Ian Report post Posted July 9, 2009 (edited) A while back I had this crazy idea I wanted to be a horse sculptor, so I did a figure of an Andalusian stallion and a couple of others. A friend, who is an artist himself, suggested I enter it in a guild show. I wasn't too optomistic since there were 3 professional sculptors showing too, but, low and behold, I got best of show for my first effort. Here's a picture (still haven't made my light box, so the quality is poor) and another of a Morgan circus horse, I'd like to cast in resin for a pair of bookends. I've since lost interest in sculture, but I have something cool for my bookshelf anyway Edited July 9, 2009 by Ian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ian Report post Posted July 9, 2009 Thanks for the nice words folks. I forgot to mention, it's not bronze as it appears to be, but Sculpey Clay painted with spray paint and antiqued with acrylic paint. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
