On-model rehaired Lyra!

[jennovazombie]

Aww she's adorable! I think she looks great with the colors you picked out. :3

Exactly!

[PhyllieBean]

Exactly.  Waaaaay more politely!  Lol!  What's that thing every mother teaches their kids?  If you can't say something nice...

... Because my little "I have the dumb" streak just kicked in (sorry) - does that mean we agree on this, or was this irony?

Oh no my friend, we be in total agreement!   

And yes, back to the topic at hand.  This technique is awesome and SilkSpindle did a really fantastic job with this girl.  This is a custom, it's up to the artist's own interpretation, so who cares if the hair is a shade off from whatever color your tv monitor is at?  In all reality, depending on what your tv IS set at, we could ALL be seeing different colors!  It's actually the greatest mystery of all time as to what color Lyra's hair actually is!!  NOOOO OOOONE KNOOOOOWS!!  OOOOOOOHHHHHHH

she looks fabulous I love the yarn rehair technique you use! (and adore the tutorial, thank you so much for sharing)


this is a thread for an artist to show off THEIR interpretation of a pony. NOT a place to debate what you think she should have done.
Please keep it on topic.

You win the internets This takes me back to my days working with a publisher.

I think this discussion has brought up some super interesting ideas for customs, actually. It's got me thinking, at least! And that's one of the great things about the customs forum, we can inspire each other, right?

I wasn't even being rude.

Starly: It was rude, no one is taking anything some weird way.  But feel free to pretend we're all nuts.

The rehairing looks KILLER and I think this method will allow folks more control over matching the hairstyles in the show.  Really slick work <3

[Kalavista]

OMG. This custom is absolutely amazing!!! Awesome job - she is gorgeous!!

[Roccoriel]

This is a beautiful custom using a really interesting technique.  I love how soft her hair looks!  I hope you don't let people with criticism that is rude and not constructive get you down.  She is really lovely!

Totally. I want to see Fluttershy this way. I think it could get her the perfect combination of volume and sleekness that her heir style requires. I hope you'll make lots more to show us!

I'd love to see a full set of the main 6! I was taking a look at some of the G1's on one of the other threads and I think they look awesome!

That's my thought exactly!  This really gets those show accurate results that are next to impossible to achieve with nylon.

OK, I will REPEAT. this is NOT a debate about what color the artist should have used.

any more off topic comments will be removed. Have some respect for the artist and her work.
