Workshop days

[Maplemeadow]

So it's been a busy day in the workshop but I just had to share these 2 success stories

1st, Posey is a bait I got from @Tak in exchange for her custom OC but after cleaning her up, she only had a teeny tiny body flaw and pale eyelashes. And a haircut. But I happened to have Pussycat nylon so she's been rehaired in the original fading pink and I think I can fix her smunched leg with the hot water bath trick.

2nd is a take on my favorite smashup of gens. I am not a huge fan of orange (used Peaches n Cream, and old Sundance and Heart Throb tails) but if you can imagine her hair more orange-y, you can probably guess which Pony I'm making ATM. Cutie mark to be painted tomorrow if poss. MORE pics to be posted soon!

You've maybe seen this one before...
The black dye faded over 2 years to be really splotchy since the Surprise bait was a deflocked SS and I think the glue blocked some of the dye uptake. ANYWAY, I still loved her hair but since she's getting grimier by the hour, I just leaned into it. FULL paint job/do-over. She's giving me Corpse Bride vibes and I have pony wear (dress and veil) that will complete her look. Just gotta let her dry...
