Description
I did something!
This is my first contribution to the brony community, and it is in a medium I am very comfortable with.
acrylic paints.
I have been working with them forever (like, since age 3), and so when I got an extra Rainbow Dash figurine. Derpy Hooves demanded being made. And it was FUN.
I'm quite happy with how she turned out, but you tell me!
Criticism requested!
I am just glad I was finally able to give back to this wonderful community.

It looks great! Except, I would suggest sanding down the figure a bit more (or sanding it if you didn't already) and the paint job should come out smoother! It doesnt take alot of sanding either. I sanded mine for maybe 10-15 minutes and it turned out great! Have a look: [link] Otherwise it looks awesome!

Thanks for the advice, I'll do just that, never thought of sanding it.

sounds awesome! I want to paint a Celestia myself, but I cant find any celestia toys anywhere, with solid wings anymore. ): I dont even know if they sold those in canada or if they were a target exclusive. :/

I didn't do a lot of custom work on the figurine itself, used the Rainbow Dash one as it fit so well, but a couple of the projects I'm working on (It's a SURPRISE *wink wink*) will be more heavily customised.

The painting took about 4 hours though, the material holds the paint really well or it would have been longer
