Well I wanted to do more this week, but thanks to a nasty electrical storm my satellite connection wasn't working! But wanted to show off the NAN piece I am finishing up this next week. This set is called "The Journey" and is a tribute to a dear lost friend of the hobby, Lisa Salamandick. Lisa lost her battle with cancer last year, and I will go into the full story of how I got to know her later....but she so loved arabians, especially dancing horses. So the horse of the set is a drastically remade breyer lonesome glory into a fiery dancing stallion. The set comes complete with halter and breastcollar set made by Lisa herself...generously donated my uber gal pal Kathy Wiggins (who I would be lost without!)
Here is the head, its a remade PAM head and I did a mane and tail full of action to really make him dramatic
Full body shot, he is doing a correct spanish walk, think of all the fun he will be to show!

All I can say is wow! And what a special thing to do a tribute to Lisa :-) Huggs, Jane
Wonderful! I can't wait to see it all put together.
You rock!
Just awesome -- they're both really special.
What was the dancing horse originally before you customized it? It almost looks like it used to be a Lonesome Glory. Thanks!
The lack of Canadians in your post dissapoitns me :(
Sorry I didn't reply to this sooner. The Dancing Horse was a lonesome glory, with a PAM head and totally new neck.
Oh you Canucks will get your day soon, Mountie the Moose is creating quite a mess here!
