All Tangled Up! Holiday Swap for Wiccanpony1

[PhyllieBean]

I had the lovely Wiccanpony1 as my partner for the Holiday Swap this year!  She celebrates both Christmas and Pagan holidays so I wanted to incorporate something that would celebrate both.  However, I don't know much about Pagan traditions, and I didn't want to butcher whatever customs they have!  Lol!  So I decided to go with a Christmas-ish theme starring her persona, Silver Spell.  Pictures first and description below!  Woot!

She started out as a brushable Pinkie Pie and got hacked up quite a bit.  Her legs, ear and mouth are reposed and built up from their original parts, and her arms, mane and tail are sculpted from scratch.  I was going to use her original parts on the arms but they were just too rigid to get the look I wanted.  Everything is done with Apoxie Clay.  Her lights were originally incorporated into some of the sculpting, but then I had a piece break and changed the design a bit.  I wanted to make sure she made it to England with no problems, so I thought letting the light cord work as a separate piece would be a safer idea.  Plus, if something ever happens to them they can be replaced with another set.  They're battery operated so I didn't have to worry about different outlets over there in Jolly Ol'.  I was super stoked when I found them, as I originally made a set out of wire and little plastic bulbs from a necklace, but they didn't light up.  It just wasn't the same!  Teeny tiny lights like that are harder to find than I thought they would be!

Her persona's symbol is pretty detailed and has a lot of fine lines, so I modified it slightly by giving her a solid star instead of what would have been a wobbly, messy pentagram (G4 butts are so SMALL!)  I added a little bit of shimmer to the paint and it gave it just enough texture that I couldn't get the fine lines no matter what I tried.  So solid star it was!  In retrospect, I probably wouldn't have added the shimmer medium, as I think it makes her symbol look a little...chunky?  But I didn't want to run the risk of ruining her FBR (again, since she needed another after breaking) so I left it alone. 

Anyway, I'm pretty happy with how she came out.  She was super fun to make and Wiccanpony said she likes her, so that's all I can ask!  If anyone has any advice or critiques for improvement I'm always interested in hearing!  Thanks for looking!
