Nominated Works:
|
"Bahama Mamma" by Jinx
|
Each flower was handcrafted and the hair all new. One of my more
vibrant designs I feel that the subtle contrast of green on green stripes
with the brilliant contrast of the bright pink gave the design the feel of
the tropical sea.

"Dawn" by Jinx
|
Dawn is sister of Dusk, and symbollic of the time of day when the sun rises.

"Dusk" by Jinx

Dusk is the sister of Dawn and symbollic of twilight

"HeavenSent" by Jinx
|
Done at the same time as Bridal Majesty, you can see a great deal of similarities. They were done as a comparison after I was not completely satisfied with the colors I had created
in the flowers on Majesty. This one was sculpted in the beiges instead of
the pinks, which I think gave it a more real tone.
|
"Jinx" by Jinx
|
This design is of my namesake, Jinx, a unicorn mischief maker with mismatched eyes
and a broken mirror for a symbol. I tried to convey her odd sense of humor,
her slight overbite and her spritely dancing step that makes her impossible
to catch as she steals my tools and hides my toys and plays tricks with my
memories... Jinx is my alter ego that plays tricks with me that I blame
everything on.
Other Works:
Bridal Majesty

This was one of the early to mid periods in my customs.
Still displaying the characteristic blanket with its mehdi inspired lacework,
it is ond of my early Wedding Cake Carousel series, but the flowers were of
my first experiments with translucent clays and polymers. If you look
closely at the flowers you might even be able to spot the dewdrops.
Carnival

I feel the Carnival was my favorite pony design, so much so
that I redesigned my Pony namesake after her. This in particular is my very
first striped pony, note the two styles clashing, the blanket of the Wedding
Cake line with the stripes of the Fantasy line. This is the only pony of the
stripes and sculpted flowers to date with a blanket. I haven't repeated such
as I feel that the blanket is too distracting, requiring too many flowers to
offset the sudden break and that lace work to edge the blanket would only
make the pony busy and at worst, ugly.
Honeydew

This pony displays the use of even the most common and
perhaps dreadedly ugly ponies, to create a pleasing and rather shy looking
little beauty. This was one of my first experimentations with the stripes
after Carnival received a great deal of good feedback. Unfortunately this
creation was not as well liked, perhaps due to its lack of sculpted flowers,
or perhaps due to its disliked pose. Either way though, I feel that it is
one of my better works as it transformed a completely unwanted pony into a
work of art that I myself find pleasing.
MerryChristmas

This pony was the first of mine actually created on a
'theme'. The Theme itself was around the pony that was remade, the Merry
Treats had lost most of its hair and all of its markings on one side, this I
felt was a fitting remake of a beautiful classic. The stripes returned here,
but with a more crisp edge to their lines due to a use of the airbrush and a
masking technique I borrowed from my modeling friends.
Trick or Treat

This pony was one of my first custom 'requests', done for a
trade with Cookiesama, it went through a great many changes over the course
of its design. This was my first taste of making a pony for someone
specifically rather than making what I felt was good. Several additions were
added to the finished design by request of Cookie, like the green tendrils,
and here she is at her photo shoot before shipping.
Lil'Darling

This pony was designed off of a drawing Allian did for me
to tease me about my favorite nickname for ponies... 'little darlings'.
Designed directly from her drawing, this is my first pony that actually
attempts to replicate a picture drawn by someone else. I feel this is one of
my better efforts as it forced me to expand my designs to new flowers and now
strawberries.
Rainbow's Glory

This pony is my second attempt at using a Bridal Pony Body,
and my very first attempt at smoothly blending a variety of colors over the
course of stripes. Though I have had some dislikes expressed about the mane
and tail being far to bright (And I have to agree, if I did it over, I would
aim for either white or pastel colors), I feel that this pony as a technique
example is one of my best as the smooth transition between the colors over
the span of the pony, gradually fading within the stripes demonstrated my
ability for detail work and my control of the medium.
