This sculpture was commissioned by Utterly Horses UK for their Hullabaloo 2012 event held in Newmarket at the world famous National Stud. The edition is 212 white resin copies (to represent 2012).
The "Real" foal

This is the real foal that inspired the sculpture. He is called Pintado Mikado and lives in New Zealand at Edgewater Stud owned by the Marshall Family. His owners have kindly granted me permission to use this photo on my website. Isn't he a cutie!
Sadly the Edgewater Stud web page no longer exists so I cannot provide links.
The Hullabaloo foal isn't a direct portrait of this little colt but I found this photo so influential in the design of the model that I felt it important to share it with you.

Prototype Model
This is the model on which all the copies are based, every mold is taken from this original. This model looks a bit patchy where I've worked on the grey resin with silver-grey Apoxie Sculpt. The casts will be made in pure white Artist Quality resin ready to be prepped and painted up.
