Title: "Integrity"-- My first full custom!
Post by: Wild Raspberry on January 28, 2018, 02:29:14 PM

Hi everypony!
I would like to introduce Integrity.  She is my first full custom. (I have done a few practice paint projects and a g4 custom without hair, but she is my first full one.)

She is based on American Heritage Girls, a scouting program for girls ages 5-18 which has been very influential in my life.
Shameless plug, here's their website: https://www.americanheritagegirls.org/
Her symbol is the AHG logo, and her name comes from thier mission "Building women of integrity."

Her hair is Cherry pie, and a blend of After Midnight and Lapis Sapphire from Dolly Hair.

I painted her with el-cheapo acrylics from Walmart and sealed her with matt mod podge.

I'm so proud of her eyes.  They look pretty accurate!

One more, a close up on the symbol.  I added some little rhinestones in the swirls. Sorry it's a bit out of focus, I have a new camera and have trouble getting the whole thing in focus and getting a close up. :) I also have no idea why it is sideways, I can't seem to fix it. Oh well. :)

Thanks for stopping by!

Lovin' the colour combo here.

I'm a sucker for white ponies and blue hair so it's a winner in my book.

She’s beautiful! I have no idea what the group is, but I think you’ve made some scout leader pretty proud.

nice job!
white paint is hard to work with and you got it pretty smooth

Thanks! Lots of thin coats and some sandpaper. :) It really helped that she was white to begin with.  She needed full coats to cover up some permanent marker tattoos though.  The sealer at the end really helped to make it look smooth too.
