Check out the restoration on this beautiful little Al Hadiye resin, sculpted by Deb McDermott and painted by Stephanie Blaylock!

This little one arrived to me in a really rough state; a broken back leg for starters, plus lots of rubs and marks from poor storage. After reaching out to Stephanie to give her first dibs on restoring him, it was time to get to work.

First, he got a gentle wash in lukewarm water to remove all dust and grime. With that completed, I then repaired the break using a tiny drop of CA glue, followed by thin layers of high-viscosity clear UV resin to fill the crack and strengthen the joint. Then it was on to the best part: painting! Using acrylic washes and pastels, all damaged areas were addressed, and blended seamlessly into his otherwise lovely finishwork. Finally, a fresh coat of satin varnish brought him back to his former glory, complete with a beautiful glow! All that's left now is a tidy application of eye gloss and he will be show-ready again, over a decade after his original creation.

This little one will be going home next week to a dear friend who adores Stephanie's work. From now on, no more storage woes for this long-suffering fellow!

SOLD! Continuing a light studio clean-out! Up for sale is Amanda Brock's "Ataraxia" head. She released a handful of these last year as a head and tail set. I've already used the tail in a project, and have decided to part with the head.

Anyone looking for a Breyer Isla?

I don't need mine, so she's available for $60 ppd anywhere in the US. She will come with her satin bag.

I don't collect or show OF, so I can't speak to any possible flaws - to my eye though, she looks very nice with no obvious damage. Please see photos :)

They are printing beautifully every time, and ready to be added to your barns and performance setups. They can hold everything from saddle pads, to blankets, fly spray bottles, halters, bridles, and more.

Get them here:

One more mule-related announcement for today! And it's a big one!

To celebrate the release of Breyer's first new longear since 1996, I have been secretly sculpting THREE brand-new variations of my popular mule sculpt, Daisy!

Here's a teaser for the first variation: Dozin' Daisy! Maybe she's taking a little nap in the crossties after a long trail ride; or maybe she's basking in the sunshine on a warm summer afternoon? It's up to you!

Stay tuned for teasers of the other two variations very soon. These new mules will be available to order in late December or early January!

Wondering what your Winnifred would look like with different ear positions? Here's a mule ear swap in progress, with several different variations pictured. I hope it gives you a spark of inspiration for your Winnie custom!
