Did you give her the curls? They look nice!

[HappyHounds]

The base came with the curls!
I love them as well.
The first two are a bit frizzy and unraveling, so I should probably fix them up

verry nice! but I can't help but to notice that your paint is a bit think in some places showing  the brush strokes. 

for future customs try diluting the paint a little with water and applying even thin coats.
it will take a bit longer to paint this way but the result will be a much smoother finish.

I do like the way you've done her symbol / cuttie mark here.   the colors complement each other nicely too

try experimenting with all kinds of  different materials when customizing.   

hope you have lots of fun making more customs and  trying new things.

Agree with using water to dilute the paint- make it VERY THIN - it may take you 3 or so layers to build up the color- but it avoids the brush lines and clumping.

Honestly I would probably try removing the paint and trying again.  If the custom is recent enough, you may actually be able to get a lot off with some soap and water and then acetone for the stubborn parts. I noticed you got some on the mane and sometimes if the paint hasn't been there long it will still wash off.  But otherwise, acetone. You can get it SUPER cheap at a hardware store.  !

I know thin careful layers are labor intensive- which is why some people break down and buy an airbrush (which also require layers)- but the results are worth it!

You might try a color that is more opaque- white actually requires more layers than most.

I like the idea of mixed media on a pony!
