Custom plushie - Prototype Diamond Rose OC

[Skeen]

I am SO PROUD of myself, you guys.

When Rhini first PMed me about this pony, my jaw dropped. I had no idea how I could possibly pull it off!

Here's the reference pics:

I had to come up with a way to make those wings and that hair. I thought about it for DAYS, I worked on it, I edited pictures, I tried and discarded like 6 kinds of gold embroidery thread, I made custom embroidery files, and I finally came up with this:

And the wings, which I will never do again, lol!

Enjoy her, Rhini! You will be forever picking fluff off her white fur.

Those wings are really beautiful! They must have been a real booger to do. Bravo!

Woah! She turned out awesome! I love her eyes and hair!

LOL You have no idea.

I am not a graphic artist. But, I wanted to do those wings exactly. Rhini had already said not to worry about the gradient or the interior designs, just gold over teal. So, I cropped the reference pic, then using Paint (because I am not a graphic artist!) I carefully drew over the design in a solid color until I had only the outline of the gold edging, edited it pixel by pixel until my machine could read it, and then tried a bunch of different metallic threads until I found one that didn't shred while pulling through the needle. It. Took. Weeks.

I'm so proud of you too!! This plush and the design is beautiful and adorable. I love love love those wings, they're sooo gorgeous, too. :shockpony: I can't imagine how much work and thought that must have taken. Maybe it's a sign as to why I don't make plushes XD Lovely job though!
