Title: ~~~Ring of Fire~~~
Post by: Colorscapesart on January 27, 2012, 09:07:08 PM: Aww, it's almost Valentines, so I figured why not celebrate with a pony that would be an awesome V-Day gift?. In honor of that special day, I present Ring of Fire, inspired by that awesome Johnny Cash classic. Valentines doesn't have to be sappy :P

Lyrics:
Love is a burning thing
and it makes a fiery ring
bound by wild desire
I fell in to a ring of fire...

I fell in to a burning ring of fire
I went down,down,down
and the flames went higher.
And it burns,burns,burns
the ring of fire
the ring of fire.

The taste of love is sweet
when hearts like our's meet
I fell for you like a child
oh, but the fire went wild..

I fell in to a burning ring of fire.....[etc]

Ring of Fire was a G1 bait lovingly airbrushed in multiple sessions: yellow>yellow orange>orange>red>red-violet>blue and sealed with Testors Dullcote. Her symbol is a heart of flames, which is the "ring of fire" in my mind. (Not in my husbands! He's says it can't be a RoF Johnny Cash pony as it isn't black and thats not a circle. Pfft. Men. lol)
Her hair was DH Blizzard hand dyed to match and given waves to mimic the idea of flame.

She is sold, thanks so much!

Happy early Valentines Day!

Title: Re: ~~~Ring of Fire~~~
Post by: Colorscapesart on January 29, 2012, 08:18:11 PM: The dye was RIT dye, the crystal variety. Golden Yellow, a custom mixed orange, Scarlett, then a pinch of Royal Blue on the tips.

Thank you all so much! :hug:
