So still bummed I had to miss the MD meet (have not felt like posting my candy customs... maybe come halloween as I have been thinking I can retrofit the candy apple one a bit for that and the candy dish one I can maybe re-do the colors a bit so I'm just calling them WIPs for now...)
anyhow, DB's mom over at the TP was super awesome to actually commission me to do my Big Macintosh again so here he is - improved I think - as now he has his yoke . Also total shout out THANKS! to CSA for the airbrushing = she was awesome to send me the perfect base to work on :-)

)

loginthe hair is all salvaged from other MLP = mostly G3 tails = in that golden and orange-y combo that I think just worked = tried to give him the appropriate do ;-)
sealed the eyes triple gloss and mod podge on the rest...
I'm gonna see if ceramcoat over my next symbol might smooth it better... that's the only part I am still wanting to perfect (obviously) but glad to have read about using a pencil transfer method to template that apple on him (thanks to? dang I'll see if i can look that up...)
hope ya'll like
eeyup...
