Title: What are you currently working on?
Post by: Griffin on January 21, 2019, 12:13:44 PM

It's been a while since we had one of these!

I just finished sculpting on a private swap custom which I'd like to keep as a secret, but it prompted me to make this thread.

In the meanwhile, here's a WIP I started back in 2010. XD Maybe this year is finally the year I finish it? Or perhaps I should wait until 2020, lol!

I'm not working on anything :throw: but I have so many WIPs and projects I want to start.

Your guy is gorgeous: so detailed! Would love to see him finished.

I bought some blank G3 ponies from the Hasbro website. My kids painted them and I have just finished rehairing. They need styling now.

I am going to rehair this Italian girl as alt. Blue Moon. Her neck plugs were really bad though: completely split through. Note: she has the regular, not the reverse, symbols

I have a bait Tex who is covered in pink highlighter and TAF Buttons who has a gorgeous yellow body that I would like to get the head to match. They both need rehairing and Tex needs a symbol repaint too.

I'm in the process of rehairing a Daddy and Baby Nightglider, doing some symbols on rainbow babies and getting my hands on some personal projects.

I'm trying to sculpt a new leg for an Equestria Girls Mini who is missing hers. I sculpted a lovely leg out of Milliput (got my dad to help as he's good at that sort of thing) but for some reason it hasn't set and is still all sticky so we might have to redo it  :yikes:

I'm working on an MLP version of Amazement from the Breyer Dapples line. I'm currently painting on his brown tobiano markings. I'll hopefully post pictures soon.

Someday I'll get the symbols done on my custom punzie... it has to be about 4 years since I started her.

I'm mostly done with the body but there's still plenty of work left on the head.

Still working on my Attack on Titan custom dolls, gotta order some copper penny Saran hair for Moblit.

Plus gotta order a Devirgent Four Doll from Amazon.uk going to cost me £40 for Erwin Smith. Plus got to do the it caps again because they went wrong. Plus gotta order Male doll boots from China because those suit the brown boots that everyone wears.

Ponies are on hold for a moment because I still need some more airbrush paints.

Loving all the WIP shots! Everyone has such exciting projects going on! :frolic:

I made some progress with my swap pony over the weekend but not as much as I would've liked. I think she still needs a few more coats before I can start painting on the details. :)

Are you going to customize the FSF? You might not want to since that one's kinda too rare to customize. There's one on ebay right now for $159

     I’m not currently working on customs themselves. I got a fair amount of money saved up from Christmas and my birthday, and I’m currently trying to find all the supplies I need to begin customizing. I know the materials, I just want to get them without having to sell a leg for shipping.

I'm working on
a commission OC G4.5 boy
a set of 6 Avengers ponies (just got the commission and am starting to prep bait)
a winter custom using a light up rarity as the base
and a gen-swap private swap with someone here :)
plus some rehairs
and a galaxy themed doll in a rdus swap

Hoo boy, the possibilities are endless! I just finished Heartwood (under a rush!), so my current projects are:

Modestoration (love that term!) of a marked-up Hot Pink Glory
Rose gold Dragon - sparkle
Rose gold Glow Dragon
Rose gold sitting pose
Orange dyed Glory - pick a theme
Green Glories - find hair matches? (Not sure if I want to modestore or fully custom them, leaning towards making some kind of Green Glory)
