Moondancer Restoration - Complete! (pic heavy)
« on: October 02, 2012, 12:54:28 AM »
A few months ago I received a Moondancer oddly covered in white paint. To clean her up I used nail polish remover and then had to repaint her symbols, as a lot had come off when I took the paint off. Here she is!

The white paint was probably someone's failed restoration attempt.  :P Wonderful job.

The white paint looks so strange, but still her eyes and symbols look very original in the before pics. Did someone manage to paint her in white but leave the original eyes and symbols..?

Anyway now she's a happy pony  :happy:

Thanks! No, it wasn't. They'd painted around her eyes & symbols. I took some of her eye paint off with the nailpolish so I had to repaint them :) They are a slightly funny colour but I like to think it makes her unique.

Yep, although they didn't do the greatest job of painting around the symbols. I mean, it's okay, don't get me wrong, but it's not as good as it looks from a distance. Here's a shot I took before I removed the paint:

I know it's annoying I removed some of the original symbols and eyes but there was really no other way of doing it that I could see :( The paint took some scrubbing to get off so it was hard to take it off accurately next to things if you see what I mean.

Anyway, she is fairly common and now she's not covered in paint (which made her weird and squidgy), so that's a plus. :)
