What I'm up to
May. 6th, 2012 12:35 pmOh my. My quarterly pony purchase just arrived yesterday. Most of them are baits, one or two are restores, and two are for the collection (one of whom needs a new forelock). I've also fixed G4 Sun Runner's hair, as well as some of my birthday acquisitions. Now if only the sun would come back so I can take some (more/better) pictures.
I've recently learned some interesting things about peroxide fading that have given me more than enough cause never to use it. I'm glad to know this now, because one of the restore ponies has a head-body mismatch that would like some fading.
Other projects... I'm working on a G4-style Moondancer plushie to be sold. The color I ordered for her hair is more purplish than I expected, but I got over my disappointment fast. It looks... regal. Royal. It looks good. The project is sort of stalled for now, until I can get to the craft store for some essentials. I'm waffling on how to arrange the moon and stars for her cutie mark so it looks balanced and not cramped. I might have to appliqué over a seam. >.<
If Fabric.com hadn't sent me the wrong color, I'd be putting together a double-size Derpy Hooves, too. But the correct fabric is already on its way, and they're letting me keep the weird tan color that they sent by mistake, so no complaints here. It's better not to work on too many things at once, anyway. That's a perennial problem for me.
