I love your tutorials!! They're easy to follow & are so clear to understand ❤️

I just recently got a duplicate of the 1st thoroughbred filly I ever bought with my own money. The new one has white hooves that I'm pretty sure we're somebody's custom work. But that's all she has. I'm still so thankful you've made tutorials and videos. You're showing me its OK to not be "perfect" 100% of the time. Forever grateful

Thank you so much for your tutorials. You are so generous to do them! Really appreciate it!

Love the descriptions. And thank for you for supply links too.

Very helpfull! I love your tuturials so much! They are clear to understand and very helpfull!

I love the work you do on instagram; I paint model horses quite often for commissions and for myself, and I have done a lot with stripping paint and fretting over getting all the paint off...but I learned recently that sanding like you explain doesn't even effect the quality of my work. I spent so much extra time stripping that I feel silly but happy I learned and practiced this! My whites have also improved SIGNIFICANTLY since watching your whites painting tutorial. Thank you for all the work you do to make these videos!!

GOD I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!

Thank you so much for this tutorial!

This help me a lot! Thanks!

This really helped a lot! Thank you so much! Amazing tutorial! :)

TheMystic Breyers needs to see this....

Good stuff! I'd add a fan to blow the spray downwind, a proper spray painting mask, and a portable small ceramic heater (not too close) to the models to speed drying. If you set them on silicone mats (as in for cooking) they should not stick. Rustoleum is awesome, have used it for many outdoor projects and it does not die.

I’ve been customizing for years and every single model I’ve done I’ve had to start over. I haven’t produced a single horse I’m proud of. 😂 I have like 7 or 8 horses I have in a bucket because I gotta get my customizing game on. I’m waiting until after I move though because customs are chalky and easy to scratch.

I love your tutorials 0:09 please tutorial this color please.

Can you do a tutorial on how to remove parts of a model for re sculpting? I can't find one anywhere

Hi!! Thank you so much for your great tutorials! I have a question: In an original traditional or classical breyer model, for customizing it, is it neccesarily to strip the whole model for repainting? or it's just fine to sand it a little bit and then apply the primer over the existing original paint that the models come from? Thank you so much!

love your video. Learned so much. What kind of paint do you use after priming?

I have just recently started to explore with painting models, I have started with the unpainted stablemates, before watching this tutorial I did use very fine sandpaper removed the logo and seams, the only type of primer I had available was a gesso. Do you notice a major difference in the finish? Also is it difficult to remove and start all over again? I dont have a drummer but I have a nail art tool for acrylic nails and I found it worked really well at removing the seams of the model in tight places! I started my very first model the other day on the rearing Andalusian. I noticed a heavy groove on his nose, concave. Would that be an opportunity to use epoxy sculpt? I have some knowledge as an art school student but my major was photo/film. I took sculpting and painting but never on plastic or resin etc. So im feeling my way around a bit! I love your tutorials! You are such a beautiful talented young woman! I wish I stuck with my love of horses! I am looking to learn and grow and enjoy every last minute of this reignited hobby! I also wanted to put a warning out there for others looking to buy cheaper models of favorite retired molds, I recently googled Gypsy Vanner which i love to see if i could find one reasonable to repaint etc when I did and you hit view all and see this in stock green I curiously visited. This site used the same models and of the Othello mold and esprit mold yet called them all GV! I thought that strange so tried contacting them, no reply so I did a search of the URL and name. Scam!!!! I am very meticulous before I spend esp if they dont offer paypal! I just wanted to give newer hobbyists like myself a warning buyer beware sometimes a good deal is too good to be true! I have been looking a while and I know these molds usually would never go under 100$ but I couldn’t help but get excited when I saw the 41.88 tag on it! But also on the stablemates and every other retired mold. Seemed strange! I was right! IDK how to report but these sharks are out there waiting to prey on enthusiasts esp cash poor ones! Its hard enough building up our collections and equipment to custom! So I thank you for your wonderful videos and hope to learn with and meet others like myself! We must look out for each other! Young new experienced and the like! I love your patient technique btw! I get so anxious and excited when i start but Im falling in love with the process! I have a ways to go before I show anything yet! Thank you again DeeJayBe! You have a new fan, and fellow hobbyist! I do have one last question, have you ever attempted to sculpt before? Its not easy, and its something Id like to try with horses this tike around! blessings and beautiful painting to everyone!

Hi! So My model horse is dried and sticky using the same primer. Is there any way I could fix it? It’s my first time using primer.

How does your primer not stay sticky? I'm using this one but it stays sticky for days to weeks even with the thinnest of coats

I see that you are only prepping bodies that are matte finish. Do Glossy figures require any different attention before priming them?

Oh and you should do the cutie mark first just a helpful tip

What scale is this horse?

Thank you for your videos! They have been so helpful getting me started! I have a glossy Copperfox and was considering a custom design, but I'm not sure how to strip the gloss? Is that possible?

So I did get hold of rust-oleum primer I finished priming him earlier and I intend to use pastels on him. However when he had just dried I caught my grandmother touching him after I told her not to because of oils on her hand. Is there a way to remove those marks before I use my pastels? If not I had the idea that I could turn him into a paint to remove the marks of her finger prints that will show up in the pastels. Do you have any advice on fixing it before the pastel phase or should I cover them up with white markings?

Hello do the same rules of prepping Breyer apply to the collecta horses? I bought the Andalusian stallion grey and they paint is coming off the mane in rubbery pieces as if it never adhered to the model. What is the best way to get rid of this thick paint?

Should i sand it down and add a new air hole and cover up the air hole even if I’m using chalk pastels?

How would you prime a model that has textured fur, like Le Fire for example?

that is, if I have a Breyer factory model, can I just coat it with a primer and repaint it?

If I tried to Custom my Breyer horse and used Acrylic paint on its legs and face how do I get that Paint off? - sandpaper?

So I have been considering getting my first model I can’t get a hold of primer since no art stores in the U.K. seem to sell it at least ones near me. Would white acrylics work in fine watered down layers to limit brush strokes?

what temp would be the best to prime in?

should i prime BEFORE sculpting or after?

Will this work with schliech? (Please answer, if do thank you)😊

Can you paint a My Little Pony G3 character on a Breyer and if you do look up the cartoon art to help

This sounds dumb but would you wait the full 24 hours to then prime the tail areas you missed because you were holding onto them?

❤🍭❤🍭❤🍭

Would a nail file work for sanding seams?

What state do you live in. I live Ohio we have snow on the ground

Is there anything you can use if you don’t have primer?

Is primer necessary?

Does this work for Schleich models?

Just curious are you allowed to sell custom painted breyer horses?

Why do you remove the heads?!!!!😱😵😮😲

Don’t fill in the hole! It will cause the model to bloat or shrink!

4:02 and 4:09 WRONG?

You don’t have to tell us what to do
