Who said rehairing is a long, boring and tedious process? I practically finished within a couple of days! XD and I'm just a beginner!  :biggrin:

Originally this custom was supposed to be a molded hair Anthony Kiedis pony, but I just had the red FBR just sitting on top of my books for about a year and some months (due to laziness and moldy clay :x), and after I looked at enough tutorials and everybody else's fantastic customs, determination took over and I ripped off his head (while breaking the head turning plug in the process  >_< so she can't turn her head now :/)and started rehairing him/it using my leftover weave hair  (that you can get from your local beauty supply store) just using a sewing needle (I used a carpet needle...just any needle with a big eye to get the hair through) and started going to town c:
Getting the earring in was an absolute pain X_X I used a push pin and made a couple of holes close together and wriggled the pin part around in her ear to make the hole big enough for the wire
And obviously I still can't paint details XD but oh wells :P
And yes she has black glitter eyeshadow and a glitter choker. I figured the glitter would hide the slashes in her neck from when I was deplugging her using a small kitchen knife (It was brutal man X_X) because I have no idea where my only x-acto knife went  :huh:

To say the least I quite happy with here c: and I hope to make more purchase worthy customs in the near future in order to make some extra money on the side ^^

Thanks for any comments and advice in advance! Can't wait to see what y'all think! :D
Oh no!

I think her paintwork suits her theme well, she is a tough rocker and not a pretty princess girl! Love the earring too, nice touch!

Awww! Thanks guys :P I was beginning to think nobody liked her due to the lack of comments on the thread X'D but I'm glad y'all approve! <3

My head is already buzzing with ideas, all I need is some dollyhair and more bait X_X (all the bait I have is 2 Rarities, 2 Cheerilees, another set of the CMCs and another Star Dreams :s).
Oh no!

That is a hardcore rock pony to be sure!  Great color scheme and yeah I love her earring, too!

Oh and I think less people post on the weekends in general.  I'm not 100% sure but it seems that way to me.  So don't think it's you.  It's us XD
Thanks to Shimmlight for the new avatar image  :biggrin:
