Sweet Tooth (my most ambitious project) she still lives with me and you can't tell she was split.  Sadly she had to have a full body repaint so she is almost a custom now.

I haven't done any in a long time. My ponies are still packed up from my move. But I've done several on different levels of difficulty.

Lovebeam was a simple sunfade.

Some hair fixes. Not rehairs. I used G1 tail hair to fix German Skyflyer.

Oh I love to do restorations!  I don't do them all that often - mostly just when things cross my desk for whatever reason, but it's super satisfying.  Here's a few from over the years:

Removing pindot on Posey:

Deflock and rehair on Angel (I didn't think I'd keep her but she was so lovely restored I ended up doing so):

A nice cleanup and hair fix on a B&G (couldn't do much about the age spot, alas):

A super grotty Moonstone who turned around really nicely - I gave her symbols a little more dimension than I meant to but I'm getting a handle on that (that wasn't surface dirt either - it took a good sunfade to get rid of the brown spots):

New wings for my childhood Cool Breeze (replica wings from Daisy Church who I don't think makes them anymore):
