Aus asked for a G3 goth version of Parasol - but she wanted her to remain recognisable as a parasol ^.^ Inspired by some of my favourite elements of goth clubbing fashions.

Bait had the hole in her butt patched, then her shorts were airbrushed. Corset and boots are both sculpted with Magic Sculpt then hand painted. I added the umbrella shapes as 'sleeves' for something different and to keep a parasol theme running through the piece.
Her boots are 'Parasoles' (detail pic is in the collage on dA) and feature laces up the back in a corset style.
I debated on her symbol for ages, before I decided on a cameo with Parasol's symbol, wrapped in a ribbon, done in a tattoo-k style.
Her swarovski's are carefully placed and I intended for them to imitate dermal anchors, and I finally decided on snakebites for her - I was going to give her more piercings, but when I saw her with just the snakebites, I decided she was perfect with JUST them.

Her hair is one of my favourite parts of her :) To keep the rainbow hair while adding a goth element, I decided to give her a rainbow coloured widow's peak with the rest of her hair black. Colours are:
Fairy's Breath, Pussycat, heart throb, watermelon martini, Pomme D'Amour, Cherry Pie, Satsuma, Marmalade, Mango Tango, Napalm, Golden Delicious, Key Lime, Envy, Poison Ivy, Atomic Turquoise, Mermaid, Water Nixie, Bobby Blue, After Midnight, Ultraviolet, Sour grapes and Black Magick. Because of the tiny space, there are only a few strands of most colours in their respective rainbow plug ^.^ Thats beeen styled and is held in place with black pins.

Sealed with Mod Podge gloss, triple thick on the eyes and Dullcote on the symbol.
Her bondage straps are very pretty suede strips, while her neck piece is chain wrapped around her neck and in place.

From her reaction today, I know Aus loves her!!

Thanks everyone!! I must confess - I simply adore her ^.^ I may have to make more goth ponies at some point ;)

Probably not for a while :( After I finish my next round of commissions I'm taking some time off to work on other stuff - ponies for me, the unfinished projects I've been trying to find time to finish for years, maybe a sale piece here and there.

I love that hair! I did a custom recently with the same 'black to white through all the colours' type hair, and I admire your tenacity to make even more holes for the hair to go in ^^  And the parasol cameo detail is so detailed.....really, really cool pony.

I'm crazy mad jealous of her hair, so lush and colorful and still a lil dark.  :jealous:

Her whole look is completely rockin'. I adore her snake bite piercings and cameo the most.

 :inlove:
