Custom swap with Pandabear_chan, Sunset pony

[Claramel]

Hello all,

Recently I had the fortune to do a custom swap with Pandabear_chan and her custom has now arrived!

First off I'll just say that Pandabear_chan is such a wonderful person to work with - she's always friendly and quick to respond to any questions. I had a great time doing this swap!

Pandabear requested a pony with a scene of New York at sunset. I airbrushed her to get the gradients, painted the city scene and used some glow in the dark paint so that the skyline shows in the dark. I also used some new hair from dollyhair (brilliant black) which has a gorgeous sheen to it - very black but shiny too!

That's absolutely gorgeous! I adore how the hair compliments the paint so perfectly. And I love city sunsets, so this whole pony is just a gem in my eyes. Pandabear_Chan is very lucky!
Job well done, and if had the skills to do a trade or the money to buy one, I would do it in a heartbeat!

Baby I'm from New York!
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of, There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York!
These streets will make you feel brand new, Big lights will inspire you,
Hear it for New York!
*singing*

I simply adore the pony, she turned out to be a truly perfect looking beauty!
She was done from the idea of turning a song in a pony and so Alicia Key's song was the basic idea. Each time I look at her, I have the song in my head and as this is one of my most favourite one, it matches perfectly.

Thanks a ton for the awesome trade, I'll load up pics of my trade part tomorrow or on Sunday.

Thankyou for all your lovely comments everyone, it's made my day!

Pandabear-chan has hit the nail on the head, I forgot to mention she's based off a song. It's great when you see something and it reminds you of your favourite song. Everyone keep an eye out for the custom she made me - it's gorgeous!

NoDivision - don't hide! You are so talented and I'm sure any sunset pony you create will be stunning!
