Sounds good, thank you very much!

Okay! There's DuraClear Matte Varnish at my Walmart, do you think that brand works?
It says polyurethane.

I see! People have been getting mixed results from Mod Podge, so I was hesitant. I think the air I sprayed the sealant in is too humid, but I can't really control that. Thank you!

Customs / Custom Advice- One Year Update

The spray sealant I used on my Nettle custom is still tacky after a year of her being on display. What should I do? Maybe I should go over her with Mod Podge? I don't want to ruin her paint job.
Any advice helps!

Great work on both, the sketch of your cat captures a lot of personality! Will you share the finished painting with us? :)
Of course! I am almost done with it, I should be finished by today hopefully!

Been feeling very sick recently, so this one is a little older.

This one is a portrait sketch of my cat for a painting assignment. I'm almost finished with the final painting, I just need to finish her eyes.
(Can you tell I save the eyes for last?)

Getting better at realism!

I had that problem, I had to re-pot my plant and that helped some. Sadly the bugs are why I don't keep plants in my room anymore...

Since I've been sick for the past week, I decided to start a new crochet project. I ended up finishing most of it, since it was the only thing I could do to not go crazy :blink:
Last night I started on the mane. The pattern I used wanted me to make cords for the mane, but I just went with regular yarn strands.
Once I finish that, I will try to decide how to do the eyes. The head is long, so I'm not sure if I want to do the g4 eyes or just freehand it...
She is looking good so far. I'm feeling a little better this week so hopefully I'm on the mend.

ETA: It's the pegasus in my sig!

Finished up the mane, and the eyes. Now I just need to attach the eyes to my pony. She doesn't have a cutie mark, so that was a bit easier.

How cute! Looks like I need to go back soon. I love the two shirts I got from Five Below. I need to make a whole pony outfit!

My gripe today is that there are too many options for college. If art isn't viable in the future I will become an attorney, but there's just so much out there I might not like it.

Picked up the set! I love Misty and Jazz.
Was there a new deal with Walmart and Hasbro? There are ponies again!

Nice to see Jazz Hooves and Queen Haven. It's a shame that these are smaller, though. The 3-inches are usually of lower quality.
The hair quality is actually really good. The only one that I'm not a fan of is Misty's. All of them are gelled, which I prefer for display, but I know it's not everyone's thing.
When I bought it I didn't even realize Queen Haven had a crown accessory. Either way, it's on the more expensive side, but of course, that could be from inflation. IIRC it was $20.98.

That sounds like regrind to me, or the result of a child with a marker.
I use Imgur to upload my photos and copy the links, then you use the [img/]http://[/img] tool to create the images.
