A Great Mail Week

Kristian BeverlyLeave a comment

College started out fast from the start. Which isn’t a bad thing because I do enjoy college (minus math!). The Equestrian Club will be starting up soon and I joined a couple of new clubs this fall (Photography Club and the campus lit magazine). College is a whole awesome world within itself, so my plastic pony time has been limited. But that doesn’t stop me from buying supplies!
This came during the week.

The two saddle trees are by Kirsteen Haley-Nettles and are pleasure type. It’s my first time trying this tree style I have to clean them up, but that’s not at the top of my to do list. I’m hoping to finish long overdue things and start on new orders.

And the Fear The Walking Dead contest is over, but I’ll let in any stragglers until I pull the 2 winners.  I’m hoping to draw the winners either tomorrow or Monday so you have until then to comment. Hopefully everyone has had (or will have) a great weekend.

In The Jungle…

The mighty lion sleeps tonight!

My dear cat actually is nothing like a lion. He really is a big tame whiny pussy cat. He did live up to be everything I wanted though. I wanted a large cat that was fluffy with blue eyes and who liked to talk a lot. He morphed into that.
Cato actually grew up to be quite fluffy.

I’d always thought the lion hair cut was adorable. I mean, a mini lion? What gets better than that?! Yesterday, my two cats went to the groomer. I haz a lion now. He has been strutting around the house with his poofed tail in the air. He really is the right color and does have a very lion look to him….until he meows. 
His sister was also pampered and seemed to enjoy it too.

Easy Off

Kristian Beverly4 Comments

I was commissioned to paint a custom model of CLG Surfer’s Blue Moon by a fellow owner. She was almost done and I really liked her paint job. She just needed details to be done. So I decided to do a matte seal layer. But once I sprayed, I realized that there was a weird foggy film and some of the paint began to come off.

While I really liked the eyes, I couldn’t preserve the paint so it was time to strip. Not clothes. Paint. I ran out and grabbed Easy-Off.

I sprayed the foal’s body with Easy-Off (this has a very strong smell…fyi) and put her into a plastic bag to sit.
I checked on her every 20-30 minutes. I didn’t want the easy off to eat through the plastic! After about 1 1/2-2 hours the paint was coming off and I washed the model off. The paint left is the original paint (a lot of that came off too during stripping). So it’s back to square one, but I’m glad the stripping went just as planned.
