ice_skater_fizzy_by_lightningsilver_mana-d9gcsxq.jpg




As the first custom to kick off my holiday themed custom pony project, I decided to do a ice skater Fizzy instead of a roller waitress Fizzy~

Pony base is a generation 3 shy pose, horn is from a generation 4 Princess pony. I pinned the horn in place then secured it around the base with jeweler’s glue.

I now have a new favorite glue.

For the eyes, I cut out the original flat pupils and put them in my sack of isolated pony parts.Who knows when they’ll be needed in a future project~

I then Krazy glued squares of white leather inside the head behind the eye holes, then filled the eye sockets with more of the jeweler’s glue which made a nice smooth workable surface.

Next, I coated the entire pony in Gesso for her paint work to bond to, then did a full body repaint job in aqua paint, painted her eyes in my generation 1 mlp/rainbow fusion style (lol what else do I call it) then hand-painted her cutie marks on both sides of her flanks.

All paint work sealed in Artists Varnish.

Mane and tail are rooted in nylon mlp hair in the colors tea rose, white chocolate, old bubble gum and sea nymph. Mane and tail are permanently styled/hardened in my hair gel method!

Skates where boiled off of other generation 3 skater ponies and I was able to fit them on this Fizzy custom. I lined them with faux white fur, then fastened stripes of gold faux vinyl at the tops.

Was originally going to do layered and pleated skirts around the mid-drift of the pony’s body, but I stitched the shiny red material and layered pleated white/gold fabric over top, and it turned out to work best like a fancy shrug.

The skirt idea worked as a nice starting off point, love it when things work this way~ makes my work more original.

Lined her neck with a gold ribbon choker, strung some beads on floral wire as a broach/necklace, tied a shiny green/aqua bow at one end and glued a large pale green star at the other end.

Made a large golden bow for the back of her hair, pinned down a large golden Christmas tree adornment in the middle of it, and fastened a red bow at the top.

Made 2 strings of shiny confetti and beads on floral wire, fastened those on each side of her mane, finished the look off with a few rhinestones.

Tied a bow on her tail with a festive pom pom, and tried to find a close ribbon match to her vintage tail ribbon on the original pony.

Custom pony figure of the generation 1 pegasus pony named Paradise, hand-crafted by me as a generation 3 custom figure in a Holiday Christmas theme.

This is custom #2 of my holiday series.

Pony base is a engineered pose from two different generation 3 ponies.

Body coated in Gesso to create a texture for the acrylic paints to bond to, and full body paint job in white acrylics.

Cutie mark and eyes are also hand-painted in my style. Other painted details on this are the striped beads I made look like candies.

All paint work is sealed in Artists Varnish.

Wings are cloth wrapped over wire, I had them in a package in my art supplies. Can’t remember where they came from, but figured no better use for them, than now. They are pinned in place, with a dark green star rhinestone in the middle.

Mane and tail are rooted in nylon mlp hair in the color firebird, an exact match for the original g1 Paradise mlp.

I curled the hair and permanently gave it shape with my hair gel method.

Accessories- started fastening a festive-colored sash around the belly/back, and fastened silver ornaments around the bottom.

Then, came up with a wreath-like accessory for around the neck. Started off with a twisted rope trim textile, and stitched a thin line of neon green faux fur along the bottom. Tied a triple-layered ribbon/bow around the neck of metallic pink ribbon and burgundy thin ribbon. Took a cherry trinket I made when I was a teenager that I’ve kept all these years, and fastened it with a large gold bell and a green/white striped candy bead I crafted and pinned them on the wreath around where the bow is. I then cut off tiny sections of red/green strings of ornaments, and fastened them in place. Made two strings of beads and fastened them in place on each side.

Stockings- got out a oriental pale aqua material and stitched some of the neon green faux fur along the tops, then folded over wide red/white striped ribbon along the tops. Did a running stitch with the pieces inside out, then turned them right side in, put them on the pony’s hind feet then stitched darker green bows with tiny silver bells in place. Tied a darker green ribbon/bow on tail for contrast.

Made two strings of beads on floral wire for the hair embellishments (consisting of seashells, neon beads and fruit), then pinned the remaining two striped candy beads I crafted into place, then a small strip of gold star string of ornaments, some layered confetti, rhinestones along the hairline then a large silver bow in the back, to finish.

Pony base is custom engineered pose from two different generation 3 ponies. Body of a diva pose, head of a standing pose

Entire head and body has a base coat of Gesso to provide a texture for the acrylic paint work to bond to.

Full body repaint in coral red acrylics, gingerbread man cutie mark also hand-painted, eyes painted in my realism/fusion rainbow style in Molasses’s original colors. Paint work sealed in Artists Varnish.

