Butterfly Swap Darling for Ren-Ren!
« on: August 16, 2012, 12:59:58 PM »
For the butterfly swap I got Ren-Ren as my partner. I tried to pay really special extra attention to her list of likes and dislikes so I could make her a pony she really loved. Since she's arrived at home now, I'll show her off!

Ren-Ren said that she liked G4 ponies, and her favorite eye style was Pinkie Pie, so I decided to just get a Pinkie and leave her eyes. She also said she wanted sculpted hair if at all possible. This was my first time mixing acrylic paint in to Apoxie Sculpt, but I love the light purple color that came out. And I was shocked at how nice my sculpting turned out on the hair too. XD

I need to make about 40,000 more ponies with Acetate wings. I LOVE them!

Very cute! The wings are beautiful and I really like the unique sculpted hair. The texture of the Apoxie looks interesting, almost like marshmallow or something... it looks really soft even though I know it's rock hard in real life. :D

Yep, she's a super cutie and I love her!  :lovey:

Thank you!! <3

Oh! You mixed paint with the apoxie?!  :shocked: I've never thought of that; I've always painted it after the fact. What a great idea! Definitely gonna try that next time I sculpt something. 
Thanks to Calico Star for my siggy! <3 (deleted cause photobucket)

When I was working with that Apoxie it kept making me think of grape bubblegum! Usually I paint the clay after, but since I wasn't doing any other painting I decided that mixing the paint in would be easier. Made it that I didn't have to do a lot of cleanup! It does make the clay a little stickier though with the extra moisture. :)

Ren-Ren I'm so glad you like her! I keep finding glitter all over though. XD

Her hair is too cute, and I love her wings!  Mixing paint with the apoxie sounds like it worked really well for you, too; that could be a neat trick to try out.
