Red Roan Appaloosa Custom Breyer Horse




LOVE how this guy came out. I am not sure what his name is, but to me it looks like it should be "Wildfire" or something like that :-) He belongs to Julia in Georgia.

He is painted on the Mon Gamin Breyer model. His body was airbrushed in acrylic and all his details/spots are painted by hand. :-)
Here's a little horse painting secret- To get the vibrant red brown I use Liquitex Basics "Red Oxide".

I also painted horseshoes on this guy, he's such a stud! Well-- a gelding *wink*

Do you have a horse you would like turned into a custom model? Please email me for a price list at kcampbellartist@hotmail.com
Models start at $65

Custom Breyer Horse: Meet Sonny




Sonny belongs to Katie in New Jersey. He is a beautiful Red Dun!
This is the second model I did for Katie, the last one I did for her was a pretty dapple grey.

This model was airbrushed, I carved out his hooves and ears, sanded his logo and heavy seams, and added boyparts to make him a gelding.

Meet Bling- Custom Breyer Foal

Bling is the offspring of Mystic and Chic (His grandfather is Smart Chic Olena). Isn't he handsome? I also had the pleasure of doing two models of his dad Chic, and a model of his mother Mystic to complete the custom breyer set. I loved painting this little foal!
