#model animals

After painting lots of tiny ponies, sometimes I just want to paint something--tinier! So here's Breyer's Stablemate-scale goat, who measures in at a whopping one and a quarter inches tall. She's a belted buckskin with splashy markings, and she was entirely too much fun to paint up.

I love these weird little dudes with their silly tiny eyepatches and big domed melons.

I also got a Vaquita!

I love Him

Lenox Halloween Carousel Horse, circa 2000.

[Image Description: a photograph of a black carousel horse figurine. The horse’s reins and harness are festooned with orange jack-o-lanterns, while pumpkin vines and flowers adorn their mane and tail. A pair of wispy ghosts lounge on the horse’s saddle, which is decorated with a portrait of a witch riding a broom. End image description.]

While the vast majority of my custom model horses sell in a reasonable time period, I have a few that for whatever reason have been hanging around for years waiting for the right home. These four have been here the longest; let's see if we can't find them new stables. If you want to see more pictures of them and find other details about them you can find all my available models at https://www.etsy.com/shop/thegreenwolf?section_id=23514524.

I do NOT guarantee LSQ; as with any handmade artwork models may have small flaws here and there. Prices DO include shipping, and feel free to make offers as well; you can drop me a line at lupa(dot)greenwolf(at)gmail(dot)com.

Hartland Plastics, in its various incarnations over the years, made a wide variety of models of domestic animals. This includes a donkey, camel, bull, and several sheep for their Nativity set. I acquired the animals from one of these vintage sets, and this is the grazing ewe. She’s been customized to a cocktail Arapawa ewe; this is a New Zealand landrace likely descended from merino sheep. I’ve given her a long tail, and a dry udder since she doesn’t have an accompanying lamb, and I painted her in Earth Pigments and acrylics. She’s nicknamed “Eileen” because she does lean to the side a bit, but as long as you aren’t rocking the shelf hard she’ll stay upright.
