All done! A portrait of my gelding who had been sitting on my desk for a year, so thank you NaMoPaiMo for pushing me to finally do it. Ace of Spades <3

NaMoPaiMo - Weeks 2 & 3

I got my guy primed and ready to roll! Airbrushing the layers with some pastels sealed between, to help soften the transition of colour. I also used pearl ex pigments for the first time thanks to the NaMo facebook. 


I did mess him up which set me back a few days, I didn't wait long enough for him to dry.


On to white feet and details! I can totally finish him in time *cough*

NaMoPaiMo - First Week

It seems that I only blog and paint ponies once a year for NaMoPaiMo now. I guess not entirely true I was able to paint two small Christmas presents at the end of 2018. This year for NaMo I decided to do my first Traditional (yes I'm crazy) a portrait of my gelding Ace. I had plans for this last year after NaMo but never got very far, so I thought this is the year!


He is a Yasmin body, sculpted gelding parts, Huck head and tail. Also a re-sculptured mane. 


This is a piece of the real Ace's tail hair, which I put inside the air hole. A little bit of real Ace!


My supervisor overseeing my work. 


First primer showed so many issues! Why didn't I start sooner or try to go so large! 


One spot had a bad patch of epoxy, I had to remove it right down to the blue painters tape layer. So this next week will be more prep more! ...yay
