So happy to finally put up my Daring Do custom. I'm very proud of her. She definitely pushed me as far as customizing goes. I think she was absolutely worth it.
Daring was created from a fashion style Rainbow Dash. Her hair, wings and marks were removed. She was then sculpted with Super Sculpey, and painted with high quality acrylic paints. Finally she was sealed with matte and gloss mod podge. Her hat, the Sapphire stone and book were all created using super sculpey and painted, then sealed. I tried to make her as show accurate as possible.
She was too lonely by herself, so I took on the task of making the Sapphire stone. A whole day later and it was done (accessory.. yeah).
Enjoy the pictures, please comment if you like her. Feel free to post her anywhere you like, just make sure to link back to the original.
Commissions will be open in a month or so if anyone is interested. I'd also love to hear suggestions for more customs. I'm looking at making a shadowbolt Rainbowdash, a Dragonborn Fluttershy and a Detective Pinkie with a miniature polymer clay MMMMM.
My eyes hurt from all the awesome details. I would've loved to make customs myself, for it not that I'm too lazy to try and find Super Sculpey in New Zealand
In the baking process, she got excessive weight on her (she is heavily customed). During the last time she was in the oven, her feet burned and melted due to the weight of her hair/tail/jacket/hat pushing down, so I had to fix them with clay. You can barely notice it in person . I wasn't going to give up on her because of a burn though
It is very common to have issues with them in the oven, especially when they are heavily customised. It adds allot of weight which presses down on the feet, and they can melt quite easily. I cooked her at about 100 - 120 deg C.
cheers
