This is an in-depth look at my process as I drastically customize/kit bash the Breyer Proud Arabian Mare that I made for National Model Painting Month (NAMOPAIMO) 2022. I share all my steps for techniques like repositioning, making her back longer, sculpting a new neck from Milliput epoxy putty, sculpting new hair and face details, and preparing for paint!
