Title: Villian Work! Chrysalis Crown Attemps
Post by: aintnobuffalo on June 01, 2014, 03:10:16 PM
I couldn't leave my poor Chrysalis with the paper crown she came with in the collectors set, so I finally made attempts at a sculpted crown.

First attempt was way too big! It might work for a talking size Chrysalis (if there was one) but much to big for a brushable. It was a good way to learn a general method of creating crowns, though. Second attempt cracked badly, and I could tell again that it was too big. Again, third attempt was too big, but much closer. I think it was probably the best overall attempt, but I made a smaller forth attempt and decided to settle for it. I tried to get the points a little bit closer together (especially the center two) but I didn't get as good of smoothness to it.

It's a bit too tall, but otherwise I think its okay for now. I may attempt a shorter version in the future (her hair cut could use some minor alterations too), but after two days of work on this project I'm taking a break for a while.

Next up; I need to paint my Sombra custom. I haven't worked on him since winter. A lot of work to do!

I'm just a beginner (this is the first project I've posted), so I don't mind if you have some constructive criticism.

Aah, that's so cute! Great idea, making one on a tack. I people will imitate that idea. :)

Yes, I find tacks are great for attaching things to ponies! That's how I attach ribbons to Appleblooms, and I used one to attach a sculpted crown to Luna once. If I ever create something better or it gets damaged, I can just remove them.
