I've found ...I empathise with your equine woes. I've found my experiences and (non-)preferences to be similar - if there's any way to avoid mounting a miniature on something, that's the road I will take.<br /><br />I think it also has something to do with the extra time commitment when painting a model. I have a fairly consistent attention span when it comes to finishing a miniature off - if it takes more than two weeks or so of painting bursts every few days, then I lose interest and want to start something else. A mount of any sort messes with that time frame (as do overtly detailed minis). I'd much rather have two completed models over the same period.Idle Doodlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17826092663336089385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341589131708835949.post-2565143012886801002017-10-23T06:25:24.780-07:002017-10-23T06:25:24.780-07:00Horses are a pain to paint so I know what you mean...Horses are a pain to paint so I know what you mean.

It's extremely challenging getting the tones right, but I do think you've been a bit too hard on yourself - the only thing I could possibly suggest is maybe some white above the hooves on a few of the legs. The model itself is pretty weak IMHO, the neck looks all kinds of off and no horse has a tail that short lol!
