Today I painted those areas of her that will be visible under her clothes &#8212; mostly breast and thighs &#8212; to match the existing yellowish-tan coverage on her head and calves. <\/p>\n<p>I also made her a tail with my ponytail pattern. This iteration makes some improvements on <a href=\"http:\/\/modernwizard.dreamwidth.org\/1606083.html\">my first ponytail<\/a> [for Anna]. I stitched this one almost all the way around, instead of using hot glue on the bottom edge. I also eschewed a straight pin as an armature, instead opting for plastic-coated wire. Finally, to ensure that the wire could not be seen in Epona&#8217;s tail, I wrapped it in black embroidery floss to blend in with her fiber tail. Originally I thought that I would just jam it directly into her tail hole, but I created a little mount around her tail hole to extend the tail out a bit from her butt. This will make it fit more easily through her clothes. ^_^<\/p>\n<p>I still need to coat her painted bust a few more times with matte varnish in hope of keeping it from chipping, especially around the neck. Then I need to blend the Aves Apoxie Sculpt on her legs in with the rest of her legs &#8212; not on the upper thighs, since those will be covered by her shorts, but on her lower thighs, just above the knees, which will be visible. Once I sand that transition between added Aves Apoxie Sculpt and existing, I will paint and seal.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.oddpla.net\/blog\/dolls\/epona\/painting\/01.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.oddpla.net\/blog\/dolls\/epona\/painting\/02.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.oddpla.net\/blog\/dolls\/epona\/painting\/03.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: smaller;\">This entry was originally posted at <a href = \"http:\/\/modernwizard.dreamwidth.org\/1607190.html\">http:\/\/modernwizard.dreamwidth.org\/1607190.html<\/a>.
