Cow Ponyby ~angstmonkey

Traditional Art / Sculpture / Fantasy

Sorry about the crappy effort in laying the photos out, its late.
so this is my gift for a friends 18th. twas originally a G3 sunny daze, was cleaned, had spots painted, eyes redone, mane removed and rehaired (omg please kill me, that was THE worst job) tail and horns made out of fimo and giant flower painted.
the design was originally going to be some grass (cos its a cow) but the feaking design wouldnt come off the ponies bum, so i had to change my idea

chucked a bell on to make it more cowy...
the mane also has a hole in it, hopefully no one will notice

love 1 1

joy 1 1

"what are you doing?"
"we're painting a horse to look like a cow for the movie"
"why don't you just get a cow instead"
"they don't look like cows on camera"
"what do you do when you want a horse?"
"meh....we just tape a bunch of cats together"
best lines ever!

Cute.

I'd like to try customizing a MLP but I have no idea how to start

~angstmonkey Jul 21, 2008

steal your little sisters or go buy one for about 8 bucks from a supermarket, for a great tutorial visit [link]
you can see her other customs there, amazing work!
also woosie on dA has some great ponies if you are looking for inspiration
i started by just asking a friend if she wanted one, she gave me an old pony and i went nuts with it

its just grown from there, ive learnt how to reroot hair, which makes the ponies look heaps better, its great fun!

Hmm... I'm sure I have an old one kicking around somewhere, I swear it popped up a few months back but I have no idea where it is now. I have a vague memory of being able to pull it's head off when I was little... And it was white too I think...

~angstmonkey Jul 21, 2008

if it was white, even better! if its filthy give it a good clean then chuck it in some fabric bleach for goood measure, some ppl say dont do this cos it can create white sports, but its a white pony alreaydy!

I found it, or at least one of the old MLP's I had. But it doesn't seem to be the one with the removable head. It's stuck on really hard D: It's pretty clean too just needs a bit of a scrub up I think.

~angstmonkey Jul 21, 2008

yeah often they are glued on hard in the older ponies, try soaking it in really hot water, it will soften the plastic but wont melt it, then use a really sharp blade to remove the head as carefully as you can, and just keep tugging at it, it wont break, they are very resilent little ponies

the glue will weaken and the head shoudl come off, of course if its a pony with a mechanism inside the head for extending its hair, it'll be a tougher job

i had one like that, i had to glue its head back on once i was done cos i damaged the inside workings too much with the knife, yay glue!
