Welcome

If you are interested in model horses, here is my collection online, including DIY projects. I do lots of work with found objects and prop/scene work and my projects are usually inexpensive and very creative.
The links to ponylagoon are NOT to my PHOTOS. They are for reference & structure only.
Projects are related to creating an eye-pleasing, properly scaled display in the china cabinent for the models which the child in me refuses to relinquish (or insists on acquiring!).

Thanks for stopping in!

Paulo on a Donkey

I really like donkeys, so I like this Picasso a lot.

I got out some leftover Super Sculpey yesterday morning and made a wire armature, head and 2 hands, wrapped in TP and gauze and built up the costume as I went along. His eyes are little clear blue seed beads. Still working on the saddle & bridle, but how cute is he? Click pic to see album.

However, it is in the scale of many extras I had around, most thanks to Diane last summer... -thank you-! And also in the scale of a nice china model I am worried of toppling, so I took on the cheap barn and in the last month here's what's happened:

I didn't get to pics of the tackroom, but will update this post when I get them!

Also finishing out a Traditional run in shed, a rotating Stablemates window box, a new Stablemates display case and a smaller single stall Classics shed.
