WIP Wednesday ~ Roans Everywhere

YES. I know it's Thursday. The auto post feature failed me lol.

I thought it might be fun to do a little Wednesday feature on some of my work in progress models! I have a lot of roans in my studio right now, and today's post will put a spotlight on two very special little mares.

This model is a really fun piece that I'm working on for KellieRae Turnmire. She commissioned me to do a mini me of a custom Traditional Indian Pony that she painted. Isn't she cute? 

Here's her reference pic:

I'm having a lot of fun working with this model, as roans are one of my favorites to paint. This little lady needs several more layers of white and some dark shading to go before she can get details!

The other wip for today's post is this pretty paint G4 Quarter Horse, who is for Michele L.!

Right now she looks more like a cloudy bay, but she's on her way to being fully roaned! She has at least 5 more layers before she's truly recognizable. She's to be a pretty purple roan tobiano, inspired by a sort of blending between these two references. 💜

I have four other commissions on the table at the moment, but I'll save them for another post! Hint: Two of them are spotted ✨
