Roans: Roaning is done via airbrush as light or dark as you prefer. The actual base color of the horse is painted first to ensure your roan is not flat! This includes corn spots, brands and white markings as stated in solid color prices. You can choose to roan any solid color horse. This does not include etched or hand penciled roans. Those are only quoted via email. Base coats for Grays would be in this price category. (Add the dapple charges in “Solid Colors” column above.) Prices for airbrushed roans are as follows:

Orders are first come, first serve based on available paint slots. No money is ever required up front for those who have models shipping to the studio immediately. Your model is your deposit and you receive your paint slot when the model is in the studio. Slots are held for 7 days while the model is in route unless you are waiting for a casting to ship from a sculptor.
If you would like to hold a future spot a small non refundable deposit of $25.00 is required.
Once your model is complete, approval photos are sent before sealing. At that time, the model will be ready within 2 days and ships upon payment.
Payments: I accept Pay Pal, checks or money orders. Sometimes trades are accepted with prior approval.
Time Payments: Time payments are accepted based on the guidelines listed below. A 10% minimum deposit is required and you absolutely MUST sign a contract outlining our agreement. Your 10% deposit is NOT refundable. Any additional payments may be given as a studio credit, less costs, per the discretion of Paloose Arts.
