First custom blind bags!


I decided to try painting blind bag ponies. :3 It was actually a good while a go already when I did my first two, but I just have forgotten to make a blog post about them! They have been on my DA thought.
The first one I painted was Blue Lace in the pic above. Blue Lace is my OC pony used in RPG. I love it how she turned out. That figure is now my official mascot for RPG sessions. u__u
Blue Lace was repainted from Fluttershy (who is just recolored RD...) that's why she is here.


My second repaint was made from Twilight Sparkle base. She is Tardis pony. Her cutie mark is windows of Tardis.
I made her to accompany me to Ropecon, where I wore Tardis themed dress.

In the second pic you can also see that I used normal (cheap) acrylic paints. Someone asked about the paints I use. From the pic you can see the mark of the paints too. These are my first two MLP blind bag repaints, but I'm sure that more will follow. Painting is so fun! Next I might do Derpy for myself. I just need more spare blind bag ponies. (Have some? Send them for me! u__u)
Later I might try customizing with Sculpey too. ^__^

Pinkies Party hair - Round 1

Pinkie went to salon to get her party hairdo!
I think that I should buy small heat rollers or something for better result, buuuuut maybe this can do for now.



I used drinking straw and hairpins to do her curls. I have heard many people using this method instead of heat rollers if they don't have any.
Hairdryer did the warming job nicely and the curls do stay, but when I used the hairdryer it made some hairs to escape from the rolls - the result came out a bit messy.
Maybe next time I try dipping her into hot water of something less windy. :D

Maybe she has just been in awweeesome party and has a bit messy hair?
