Custom resculpted and painted Peter Stone Arabian Mare.

"Farida Najwa"

Top and bottom lip sculpted for more definition to the mouth. Nose reduced in size slightly for a more feminine look. Head and neck straightened and lowered. Ears carved and slightly enlarged to resemble a mare. Entire mane and original forelock removed and resculpted in locks alterating either side of the neck. New forelock added. Tail extended and resculpted. Enhanced detailed sculpted area anal and full mare anatomy. Back leg turned out. All four hooves carved out and antiqued.

Painted in pastels and acrylics. Base coat golden cream with multiple shades of chocolate brown dapples on the back, neck, shoulder, rump, chest and faintly on the stomach layering darker and darker for depth. One white sock on the front leg. Flesh pink and dark nose. Light antiqued chestnuts. Darkened mare mammories with black and flesh speckled genitalia. Black hooves. Mane and tail in multiple shades of cream, white with faint beige mixed in and pasteled in warm nutmeg.

Eyes done in multiple shades of brown with highlights and low tones. Reddish brown fleshy sclera with white haze. White highlights.

Real metal horse shoes antiqued in black for definition. Nail marks along hooves.

(Gloss added to the muzzle and sides of nose up along the face and around eyes to mimic oiled areas done in arabian halter showing.)
