Description This one has been kicking around since Bronycon, so it feels great to get her finished. 


Another rearing Spitfire, this time with goggles off. The highlight in her mane got lost in the photo, but I assure you its there. One day I will learn that painting the Wonderbolts uniform sucks, but not likely anytime soon. 


Spitfire stands 8 inches tall (she's a big one!) and is made of super sculpey and sculpey firm over a wire and foil armature, painted with acrylics, and sealed with matte acrylic spray.

You sculptures never fail to impress me. And make me jealous of your amazing talents...
Very nice Spitfire.

Gadzooks... good job on this. I much prefer my Spitfire suitless, but you did a rather stunning job on this. I don't even wanna know how long it took to get finished.

Thanks! I can't even remember how long this took, its been sitting around 75% done for so long that I finally forced myself to finish.

I like suitless Spitfire as well, but I hate painting her weird cutie mark. Perhaps its time to give it another go.

A layered stencil, cut out with an xacto knife does wonders. It's how I did this cutie mark here fox-starwing.deviantart.com/ar…

Excellent work! The sun is so exact and perfect! I may have to borrow this trick for the future.

Print out the mark after resizing it, then cut a base layer, then for the next upper color, and so on until you have all the colors done! The trickiest part is cutting the doggon thing out. A slightly heavy gauge of paper works best, card stock is what I used I think.

Interesting you spend your time finding MLP art just to hate on it.

Thanks!


Flash Sentry should be arriving any day now. If for some reason you don't receive him (postmen who are bronies or something of the like), please let me know and I will make you a new one.

Well I will keep you a prized. ^^ Also I might have to count for extra costs also, if it anything like the items I bought on Ebay that over a certain price tag too. Stupid shipping tax.

Thank you! I keep meaning to get someone to do a digital version, but I'm sticking with the marker and paper version for now.
