Description
*****PLEASE NOTE: THESE PONIES ARE NOT FOR SALE*****Also, I am not a factory. Each pony takes at least 6 hours worth of work, often times more. I have many commissions, as well as a full time job. I'm sorry, I wish I could make one for everyone, but I don't have vampire superpowers. If someone can talk Jasper into biting me and helping me out.....
******* ******** ********
Months ago when the release date for the 4th and final book in the Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer was announced, I started the planning work on these girls.
The Twilight saga is a series of fictional books about vampire love, that I for one, can't get enough of <3
I based the ponies on the book covers, sculpting each of the main symbols to represent each book (i had to wait until the 4th book cover was released to finalize all this) Twilight's apple, New Moon's flower, Eclipse's broken ribbon, and Breaking Dawn's queen chess piece. But I wanted each pony to include all of the books as well. so the other representations were painted.
(all done in acrylic)
Their golden eyes are representative of our favorite 'vegetarian' family
The symbol on the NDS I added as a last minute whim. Its the Cullen family crest created for the upcoming movie version of the first book Twilight! (Dec 12!)
The hair is 8 colors from dollyhair, each chosen to represent the 8 main vampire/human characters (if you want to think of the black as the wolfs/Jacob...fine)
'black magic' for Alice, 'gingerbread' for Jasper, ' pumpkin pie' for Edward, 'espresso' for Bella, 'chocolate fudge' for Emmett, 'sunlight' for Rosalie, 'goldilocks' for Carlisle, and 'butterscotch' for Esme.
they each have their own 'bella bracelet' *sparkle*
I met my goal and had these girls done for the release of the book (August 2) and they went to the midnight release part with me

I have removed comments, thanks so much for all the love! I'm so glad everyone likes these ponies.
Please remember they are not for sale.
Thanks! <3
