Title: Is there a way to make custom sparkle ponies?
Post by: Twizel on March 17, 2012, 12:01:09 PM

Sparkle ponies (like the G1 set) are some of my favorite ponies, and I'd love to make customs with translucent glittery plastic! But I'm not sure how, besides cannibalizing G1 sparkle baits...

but I'd love to make a yellow, pink, or neon green sparkle custom someday!

At one point I know someone was experimenting with creating their own pony molds, so technically any type of plastic could be used that way. Highly labor intensive though.

You'd be better off going with a sparkly fakie I think ^^

you could use the g3 style sparkle fakies, i see them in lots on ebay a lot of times. or you could even buy some Rit dye and dye a sparkle pony.
