Meet Montana - Black and White Paint Custom Breyer Horse




Montana is a gorgeous paint with roan markings on some of her patches.

My favorite part of her was the fact she has white eyelashes on her right eye.



When doing my customs, first I sand and prime the model.

Then I airbrush the base coat (in this case white).

I then handpaint any special markings in acrylics.

Then varnish the model with numerous layers.



Interested in a custom model? Please go to my website for contact information.
