This pony was created for as a gift for jupiter_oski. She's my way of saying "thank you" to jupi for being so patient while I was borrowing her Garden Wishes for a photoshoot.

Galaxy was originally a Sunrise Song. She is rehaired with Dollyhair's "Sugarberry", white hair from a G3, and Sugarberry hair dyed with RIT Yellow. Her light purplish streak is original to the pony. (Her tail only has the purplish hair, the white, and Sugarberry. I was working with a Galaxy who'd been mostly buzz-cut and didn't realize that her last stripe was "Firebird" colored.)

Her eyes are a blend of Delta Creamcoat "Lisa Pink" and "Fuschia" (only a little bit of fuschia, though I forget the exact proportions). She has little pink gems glued onto her pupils, sort of like G2-style twinkles.

Her symbols are painted freehand, with a blend of Delta Creamcoat "Fuschia" and "Morrocan Red". I believed it was 2 parts fuschia to 1 part red.

I took the advice on washing her hair, and it turned out very nice. She kind of ended up with the \"G1\" style short forelock, though I didn't quite intend it to happen. I hope that jupiter_oksi likes her!

Oh, and before I forget...She also has my \"2008 signature\" on her back hoof:

Thanks for checking her out!

Very pretty! I like the use of the gems in her eyes, and her hair blend is really nice.

WOW!

I love how you did the hair. That looks great.

Ooh... what a beautiful G1-to-G3. She's lovely, and painting on her stars must have been an absolute nightmare.

She's adorable! I have a Garden Wishes and was planning on making her into a G3 Galaxy, she's the perfect color. Looks like it was a good idea.

I think it was really sweet of you to make her for jupiter_oski.

Oh she is lovely, you did a great job on her.

Thank you! I originally painted her pink eyes and was going to leave them as they were, but something was missing. Adding the little jewels really made her Galaxy.

And you have NO idea how badly I freaked out when I realized that Galaxy's last stripe was orange and not pink. XD

You said it, Kanthaka! ^_^ I am so glad that I had lots of acetone on hand to fix up my goofs. Thanks for the compliment, I'm pleased with how she turned out, too!

Thank you, Pop! ^_^ I just wanted to let you know, compared to my baity Galaxy, Garden Wishes is a much brighter pink (I looked at the photos) and Sunrise Song (the one I used) is just a little purpler, but of similar shade. I think either one would work, since it's hard to match body color exactly.

And thanks also to toola, aquiafin, and DiamondandSillySong for your compliments! It always means so much to me when people say they like my work!

I think that Garden Wishes is too dark of a color to match Galaxy. Either Sunrise Song (as FloralHippo used) or Rarity the unicorn would be a better match.

FloralHippo--G3 Galaxy arrived in the mail today. She's beautiful. And she's awesome! Thank you so very much!!

I'm glad she arrived safely, and that you like her. You're very welcome! ^_^
