Customs by Sarah Minkiewicz-Breunig
What can I say about Sarah that hasn't already been said? She burst into the model hobby about a dozen years ago & quickly revolutionized the state of the art, taking customizing to new heights. Never one to be stuck up or stingy with information, Sarah has also been willing to share her knowledge and techniques via a booklet published some years back by Cascade Models and an ongoing column in "the Hobby Horse News". She is, in my opinion, THE BEST in the hobby and her work must truly be seen in person to be appreciated - photos just do not capture the amount of detail on these pieces. Needless to say her work is highly sought after, commands hefty prices and pretty much mops up in the show arena.

FEATURE - - The most recent addition to my collection, this is a Breyer Misty resculpted, painted and haired by Sarah to a dun Norweigian
Fjord stallion, this piece is an early work that was the first of her customs that I ever got to
"meet" in person back at the 1991 York Pennsylvania Breyerfest and so holds quite a bit of
sentimental value to me. He is also heavily inspired my first resin!

shaded pale chestnut drafter. (1996)
