Behold! The lovely Pretty Pumpkin Masterpost - for real this time!
I always like to do a post-custom discussion, because I figure that people enjoy seeing my process, and I of course love talking about my ponies!
Pretty Pumpkin was a pony design I came up with, a bit on the spur of the moment, for the coloring contest in 2020. (The lineart is by Shaiyeh on the MLPArena!) The pony was shown with pumpkins flying around her, and so I added those to her symbol! She won first place in her division, and I fell in love with her design. Purple is my favorite color after all!
This year, as usual, I left things a bit to the last minute, but I knew at the start of October that I wanted to make a Halloween pony! So I made my first foray into dip-dying nylon hair. I didn’t set up my boil pot of dye like I do for ponies, because I’ve heard that you can dye hair much more easily than pony plastic. But after my first black dye came out brown, I decided it needed to be hotter, so I boiled some water in the microwave, which did the trick. It’s not perfect (you can see her hair is a bit brown IRL), but I’m still very proud of it! I got 99% of the colors I wanted, and for a first try, that’s not bad!
I think the most fucked up thing about the Magnus Archives is I’ve listened to the whole show and I think I’d still probably work there
It pays more than enough for you to have your OWN apartment in London, you CANT be fired, AND the work seems interesting??? That’s a way better deal than most places I’ve been
