Anonymous~ 588 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Wow, that's quite good. Now it only needs a coat of paint and glazing, if you're going to do it of course. (it would look even better IMO) As a fellow sculptor I approve this statue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm currently trying to get rid of the color from places it's not supposed to be on. And I also managed to tear both wings apart. But whatever. -_- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a major sculptor, it's a hobby that I have. What I mean to say is that I'm not THAT good as you (supposedly) think. And have fun painting. I always hate the painting part.

thegoodhen 697 Posted August 22, 2012 Author Share Posted August 22, 2012 (edited) Amm... I'm not a major sculptor, it's a hobby that I have. What I mean to say is that I'm not THAT good as you (supposedly) think. And have fun painting. I always hate the painting part. When you said: "Have fun painting" I was just super angry because there were colors all over the place, all over my pony, EVERYWHERE! And because I was frustrated, I decided to forget about it by checking mlpforums. And 1st thing I saw was "Have fun painting " ARBHAPOBIFOIBOAIBFIOxD No, but really, thanks! I would love to see your work! Anyway, done, will update soon! If you're confident with your painting skills, you should definitely paint it! I think Rainbow Dash looks best when you can see why she's called that. I'd go with painting it. Dash is the most colourful pony afterall, so leaving her uncolored would almost seem wrong. I'm sure your sis will be overjoyed with such a great gift either way. Oh my gosh~ it's so cute! If you paint it, I'd definitely would like to see the outcome of that, good job. n w n I think just painting the hair and tail would make it look cooler than painting the rest of it, but hey it is your project i definatly think paint it but only if you think you can because this is really good!!! much better than anything i could ever make That's really sweet ^-^ I'm really interested to see it when it's all colored (if that is what you're going to do). Great job so far Wow, that’s some great work you did right there and a good gift idea, I agree with DJ Scratch if you just painted her mane and tail she would look so cool, about 20% cooler to be exact. XD PAINT IT! It'll look DASHing (HARARHAHARA) with some colours :3 I think it's really cool that you're doing this for your sister, or good friend for that matter. You sir, deserve a brohoof /)*( I can't wait to see it finished (in whichever style you chose to use) and i live in britain so i get bored of it XD Amm... I'm not a major sculptor, it's a hobby that I have. What I mean to say is that I'm not THAT good as you (supposedly) think. And have fun painting. I always hate the painting part. Okay, painted it. It was hard and also my 1st time... So bare with me. I can't help it, but it looks SOOOOO much better irl and I'm not saying that just as an excuse. Edit: btw in case it isn't clear, you can see the updated pictures in the 1st post. Edited August 23, 2012 by thegoodhen 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to see when it is finised! I bet your Sis is gonna it! But... But... I was told by some ponies here it would be best to let it be how it is... I was thinking I'll just add eyes and fine polish it and that's it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nouth 495 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Now I'm envious... Damn good job man! A perfect gift indeed. I'm unsure though whatever would it be better to leave it as it is or to paint it... Since the mane and tail are the most symbolic parts of her body, it seems enough as it is now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PegasisterTaco 318 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Ooh. That's a really nice statue you got there. I really like how you made the mane. You should paint it if you feel like it. It'll look even better too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scootabloom 3,459 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Lol, this looks more awesome the more times I see it. Good job on them, I actually really want one now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegoodhen 697 Posted August 31, 2012 Author Share Posted August 31, 2012 Lol, this looks more awesome the more times I see it. Good job on them, I actually really want one now. I decided to give it to her for Christmas actually. She is leaving country and we don't think it would survive the flight O_o. (Well, she is afraid, I trust my creations xD) Well, I'll make other sclupts for her... Maybe the whole mane 6! Speaking about wanting one... How much would you be willing to pay? I'm not saying I'll be making them and selling them, but I would still like to know the raw estimate of value of my work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Whales 311 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Ah, I see you did end up painting only her mane, I think it turned out pretty great, the tail makes it look much better than before as well. If my sibling gave that to me I would love it. I think it is a really good gift idea with thought behind it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegoodhen 697 Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 I got like... Super used to my dashie statue, so I ended up making a different one night before I met my sis... Here she is! She is about 20% bigger (well, actually even more) and I really like her mane tail. It's a shame her right wing fell down when I was baking her. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeatrixBow 119 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 This is great. I would LOVE to get a gift like this, if only my actual blood sis would make me one. -_- Oh yeah, she has no talent. This is really cool, and yoou should paint the body blue, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiles 77 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Wow that is adorable, she is pretty damn lucky to have someone like who you is prepared to go to all that effort for her, I wish I had people making pony statues for me! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nouth 495 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Your sis's truthly a lucky person And so am I... Although I did like the snoutie a little bit more on the old one (bit more standing out imo), you're right about the tail, and well, I think that it's one awesome piece of work you have there 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
