Stone ISH- Commission Piece from private owner.
Customizations:
- Squared Up Legs
- Head Straightened Out, Tucked "On Bit"
- Ears Moved to "Listening"
- Mane and Tail Braided
Status: Received. 9/17/10 Work on stripping as much of the OF as possible has begun.
10/13/10: Work on the CM has started. Legs are being moved, and the mane and tail have been 'shaved' to prepare for the braids. He unfortunately had to loose his head temporarily, but will be replaced in the position requested. It had to be removed because there was no room with the neck to move it down to the vertical. The neck will need to be slightly reshaped to allow the head in that position.
The picture below is the horse after the first round of moving the legs and reattaching the head. Work still needs to be done on the neck, ears, and the off hind leg from the hock down, as the leg is not correct as he stands currently.
2/15/11: Head has been removed, and reset. More cutting and sanding was done on various areas of the body. I wasn't happy with the way he looked. Tail has also been worked on more in preparation for a braided tail to be added later on.

I'm still not very satisfied with the way it looks, but I'm getting closer. I will have to spend some more time with the dremel I think till I get it right.
