It seems like forever ago that WildWrangler commissioned me to make a custom of her persona, Shyla.
This is the picture I used for reference...
...and here is Shyla.
Now for the details...
Where to start.... She was originally a Coconut Grove so she still smells a little bit like coconut. Her gradients were airbrushed and eyes and symbol hand painted. She's been rehaired with nylon hair from dollyhair in Envy, After Midnight and a Moonlight/Starlight blend.
The beads in her hair have been strung onto clear fishing line and secured from the inside of the custom so they're not going anywhere. Her bracelets are removable and made from wire, seed beads and embroidery thread. Her game controller is sculpted from apoxie sculpt (I'm not the best sculpter but I gave it my best shot) and attached to a black coated wire. Lastly, her earings are genuine swarovski crystals.http://www.mlparena.com/Forums/viewtopic/t=214562.html
