Description
This is my second MLP custom. I made this for my friend's birthday and she loves Fatal Frame. This is based off the second one which has a red butterfly theme. I don't really know too much more about the game.I bought me some new, smaller brushes to help with painting, but I still have a lot to learn. My hand is SO unsteady, but I'm trying to get better at it.
Fatal Fly has 5 hand painted butterflies on her body, each with a different design. I repainted her eyes completely and she has a red butterfly in each pupil. The big butterfly on her flank was built from scratch out of random craft store supplies.
On her back is a lantern that actually glows in the dark with more glow in the dark butterflies around it. Alas, my camera is a piece of crap and cannot capture that. My friend said she might be able to with her camera. If she can get a picture, I'll update this deviation with it.
Her hair was rerooted with dollyhair black magic and cherry pie. Her base body was a baity G3 Bowtie.

Just as the first one you showed, this one is just gorgeous. Very pretty, and I love the butterfly on her, as well as the designs on her legs and the lantern on her flank. Very creative. ^^

Digging the curls in her hair! Her paint job and colour scheme is pretty awesome, and the butterfly pin is a neat touch

Thanks. I wanted to go a bit more fancy with this one.

I love this one. I thought for sure the butterfly you bought as one piece from a craft store. I am impressed that you actually made it. The curly hair is fun and the paint job is nice as well. I've never painted much, but I think it's safe to say my hand is really unsteady too...

I'm impressed with myself as well! Even though I had planned a big, red butterfly, I had no idea how I was going to do it. I was kind of just hoping if I hung around the craft store long enough I would find something exactly like I needed and I could just buy it and glue it on. But no dice so I had to get creative. I will not lie, I thought I was a freaking genius when it all came together.
And I thought my hand would be pretty steady. But it is not, not when you're trying to paint an itty bitty picture on a tiny piece of curved plastic. It just does not work!

A lot of times what you make yourself is better (and cheaper) than any pre-made thing you find. I would say that was definitely the case here!

People are selling these things for $40 plus for just new hair and a new symbol. I would say in all this pony cost me around... maybe $12-15 to make. So not too bad.

I bet you did. How much do you charge for a custom MLP, I'm not looking for one (yet) I was just wondering.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
At the moment, I'm not comfortable enough in my skills to charge someone money for a pony. I think I need to do a few more before I'm willing to take payment. Feel free to ask me about it later after I've done a few more ponies and they don't suck lol

You can be sure I will once you get comfortable in doing them, let me know when you are more comfortable in doing custom ponies. I have an idea in mind but I don't know if it's doable, it's just something that has been running around in my mind for a few months.

It might still be a while. I am way behind on birthday ponies for my friends. One's birthday is already gone and I have started and the other one's is coming up this week and I haven't planned hers. @.@
