I love Twinkle Eyes! What a great thread idea :)

They all look beautiful ♥

Here's my Fizzy :) And I decided to paint her eyes with glitter instead of using gems

And I have a Sweet Pop and Masquerade in the works. I can probably post pics of Sweet Pop tomorrow, I just need to go buy some yellow paint tonight to do the sticks on her popsicle :)

I'd like to eventually make all the TE's into G4's so I'm also interested to hear which paint people used for Mimic :) I don't have my own to match either.

Hey there G4 Fizzy buddy!  :tackleglomp:  I think I remember seeing your post that you used a Lyra right?  That's a great color match!  Back when I made mine I was having a hard time finding a Lyra for my collection, much less to bait, so I had to take the hard way and paint up a Rarity instead.  :lol:  Your Fizzy looks great!  I love the glittery symbol!

I love those teardrop gems! They fit the look of the ponies really well. :D

Saply should get in here and show off her twinkle eye ponies. They're really lovely!

 :hifive: Hey there! Your Fizzy is beautiful too  :biggrin: Yeah I used a Lyra, she happens to be plentiful atm so I have a little stash of Lyra's for customs. I'm making a Fizzy for another member here and now my daughter wants one too  :blink: I'm going to be Fizzied out. You did a great job painting her body! I'm scared to do that but will have to plunge in soon because there aren't body colors for all the girls I want to make. Please share your tips for making it look even  :worshippy:

Haha Fizzied out!  No wonder everyone wants one, she looks beautiful!  My tricks aren't anything terribly exciting -- I use a couple colors of acrylic paint in a mix (more than one color seems to help with brush lines for some reason), thin it with a bit of water, and use several thin thin thin layers.  It'll look crummy at first and you'll freak out if it's your first time painting a pony by hand but the end result is so much nicer!  And then a good top coat is important -- I like to use Testors Dullcote for the body, and that always seems to help smooth out the appearance of the couple of tiny brushstrokes that are left over.

I can't wait to see your other TE's!  I'm sure they will turn out fantastic!  :biggrin:

Thanks for the info Alipes! Good to know because I probably would have freaked out about it looking streaky the first few coats  :P

Finished Sweet Pop! I added glitter to her eyes but didn't change the original color since it was close enough. Her cutie mark looks a little boring to me, maybe it needs some glitter  :P Masquerade will have to wait, I need to order 1 more color for her hair since I don't have it in my stash.

Shy Violet, she looks fantastic!  Although I agree, I think glitter on the symbol would be a nice touch!  :biggrin:

Each of these had eyes taken from their G1 counterparts.  Except Mimic, lol!

I have a few left, and baits for most of the ones that are gone.  Do you want one?
