Very first custom
« on: June 07, 2012, 03:34:54 PM »
This is one of two. I'm hoping the second will be done by this time tomorrow. I have to get her hair in and give her a boil perm. They are for the two girls next door. They were supposed to be for Christmas but their birthdays were in May so I'm thinking they'll just be a late birthday presents because I can't wait for them to see them!

She was a blank pony from Hasbro. I painted her with Apple Barrel and Folk Art paints. Sealed her with Modge Podge and reahaired her using the needle and thread method with Gingerbread from dolly hair.

She's adorable and I Love how you did her hair. It's simple, but really cute.

She is a great first custom. I am not sure if it is the lighting but is her back lighter then her body?  It looks a little distracting.  Where you going for a blended look?  I love the hair, it is a nice contrast and her eyes are lovely.

I used the sgenes from Ponyisland.net. There's one called Fawn and she has Colorized Fawn. The two colors are a lot closer than I had intended but it looks a lot better when you're holding her. I'll be the first to admit my lighting sucks and all I have to take pictures is my iPhone lol


This is what I used as my idea.

I think she looks lovely. The paint job is nice and smooth, the hair is well done, everything else just experience. I would suggest getting a shiny or gloss sealant for the eyes. I know Mod Podge has a glossy one.


Once again, she is beautiful.
