Description:

Pony base is a generation 3 baby pony. Full body repaint job in layered brown acrylics, with several base layers of beige with various brown pigments textured over top. Face paint layered in various textures to resemble Skullkid’s face and add depth.

Tail is dollyhair’s nylon mlp hair in the color garnet jewel.

Outfit: started off with the boots. They are red leather with orange hemp detail.

Tunic is a pale coral red material with a strip of red leather eyelets hemmed with red maxi piping, with metal silver hoops strung on orange hemp cording.

Under the tunic, on the front legs and around the neck is dyed yellow feathers.

Hat is red leather detailed with red feathers. A string of silver metal hoops on orange hemp cording strung around, Skullkid’s fairies adorn his outfit.

Fairies are cotton balls painted with acrylic paint, wings are clear plastic from pony toy packaging painted in acrylic paints.

Mask is removal, and crafted from leather. Entirely hand-painted in acrylic paints, the eyes are painted metal rhinestones, entire thing sealed with mod podge.

The “thorns†of the mask are metal cones painted with acrylic paints, pinned into the leather with straight pins, a thick layer of tacky glue applied to the back of the mask to keep the pins permanently in place.

The moon is crafted from an art sponge. I soaked the sponge fully submerged in a container of watered-down mod podge for several hours. I then let the soaked moon sponge dry out completely for a few days, until the sponge was nice and hardened yet still workable.

I then painted the entire hardened sponge with various pigments of gray, black and brown acrylic paints, carved holes in the sponge for the mouth and eyes.

Mouth was constructed first, the gum lines are pink bias tape with white pearl rhinestones glued to them for the teeth. Mouth lined with black hemp cording.

Eyes are glass stone orbs that are often used to decorate the bottoms of fish aquariums. I painted the flat backs of the stones with thickly layered neon yellow acrylic paint. Did a thin layer of red acrylic paint along the edges, then layered grays and black for the pupil centers.

Nose is constructed from leather, shaped it accordingly and hand-sewed the points to shape it. It is glued to the face via Tacky glue and painted in gray and metallic acrylic paints.

There is a metal hoop fastened to the top of the moon for the magnet in the bottom of Skullkid pony’s front hoof to connect to and keep Skullkid pony in place on top of the moon.

Stand is styrafoam with a layer of faux brown leather material glued over top, a thin wooden dowel Gorilla-glued through the middle for propping the moon into place.


Next up is another Christmas gift for someone very dear to me, some persona and fursona designs.

Pics of a Pokemon-theme persona:

Description:
Pony base is a styling-sized Twilight Sparkle. The wings were cut from a generation 3 pegasus and fastened to the generation 4 body, black hemp cord line the bases of the wings.

Full body repaint job in black acrylic paint, eyes and symbol work layered/textured also in acrylics. The design itself I came up with, the colors are Twi’s persona design.
Pokeball because he’s a Pokemon fan, paw prints for his furdom, music notes for his love for music, swirls for his swiftness and love for running~

Mane and tail re-rooted in RetrodollUS’s saran white hair in the color Frostbite, Restoredoll’s Katsilk red hair in the color ruby, and Dollyhair’s nylon My Little Pony hair in the color Pomme ‘de amor.
Styled with a hair dryer to flatten the untamed hair and make it hold shape.

To finish, rhinestone embellishments on the stars and Pokeball to tie the design together~

Next up, a Folf fursona design to go with the Pokemon persona.

Description:
Pony base is a regular-sized Twilight Sparkle. Full body repaint job in off-white acrylics, eyes layered and textured in my anime-fusion style with a capture of Twilight’s actual likeness (referenced a real photo of him).
Feet are painted in a “black glove†style to match the “white gloves†of the larger ponysona custom.

Mane re-rooted in dollyhair’s nylon mlp hair in the color Black Magick, tail is RetrodollUS’s saran Frost Bite.
Mane styled via hair dryer. Permanently hardened/styled in my hair gel method.

Twi’s fursona has tentacles from time to time so I made red tentacles coming out of the tail. Made from floral wire with leather strips wrapped around, glued onto the wire then coated in a layer of Mod Podge to secure them, then to finish, painted in various pigments of red acrylics and the white suction cups are pearl rhinestones.

Lastly, a Walking Dead commission of the character Daryl, commissioned by ZombieMeetsPony.

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

Full body repaint job in flesh tone acrylics, eyes painted/textured in realism textures.

Mane and tail re-rooted in Katsilk hair in the color black orchid and Dollyhair’s nylon mlp hair in the color roasted almond. Flattened via hair dryer and permanently styled/hardened in my hair gel method.

Added plugs around the mouth of the pony to add natural colored mohair for a rugged beard and moustache.

Outfit is entirely hand-crafted. Shoes are leather, pants are a thin boot leather. Next outfit layer I did is the thin blue material, then beige vest.

Faux black vinyl material used for the black vest, acrylic paint detailing for the wings on the back, did strips of thick black leather with holes punched in via leather puncher, then laced some thick black leather thread through the holds. Lined and detailed with black hemp cording. Holster on one side of the oufit is black and brown leather with acrylic and rhinestone details.

Crossbow is a sheer experiment. Used thick black leather for the main handle, various metal bits, black hemp cording, rhinestones, green feathers then painted the whole thing black then sealed it with mod podge.

Thanks for looking~
 
Excellent! Those took so much work!
 
As always, your work is absolutely breathtaking! I love everything you do. I especially am loving Daryl. My sisters and I all have a hankering for that surly redneck. LOL!
 
These are gorgeous. I adore the skull kid especially!
