The Only G1 Custom I May Ever Do

Wow, she's gorgeous! The purple is stunning! Did you use a special paper and glue for the symbol? Don't feel bad about "cheating"....I used a temporary tattoo on my last custom cause I have no artistic skills. But printing and gluing sounds like a great idea! Might have to try that if you didn't have to use special paper or glue!

If I ever do it again I'm going to try sticker paper, but this was just regular printer paper on a regular colored printer.  After it was printed I sprayed the image with mod podge, then once it was dry cut it out with surgical scissors.  Then I painted tacky glue onto the back.  Getting it to lay smoothly is the hard part.  Then I sealed it with satin glaze.

I'm gonna be completely honest Far Dreamer. I never liked Rapunzel at all because of her colors. I like yours much better and personally wished the original looked like that.

I love her! And I love your solution for her symbol. I have wanted to make one for myself for a long time, but her symbol is what always stopped me. I may just try your trick!

Thanks so much everyone!  I was really worried that since so many customizers are so good, that folks would hate her because of the cheater symbols.  But I really just made her for myself, so I guess it wouldn't matter.  I figured out how to get her curls to hang more nicely!

The original symbols are some kind of decal anyway I think? Cool pony, how did u re-style the hair?
