Pole Star – a pole dancing My Little Pony!
So, one of my other loves is customizing My Little Ponies. I got the idea to do a pole dancing custom and used the lovely Aerial Amy's entry on the elbow grip ayesha as my inspiration .
This is Pole Star! She's a real My Little Pony who has been chopped up, reposed, sculpted with Apoxie Sculpt, and repainted. Her base and pole are wooden (I wish her pole was a little thicker, but we can just say she's at an Australian showcase).
She is covered in glitter which is the herpes of craft supplies. There is glitter all over my house and my new puppy. SPARKLE PUPPY.
Anyway–PICTURES! There are more pictures here: http://brambleworks.com/craft/mylittlepony.php?pony=polestar

I plan on making a bunch more–I learned a lot doing her and am gonna apply that to the next ones.

OMG I LOVE my little ponies, and I love the remade ones, too! Seeing what people do with these things is just awesome!
-
Not sure what little ponies are, but the one hanging on the pole is cute as ever!!!! Keep up the fun work.

OMG!! A fellow Pony customizer! So glad to see I am not the only one who has a collection of slightly odd interests 🙂 See ya around either here or at the MLP Arena 🙂

Oh. My. God. I love it!!! I've been meaning to get into this myself! This is amazing!! Well done! 😀

My daughter is OBESSED with MLP. She will school you and keep up with you eventhough she is 7. I think we have every pony possibly made – both old and new.
I love your pole pony! Shes beautiful!
Im actually waiting for a new pony to come out – Lulu Luck. I have to have that pony!

Love it! Are you thinking of making some to sell. Would love one for my writing room.

Wow! I'm so glad everyone likes her so much!
My Little Ponies are a children's toy aimed at girls–they're fancy ponies with pictures on their hips that kind of describe them (for example, the pony Gusty has leaves blowing for her symbol!) There's a decently sized group of people who take the ponies and customize them with new symbols or new hair, or new poses, or anything! This pony looked like this before I took her apart: http://mylittlewiki.org/w/images/thumb/7/73/Love_Wishes.JPG/460px-Love_Wishes.JPG (I think that's the one, lol)
I'd def. be interested in making some to sell, but there's some other projects I have going on right now that I'd need to get done first. If anyone had any suggestions for poses, I'd love to hear them!

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE. I have to tweet this.

Tweet/share/whatever away! I'm @pantherchild on Twitter, http://facebook.com/jbramble on Facebook. I post ponies-in-progress on my FB. Wokring on a FB page for ponies ( http://www.facebook.com/pages/Pole-Star-Ponies/259408940780767 ðŸ˜‰ but there's basicaly nothing on it yet, lol.
I just got some new clay and a big pile of bait ponies, so I may spend some time this weekend working on ponies (there's also a party at my studio, so YAY inspiration!) I need to find some slightly thicker dowels for the pole too. Trip to Lowes is in order!

i was wanting to purchase some MLP for my daughter because I used to play with them when i was a child. problem is, they don't make them like they used to ): where are you able to purchase the older versions at?
-
Cynthia – Ebay. When my daughter goes to my FIL's to stay over, they will go on ebay and bid on MLP toys. Warning though, thier hair is kinda gross if its not taken care of well. I had to throw away one pony b/c her hair was disgusting!

Another good place is mlparena.com . You can find nice ponies for fairly cheap, and people will buy ugly ponies off of you to customize or restore. That's where I got most of my ponies.
The G3 ponies are a pretty good return to form for MLPs and can be pretty cheap. I got six or eight for $5, which is just a great price for toys!
