Custom-made accessories--is there a market for this?
« on: July 09, 2013, 07:49:31 AM »
(Mods, feel free to move this to Customs if you think it'll go better there.)

After everyone's disappointment with the paper accessories in the 2013 Favorite Friends set, I can't help wondering if people would buy removable Sculpey accessories for their G4s.

I've also been thinking of making the other 5 Elements of Harmony (Twilight's Magic crown element is already an official item) and maybe Applejack's hat for people who don't like her CE hat but don't want to repaint it.

I feel a lot safer baking Sculpey by itself than permanently baking it onto a non-baity pony (Call me crazy, but I'm NOT putting a pony in the oven).

I think people would enjoy them!  Several folks here sell custom wings or replicas of g1 accessories. :)

Ponies do bake well but I understand your hesitation.  I'd say put some saran/foil on the pony, sculpt over top of that so you get a nice tight fit, then take it off and bake.
I'm not really on here anymore. Email me if you need my for something.

Yes I agree - lots of people make custom accessories so I am sure something like this would be popular! I am sure if you make some brown AJ hats they will go down a treat too :)
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
Loa is my love god!
