G1 Baby Glory Re-Glitter
« on: June 16, 2023, 05:51:11 PM »
I'm hoping to restore my G1 Baby Glory but need to find out who on the net sells fine Glitter and all colors of the mlp universe?? What techniques do you use when putting on Glitter?
Thanks

I get all my glitter from Glitter Hippo. I don't have a glory to look at but this color looks like it might match?

As far as technique, I use a thin layer of glue and dump the glitter on, wait a few seconds, and then dump it off. You can use a paintbrush to brush away any that static clings. Then set aside and let dry for 24 hours. Then I use a clear sealer over it, and let that dry for another 24 hours.

She looks okay to me? If you want to sunfade, go ahead, but make sure to cover her eyes and hair.

Glitter Hippo specializes in different types of glitter. The "normal" glitter is the Shimmer, Pastel Pearl and Crystal. I like the Shimmer the best. It's not like official MLP colors or anything, but between those three categories, you should be able to find a color that matches a pony.

I once got the glitters for all ponies in the correct shades - if I remember from ebay but that was long time ago. I know that Baby Glory is one of the 30 glitter ponies that has a mix of 2 colors: purple and silver. Only 8 ponies don't. Also micro glitter is important.
I use the same technique for application like BC.
You can sunfade her sure - but be careful - white ponies might get brown in sunlight.

Thank you BC & Griffin!

I used a combine Technique Thanks to BC & Draco from the MLP Trading Post... So I brought mod Podge & painted it on to the pony first then sprinkled the glitter onto the pony waiting a few min then I used another brush to get the access glitter off then I took a tooth pick and straightened the lines then, waited 24 hours to fully dry, then I used the clear coat...
