Help Please: Want to rehair my FS Shining Armor in Show Acc color/length

[sunshine29102]

Need a little help, please
Has anyone rehaired a Shining Armor in show accurate colors and/or length hair? If so, what colors did you use (would be ordering from Dollyhair.com)?   

If you'd like to share pics, please feel free!

Bobby Blue, Forget me not, and water nixie. I THINK!!

Saja, he looks so much better rehaired than with his poofy factory hair! I was definitely thinking bobby blue, just didn't know for sure about the other color(s).   Did you request a "blend" of the 3 colors or did you just order separate colored hanks?

Pretty sure I want to do Cadance, too.  FBR and rehair... You know, because I'm a little OCD about show accuracy.

Thank you for the reply and awesome pic.  It's greatly appreciated!

Wow! Nice job Saja! He looks much better than the one I have with his troll hair!!

Post pics when you are done with yours Sunshine. I would like to see how he turns out. Maybe it will inspire me to do a rehair!

Will do, Gloomy! I plan on rehairing my FS Rainbow Dash, too.  Hate that her mane isn't show accurate most of all... LOL.

I ordered 3 separate hanks, but that's coz I rehair heaps, but if your just doing him asking for a blend would be great!

I used Lapis Sapphire, Bobby Blue, and Atomic Turqouise, on a normal sized Shining Armor, I think, I have a lot of blues, I KNOW one was lapis Sapphire, as the darkest blue, and I think the other two work well even if they are what I didn't use. I looked at lots of vectors and screencaps to get the color pattern to match as well as I could too, and just shoved a mix of the three blues in for his tail because lazy.
No pics, sorry, I don't even know where he is..

Here is my g4-g3 Shining Armor. I think I used Lapis Sapphire and Water Nixie and Forget-Me-Not as well. I wouldn't order a blend because then you can control what color goes where better. But maybe that's just me

Love your customs! They look fantastic! May I ask what colors you used on your Cadance?  -- I haven't really ordered a lot of different colors from dollyhair in the past, so I'm always curious to hear what are the best matches that other customizers/restorers have come up with. Thanks!
