Colt America, my second pony avenger. Five point stars are pretty hard to paint, let alone sculpt but in the end I'm happy with how the two stars on him turned out. I was originally planning to make the shield removable but I sacked that in the end for two reasons, first it left a big hole in his leg, which would have had to be pretty big to account for extra thickness once both parts were varnished and second, once varnished if the shield was left in for, I'd give it about a week it'd be pretty much stuck in and if you did pull it out, I reckon you'd get varnish and paint stuck to the wrong bits so I figured it was best stuck in as I didn't want him without his shield!

A ponified alien from Attack the Block! I was working on the Viking when I got the idea to make furry bits out of clay by roughing the clay up with a spike, it worked on the Viking's gaiters, so I decided to apply it to the whole body of a pony when I watched Attack the Block and had the idea to ponify one of the aliens! My camera hasn't been especially kind here, the fur is pretty difficult to photograph.. D:

Wow this guy took me ages, the guitar et al was done pretty quick in all fairness, it just took me ages to settle on a colour I liked, as his body colour is extremely difficult to mix up with Tamiya's range.. or at least it was for me anyway.. I'm happy with this colour though it's not exactly his colour, still I'm pleased with the little guitar and the cutie mark guitar too, so it's not all bad! :)

World's Smallest Portal Turret

Had to be done really, I've already started two more cores, which ones should they be? Space Core 100% but the other one..?

Video Tutorial up on YouTube!

So I'm toying with the idea of doing a livestream and thought it would be a good idea to throw a video up on YouTube first, sortof as a sample of what to expect.. basically hours of me ramblind, but hopefully it's useful rambling.

I would be extremely grateful if you'd check this vid out (don't feel obliged to watch the whole thing it's half an hour long) and gimme some feedback, be lovely.

Thanks!

Chestnuts' Custom: The Gimp

The Gimp

Sold

A friend I used to work with commissioned me for a gimp pony and I nearly shat brix, I had wanted to make one as I've seen it done on a few older, larger ponies but not yet on a blindbag and it's the absolute antithesis of My Little Pony, so it had to be done.. he told me he wanted a ball gag and some kind of chains or straps on the chest, so I went with straps and belts around his top half and crotchless leather chaps for the back end. He also comes with a little dill as an accessory, which I'd like to mention was made from a plastic clip that came with a scrubbing brush I got in Sainsbo's and I didn't go to the effort of sculpting a mini cock.

Fillies beware the slender mare.. I'm sorry if your Slendy has tentacles, you can call me Colin for giving her them but my Slendy just doesn't have tentacles. His colour is also, different. It was entirely unintentional, something funny happened with a light grey wash I was using over the white and the brush dispersed these tiny flicks of black.. I kinda like 'em. :D

He has a little facehugger I made since which will go with him if/ when sold. :)

Welcome to a next level of Chestnuts' custom my friends, I went into the detail on this one and can confirm I didn't find God there. The colours are slightly brighter than the usual Xenomorph customs, but at this size, all in black you couldn't see the detail.. she will be for sale but right now I'm being hassled to leave the flat so I'll get a PayPal button up later.

Mic, Toaster & Tomb United!

Once upon a time, I made a post on my thread on UK of Equestria saying I'm make the next pony suggested and someone replied that I should make a grownup version of Scootaloo. This obviously posed the problem of what to do about the cutie mark, at first I thought about covering it with the scooter on some kind of strap but that would have only covered one side and the helmet would have been too big to make hang on the other side, so I decided originally to do the G3.5 cutie mark (were they called that then?) and that was going to be that, anyway in a dramatic twist of fate UK of Equestria's FlakeTwist came along, offered to buy it and suggested his own preference on the cutie mark, which was a wheel from her scooter.. makes a lot more sense on G4 Scoots, the purple butterfly didn't really fit.

DJ Booth for Wooden Toaster

The other day BuckingBrony contacted me via deviantART with a view to buying my Wooden Toaster custom. When I sent him Mic and Tombstone we discussed making a little set of decks for them, as he now owns Mic, Tombstone and Wooden Toaster I figured I'd make him a set of decks and some Marshall amps for them. Now I think about it I reckon Mic, Tomb and Toaster are gonna end up fighting as there's only one set of decks! D:

Last blindbag custom I'm gonna start (I still have grownup Scootaloo, MandoPony and Spooky Applejack to finish) as I'm moving on to G3 brushables for a while and I'm low on baits..

Chinkapin is Chestnuts Pony's little sister, what she lacks of his swag and confidence she more than makes up for in intellect and drive.. :D

Her eye colour is virtually the same colour as her body, I dipped less paint than usual on the brush and smeared it to make it look like the eyes have that lighter tone to them.. tried to anyway!

My favourite custom so far, he has a tiny cut glass crystal in his chest for the Iron Man heart. :D his armour detail was put in place and carved out in several sittings.

Again I don't have a pic of a glitter pony but he was made from one. I use acetone to remove the glitter as it's a lot quicker than nail varnish remover, though more expensive and a lot more harsh on your little ponies..

Kiriban

My deviantART kiriban of a user's OC. Her cutie mark is a stack of three books, she has Celestia style eyes and a little scarf, which I made of Green Stuff. I really like how the hair came out on her, especially since the reference picture was from GeneralZoi's Pony Creator and sort of looked like a mohawk..

She was made from a glitter pony which I used acetone to remove the glitter from..

Figured that sounds much better than simply Derpy Hooves IV. So this is a Derpy on a Rarity mould, personally I think the pose looks more inquisitive and I think that suits Derpy..

Spidermare, Sidermare!

Spins a web, eats some hay,

In the nick of time she'll save the day!

Look out! Here comes the Spider mare!

I'd originally whittled this one down to become a Shadowbolt, however when making my Kiriban; Cupid Strikes I used milliput to smooth over the head completely, pleased with how it turned out, the thought occurred to me that a smoothed over pony could be used to make a Spiderman custom.

Getting into superheroes is a can of worms though, I'm gonna roll out a sorta thing, based on concepts and stuff.. that's intentionally vague, watch this space!

"It wasn't me, it was Blossomforth!" I love Hurricane Fluttershy, not least because of Colonel Thunderlane, I'd been wanting to make him for a lawwng time. His mane hopefully doesn't look as bad as it first did, that was a new method for me over bulking the milliput and just shaving the excess off with my trusty scalpel when it was cured, in the end I think it worked and I'm very pleased with this little custom. :)
