Painting Breyers?

[KoishiiKitty]

I just painted my first Breyer. I had a booklet from the breyer company for a long time that went over how to custom paint and customize, and I have seen some awesome jobs..so I have been looking forword to trying it out.
any one else here do custom paints?

Here is mine. I went with a wildier look, Tiger-ish stripes.
I have two more I am contemplating colors for…

I have more compasite photos of it here: http://koishii-kitty.deviantart.com/art/Magpie-Tiger-Poney-146444909

Looks really good 🙂

The following links are from pieces I painted ~10 years ago (yes, yes, I’m really old LOL ). A couple years ago I started playing around with painting breyers again, but I’ve been aiming for realistic color schemes and haven’t produced anything worth photographing yet.

I saw yours on DA, Koishii; it’s beautiful. That color scheme is a winner.

[Leigha]

ooooh pretty, Koishii!

You gonna sell or keep him? *hint hint* *grabby hands*

[KoishiiKitty]

thanks everyone! i’m still thinking on what to do with the other two..
yes, i plan on selling. i’m just not sure how i’m going to do that yet.

Wow, that’s sooo cool. I love your ability with patterns. Makes me very envious of your talent 😀 . I love breyer customs. I’d like to do some breyer re-paints and even some re-sculpting to. I Bought several used and damaged breyers from ebay with that intent – but I haven’t had the motivation to start one yet 😳 .

Purpleturtle, you got loads of your own distinct talent. You don’t need to envy Koishii! 😀

Oh, all 3 of you who’s names appear in that quote have got more talent in your pinkies than I can dream of having. You have all atleast half a dozen times left me speechless from opening one of your PYO threads. 🙂 And oh how I love to look at them! 😈

Awfully kind of you to say so, WSC, but the fact is that you’re a more precise and careful painter than I’ll ever have the patience to be. I could never get a straight line on a textured surface. 😆
