 Full Prep and Prime, some minor CMing to add detail

Status: Received September 2010. All finished by February 14, 2011. 

Pluto:  2/1/11: This horse was one of the most difficult plastics I've had yet to get a smooth surface on.

Running Stallion:

  2/1/11: Had one leg (the extended hind) that would not let him stand properly.

Prepped, Hooves Leveled & Reshaped to stand level, Ears Carved, Primered. Boxed, ready to ship.

Shipped/Received 2/12/2011 - listed on Finished page. Primed pictures below. Model is currently being finished by Kollean Gouyton.

Stone Morgan:  2/1/11: 

Prepped, Genitals resculpted, Hooves Leveled & Reshaped to stand level, Ears Carved, primered. Boxed, ready to ship. Will be boxed and shipped week of Valentine's Day (Feb 13th, 2011). Pictures below are before primer, finished one is credited to Lynn Royea.

Rojo/Grazing Mesteno:  2/1/11: Was originally received with a broken leg. Due to some damage in prepping, a replacement was found, and that horse was prepped in place of the original. The original is now owned by myself, and the Ebay horse will be sent in his place. Seams, rough spots, and some very minor tweaking of the legs to get him to stand level. He has been primered, and 

will be boxed and shipped week of Valentine's Day (Feb 13th, 2011). Picture before primer is credited to myself, finished ones are credited to Julie Cervantes.

 Heartland ASB2/1/11: Deep seam gouge running on chest/belly area. Rough seams everywhere else. Already stands pretty soundly, no leveling was required for standing. Did NOT carve out his hooves, as the plastic literally would not play nicely with my dremel, when attempting to work on his ears. Made him into a gelding, and added a forelock to cover up the ugly mold formation between his ears. He will also be boxed and shipped the week of Valentine's Day (Feb 13th, 2011). Finish work is being done by Gay Malhandt and I can't wait to see how he turns out!

Goffert: 2/1/11: Little to no seams, but had a gouge on one hind leg that required some filling. He also had some loss of hair detail on the plastic on one hind leg, that was resculpted. Very little other work was needed for him, except when he got sprayed with primer, some flaws in his mane and tail were revealed. Those have been fixed as of this week, and he will be resprayed, and finished by Feb 18th, 2011 for shipment. Pictures below are before primer, finished ones still to be taken.

Update 4/15/11: Goffert blew seams out like nobody's business. Goffert is now mine. Arrangements have been made to replace him with a Brand New Bravehart Resin from Horse Power Graphics, Link is: http://www.modelhorsejamboree.com/thorsolid.htm.

Below are the original models shortly after I received them, with the exception of the Heartland.
