Dapple Unicorn Updated & Finished

[Shawna]

Dappling completed, shading on legs and muzzle done. Mane repainted white so the pearl champagne will go on even.

Complete, jewelery painted, antiqued, and masking fluid removed from eyes and base of horn.

Pics kinda don’t show her as well as I’d like, but since it raining today, I’ll have to wait a few days for some better outdoor pics in natural light.

I am really pleased with how she came out. The eyes are green, but they appear more yellowish, especially since her base color is blue.

Let me know what you guys think. Also, I’d like to know if this WIP series helped any with painting dappling with a brush.

Also, there are several levels of dappling in horses, anywhere from really faint spots only along the flanks and sides, to all over really faint, to heavy like I did with this girl, and anywhere in between the three. No two dapples are the same, and each one is very unique.

Thanks for the comments thus far.

Should I offer her up in our Flea Market, or put her up on Ebay once I’ve got her sealed and new pics taken?

Opinions?

the dapple right now reminds me of a mlp. but, it sounds like it will turn out cool with your plans. what color eyes does it have?

What is a MLP? I keep seeing that, but I haven’t a clue what it means.

She’s neat. I like the idea of using blue.

I like her, even if I can’t help thinking ‘smurf horse.’ 😉 The dapples came out wonderful! 😀

You can always offer her up here and then Ebay her if you dont get the offer you want. 🙂

She is not “smurfy”…not not not!

Besides she looks better than that in person. Thanks on the dapples, it doesn’t usually take me a week to paint something, but I think all the time taken paid off.

I plan to take some in the sun pics today.

Thanks. You always say such nice things.

I guess she’s too odd colored though, looks like she’ll be heading to eBay.

I thought the same thing – you could do the “horse” of a different color series: -)

Considering it took me 4 days to get all the dappling, I think not. Though come to think of it, a purple one would look neat.
