Title: G4 OC pony custom - Cerulean Comet
Post by: RoseNoire on July 17, 2019, 11:41:28 AM
Hi everyone !

I've made another custom recently, this is Cerulean Comet, a friend's OC. The base is a Mc Donald's Rainbow Dash figure. I've removed the nylon tail and sculpted a solid one out of wire, papier mâché and air-dry clay. I'm really happy with the result. I hope you like it too. ^^

As her symbol is a comet, it glows in the dark. :D That's pretty neat to look at in real life, but impossible to capture with a camera, I'm sorry. ^^'

It's far from perfect and a little bumpy at places, but I guess it's okay. I'd be happy to hear your feedback, I'd like to improve. ^^ This pony is happily spending her days at my friend's home. =)

Have a nice day !

Rose.

Thank you so much guys ! :frolic:
I should have been more patient with the paint job....She's kinda bumpy, hehe. ^^'

Awesome!!! I love her colors. The tail is excellently sculpted as well.

Edit: I forgot to mention that I adore the wing details.

Aw, cute little custom! I like that you gave her a tail to match with her mane :) The little details on the wings are a nice touch too!

As for the paint job (as you already mentioned), try more thin layers. It doesn't matter if it doesn't cover immediately, just thinly go over it again until it does. It takes long with a full body repaint xD but it's worth it.

Thanks a lot for your kind words. :lovey:
Indeed, she loves it so much, she was shaking and gave me a hug. She's so sweet !

It sucks that I was so impatient with the paint job. I couldn't wait to give it to her. I will be more careful next time. =)
It's nice that you like the wing details so much. I wasn't sure about them. ^^' Thanks ! :3

I too think the tail is way better like this. I'm proud I did the sculpting well enough. She looks like a mini Funko figure now. (You know, those with an actual decent and proportionate body, lol. :D )

She's very cute, and the tail is spot on! :)

Like Moonbreeze said, patience is the key with full body repaints. But smaller figures are always more difficult to paint anyway!
