Hi!! Finally I was able to finish 2 personal customs I wanted to do!!

First, I want to show you this pony... She was Blossom with a faded body and trimmed hair. I just took off her symbols and eyes and of course, her hair...

The color I chose was a very special blue. I was searching for color ideas trough the net and I found this lovely blue color I've never seen in my whole life!! I just fell in love and I wanted to make my own pony with that awsome color... I have to admit that I was surfing the ponyproject page and as I was watching all the beautiful ponies I wanted to make my own artistic design. Maybe is not comparable with those or with any of the beautiful AND gorgeus ponies in here, but for doing art, you have to take off all your fears of new things... and I just made it... so I consider it artistic :lol: well, here she is:

The hair was a little messy, It's not a soft hair, I took it from a ponytail I bought on one of the beauty shops in here, but it doesn't take any hair modeling style... so I just made some crazy braids and glued it all ^.^ jijijiji I really like the way she turned out!!! Her symbols are Sakuras (cherry flowers) but with a little free style, no sketching... just like that...

She was completely painted with acrylics and sealed!! Here are more images:

And on to the next pony... this was a little desire I had... I saw so many people making her own rapunzel... Aikarin with her beautiful rearing Rapunzel and Angelus with his Rapunzel in blue and Rapunzelvania... so I wanted to make mine, my own special Rapunzel... and here she is:

I really suffered a lot of pain making her!!! I swear!! That plastic is so hard to deal with, I had to use the tool and when I got tired the thread and needle method... and when neither of them could work... I just threw her away!!!! I couldn't add tinsel, I searched a lot for a red long tinsel but I didn't find it... But I believe that she looks gorgeus without it ^^ She comes from a g2 pony I found in a little market, and she was completely repainted. She's one of my prides (even if I hate pink...)...

Here are more images from her:

G2 Rapunzel

I'm so happy that I could finish them ^^ I want to experiment with another colors and techniques, but right now I want to complete my own set of elegant Collector pose ponies ^^ (2 peachies are waiting jejeje)

Thanks so much for stopping by... I really appreciate your comments!!!
 
They're pretty!!! I don't think anyone has done a G2 Rapunzel yet. Very cool! If you do decide to go back and give her tinsel, try Sulky thread. You can get it at Joanns or probably most sewing stores. It comes in tons of colors and works great for tinsel.
 
thanks so much for your advice, sadly, here in Mexico it's a little difficult to find lots of stuff you easily get in USA or UK... I just bought one bag with white tinsel, but when I opened, I found out that it was a short tinsel!!! :( I was so sad!!!!!!!!!!
 
I am not a fan of Rapunzel *or* G2's but combining them - you've made me like her, LOL!! Great job on the customs!! :D

*M*
 
I cannot stand G2s or Rapunzel but I must comment on your creativity. That is a unique custom. Congrats on making her look like she was store bought, I can't even tell she was a custom ^_^

ahh sorry! I didn't realize that. If you really wanted it, I could probably pick some up for you and mail it. I go to Joann's all the time. I can't remember how much they are. Not more than $5 per spool I don't think.
 
Yay! A new interpretation of Rapunzel...I love your version! Everyone should have their own unique Rapunzel that speaks to them. :) You did a good job painting her...I so would NOT do a full body repaint...and such a tiny body too! I wasn't even aware G2's could be rehaired, so good for you for getting through it. Tedious work, but I think the result is fabulous!

btw, I'm a guy. :)
 
OMG Angelus!!! I'm so sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =( *runs to correct all the posts I made on the internet!!!*

Thanks for your beautiful comments! You were the one that inspired me to make my own rapunzel ^^ Yours are truly original and so beautiful!!!!! Thanks so much for sharing them with us ^^

BabySeaShimmer, thanks so much for your help, I believe that I'm happy with her destinseled hair... too much shinning makes me stressed ^^ I have enough with the pink ^^ jijiji

And thanks so much everyone for stopping by! I feel so happy that you like my customs ^^

Very nice ponies! I dont dig the G2 ponies AT ALL-- but you did a GREAT job with her!! I bet she'd sell on the bay...thanks for sharing!

I'm not much for G2 ponies, but your Rapunzel is very unique and interesting. n_n Also, what you did with Blossom is very artistic--I think she resembles a glazed vase.
 
Thanks so much for all your beautiful comments! :oops: I'm so happy that they were welcome here, I must admit that Blossom looks very strange in those colors, but in real life she looks even better! ^^

Rapunzel in a g2 mold is my 5th G2 custom, I'm not in love with g2, I have to admit that I hate how simple they are, but the mold and everything on them are perfect for customs, you can paint anything delicate on them and they look amazing!!!! That's where I started to love them ^^

-I love you my little pony g2!!! I'm gonna cut your head right now!!! WHEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! :lol:
 
WOAH~~!! Those are two sexy customs! Sakura is soo beautiful and elegant! And what do I see?? A G2 Rapunzel?? Oh my goodness, HOTTIE!! She's absolutely gorgeous!
