Description Kismet is a ooak (one of a kind) appaloosa gypsy vanner sculpture. He is about 5 inches long and 7 inches tall to the top of his ears. He is completely hand sculpted from polymer clay over a wire and foil armature, painted in acrylic, and haired using a mohair blend. 


Kismet was my holiday project and took a lot longer than expected but I really like how he came out. I spent longer painting him than I did sculpting him! I had a few other horses in the works that I wanted to do in different appaloosa patterns but did not get to finish them, though I hope to work on them throughout the year. Two weeks off at Christmas was not enough, and we don't get another break until August. 


Kismet gave me some new challenges and I think I learned a lot working on him. He was really fun to do! He is sort of my "dream" horse, combining my favourite colour and one of my favourite breeds ever. 


Kismet is for sale, his price is high because of the time he took to paint and the fact that I quite like him and am happy to hold onto him. Here is the etsy link: www.etsy.com/shop/scenceable

thanks for looking!

This is very beautiful, I couldn't tell weather or not that was real but it's very convincing though.

What do you mean sculpture!! I would sooner believe it's a miniature horse than a sculpture. You must be a god.

This is a fabulous horse! I would love to be able to buy him, but I currently cannot afford to do so. However, you did a superb job on him. He looks so realistic! I'm also a fan of sculpting, and I hope to eventually make some horse sculptures of my own in time. And without question, stunning works like yours will greatly inspire me for a long time to come!

Whoa- looks like a photo of a real horse! Thought it was, from the thumbnail. The way the mane and tail look...so realistic, it looks matted and worn like real horse hair does. <33
