Those of you who have been waiting for the customs I've been promising this month... the good news is that a few have already been posted and several more will be finished this week. They're a mixture of Halloween (because I know how much y'all love those glowies!), Easter, a new whale series that I'm doing and a couple St. Patrick's Day limited editions. I know, I know, I'm late on those but better late than never. Truth be told I came down sick a week ago and everything got put behind. I'm feeling better now, although still regaining my strength, but my art table is full. I'll give you a sneak peek: Luck of the Irish is currently on eBay and Mercari. Pot o' Gold will be on this weekend. I'll see how these sell before I decide to do any more St. Patrick's Day customs in future. My Halloweenies will continue on my Halloween Around the World series with Hoia Forest, Catacombs (I will have a traditional and stablemate version of this guy) and Mummified for Egypt. Hoia Forest and Mummified are currently on eBay. I have a Classics American Dream that's a part of this series which includes a Hocus Pocus theme called "Salem" along with a stablemate from the English witch trials named Burning Time, both of which will be posted this weekend. My whales series includes Orca and Narwhal to start with, both of which will also be posted this weekend. Finally, I have a few Easter decorators: Egg Hunt (gold leopard appaloosa with colored egg spots), Egg Dye (gold with rainbow colored drips), Signs of Spring (Easter bunnies, chicks and lambs galore), Easter Splash (rainbow decorator with chick and rabbit shaped splash pattern) and The Meaning (a biblical scene on the Nikolas mold). Some of these will be posted this weekend, others I'm still working on. I appreciate your support in my artwork! Now to catch up on recent sneak peeks and a test run that was offered to Collector Club members. I never enter for the test runs but I am excited to see this colorway used, as it looks much more realistic than Breyer's newer sabino patterns, even though they said it was an older type sabino pattern. He was a bargain being a OOAK for only $1200 to whomever was lucky to win him. We also got a couple new random sneak peeks for Breyerfest after going weeks without much of a peep from Breyer about Breyerfest. I'm going to guess these are either raffle models or contest prizes, because I'm pretty sure they've shown us everything that will be available to us to buy. The first one looks like a bay version of Forever Saige, which I really hope not because then she'd be out for my surprise guess (and y'all know how I feel about Forever Saige) while the other is likely the stablemate reserve custom contest prize on what looks like the new Clydesdale Stallion mold or Giorgio. Both of them have that huge chunky shoulder, and they'd fit the theme being draft horses. Waiting patiently until Monday - hopefully - to find out for sure. Apparently Breyer is finally mailing out club welcome letters so keep an eye out if you're in any of the specialty clubs. I've only seen the Vintage Club letter arrive on social media so far, and admittedly not much information was given, but there were a few things that were intriguing. We already know three of the four releases: the music box, which Breyer does say in the letter wasn't going to be the first release as many of us originally thought; Go Figure whom Breyer tells about being the first pinto pattern on the Justin Morgan mold; the gold Secretariat which Breyer describes in the letter as "another 50th anniversary celebration"; a fiesty gambler's choice; and for the optional horse they just say it will be a black tie affair. Hmmm... wonder what all this means? The stablemate was said to be Anton a glossy shaded alabaster leaping Lipizzan, which I'm assuming might be a new mold since the only Lipizzan we have is Darwin and he's rearing, not leaping. Some exciting things to look forward to! I can't wait to see the Premier Club welcome letter!
