Description I did these for my friend as a birthday gift.
The light blue one is her ponysona Althea Bloom and the green one is her book character David as a pony.

I'm so happy these turned out well.

Made with Applejack as the base and painted in acrylic. Custom sculpted features done with Model Magic, and everything coated in a shiny transparent glaze.

Ahaha, I didn't know either.
This was my first time trying to do customs like this. Before, the most I'd done was repaint some blindbags and sculpt little accessories for them.
I was really scared they wouldn't turn out well.
But they did.

How on EARTH did you do the hair?

Its air dry Model Magic clay. All I had to do was roll it out nice and thin, sculpt the manes and tails, and then varnish it all.

That seems simple enough!
Hehe...I was wondering if you baked the hair on and I was like .

Did you have to dye the ponies?

I think I'd melt them if I used oven bake clay!

I painted the ponies with two layers of acrylic paints.

Yay, finally an upload!!!!!

LOL, these ponies sure like windowsills....

I've been playing with my Pinkie Pie figure and the three of them have been going on adventures!!!! WE'RE GOING ON AN ADVENTURE!!!!

Althea Bloom accidentally broke a tiny bit of David's tail off by the way...XD

Hehe, yeah, they always seem to get photographed near windows, don't they? lolz


Yay! Pony adventures! I need you to send me photos of them together so I can make little comics with captions!

Oh no. Ooops. I laughed a bit harder than I probably should have there, though.

TOTALLLY!!!

BTW, I've started plans for my Pinkie Pie cosplay! I already have my head(LOL, wig and hair accessories) done, but our sewing machine is being fixed right now, so I can't start the outfit. Also, I need to get fabric. I'm getting ready to post my "blueprints"! LOL

Oh cool! I'll go check out those blueprints!

Meanwhile, I'm working on a Sherlock Cosplay (still need the button down shirt and the black slacks) as well as a simple Art Book cosplay (mostly to test if I can make wings and ears from duct tape. That seems to be a yes so far!)

That sounds awesome!!!!! I can't wait to see it!!! I almost wish I could do a John cosplay now! *hint hint*

LOL, but I don't even watch the show! Do you know how ridiculously weird that would be?

DragonsAndDreamscape In reply to SayonaraGoodbye [2013-04-23 01:37:57 +0000 UTC]

Wow, it'd be SO cool to have a John cosplayer with me when I cosplay Sherlock. But it would be a bit weird for you to cosplay a character you don't even watch!
I'm looking for a John sweater to start working on a John cosplay, actually, but I've yet to find a fitting one. :/

SayonaraGoodbye In reply to DragonsAndDreamscape [2013-04-23 17:17:49 +0000 UTC]

LOL, I agree!!! Maybe I'll be able to watch the show eventually - like a few years or something. Also, I'm nice and short when I stand by you, so I would be a good height. BUT I am a little too crazy and hyper to be John. Hey, I was thinking if we decided to go to TnT together we could enter the group cosplay contest as ponies!

I'll have to keep an eye out for a sweater for you then!

DragonsAndDreamscape In reply to SayonaraGoodbye [2013-05-23 03:05:25 +0000 UTC]

YES. Hopefully so. It's really good!
Our heights would make it great! And hey, just because you tend to be too hyper to actually BE John doesn't mean you can't cosplay him. I'm not brilliant (nor cold and rude, I hope), like Sherlock, but I'm still cosplaying him!

We should totally cosplay as ponies together somewhere!

Thanks Crys!
