Author Topic: The Changeling Queen Hasbro Inspired Fair Contest Winner! (Read 1673 times)

For this year's Hasbro Inspired contest I decided to take a chance and make a G1 version of FIM's Queen Chrysalis - The Changeling Queen. I say take a chance because I was convinced there would be more than one but I lucked out and mine was the only entry based on this character.

She started out as an extremely bait SHS (not sure with one). I carefully used my Dremmel tool to drill out the holes in her legs. I then dyed just her legs using black Rit dye in order to get the insides of her legs to turn black. Her horn, outfit (if you can call it that) and little fangs were sculpted from apoxie sculpt. She was then airbrushed completely back but given some green gradients. I then went over all of her gradients a second time with glow in the dark paint. Her outfit, eyes and fangs were then hand painted. I have some amazing green glow powder sent to me by Malancaiwen - I mixed some with a bit of sealer and rimmed all of the holes in her legs, her fangs, her eyes and her horn so they all glow. Her wings are made from fantasy film which were also coated in the green glow powder. And finally she is rehaired with glow in the dark hair (not sure of the type, I've never worked with anything like it.) also provided by Malancaiwen.

I was beyond thrilled when she was announced the winner of the Hasbro Inspired contest at this year's fair. All fair attendees were given a voting card to vote in the various contests so she won by popular vote.

She is not for sale - she went home with the lovely Tiella.

My camera failed at capturing all of her "glow" so I'm including an enhanced shot so you can see all the elements which actually glow.

And of course a photo of her with her 1st place ribbon.

I almost forgot to mention that I couldn't stand the idea of leaving her with blank flanks so I painted her a symbol. I figured since the contest was Hasbro Inspired she didn't have to be show accurate.

Besides being a SHS, she looks very much like the one I am working on! Shes pretty! Im just about to start cutting the wire for my wings too

So its really nice to see some already made. She's so pretty! And seeing yours with long hair, I think I have changed my mind on mine. I originally wanted to do real hair, but then saw one someone did as a brushable and the hair looked.. bad... So I decided to do sculpted instead.. And now seeing yours, I see that the hair can look good, so I may go back to my original plan

Congrats Pop!! (and lucky Tiella, who gets to keep her)

I love everything about her. You can see all the hard work and love that went into her. I adore the fact she was SHS, just perfect for her. I

her abstract symbol and fabulous wings.
