FEC WB
Equilocity 2009 Dinner Chip "Ghost", a portrait & run of 30. Picked up at a recent visit to the factory, which is always a treat. I exercised a great deal of self-discipline by not bringing home any other expensive lovelies.

Crystal? Is it you?
Woe, I mean !WHOA! is me; my Crystal arrived in a lovely, flawless, lsq, GLOSSY finish to my excited dismay. Is there a word to describe this mix of shock, excitement, frustration, disappointment & adoration?
The primary reason I don't order glossies too often is that they are impossible to photo accurately, see above? This photo does her NO justice. You might get some good pictures, but the paintwork is always a bit distorted by the hi-shine. I love to photo my horses.
The only other reason I don't do many glossy model horses is that I feel flaws are more obvious in this finish, and usually the gloss itself is unevenly distributed or has fine dust/'artifacts' in it. In a regular run I anticpate this accordingly, esp from Breyer, but a pre-ordered Stone special run; well - if I didn't want to photo show her, I would have ordered a glossy.
I called the factory & explained my order mixup & despite the lovely gloss I really wanted Matte finish. Peter & Doug were very helpful, shipped a matte to me and I am supposed to ship the glossy back.
I have officially decided to keep glossy as a sale horse of my own because she's so lovely. If interested, I will consider offers.