Mane and tail re-rooted in nylon mlp hair in the colors white chocolate and blueberry muffin.Curled and permanently hardened in my hair gel method so it stays in shape forever.

Bodily accessories-

Started with the cream and gold star piece around the neck. Stitched, then pleated a green scarf material and stitched it to the cream piece. Put a line of silver ornaments around it. Made pale aqua sleeves to go underneath it, stitched from a nice silk material, cream lace hemming the sleeves. Pale green bias tape fastened for the chest piece, a string of gold star ornaments across the chest, red ribbon bow stitched then tied in place with pink pom poms stitched at the ends. Stitched red and green ribbon bows on each side.

Hind leg warmers- Stitched together 4 layers of bias tape in the colors neon red, pale tan brown, pale aqua and chartreuse. Pleated a side magenta/white polka dot ribbon at the top, stitched in place. Made candy canes from red leather and white/green hemp cord and tied a aqua bow behind it and put it on the cutie mark side with a light blue star rhinestone to finish. Other side has light brown paper craft gingerbread men, and a few rhinestones.

Tail ribbon is vaguely the original colors of Molasses’s tail ribbon but I layered more colors in and made a yellow lollipop from a clear yellow bead and yellow toothpick.

Mane- started with putting red and green shiny paper craft stars in her hair then building on that. Tied in some festive ribbons here and there, hand-crafted candies, lollipops and candycanes. Beads are painted stripes, and I tied ribbons to look like candy wrapping. For lollipop,took a cream colored round bead and glued a toothpick for the stick then wrapped transparent blue plastic around it then tied in place with green hemp cord. Candy cane is exactly same method as the one I made below the cutie mark. Added a couple more paper craft gingerbread men, and festive rhinestones on her forehead to finish.

:xmastree2::glitterball2::flutter2:Sister Stockings:rudolph::holly::snowflake::CJ:

Generation 3 custom of generation 1 pony Baby Stockings, but this is crafted from an adult-sized pony so I call this “Sister Stockings”. Could be thought of as a older sister to Baby Stockings.

:fizzy::glitterball1::holly:----SOLD----:xmastree::santa:fifi


sister_stockings_by_lightningsilver_mana-d9igwky.jpg

Pony base is an engineered pose with a body of a core 7 clone pose, head of a different pose. Left original body color on both pieces.

Mane and tail are re-rooted in dollyhair’s nylon mlp hair in the color candy apple, exact match for generation 1 Baby Stockings.

Eyes and cutie mark hand-painted by me in my own style. Eyes are sealed in Artists Varnish.


Attire: Started with the skirt attachment on the left flank. Pleated red/green plaid cotton material, hemmed the top with a nice white material and pleated neutral aqua and olive green sequin scarf ruffles along the bottom, attached a string of shiny red and green plastic Christmas ornaments in the middle with a “stuffed animal” white bear attached.


Pony “doll” attached to tail is a Petite Pony I customized. Severed off the stand with a hoof print on it, and attached it to the middle of a large red bow I put in the mane. Severed off the aqua tail bow and attached it to a swirly wooden yellow piece that is also in the mane. I then painted the old mane and bow on the Petite pony, and changed her cutie mark to a candy cane. Made her a new tail from nylon mlp hair in the color white chocolate and attached it to the tail hole with Krazy glue and made her a new light green tail ribbon bow then curled her tail in my permanent hair gel method. Pony is Krazy Glued to the tail of Sister Stockings.


Repeated the neutral aqua fabric for a under-layer piece then pleated the plaid fabric for sleeve cuffs then used a dark teal cotton fabric for sleeves and torso pieces, lined the bottom of the torso piece with cream lace hem. Layered gold star ornaments and golden rope over top to finish.

Lined white faux fur I trimmed down, across the chest then put shiny pink and gold ribbon straps across the back of the neck and down both sides of the front, and fastened it in place with red holiday fabric flowers, added rhinestone detail and silver ornaments for a necklace.


Mane embellishments- Started with stringing lightbulbs, yellow pastel ribbon bead, pink bead and flower beads on floral wire and attaching to mane. Painted white stripes on green beads to make candy beads and tied green ribbon inside them to make them look wrapped. Tied and glued ribbon in square-shaped beads to make beads that look like presents. Finished off the look with various ribbons tied in place, and rhinestone detailing along the forehead.


Dress shoes are teal ribbon wrapped around the hind legs with bows tied, soles are dyed purple leather glued in place then smaller ribbons tied at the tops, some flower beads pinned in place then rhinestone detailing to finish.

merry_treats_by_lightningsilver_mana-d9iw9su.jpg

Pony base is an engineered pose from two different generation 3 white ponies- body of a walking pose, head of a donkey pose.

