Thread: finishing touches being done today on DareDevil (8ft rearing horse)

Tweet

Well, she is almost ready to be moved to the front yard and have a rider mounted on her back. This horse has taken me almost 2 months to create and I am ready to move on to another project, let me tell ya I loved the challenge of building my first prop with no plans or diagrams, this was a real mind boggler but I can now say I have built a horse from scratch. Add that to my bucket list. happy halloween everyone if I don't post again but I hope to add more pics of Daredevil with her rider and the all the lighting. Lets all cross our fingers for a dry halloween

Congrats on finishing a tough prop. I bet it looks great. Have a pic?

Here's the picture: (lollypopholly hope you don't mind if I posted it for ya)

Horse looks terrific!

WOW!! I love that!! great job!!

aww thank you. I still don't know how to do that. Tonight DareDevil was moved to the front yard. Now tomorrow she gets her tail and her rider then she is ready. I am exhausted but happy

You've done a fantastic job, you'll be able to breath a sigh if relief when you get finished tomorrow, but all that hard work really paid off

Hi Holly! I finally made it over to the forum to check out your photos. DareDevil looks awesome! Very realistic, did you have live reference? I love the mane, something else I never got around to adding to mine. Lace and I are super impressed; I'm sure you'll get many years of love out of her, and lots of repeat gawkers!
