What is up with the G3 pets getting species-changed for no reason? Clawdeen now has a wolf instead of a cat, Draculaura has a cat? dog? with bat wings instead of a bat, the new Venus will allegedly have this: visitors can't see pics , please register or login
I hope this prototype gets tossed. It looks like Chewlian swallowed the cheshire cat.
Apparently the idea is for the pets to look like ' magical girl familiars' according to the designer Cristina Frankel ( https://www.instagram.com/cristina.faline/?hl=en) which is a neat idea but in my opinion isn't really something that works for MH? Apparently Crescent was staying a cat but the higher-ups decided she had to be a wolf (why?), and Count Fabulous is Draculaura's 'familiar' which means he can change shape apparently

I didn't intentionally but Baby Honululu became 'Baby Hula-Lula-Loo', presumably due to my unfamiliarity with Hawaii (I'm Australian lol)

me as well! from my experience with my retro posey vs my g1s the retro ponies are much harder vinyl and their hair is softer to the touch
The harder body is probably due to plasticiser leakage due to age I'd assume, and I know a number of big hair manufacturers have shut down/merged since the 80s

Hey I just noticed..
visitors can't see pics , please register or login
Who's the fourth character on the "Reunion Tour" poster? also Meowlody's silhouette appears to be missing its tail Maybe a hint at a new character? Catty? *crosses fingers*
As for the collector dolls (so many at once :O omg): - Clawdeen's really pretty, but I'm not sure I'll be adding her to my collection. I think I would if she's released over here, unfortunately I doubt that'll happen (we never got the last Holiday doll). Love her box design. - Skelita's really pretty, but too similar to the previous collector Skelita for my taste. Plus I've never really been a Skelita person. - Draculaura's GORGEOUS... but again reminds me quite a bit of the G1 collector Laura from a while ago, the one with the big eyelashes and chest joint? Either way... absolutely stunning, but not for me.
It's G1 Catty's silhouette, but she is getting a G3 doll - visitors can't see pics , please register or loginThis is her concept art but apparently as this look is Lizzo inspired and given the recent allegations she may be changed

I love these!!! The playset is delightful & I'd buy it if it existed!!! As for the Ponies, how good of you to go the Japanese route with them!!!
Aww thankyou so much! Hopefully I can make it real in the future, my other half is trying to teach me 3D modelling and a playset like this seems feasible to create lol And yes, Takara ponies are some of my favourite MLP ever, although I don't think I'll ever be wealthy enough to own one haha, my hope is HGQ1 will make Takara blanks one day...!
They already have the Nippon babies in, so far four colours... They're quite cute!!! I think they'd need an adult fakie to do bigger blanks though, & even they are HTF
Yes I've seen the babies and they're definitely cute but I much prefer the adults! I assume you would take either a fakie or a legit adult and 3D scan + clean up the scan because they're wayy too valuable to be sent off to be cast from tbh - or at least that's how I'd do it

Introducing my most ambitious set to date, the Sweets Cafe Ponies! visitors can't see pics , please register or loginI’ve always LOVED the Takara ponies but they only lasted a year and we didn’t get to see what they could have become, which in turn was my inspiration for this set! This is specifically my take on how Takara would have done the ‘scented pony’ concept! Each character is based on a different dessert/drink that’s somewhat iconic to 80s Japan (as far as I can tell with my research anyway lol) and of course, being cafe based, I had to create a playset for them too! It was also pretty interesting trying to learn to emulate the art style, as it’s so different from what I usually draw! visitors can't see pics , please register or loginThis is the playset sans ponies, as I'm proud of the amount of detail I managed here with the slightly unwieldy 'rough pencil' brush And here are the individual character artworks! visitors can't see pics , please register or loginFizzy Cream Soda - しゅわしゅわ クリームソーダ (Shuwa Shuwa Kurīmusōda)visitors can't see pics , please register or loginBubbling Ramune - ぶくぶくラムネ (Buku Buku Ramune)visitors can't see pics , please register or loginFluffy Strawberry Shortcake - ふわふわ いちごのショートケーキ (Fuwa Fuwa Ichigo no Shōtokēki)visitors can't see pics , please register or loginBouncy Pudding - ぷるぷる プリン (Puru Puru Purin)I hope you enjoy them as much as I did creating them! <3

Oh man, I LOVE those Bubble Belle ponies so much, and the Merry Marshmallow ponies are glorious! Your designs are so pretty and fun, I would have collected these ponies for sure if they'd been released! <3
Aww haha thankyou SO much! You might get an opportunity in the future - customsbypandabear has said she will be making some of my achievable designs in custom form (although sadly this doesn't include the Bubble Belles due to their composition) and there is a possibility they may become HQG1 one day as well!

These are so cool! I think Jupiter is my fave. Would def buy if I saw that doll on the shell. I also really like Shabana.
I love how Rainbow high pulls fashion aesthetics from real looks. They're like hidden Easter eggs. I couldn't believe there were even some 90's references like from Clueless or Brittany Spears.
Aww haha thankyou so much aaa Yes, that's one of my favourite parts about RH too, and it's something I really enjoyed doing with these design too!

These are amazing. The stands are esp good. I'm a #spoonie & I love the spoons so much. My heart hurts these aren't all real. I'd love to see someone make custom dolls from ur designs. I think my fave is Yummy Mummy; that's brilliant how you stacked mallows for the heels of her shoes and the colors are great. You should be proud *&* oh so grateful for teh help with blender <3
Aww haha thankyou so much! I'm so happy you appreciate all the work that went into these! I'd also love to see that! As with any of my designs, people are welcome to create customs of them (or commission them!) as long as they aren't being sold for profit
