Right??? The image fills me with delight. Jason's kinda basic though. His favourite is FMAB (cos it's my favourite too), but Richie has gone far deeper.

Thicckening commences. For this bulking out stage, I'm using @smoothon's Free Form Air putty (why do they have a tumblr???). It's very lightweight and fairly inexpensive (and also one of the few epoxy putties available in my area), so it's good for blocking in the general shapes. It is VERY sticky though, so I'll probably switch to something else for the details. I've never done a horse on this scale before. If we're using Breyer's scaling system, she's a small Tranditional. Maybe 1:10 scale? A little smaller than I'd intended due to some weirdness with a printer. I've never actually finished the other horses I've started, but I'm excited for this one. Don't expect this momentum to continue though. I've got the week off, hence the speed of the updates so far.

Lemme tell you about a horse. And Sherlock Holmes. As you know, I'm a big fan of the 1984 Granada Sherlock Holmes series and I've watched it through a couple of times now. But I'm also a horse person, and so naturally, I took note of the horses used for filming. They obviously had a limited pool of horses to use so many of them appear and reappear throughout the series. But one horse caught my eye. She was a beautiful chunky little chestnut mare (I think) and she was EVERYWHERE. Right through from season one until The Master Blackmailer, which I believe was her final appearance, there are very few episodes where her face doesn't appear. And when I say she was everywhere I really do mean it. She appeared so often and in so many places that it became a joke between @lyracalmuse and I that she was the mastermind behind every crime Holmes investigated, because there was no reason for her to be present at so many otherwise. So she gained the nickname, Mareiarty, the Marengo of Crime. For some reason I couldn't get her out of my head. I wanted to make her so badly. So now I am. Here's the picture I'm using for the reference for her pose. I picked it because I like the bunched up energy and want to try and capture it. My reference document for her is over 70 pages long, all screencaps from the show where she appears. She's kind of taken over my brain, I can only assume with malicious intent.

Yes that's 221b behind her.
