About Me

Nice to meet you! My name is Ruby Situ and I like making things!

I also used ride in real life! Unfortunately I haven't been able to since going to university, but I plan on returning to it in the future. Here is a picture of me at my last barn riding a school horse, Sammy.

Me riding Sadie bareback as she does a tiny crow hop. She was a school pony but she felt like my own because I was one of the only people who rode her. Fun fact: I cried when she retired and her owner took her back to Oregon.

Here's Sadie again

I specialize in drastic custom model horses, but I do all forms of art not involving horses as well. I mainly work with breyer horses but also dabble in artist resins as well and have my own artist resin release "Triton" limited to 45 pieces and is for sale on my ebay. I love everything wacky, fun, and colorful. I do both realism and fantasy, but I find fantasy to be way more fun.

Yes, I do commissions, send me a message. However its important to know that I am very hesitant about doing portraits of real horses. Your horse deserves a perfect portrait, but I am specialized in fantasy customs and there are hundreds of model horse artists who are specialized in realistic repaints who would be a much safer option to replicate your horse perfectly in mini.

I have only a small portion of my work posted here, but I am always working to add more. This is a my own custom coded website so if something breaks please let me know!

Some terms to know

Custom Model Horse:: Taking a plastic horse and changing it in anyway, such as repainting it.
Drastic Custom Model Horse:: Making drastic changes. Such as cutting off or fully removing parts of the horse to replace it either with parts from a different horse or sculpting new parts from clay. This process can involve the original model being chopped up into a dozen pieces before being put back together into something completly unrecognizable.
Artist Resin: Limited sculpts created by individual artists then cast and molded. Usually limited to 25-100 pieces. They tend to be quite expensive because you are paying for something really special. I've seen painted artist resins selling for up to 6 thousand dollars, while unpainted traditional sized ones hover around the 200-600 dollar mark. These are beautiful and unique pieces, always much higher quality then what companies produce.
Traditional:: Refers to horses around 12x9 inches large or 1/9 scale.
Classic:: Refers to horses around 9x6 inches large or 1/12 scale.
Stablemate:: Refers to horses aound 4x3 inches small or 1/32 scale.
Micro:: Refers to horses around 1 inch small or 1/64 scale.
