Hello and, wow, last Monday post for 2024, what?!

Repositioning 101 part II - a step by step guide

Hello guys!

Two weeks ago I gave you the first part of the step by step guide on how I reposition SSO horses.
In the second and last part, I will show you my process when it comes to shading.

Keep in mind that this isn't an in depth tutorial, but rather a more simple guide on how to move from one thing to another.

If you want specific tutorials, please let us know!

Hope this helps!

That tutorial will be up in two weeks, so stay tuned!