Left original body color, eyes are hand-painted in my realism style in Merry Treat’s pale green color, but I decided to blend a monochromatic theme this time, embellished with rhinestones. Her eyes have blue star rhinestones in the pupils.

Cutie mark is a 3-D Santa trinket I’ve had in my doo-dad drawer since my childhood, and have had no purpose for up until now. A lot of his paint had been worn off, so I repainted him. Painted holly leaves around him and added metallic red rhinestones for the berries. Took a strip of red leather and a strip of white leather, put glue on them then twisted them together to make a candycane to put in the Santa’s hand.

Mane and tail are rooted in dollyhair’s nylon mlp hair in the colors candy apple red, and dragonfly green.Left her hair style plain and straight, true to the original Merry Treats pony from the 80’s.

For her outfit, decided to do a santa suit, but in a pale pink.

Started off with beige boots. Cut them from real leather, used a leather hole puncher to punch holes along the edges for the hem stitches. Soles of boots are same leather. Lined the bottoms with pale gray strips of leather, and a beige thin ribbon. Hemmed the tops with white faux fur.

I then hand-stitched her coat train, front leg sleeves and chest piece from a pale pink fabric with a shiny sheen to the textile. Lined all the pieces with white faux fur, stitched down some white bias tape on the chest piece with pink medium neutral ribbon over top with red beads for buttons.

I wanted to use a coral red material that has a gold sheen to it, so I made her hat out of it. Cut a large triangle from the fabric, stitched it then hemmed the bottom with faux fur, and stitched a bell at the end. Stitched tiny silver bells on light green ribbon, tied a bow and attached it to a red flower rhinestone and attached it to her coat.

Santa sack- took a glass ball and stitched some red & white printed material around it. I had pre-crafted some presents from beads and a striped candy bead, so I stitched them along with various other beads and a tiny toy aqua/yellow rocking horse on the sack, and a cluster of large gold bells. There is a glass red buld bead on there too.

christmas_medley_by_lightningsilver_mana-d9jo3ko.jpg


Pony base is custom engineered from two different generation 3 ponies- body of a unicorn, head of a different open-mouthed pose. Wings are severed from a generation 4 princess pony.

Entire pony base is coated in Gesso for the paint to bond to.

Full body repaint in a custom blend of aqua and pale neutral green acrylic paints.

Eyes are painted in Medley’s blueberry muffin iris color, but given expression in my realism/fusion rainbow style. A few rhinestones embellish.

Cutie mark is layered in medium, dark, metallic, and glitter pigments of greens. Embellished in red, clear and blue rhinestones. All paint work sealed in Artists Varnish.

Mane and tail are rooted in nylon mlp hair in the color lucky clover.

Added snowflake, flowers and other various rhinestone embellishments along the wing bases and mane. Painted a green bead with white stripes, and tied green ribbon through it to make it look like a candy, and took a large green square bead and tied red ribbon through it to make it look like a large present, stitched it into the hair ribbon as a Christmas accessory. Took 2 blue square beads and tied ribbons through them to make them look like presents also and attached them underneath the wing bases. Made a few strings of festive-colored beads on floral wire and pinned them into the mane.

Added two “#” sharp earrings along her mane to compliment her musical note cutiemarks!

Bells added in mane and under wing as well.

Accessories were kept pretty simple and straight forward which kept costs down on this design, so she has a layered a necklace of which I strung silver beads and Christmas light bulbs on floral wire, then attached silver ornament and gold star ornaments underneath.

Did simple hind leg warmer, by taking cerulean blue bias tape, teal maxi piping, neutral medium pink bias tape and stitching them together then tucking a line of neon green faux fur to finish.

This fur I got from back in my beginner days~ tucked a small tuft of the fur in the mane to finish it off.

:cc::rudolph::eek:rnamentgreen:Also pictured is a custom I did of U.S. Gingerbread, yes there is a deal! Take both versions of Gingerbread- U.S. and International variant designs for $45.00 each~:santasmile::snowflake::CJ:

argentina_gingerbread_by_lightningsilver_mana-d9kxgwu.jpg

For this custom, I decided to take some creative liberty. I noticed there were two different types of Argie Gingy with different colored manes. One had a deeper red stripe in mane, other had bright flaming firebird red. One had the yellow stripe, one had a hint of green in the yellow stripe. So I used both reds for the red stripe, and a greenish yellow for the yellow stripe.

The pony appeared to have pale pink or washed-out colored eyes that appeared white in one photo, so I decided to make them white with pink shadow/lashes but in the U.S. Twinkle Eye method.


Argie Gingerbread is a unicorn while the U.S. Gingerbread is a earth pony~

So for the pony base, I custom engineered a pose from two different generation 3 ponies- body of a orange glitter pony, and head of a unicorn. Carved out the irises/pupils of the original eyes, glued some white leather inside the head and set the Twinkle Eyes in with Jeweler’s glue after painting.


