Another creation lovingly hand-crafted by me~
Generation 1 My Little Pony Perfume Red Roses crafted as a generation 3 custom pony figure redesigned in a geisha theme.
Body is an engineered pose, head of a unicorn and body of one of the 3-D symbol ponies.
Coated the entire figure in Gesso to give a textured base for acrylics to bond to, then did a full body repaint job in lemon chiffon acrylics. Eyes painted in the colors of the original pony, but in my personal anime/realism-fusion style. Cheeks are dry-brushed for blush. All paint sealed in Artists Varnish.
Cutie mark- is a green floral antique glass bead with a transparent pink bead and a pink pearl bead wired together. Cut pink hemp cord and shaped it for the perfume sprays and glued everything down in Jeweler’s glue.
Mane and tail are re-rooted in soft pink yarn. I unraveled it, each yarn strand provides 4 individual locks for hair. Glued the roots inside of the head, and brushed out the yarn to poof it up.
Outfit- Started with the basic geisha robe. Cut and hand-stitched from a powder blue fabric with a light sheen and a star pattern. Pleated a piece of shimmery brownish pink fabric for one side of the body. Added tassels and beads with a vine of fabric leafs and some braided hemp cord detail.
Layered a rainbow of ribbons for the neck collar, with 2 neutral colors of braided hemp cord to complete the look. Aqua and lavender ribbons tied on the sleeves.
Hair accessories- noticed in a pic of the original Red Roses, there was a cute light aqua hair clip of a bird on a flower. So I got out a gold flower pendant that resembled it, and a craft bird. Bonded them together, with Jeweler’s glue, then painted them light aqua.
Rest of the beads, I carefully planned out and strung on wire, some are mounted onto toothpicks then pinned into the hair. Most beads are antique glass/shell beads from the 1920’s, some are newer plastic beads I found at craft stores.
Tied white fabric leafs in the hair to finish.
