Description

So this is the pair of plushies I've been hinting at for the last while :3 I'm quite happy with how they turned out! I was thinking of trying some cotter pin joints in their necks so that they have a greater range of expression and are more posable together, but I haven't been able to get any locally. Maybe once I find some I'll update these plushes and see how that works. Opinions? Should I joint their necks? Anyway!


I wanted to test my laying pattern a couple of times more so that people could get a better look at it and decide if they like it. I love working with this pattern - it's probably my favorite now! I've also wanted to make Twilight and Flash together for a while now, partly because there are very few Flash Sentry plushes and partly because I'm a shameless fangirl.


They're made so that they can lie face to face with hooves entwined, or side by side snuggling with Flash's wing over Twi's back. I had a lot of fun doing Flash's half-closed wings, and I really like how they came out. I couldn't find two blues close enough for Flash's hair, so I used two different dye lots of the same color that are slightly different. I think I may be addicted to blushing ponies now.

This is too cute!  I love how his wing can rest on her back!  It's such a nice touch!

I think it'd be cute to have their heads jointed if you can manage to find what you need for it! =3

Thank you!


Yeah, I think having a range of movement for their heads would add a lot to the pair...

I can't really describe too well via comment, but having the ability to tilt their heads slightly so their foreheads could cuddle would make for an adorable picture!

fireflytwinkletoes In reply to LeafFox [2013-12-12 21:37:45 +0000 UTC]

It would! Unfortunately the joints would only allow side-to-side movement, not up-and-down...

It would still be cute side to side!

*update* After settling for a few weeks, their necks are supple enough that their foreheads can be made to rest against each other. Thanks for the suggestion, it's adorable.

Damn. Never seen half-closed wings on plushies. Looks super neat! I really like your new pattern. Only think I'd might change is making the eyes a teeeny tiny bit smaller (or the head bigger).


Damn. Maybe I'm getting a second Firefly plushie at some point.

fireflytwinkletoes In reply to PheiPlushies [2013-12-12 20:40:20 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I made Twilight's eyes in particular a little bigger than usual because I wanted them to be seen fairly well from all angles

I don't particularly care about other peoples' headcanons - they can keep 'em in their heads Meanwhile, I'll ship something that's relatively show canon

Tearahk In reply to fireflytwinkletoes [2013-12-12 20:55:28 +0000 UTC]

I would ship it, if they fleshed out Flash's character more. He seemed rather 2D in the Equestria Girls movie.

fireflytwinkletoes In reply to Tearahk [2013-12-12 20:56:09 +0000 UTC]

That's true - every character introduce in EQG was pretty flat since the movie was so short.

Tearahk In reply to fireflytwinkletoes [2013-12-12 20:59:15 +0000 UTC]

Yeah. And it was understandable. They were there for plot and nothing else, really. But still, if they flesh out his character more in this or another season, I'd be okay with it. ^_^

fireflytwinkletoes In reply to Tearahk [2013-12-12 21:00:33 +0000 UTC]

Pretty much. I was under the impression that none of the characters introduced in EQG were going to be part of the show...but maybe I was misinformed.

Even though I don't like the pairing or stallion at all, I will say the take on the characters is great as always .

In such an interpretive medium such as a television special, people are definitely allowed to have their own interpretations and opinions on them, much like a piece of art. 


I think its great people are able to get something enjoyable out of the character or pairing or whatever; personally, I couldn't find anything I liked about it .
