B&BW Swap for SecretSheik ~ Cherry Blossom
« on: November 16, 2012, 08:43:44 PM »
This was my first swap, and I joined as a newbie customizer, so my custom is definitely not as glamorous as others, but I still thought she was pretty ^^;
 
Unfortunately, I lost my memory card at my Grandma's 80th birthday, so I had no way to take decent photos of her right before I shipped, but other than some amateur hairstyling, she's the same :)
(secretsheik, as I said in the letter, if you like her, you are more than willing to share more photos!)


I chose Cherry Blossom as the inspiration, this "design" specifically

My swap partner said she liked found items on ponies, so I got inspired by these things I found in the scrapbook section and customized them

I also sculpted her hair "pin" but I just realized I only have this horrific photo of it from when she was still a work in progress  >_<

So I got her all rerooted, painted everything, attached all her pieces, and we got Cherry Blossom!

each little branch was painted with glossy black acrylic, and then the center of the flower was blushed a light pink. Then each branch was assembled up her leg in an organic fashion.
She was rerooted in.... volcano(?) (dollyhair shipped me either volcano instead of vampire or the other way around, because they didn't have what I wanted in stock :( )  and Black Magic.
Then her hair was just twisted up in a bun and pinned into place.

I love browsing the scrapbook isles for pony stuff :) I think she came out very nice! Volcano and Vampire's Kiss are almost identical in color anyway, so you didn't get much difference from the substitution :)
