Nearly everything you ever wanted to know about painting white markings for model horses, from facial markings, to pintos, to how to keep your layers smooth & detailed.
I’ll show you the techniques I’ve found the most helpful over the years for painting photorealistic, show quality model horses. These are the tips I wish someone would have taught me when I started painting model horses.
For both acrylic & oil painters working in all scales of model horse, this tutorial also covers tips for realism and is for both beginners to the semi-advanced painter.
The techniques are demonstrated on Breyer model horses, and will also work on Schleich, Peter Stone, artist resin & others!
