rin (Wagner) Lay, of Sojourner Stable, began seriously customizing in 2003 and while she's customized everything from Traditionals to MicroMinis, her favorites are Stablemates and MicroMinis. She started customizing because OF models don't come in the breeds and colors she was looking for. She paints by hand and uses acrylics, etching and pastels to make her customs. Her favorite pattern to paint is any form of pinto, but also likes painting "unusual" or "unique" colors.
