G4 Pegasi (Wonderbolts and Surprise)

[Oak23]

Blaaaaaah so much to catch up on... Anyways I've been working on a bunch of pony stuff and decided to redo my Spitfire. So yeah, I decided to redo her head and give her sculpted hair, nicer eyes and generally a darker coat. I studied the screencaps and realised that the Twilight eyes she has are basically the roud eyes but with a little white triangle attached. So she looks so much better than my first derped up attempt.
Anyways, she’s a much brighter yellow than Fluttershy and basically, I’m very happy with her result. Hee.

And here is Soarin in which I originally made to go with my Spitfire… which resulted in me recustomizing her to go with Soarin. He’s basically a Rainbow Dash base and altered with milliput. Before anyone asks, I’m trying to find a pie for him so he can nom at it all he wants.
Anyways I need to get a Blossomforth to turn into the third Wonderbolt because it seems weird not having a trio of them failing to save Ponyville.

So basically, I follow a bunch of Ask Pony roleplay blogs and all of them combine art and writing seriously well. Now while I usually only follow alternate versions of the main characters I do read a bunch of background character blogs as well. It’s actually because of them I’ve been able to give a crap about making the custom pony versions of them.
Now, Echo Fleetfoot had such a pretty colour scheme and such a sweet backstory (being blind and having echolocation as her talent) I decided to give doing her hairstyle and eyes would be an awesome challenge.
I am debating on giving her rosy cheeks but hey, I got her little buck teeth and eyes mostly well done…
Check out her blog here:

So I’m a huge fan of Pinkie Pie and I adore all forms of her, especially concept form. Part of me will always mourn Surprise not being part of the mane 6 or at least her colour scheme because I think it looks really nice with her purple eyes, white coat and yellow hair. Pinkie Pie is amazing, but really, she’s kind of of too… overwhelmingly pink at times.
Anyways, I’m slowly making the concept mane 6, but I kind of want them to be mirror images of the mane 6 I currently have so I’m going to rehair them. Surprise was first on my list due to her awesomeness (and awesome ask blog http://asksurprise.tumblr.com/ )… As you can see I’m sort of failed on her crazy hair but I think it’s adorable looking…
Surprise was made from a Plumsweet head, Blossomforth body generously given to me in a trade, her hair being a mix of Rainbow Dash’s, Rainbow Flash’s and Lily Blossom’s hair…
I chose to go for this combo rather than wait for Diamond Rose just because Plumsweet’s eyes are purple and I’d rather not mess with eyepaint if possible.

Very nice, very nice. Paint is smooth and good looking, sculpting fits the style very well. How does milliput stick to pony plastic? I have been playing with Magic Sculpt and that seems to stick quite well without any scoring even.

Only thing that bugs me is that Soaring looks a little old .

Some hints for the future: Light colours are easier to paint on white than on dark base. Especially those that don't cover well. Try painting a white or orange base for the yellows. That will help make them smoother.

Keep up the good work!

Very cute! You done well with them!

[jupiternwndrlnd]

[kittybethy]

Very cute!! I love them!

Nicely done, a little primer under your yellows for the lighten bolts will make them pop if you want.

[Catlein]

Your Wonderbolts are great!

[ButtercreamDream]

Oh man, those are all amazing!  How the heck did you get the curly hair so curly?!  I love rainbow's hair too!  I'm not brave enough to take scissors to mine yet =P  I have enough trouble styling my own hair, lol.

Those are pretty good! I love your talent for styling hair! Are you planning on painting the symbol onto Surprise? I didn't see a cutie mark in the pictures of her.
