The shade is Tea Rose and while it would work well enough you can still see there's a difference.

The shade is Tea Rose and while it would work well enough you can still see there's a difference. Hrm, ok. To me it looks entirely different, and not just the texture. But I have been told a lot of times by a lot of people in my real life who think I'm mad for seeing shades of colour they don't see, and fussing about it, so I thought maybe it was just me. To my eyes it doesn't look at all close to being a match.@LM - IMO if you're willing to replace the hair you've already changed a vintage pony beyond return. Marking the bottom of the hooves is much less intrusive than rehairing is, so it kind of doesn't make sense to me to be willing to do one but not the other.

I refuse to carve up or mark a pony's vinyl - they have enough condition issues as it stands, without adding more to the mix. That said I have no intention of selling any of the (two? maybe three) non-custom rerooted ponies I own and they're easily identified as such by popping open their unsealed heads and taking a look inside at all the knots. Looks nothing like factory weave.

I see WAY more colours than most people... it made my painting professor infuriated enough that she went on an expletive-laced screaming rant at me during one class! That hank of hair looks very very very different than the original hair on the ponies, but I can see what colour it's trying to be! :-p
I just think that it saves the risk later on to mark a pony now. We can't any of us legislate for the future of our ponies going forwards or who might end up with them. People who don't know ponies aren't likely to pull a head off to check, and shouldn't have to do so to authenticate.
