What shades from Dollyhair would be the closest to the G4 Cheerilee's light and dark pink? Keep in mind I'm trying to match the toy, not the show.


Thanks in advance!

kinda looks like bubblegum and pussycat....but in the box it's reay hard to tell...

[kittybethy]

I would agree.

Cheerilee's dark pink is shared with Pinkie Pie and Heartthrob is what I've heard suggested for it. Matching the light pink is a bit harder. if you only need streaks, you could salvage from the pale streak on Plumsweet. For Dollyhair, Fairy's Breath is paler is more purple. You might be able to blend something if you fool around with Pussycat and white but you do run the risk of having it fade on you later.

Heh, I'm actually planning to reroot a Fashion Style (because Cheerilee is best pony). What about Pink Sugar?

"Some people have noticed that tea rose is too dark to match ponies like Cotton Candy, Bow Tie, Snuzzle, etc. I believe that the reason why is because tea rose, although it is the original manufacturer's color, has faded over time on some ponies. Therefore, if you're looking to match a pony with faded hair, then pink sugar should be your answer. Photo coming soon!"


The light pink in her hair looks really similar to Dewdrop Dazzle and Fluttershy's pale pink, if that helps. Actually I'm incorrect, Dewdrop's and Fluttershy's hair is quite a bit more saturated than Cheerilee's light streaks. She IS an exact match for the light streaks in Daisy Dreams' hair, though. The colour is like... I dunno, like an already faded Fading Pink, so maybe Pink Sugar is the best bet?


Thanks, ponies!

It is definitely pussycat and heart throb.

Pink sugar is a much darker pink, it wouldn't be a close match at all.

It is definitely pussycat and heart throb.

Okeedokee! Thank you <3

Isn't Pussycat the match for the newer Fluttershys, though? Is it on the pale side for her?
(I don't have much call for pinks and haven't seen it in person so I wouldn't know for experience )

I took a picture of Cheerilee's (left) and Fluttershy's (right) pale pinks next to each other, if that helps anyone. If Pussycat is the same as Fluttershy's newer pale pink then it might not be the right shade after all.

[Lon-san]

Might still work. DH doesn't have a lot of exact matches for G4s and the ones on my list-in-progress are more "close as possible" than perfect. Can somebody with a hank of it check it against their Cheerilee or Plumsweet? My apologies if I came off as know-it-all.

[saply]

In this instance though, a know-it-all is exactly what I need.


I've decided I'm just going to order Pussycat and a couple of other colours to see which looks best. Thanks everyone!

Ooh, good call on the Pussycat ladies. I thought it might be too dark looking at the whole hank, but when I started working with it it's almost a perfect match for her. Thank you!
