Title: Customs of 2016 plus Wintergreen Frost and Silver Bells
Post by: retrogradenova on February 14, 2017, 07:48:02 AM
This is a long over due post thanks to technical difficulties. But now I finally got it all together. Yay!
(please excuse the graininess, I don't know what is up with my stupid camera phone)


I'd like to introduce you all to my first year of custom making! Dun dun dun!!!!!!!!!!

Left to right: Wintergreen Frost, Silver Bells, Sunsoaked, Raspberry Cyclone, Harvest Moon, Finishing Touch, Lil' Nova, Lil' Treestar, and Lil' (my husband really needs to name him already)!

Wintergreen Frost:

Frost was a Christmas trade with the amazing Aintnobuffalo!
He has Dolly Hair: Snowflake, Poison Ivy
And Doll Planet: Oz, Jaded, Aquarius, and Red Wedding.
His forelock was giving me a bit of trouble during the styling process so the wire there is just to hold it down for the picture (still didn't work very well  >_< )

Silver Bells:

Silver was a Christmas swap with someone on Facebook, I don't remember their Arena name  >_<
He has Dolly Hair: Moonlight, Snowflake, Arctic Frost, and Lapis Sapphire
and Doll Planet: Sonic, Silver Lining
For some reason his display side photo is more color accurate than the ND

I'll add some more picture of the others once I figure what's up with my camera, but if anyone has any styling tips in the meantime, I could use all the help I can get with that.

Your paintwork is STUNNING!  I would love to see closeups of the symbols.  Great job! :)

You started your customising year with a bang, these girls are incredible! Your paintwork on their symbols is stunning, and it blows me away that you have them on both sides with such perfection.
Wintergreen Frost and Silver Bells are beautiful. I look forward to more pictures of the others... and any future customs you create. ^.^

I feel so lucky to have Wintergreen Frost! He is so lovely with my other winter ponies! Superb paint work and color schemes for him and all of these!

Thank you everyone! You're encouragement really means all the world to me.

I'll try to get some up close pictures of their symbols soon. Though I'm thinking of revamping Raspberry's a little since her raspberries don't show up well (it's what I get for changing her base color right as I'm about to start airbrushing) and my in-laws sent me some glitter paint for Christmas, I think the diva needs her bling :)
