Title: Achas first customs <3 (new one 13.3)
Post by: Acha on February 10, 2014, 10:34:49 AM: So I have been doing rehairs before (pictures maybe in future), but this was my first complete custom pony. I got the inspiration from stardusts so I call her Stardust. First I thought about curling the mane and tail, but after seeing the ending result I thought the staraight hair filled her personality better. Eyes were definetly the hardest part and the mane took ages, but I'm really happy with the result. Give me some feedback will ya? :)
More pictures can be found from my blog, Childhood Dream by Acha, the link stands in my signature.

I thank you here again for all your comments and ideas. I found one more pony to custom, in such a poor condition being G1 Italy Peachy. I know it's a heart breaking to custom a nirvana pony, this poor thing had nail polish all over, no mane or tail and scratches in the body, so I thought about bringing her alive like this. The idea came from her origin city, Italy, so here she is, the Yellow City pony. More pics about her can also be found from my blog.

I think having her back "stars " come down a bit more and thin out would make it look less like a stripe and more of an overall design. Also if you made some brighter and some lighter you would get more of a feel of depth to the design. But again well done first pony!

I love the feet!

Ditto! That is a neat idea that I would not have thought of. It looks like she was walking in stardust, eh? I like the hair color you chose, also.

I actually like her starry pattern as it is... it's like a fantasy version of real horse markings, a dorsal stripe and a blaze - I love the front view! But of course spreading out the stars a little like Diamond suggested would work beautifully, too.

I admit I also spotted her lovely feet first, she's walking on clouds. ^^
