Gift ponies (and one for me)
« on: July 22, 2012, 07:13:52 PM »
Hey, there.  Long time, no see?   :blush:  Things are a little crazy and will continue to be crazy, but I have finished up a few ponies since the last time I was around here regularly.  I'll post the two commissions later, but first are two gift ponies... and one I made for me.  :P  I've never kept a custom I've made before and my friend has threatened to beat me if I sell him, so I guess I'm stuck with him!

The first was a birthday gift for one of my little brother's friends, Hannah.  I've been referring to her as my little sister since she hangs out with our family so often.

I've been calling the pony Hannatee, but I hope her owner has given her a better name. ;)  Hannah likes manatees, homemade things, light green, gray, and ballet pink, so... well.

The picture quality on the second isn't so good since I took them when I was visiting my friend in Maryland (where I'm moving in early August).  Her apartment has terrible lighting.  But yes!  She's really into Avatar: The Last Airbender and Korra, so I made a Korra for her.  The bait is actually a purply-brown and the hair is a very dark brown; I'm not sure if the pictures show that.  The hair was... an interesting challenge.

And finally, the second G4 custom I've ever started (but not the second that I've finished).  I ran across the FiM set with the baby ponies in it at TRU when things were on sale and wanted to have a go at customizing a baby.  I'm completely obsessed with Star Trek and Apple Bloom clearly wanted to be someone in command gold.  While I'm loyal to the original series, I based Chekov on the one in the 2009 movie; the original just didn't lend himself to tiny cutesiness.

His hair is actually a mix of three different browns, but it's very difficult to tell.  The hair was so much fun to style, and I had a good time with the eyes.  Such a giant space to work with!

And, because I'm a complete nerd:

Thank you for looking, and my apologies for being gone!

Awesome!  I am always in love with anything you touch with a paintbrush!  I was wondering about the little cutie in your avatar, now it all makes sense!  I LOVED the new Chekov, he really is adorable.  Fab work!

Cuute!  Love 'em all!  I think "Hannatee" is an adorable name, myself!
