltic Salinero mold. I have turned (him) into a Gorgeous ASB Mare. She has wonderful details right down to the veins in her nostrils and custom metal shoes with clips and pads. I have added new white markings to her, these are the first photos...the rest are before adding the white :) LaFayette won 1st and reserve Champion in CM Gaited at MAR 2008!!!
- She has a brand new feminine profile with a beautiful alert expression.
- Her ears have been faced more forward, placed closer together, reshaped and also little tufts of fur have been added at the tips, groomers leave a
tuft right at the tips to make their ears appear more pointed.
- Her neck has been gracefully lifted, arched, and little mass was taken away to give her more of a delicate shape.
- Her right hip was resculpted, leg lifted and repositioned, little skin wrinkles added and a bit more haunch muscle added.
- Left front leg was raised and resculpted along with that shoulder and elbow area, and the pastern was repositioned with a tad bit of resculpting. All
four legs have been repositioned.
- Her muzzle and nostrils have been reshaped and a cleft was added to her upper lip.
- I have added a beautiful flowing mane and tail with lots of smooth waves and she does not need a base to stand perfectly and level.
- I have also made custom Metal Shoes with Clips on the toes and attached them, she also has the black Pads between the shoes and hooves.
- Finally, she is painted in many many layers of oils giving her that superior glow and rich deep bay color. She is entirely painted by hand with no
airbrushing and she is totally smooth. Her mane, tail and white markings are painted in acrylics and oils, and are smooth as well. I forgot to paint her nail heads on...they will be on there shortly lol.
Please take your time and look at the photos, I'm sorry for the darkness of the photos, I cannot get her true color to pick up!
