Last month we saw the chestnut leopard appaloosa G1 Quarter Horse Stallions from this set, this week we have the dapple grey G1 Citations.



As with the splatter painted appaloosa patterns from last month, the bubble dappling technique, too, yields random results. These models are lightly misted with water before being painted. When the paint dries, the water is wiped away and the white, round dapples remain. I love the bare patch on the mare with the fine dapples; I wonder if someone's thumb wiped her dry there before painting.
