kids wooden horse

[XZOTIC INK]

every once and awhile, someone so kind decides to come along, near my little set up on the streets and brings me something cool to airbrush or add to my collection to sell..Well heres my newbie, and its beautiful, all it needs is 2 screws on the bottom because 2 legs are a little loose, other than that, hell yes, i will take it and spray it, than maybe the perfect kid will come by and ill just give it away!! I know im a sucker for kids, plus i got it for free, and i just enjoy airbrushing so i dont mind at all giving it to the first kid i see, its a new challenge and a great practice piece!!:party:

Hey that's spiffy!..I'd be tempted to keep it old looking...I'm a sucker for stuff with character.

At the same time...Nothing would light up a kids eyes like a shiny new pony!

...Points for you,hahaha!:partyalone:

Maybe a fine line??....spiff it up all clean and new like, Without any bright colors...Still AB on it but subtle blending type stuff???.......Just something off the top of my Bean:speechless-smiley-0

it wont happen now, ab'ing it, only one project at a time, but i worry that ill always screw stuff up, i dont want it to turn out ugly!

What ever you do with it, not counting putting in some new screws, looks like this pony is just getting broke in. Lotsa miles left on that one.

LOL, Can't count how many times i've thought that...Gotta just let that thought bail...I get yelled at a lot by friends and fam for thinking like that..They just say "suck it up and do it. Cuz you can!".....Can't argue with that.:thumbsup:

If ya screw up blame it on them..hahahaha!

If it's a real old antique, maybe it's better to leave it the way it is. But if it's only a few years old, then I would say "paint it"! It should look real cool painted.

That's a good lookin lil horse,,,
however you decide to finish,,
it should look Great !!!
It also brought to mind the spring
horses,,, plentiful,, and very saleable
when worked on a tad !!!
Make Carousel Horses out of them !!!
Cut a hole in the center,,, PVC pipe thru
it and cap the PVC with curtain rod caps !!!
The holes where the springs were is easily
filled with body filler and smoothed,, then
paint your Carousel,,, put a hook on the
top to hang by,, and Waa Laa,,,
a Genuine Carousel Horse !!!:partyalone:

Natalie thats a cute little horse looks like it was made in the early 90's they were popular then some had yarn manes some had leather if you paint it and don't like it sand it down and antique it.. but I would just airbrush a bridle a saddle and the hooves change the mane and tail to leather add a few studds here and there and make sure you glue the joints that are a little loose..
Have fun!!!!!

Whit, brilliant! I think I might have one or two of those in storage somewhere. Thanks for the idea bro!
