Breyer Virtual Fun Day - Painting Sabinos

10/17/2020

This October, I had the opportunity to join Breyer Horses on their Instagram account for a livestream painting session. With all that is happening in 2020, Breyer converted their usual painting fun days held at tack stores and Breyer dealers nationwide to an online-only event, #breyervirtualfunday. I thought this was a great opportunity for everyone, everywhere, to join in on the fun from their own homes and learn new techniques too.
If you missed the livestream, don't worry!  I created a full-length video tutorial that is now on Breyer's website and their YouTube channel, and you can click below to begin watching now! 

Supply List:

For Prepping and Priming:
- Ultra-fine automotive sandpaper (approximately 320-400 grit)
- Ultra-fine automotive sandpaper (approximately 600 grit)
- Primer suited for use on plastic (the video demonstrates Duplicolor Sandable Primer)
- Dish soap
- Baking soda or non-bleach Comet, Ajax or Bartenders Friend (wear gloves while using)
- Manual toothbrush (any kind)

For Painting:
- Titanium white paint in your brand of choice (or other bright white)*
- Titan buff paint, or other creamy, off-white paint*
- Small square or filbert brush
- Small round brush
- Smaller liner brush
- Small jar with lid for containing paint mixture
- Sealer (Testors Dullcoat is recommended) 

For Safety:
- A mask rated for particulates (for prepping only)**
- A mask rated for vapor paints (for priming)
- Plastic gloves (avoid latex if allergic)

Optional Handy Supplies:
- Pearly or metallic white paint
- White charcoal pencil
- Bondo Glazing and Spot Putty
- Needle sanding files
- Double-sided foam mounting tape (for sticking models to objects while painting)

* Artist grade paints are recommended for best results as they create the truest application of pigment, but certainly not required (Golden Fluid and Vallejo is demonstrated in the video)
** If on a budget, it is possible to skip the purchase of the particulate mask and instead use the vapor mask for both prepping, priming and painting
