Build-a-Bear AJ
« on: September 02, 2014, 12:30:51 PM »
We got her as soon as she came out, although they had no hats so had to wait another few weeks for that  :rolleyes:

Clare usually tries to make the hair on these BaB ponies look as close to the cartoon characters as possible, although sometimes there ain't a lot of hair to do so especially with big hair-do's like Pinkie and Fluttershy! Still, they look pretty good, but AJ didn't look quite right to me, so today she got a slight makeover . . .

That's better for a start! The hat is just a generic cowboy hat for the bears so isn't really the proper one, so I drew round an egg cup and cut out the notch in the front. Next up was a couple of bright red hair elastics (if that's what they're called? :shrug: )

Now she looks like AJ  :cheer:

The only thing still bothering me is the ear loops that hold the hat on, but it won't stay on her head otherwise  :wonder:

It might be possible to loop the elastics around some strong hair grips (the long ones hairdressers use would be ideal, I think. I'm not sure exactly what they're called, but they kind of look like crocodile clips), and then clip it into her mane?
Idly searching for: loose, good condition G4 Blossomforth, Starbeam Twinkle, Plumsweet. TTM Celestia doll's wings Within UK or EU only, please.
Will also take in Pretty Pony Club (UK magazine) fakies.

She's cute!

I'd never realized how large these plush ponies were until seeing these photos!

I love what you did with her mane! The red hair ties look a lot better then the sparkle red bows BaB was advertising as her bows(they arn't very Applejack, sparkles?)
You might be able to use a elastic string (like the kind on children's halloween masks) hot glue it to the hat and have the string go under her chin, might stay on a lot better and look nice :)
Buying any and all Sonic the Hedgehog items of any kind I don't already have. Can also trade ponies of all generations.
