Luna painting

So, today I finally finished sculpting for Rarity, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy. Seriously, Super Sculpey is clearly the best clay from what I've already tried! It sculpts nicely, is easy to reshape and... Well, from the moment I took first piece in to my hands and rolled it around to get the feel, I was in love. I'm never going back to Cernit, ever.
Now, to the actual ponies! I ended up having some serious trouble painting them. I have no idea why, but painting my customs is really much harder to me than the sculpting part. Especially thin, clean lines are hard. I have some ideas but I still need to buy supplies first.

Luna in the process of being painted, workig on her shoes in this one. Also, Celestias front legs and part of her mane xD
It really is a pain to find the exact right colors when mixing acrylics since I only have the basic colors and a few additional colors.







Luna with /mostly) finished painting. Too bad that my sealant ran dry. I really love how her mane and tail came out. And I think the colors are mostly right.










Meet my poor, cluttered scanner. And the ponies on it. On the left you'll see a bride pony I've had since I was a teensy kid, next to her Fluttershy in Gala dress, then Twilight. Under Twilight you can see beheaded Rarity and next to her Rainbow Dash in her Wedding dress, There's also Angel Bunny. And on the right top corner you can see the legs and tail of a project I won't yet reveal >8)





And finally, have an additional goode: Luna painting! This is not the best possible photo, but anyway.

All comments, critiques and tips are encouraged and loved!

Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Fluttershy customs!

In addition to Luna and Celestia, I started three other ponies today. Rainbow Dash in Canterlot Wedding dress, Fluttershy and Rarity as seen showing off in Boast Busters.
First off, Rainbow Dash.
I really don't like this dress so much, but since I made a very stupid mistake while taking her head off, I had to choose something that covers her neck. I'm also having some serious trouble wit her trail, but I do like how the cloud trimming looks.













Then we have Rarity. I really wanted to make this outfit from Boast Busters (you may see it on the screen behind her), and especially her mane. It was hard one to do too, but I'm starting to like this one.













Last we have poor, be-headed Fluttershy. I was concentrating on her tail, so there's really nothing to see for the head yet.

How a blog starts

So I finally decided to keep my own pony centered blog.
For now, this blog will be called Pony Creative. The centering will be my pony works, such as customs, traditional art and anything else I happen to make. I might also post some off-pony stuff occasionally.

So, as starters, let me show you this darling little Luna in progress! Isn't she a darling?
All left to do for me is to paint her. I'm just a bit afraid to do that... Oh well.
I also have a Celestia in progress, but no pics of her yet.
There's also four bases for me to work on, Just not yet sure what to make of them.

Well, this is a short one, but I hope you do enjoy it!
