Title: G1 unicorn Luna(custom army swap)
Post by: lunar_scythe on March 11, 2014, 09:36:56 PM

I made a G1 bride pony into a season 1 based Luna for Midnight_Dream in the custom army swap, this was the first time I've done any sculpting.  I tried to do wings, too, but those are still beyond me!

Her body color is hand mixed, using metallic red, blue, and green to give her just the right shade(in shade, she looks dark grey, and more grey-purple in sunlight). She was sealed with Mod Podge, and rehaired  with a mix of retrodoll and dollyhair(the dark sections are Deep Sea, it's GORGEOUS!), and I may just have to make one for myself eventually.  I used dark wire around the base of her tail and to hold her braid; I really like how elegant it made her look, very princess-ish, hehe.

Her eyeshadow came out a bit messy, but at that point I was afraid to do much touch up on her; I had already mixed more of her main body color, and matched it, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to a second time!

Oh wow, she's so pretty!
I'm currently working on a Princess Celestia on the same Pony Bride base, but I'm still at the 'how on earth am I going to sculpt these wings?!' stage.
She's sat like that for several months now  :P
I love the colours on Luna. And her symbol looks fantastic  :)
