In honor of Valentine's Day, I thought it would be fun to give away one of the new "Summer Storm" plaques. Now if I had been planning ahead properly, I would have glazed one in some holiday-appropriate color like red or pink. (Though I must admit that pink is a little too "My Little Pony" for my tastes - no offense, Addi!)
Anyway, this guy is a pretty soft teal color. He's one of the first tests I pulled from the mold, so his detail is nice and crisp.
What I'll do is draw a winner from the names that appear in the comments. So if you'd like to be entered, just add your name to the comments, and I'll randomly pick from the entries.

Hi Lesli,
You do such lovely work.

Love the Summer Storm plaque! She has such a sweet face, and looks like the perfect backyard horse, or pony. I really like the color you used, too.
Very nice plaque. Happy Valentines Day to you, too. Here's a funny comic for the day, easy to identify with if you're a female. :)

I like it! Love the color too.
Watch out for those candy hearts - a batch of custom ones for my company killed a filling last week! (Figures!)

What a pretty boy! Can I have him, please? ;)

I think I prefer the turquoise color to red or pink. It's very pretty!
Happy Valentine's day. I much prefer this color to pink :) Thanks for offering the give away.
Incredible presence and alovely color, Lesli. May your next few weeks caffeine free be an enlightening experience for you
What fun! Happy Valentine's Day Lesli. :-)
Hope you had a Happy Valentine's Day, Lesli. The plaque looks fantastic in teal, and you're right about pink.
Oh so much better then pink! It looks spectacular Lesli!! Awesome idea for a Valentines day give away!!
Rayvin Brewer
Very nice, and a great color still allows all your details to show through.
~Jackie H.~
I LOVE LOVE LOVE That guy!! You did a beautiful Job Leslie!
Gorgeous model, it's been a pleasure to watch it's creation, and the colour is just lovely!
Very pretty!
Very Pretty!
Your abilities astound me! Do you ever give classes or seminars? I would love to learn firsthand from a master.
Donna Harmony
He looks like he's thinking about which of the conversation hearts to eat. Great color!
Skye
Skye - if you thought he was looking to eat one or two, you should have seen Emma while I was taking the picture. At least, I hope what she was thinking about tasting was the candies and not the plaque!
Donna - I have done seminars in the past, but they were mostly on the subject of horse color. I'd love the opportunity, though. I think the model horse community needs more workshop type events!
Bonnie - I hugged my dog, but Sprinkles had to do without because it was just too cold to be outside. I'm so ready for spring!
And thank you everyone who complimented the plaque and the Spinnies, and who wished me well. It made a great V-day even better! I am blessed to have such good friends and customers!
