Horses of a Different Color "Mini Portraits"

Many Breyer Horse Models have been created as portraits of actual horses: Secretariat, Cigar, Man O War, Justin Morgan, and Khemosabi just to name a few. Even some we might have known: Pay-N-Go, Hollywood Dun It, Dun Gotta Gun, Domino, and Rugged Lark.

You can have a custom portrait of your horse on a Breyer? Your own horse in a portrait sculpture, in full color. I need adequate photographs of your horse from all sides to properly reproduce the markings.

Mini Portraits are available in Stablemates (2-1/2" - 3") from $150.00, Paddock Pals (5") from $200.00, Classic (8") and Traditional size (9" - 10") from $300.00. Breyer Model is not included in the price. You can supply it or I can buy it.
Portrait models can be serious or humorous as you will see.
Paints, Appaloosas and special markings extra.
Re-working or manes and tails or braiding $25.00 for each customization.
Call 281-373-9304 or email: portraits@texhorseman.com for more information.
