Title: Midnight Flight - Monochrome Swap for Gemini_Pony
Post by: Iris Patch on April 13, 2015, 11:10:06 AM

Here's the pony I made for gemini for the Monochrome Swap- from her list of likes, I chose purple and ravens and came up with this girl, a mysterious pony who speaks to ravens and has stars on her body.
The photos didn't come out perfectly color balanced- first one is probably closest.

I started with a baity Fizzy Pop and painted her with six kinds of purple acrylic paint, including the metallic paint on her eyes. She is rehaired with some actual feathers- they're dyed rooster hackles I found on Etsy. The rest of the hair is Dollyhair Ultraviolet, "Purple 1", and Hyacinth.

As a bonus, I drew up some art of Midnight Flight, and printed them on little stickers, in a mimicry of the puffy stickers that came with a lot of G1s.

I had a lot of fun with this, purple is my favorite color and ravens are awesome, and I hope gemini_pony loves it lots :)

I love her! The shades of purple you used are just perfect. My hubby loves her to because he likes purple as well.

What a unique custom! I love her color scheme and the rooster feathers. I especially find that the combination of her painted body, multi-colored hair, and twinkle eyes make her an attention-grabber--beautiful job! ^.^
