Show-Ready Puffin - Shetland Mare Resin
Best In Show goes to: the itchy Shetland! 'Show-Ready Puffin' is the clipped and braided version of a Shetland mare. She has button braids and butt wrinkles to boot as she desperately reaches to nibble that one itchy spot.
This pristine counterpart of her shaggy sister is envisioned to be a child's mount, waiting to be tacked up for a gymkhana or local dressage show, fresh off the horsebox.
Performance showers, do not fear! Show-Ready Puffin has been designed with a gap between her chunky neck and head, as well as a bridlepath to make space for headwear.
Finishes
- Each model is hollow 3D printed in one piece with 3mm walls in ABS-like resin for Traditional/1:9 scale, and flex resin for Venti/1:20 and Stablemate/1:32 scales.
- Semi-prepped models will have any mild imperfections sanded & filled with Citadel Liquid Green Stuff and drain holes filled. One bloat hole will remain to ensure that gases can escape the model, aiding any expansion/warping. I strongly advise that you do not fill this hole for the sake of the model's longevity and archiveability. Please note that, although I will do my best to correct any flaws, prints in this finish are ordered with the expectation some additional prep work may be needed prior to painting.
- Raw models will be shipped in freshly-cured print condition, with all imperfections unsanded, and drain & bloat holes unfilled. These models may need significant prep work prior to painting.
Scales
- Traditional (1:9), 120mm tall to ear tips.
- Venti (1:20), 60mm tall to ear tips.
- Stablemate (1:32), 40mm tall to ear tips.
Availability
- Sold as an open run, meaning there is no limit on the number of copies produced. Limited quantities may be released during the first few runs due to supplier availability.
- The model may be intermittently out of stock, depending on the lead times of my print provider. In the event of this, Show-Ready Puffin will still be available to purchase as an awaiting-stock pre-order.
All Wayfaring Fox Creations original sculpture resins are 3D printed. They are NOT cast.
Prints are supplied by an independent professional 3D print specialist in the North West of England with experience in creating high-quality resin 3D prints for the TV, Film & Medical industries. You can be safe in the knowledge that Wayfaring Fox Creations original 3D printed models have been thoroughly designed, cured and cleaned to ensure that they arrive to you with both the utmost care for your safety and an incredibly precise level of detail.
Models are made from an ABS-like resin for Traditional/1:9 scale, and flex resin for Venti/1:20 and Stablemate/1:32 scales. These provide a small amount of flex to increase durability - this means that the likelihood of breakage from shipping, handling and dropping is minimised significantly.
The creation process is a harmonious blend of digital design and traditional finishing techniques, ensuring every piece created is unique and meticulously crafted. I take pride in offering a comprehensive range of scales for each model that combine state-of-the-art expert 3D print modelling and hand-finishing.
3D printed models are made from liquid photopolymer resin (liquid plastic) in an SLA 3D printer, which uses lasers to cure the model layer-by-layer. Any form of resin - cast or 3D printed - has the potential to cause an allergic reaction, or irritation to the eyes, throat and skin - especially when cut or sanded. Wayfaring Fox Creations models are designed to allow for thorough curing & washing on both the inside & out of a model prior to shipment. Models are designed and printed with the guidance & overseeing of a 3D printing industry professional to minimise risk wherever possible. In that event that you experience a physical reaction, or have any concerns or questions, please contact me at rowena@wayfaringfoxcreations.com and I will be in touch as soon as possible.

For in-stock artist proof resins, despatch will be the next working day. Shipping estimates are listed at checkout, depending on your location.
A tracking number will be provided for all orders upon shipment.
I can offer same-day personal delivery in certain regions of the North of England, please contact me at rowena@wayfaringfoxcreations.com to discuss this.
Couriers are unfortunately notoriously unreliable with their handling. Models are wrapped in unbleached muslin, bamboo toilet roll and recycled bubblewrap, then placed within a secondary inner box to add structure.
I currently use Royal Mail to ship my products.
Flutter Mail is included in each purchase - this consists of freebies, discount codes and loyalty rewards. If you're purchasing a resin, a COA (certificate of authenticity) and 3D print information will also be included.
While I do take the greatest care to pack models for smooth shipment, I take no responsibility for transport damage causes by the courier(s) used.
