A little project of mine completed...

The Angelic Pretty Toy Parade series is quite possibly my favorite AP print. I love the colors, the design, everything. So, considering I've had way too much time on my hands lately (my hours were cut back at work) I started a little project. I found a little miniature rockinghorse second hand for about 8 dollars, and decided to make it into a replica of the rockinghorse from the AP print! I know, I'm such a dork. But it was fun, and I think it turned out pretty cute considering I'm no professional artist. I thought some of you here on EGL might enjoy seeing it.



First of all, heres the AP print for comparison:

The rockinghorse I found isn't the same shape as the one in the print, but I did my best to try to make it as similar as possible. I cleaned and sanded it before using a spray paint as the base color. The rest is hand painted with regular toll paints. You can't tell from the picture, but after it was all done I coated it with a glitter glaze. It added a nice finishing touch.






Well, thanks for taking a look! And, I swear I'm not crazy, just an avid AP fan. Wait, maybe that is a little crazy. lol! Have a great day everybody!
