Quantum WeddingLight is both a particle and a wave. This should blow my mind, yet the foundations of my existence remain unblown. This can mean one of two things: Either I intuitively grasp the paradoxes of quantum physics that have eluded our greatest scientists for decades, or I'm not thinking about it hard enough. There isn't time to resolve this dilemma. I have to put away my books of superstrings and comb my hair for the wedding.

Beth will marry Peter in the park in less than half an hour, so my mother tells me to hurry up and find my shoes. So much for studying physics. I grope around under the bed until my fingers close on heels worn down with memor

The wind whirls a frenzy at the slice of the rider’s cloak
Flaring behind him, crisply, briskly, the gloss
Of a hard night’s ride in his eyes, intent on the end
Of the journey down stone roads and earthen paths. Starlights sparkle
In his wake, stirred by the fury, the motion, that human dye—
Passion—the blood-color denied their brilliance. They quake at his passage.

The scratching pen halts in the monk’s hand, his passage
Incomplete. The cold arrests him. The stars are cloaked
In inky black—a night unwatched—the ink dyes
His fingers guilty, like bloodstains, lacking their fresh gl

Twilight Sparkle Custom Ponyby ~YFish

Artisan Crafts / Dolls, Plushies & Custom Toys / Customized Toys

Hey there, Twiggy Sparks! Four down, two to go. Base is a G4 Twilight Sparkle. Mane, tail, and tiara are Stonex self-hardening clay, and she's painted with acrylics, including a full-body repaint.

Twilight Sparkle is a less ambitious mod than some of my others, but I plan to make up for it with Fluttershy (coming up next) and especially with what I've got planned for Rarity. This is actually my second attempt at modding Twiggy Sparks; my first one didn't go so well. I think Twilight has the coolest art design out of the main six ponies, and it took me a couple tries to get her looking like her awesome self. Mainly, the coat color of the toy is a brighter, more magenta-purple than the dusky purple she is on the show. So I did my first full-body repaint! Aaaaaand... she came out looking flat, gray, and kind of undead. Not ideal.

I wanted to depict her in her "Avatar State," so I painted her eyes solid white and put lightning bolts running up her legs. She looked even MORE dull, flat and undead after I did that, and now she was covered in weird-looking lightning. On top of that, I couldn't get the color of her hair right--Twilight's coloring is surprisingly subtle. I didn't realize until the second time around that her mane is actually a very dark blue, not purple. Anyway, I scrapped the first pony and started over.

This time, instead of painting her eyes white, I painted irises, pupils, and specular highlights like normal pony eyes, then covered them with purple interference paint (transparent coat of sparkly shinyness) to imply her magical-ness. It looked so good that I covered her entirely in purple interference paint. Now, she looks either magical, or like a disco-robot. Either way, better than she looked as the original toy.

Coming up next: Fluttershy's dream of being a tree is granted.

Would plum (though I do not know if the color is outside of Sweden?) works for the man?

A deep plum purple could work very well. Really, this custom came out poorly, and I consider my God Tier Twilight to be the "real" Twilight in my collection.

God Tier Twilight is fantastic.
