He is black, and all taped up. Under the tape are his red details (reins, saddle, tale, rockers), and his original blue Mohawk.
After the tape was removed he looked like a new horse! The next step was to tuck the selected fabric in around his existing hairdo to cover it. 
Rounding out the new facial features, are the new and improved eyeballs - all expression that was carefully masked off, cut-away, painted and touched-up. The result it pretty nice, with a gold flare above the eye, which Genesee says makes him look mean... I think he looks tough. Just like a little boy's pony should.
There are a few finishing steps yet to be performed - touching up a couple areas of over spray, stitching the hair cover in place so it isn't promptly removed by the new rider, and use of a clear-coat to seal the surface decorations and make the entire finish more durable. We're almost there!
