Ah, one of my best rides ever was on a leopard appaloosa....what great memories and a gorgeous sculpt~

[@starbatcraft]

Thank you! That's great, they are amazing, I also rode a perfect little leopard. I need to paint more for sure. 🥰

[@firegodessreiko]

@@starbatcraft Gorgeous, but definitely looks labor intensive. Lol I definitely understand if you don't want to do them too often. You do good work either way! 😃

[@CreativeKristenTaylor]

There’s something so mesmerizing about watching the spots soften from the pencils and pastels 😍

[@GreyEquineOfficial]

Hi Kristen!

[@Sunshin373]

When she was doing the white base coat he looked really good that would be a pretty coat color maybe for one of her others I love that color lol

[@surething7922]

Well done, thank you for sharing❤

[@hopalstudiosjuliehattis]

Appie's are my favorite to paint. But Oh My Gosh girl, the detail you put into this one and to make it look easy..... Just WOW! He's a very handsome boy. ❤😊 Beautiful work.

[@rebekab1579]

I've binge-watched all your customizing videos and it drives me nuts that you don't have a bigger following! These are so relaxing to listen to/watch and your work is AH-mazing. Keep it up!!

[@coral4826]

There's something just so calming about your videos 💜

[@EmLovesCamaros]

RIGHT?! I love watching these before bed, clears my head before a day at school :)

[@blackbird163]

Incredible job

[@stellayourmok428]

Wow! This is so cool I’m jealous! You did great work on this guy! I mean this is what you call art!💖

[@thegoblinsteed3558]

He is PHENOMENAL!!!!!! 🖤🖤🖤

[@robinlafreniere6857]

❤ just beautiful 😊

[@caissymax]

So glad I found your channel! These are the sorta videos I didn’t even know I wanted! Your painting is so beautiful and now I find myself avidly waiting to see what you do next! :D

[@sherrykloster7489]

You are so talented!!! It's beautiful 😊

[@Barry-plays]

Omg you never seem to disappoint he is stunning keep up the good work

[@Red_Cat4888]

I love this sculpt and what you did with it, thunderbutt is such a fitting name! I especially love your fantasy kelpie and Pegasus videos, and would love to see more. Might I suggest a hippocampus of tangie?

[@starbatcraft]

Thank you! I totally want to make a hippocampus, they are awesome!

[@hylianflower9681]

This is amazing!! I would love to see you make Epona from the zelda series. Shes pretty basic but gorgeous!!

[@starbatcraft]

She is cute! I still haven't played breath of the wild 😅

[@ShintogaDeathAngel]

I know it’s a little late, but I think it might be cool if you did a custom horse to look like your intro bat, for Halloween one day. It’s really cute.

[@starbatcraft]

I mean, never too late for more Halloween content haha, but that would be cool, maybe on a pony?

[@lineesa]

been binging your videos for a few days! love your work! the sculpt for some reason gives me strong sso embermane vibes. he turned out so beautiful

[@starbatcraft]

Thank you! OMG he does look like embermane, was also thinking Skyrim shadowmere 😆

[@valeriehartman3580]

Wow! He’s incredible!!

[@coyoteclockworkstudios3140]

Do Norikers have pink sclera? I know that spots or leopard complex can arise spontaneously from Spanish/Iberian horses, which would have influenced mustangs and the Appaloosa. Just curious if the gene is the same. Love this guy! I have a mini black appy blanket Thunderbutt so I want to do a big one like this! It's good to see they're still making him.

[@starbatcraft]

I'm definitely no expert, but I think it's the same lp gene, they have the mottled skin and striped hooves too. Yes!! He is so good in spots.

[@sarastevens9553]

Hey! I’m new to your channel and I like the Schleich/collecta horses and I have my own 3d printer, can you maybe link the horse you 3d printed please? If you do thanks! ( btw ur tack is amazing, so are ur beautiful customs I would so pay for!)

[@starbatcraft]

Thank you! He is a resin cast, I bought him from Resins by Randy through the artist. 😊 It's hard finding horse files for printing, a lot of people sculpt their own.

[@TheNordicOutlaw]

I am really loving your videos! Where does one order from Resins by Randy?

[@starbatcraft]

Thank you! It looks like their website is down, I ordered directly from Kitty Cantrell by email for this guy. Here is a good list for resins: modelhorseartisanguide.weebly.com/sculptors--artist-resins.html

[@karenphillips8197]

Can I ask what air brush you use.? And could you say what colours of brown you used 😊

[@starbatcraft]

It's an azteca, they are long discontinued, I recently upgraded to an iawata eclipse though and that's easier to clean. I believe it was mahogany brown, black, and red.

[@farrierette5216]

I try reporting Creative Kristen for impersonating your videos and they say Star bat crafts dosnt exist???

[@farrierette5216]

There is someone stealing your videos on here. I thought you changed your name. Now I can't remember the name now. Creative something I will try and find it for you. Nobody should take credit for another artists work. I had someone sighn a painting of mine.

[@starbatcraft]

Oh that's crazy, definitely let me know if you remember, maybe in your history if you clicked on it?

[@farrierette5216]

Creative kristen Taylor!

[@farrierette5216]

Damn we as artists don't get enough credit for our work without someone stealing videos! I called her out in the comments why are you stealing star bat crafts videos?

[@farrierette5216]

Creative Kristen Taylor is taking credit for your work. A keen eyed artist fan of you spotted this fake.

[@Juliatenartysta]

@@farrierette5216 Absolutely no hate here, but where did you spot her taking credit for her work? I’m pretty sure she is original in all videos and shorts. Would you please point out in which video?
