Leaving for now, and commissions closed.

Journal Entry: Mon May 7, 2012, 7:00 AM


My baby is due in two weeks, as such I've shut down my Etsy store and removed my eBay listings.

Please do not send inquiries regarding commissions as they are closed indefinitely. Current commissions will be completed. If you need to contact me please use my email address: Indigoocean@gmail.com , NOT the dA note system, which I rarely check.

I'll be uploading a last few pieces of art I'm working on here, then I'll probably be back in 18 years lol.

*edit* Baby is now due on May 17th as she's breech and I'm having to have a c-section. Got even less time than I thought!

Hey, I have a question... I have a Smart Chic Olena Breyer that has chipped ears... Do you think you could help me fix them?

Your webcam is just the smack in the face I needed to get motivated again. I am looking to get custom models of my two favorite war ponies, but maybe I'll take that leap and try it myself. Thank you so much for sharing!

Also, I very much LOVE your unicorns and fantasy creatures. You do fabulous work!

Since you love horse or unicron I suggest the Movie War Horse and maybe even a sculpt of him?

I've just begun to get into customizing horses and was wondering what you thought the best primer was for pasteling/customizing a breyer/schleich horse? Will just plain old white acrylic work or is there something special you need that helps with longevity of the horses custom?

Hope that all came out coherently lol. Any help would be awesome!

I have a question about your Resin works.
How do you make them so well? What is your step by step? Because I only know how to make molds XD

It'd be cool to see a tutorial by you on how you do it <3

You're so talented!
I love your sculptures, they're all amazing. I've never seen the resin water before, I'm so fascinated by your work with that effect :)
I hope that one day I will be able to buy your work :)

Sorry for my English, I'm still learning it ^^

let me just start by saying I really REALLY like your work. but I feel compelled to tell you that it loses something when you add the hair to it. I don't know, maybe I'm too picky, but it seems to go from "Wonderful!" to "not another barbie pony!" in seconds. At least it does for me. I would really love to see you sculpt some mane/tail work, but that's just my opinion.
I repeat, no offense intended, I just thought I'd mention it.

That's right, I like- real fur, paintball, mucking horse stalls, BIG dogs, trebuchets, chainmail, real leather, and the sound of bagpipes! BITE ME!
