« on: September 22, 2012, 04:02:30 PM »
I hope its alright to post it here, but I thought I would post pics of my first custom as I make it. Its a dollar general pony, and a mcdonalds pony is with it to show the difference in sizes.

Thanks! The main color is actually a wig I got on clearance from walmart  :lol: the highlights are from a fleamarket thing I pretty much got it for free. I got the line of holes filled now but it didn't have much in the hair department lol so I gotta figure out where I need to make holes

I believe I'm done with her head, I need to do her tail still far as rehairing but I need to figure out how to cut a hole out for her hair.

Super cute so far!  I love the colors!  I'd suggest using an exacto knife or a similarly super-sharp knife to cut a tail hole :)  Was there no hole already or was it plugs like there was on the head?

Ah thank you for the suggestion! I believe dad has some maybe I could borrow one lol.

It had plugs in it, and granted I could do a tail with plugs. However the tale is curled and would be hard to do as plugs without making it a super short tail lol.

Gotcha :)  Sounds like she's going to have a super thick tail!  That's always a good thing in my book!
