What a cool idea! Here goes!
My very first custom, in 2008: Heath Ledger's Joker. I used a clone pony, paints, and felt and sticker accessories. The felt pockets are handsewn, the hair was dyed with RIT dye, in shades of brown and green. Sealed in Mod Podge. I still like how it turned out, although its obviously not my best work. It has attitude! I remember the RIT dye was very messy and smelly.

This is one of the last I sealed in Mod Podge, as in my climate Mod Podge gets tacky and causes paint to run. Now I use polyurethane varnish.

He was rehaired in yarn instead of nylon hair, and the mane is full of little beads, braids, and trinkets. I sculpted a pistol, sword, and compass, made a floppy pirate hat, and he's got a symbol on each flank.