Entire pony coated in Gesso to give the paint a texture to bond to. Full body repaint with a base of pale gray acrylics, then several delicate fully dried layers of white.

Eye lashes and shadows painted in my own style, cutie mark also hand-painted by me.

All paint work sealed in Artists Varnish.


Mane and tail rooted in synthetic hair:

Red stripe- candy apple and firebird red nylon dollyhair

Yellow stripe- mojito monofiber RetrodollsUS hair

Blue stripe- waternixie nylon dollyhair


Attire- started with the bodice. Cut from a red cotton fabric with white berries printed on it. Lined with seafoam green pompoms along the hem, white bow at the middle, golden hearts down the middle. Front chest piece was stitched from the same material, but lined with white bias tape along the hems, the same golden heart beads down the middle with a pale yellow star button at the top with light green bow. Glass pink bead necklace at the top with light green bows at each end.

Gave the bodice sleeves of cream-lace, with tiny tufts of faux white fur layered over top.


Leg warmers- hind legs are cut from a dark green floral wide ribbon with silver lace stitched along the top and light brown bias tape hemmed along the bottom, light green bows stitched in place to finish.

Front leg warmers- Started with cutting the pieces from a pink cotton sash, stitched candy cane ribbon towards the tops, then stitched strings of beads at tops and bottoms embellishing with darker green bows, rhinestones and paper gingerbread men on one leg.


Mane- Starting off point was some retro antique pink flower beads I got off a necklace that was in a pack of Mardi Gras beads at my local swapmeet. (felt like a real treasure find!)

So I planned out the vision around those, making strings of beads with them on floral wire in festive Christmas-themed colors. Added one to the tail.

Balanced out the look with a few ribbon bows in the hair, and a few shiny strings of ornaments.

Gave her a pony tail with a long yellow ribbon, wired some more of the antique retro orb beads with other varied beads,.


Giant green Christmas bulb in hair I got off a cupcake topper. I bought a box of Christmas cupcakes to keep the toppers, and run them through my dishwasher so I can use them on custom ponies.

It is glued in place.

Rhinestones embellished along forehead~


Added another paper gingerbread man to the bow to finish.

sweet_stuff_by_lightningsilver_mana-d9lbirj.jpg


One of the last customs of my Christmas series, generation 1 My Little Pony named Sweet Stuffed, crafted as a generation 3 figure in a Christmas theme.

Cause when I think of gum drops, I think of Christmas a bit~

Pony base is a generation 3 shy pose. Coated the pony in Gesso to make a texture for paint work to bond to~

Full body repaint job in light powder blue acrylics. Gauged original iris/pupils out of pony and filled holes with jeweler’s glue with twinkle eyes over them. Lashes/shadow painted in my realism/fusion rainbow style.

Cutie marks hand-painted by me also, added a few layers of glitter acrylics to make them stand out more. I also feel that gum drops should be sparkly/powdery.

All painte work sealed in Artists Varnish.

Mane and tail rooted in nylon mlp hair in the colors Wisteria, heartthrob, brilliant pussycat, and white chocolate. Added a ribbon bow to the tail in attempt to match original Sweet Stuff.

Accessories- Started off painting striped beads, set them aside to dry. And made candy canes from red/white twisted hemp cord, set those aside to dry too.

Started with the neck piece, pleated ruffles from a silky cream/gold star fabric with pale seafoam green layer of fabric, then a silver tinsel trim over top. Attached a string of silver ornaments across the front, a red Christmas flower in the middle with two strands of silver beads poking out from one side, strung on floral wire.

Attached a pale green bow with 2 candy canes on one side.

Leg warmers- did a loose pleat of sheer white material with gold strips on it, then hemmed the top with chartreuse bias tape then stitched gold star ornaments to finish. Added just 2 silver rhinestones to one side.

Hind legs, started with a very wide wire gold Christmas flower print ribbon, lined the bottoms with the seafoam green fabric and meshed the two textiles together with the silver tinsel trim. Finished with candy canes and green metallic cord tied in a bow.

Mane- started off attaching the candy beads I made. At the front is a 3-D cutiemark I kept off of a g3 Minty and just kept the cutiemark trinket around for such a purpose as detailing this Sweet Stuff custom. Painted the pink stripes red.

Added large green star rhinestones, sheer and metallic purple scarf material, seafoam green pom pom trim, more metallic green cord bow, the last candy cane I crafted, a third string of silver beads with a pink glass bead at top, and various rhinestones along the forehead and mane scalp line.

That’s all, folks! Buy her~
You know you want to~
