Hoofin’ It
Some hoove action going on with the pig today, pretty tough making two toes and a dewclaw out of a solid round leg, but they turned out really neat – and will look even better when hair is smoothed out over the edges.

Pig Progress
This side of the pig depicts a feed farm, there’s a specific John Deere tractor by the front barn, and a farmer pouring feed into a trough beside the barn. The underpainting for both sides are complete. The other side (below) are feed bags in a pile of feed, they’ll have lettering detailed to match […]

Oink Oink
Thought I’d better get a pic before daylight is gone – I’ll continue painting today, but I promised a progress shot, so here it is! By the way, pigs DO have hair. Fur. Whatever you want to call it, they’ve got it, and I’ll be painting it.

How Fresh?
Now to dive right into matters that are gross and disgusting. Do you see what I see? Yes, that’s it, that enlarged circle right there. I just returned from the grocery store where I bought this NIB, NBO (non-ebayers, that’s code for New In Box, Never Been Opened) “Fresh” Brush. Fresh? Not So Much. Not […]
