  • In this MLP custom tutorial, we'll make Octavia Melody using a brushable pony figure as the base, sculpt her mane, tail and bow with clay, and then paint them with acrylics.

    My goal is not only to turn toys into artwork, but also make them last "nearly" forever. So, I've been experimenting over the years with many different supplies & brands and I'm now confident to share with you my favorites. Keep in mind, some tools are very sharp and are not suitable for kids.
    Essential supplies I use for every custom:
    1) G4 MLP Pony Figures - ebay.us/vmPLO4
    Retail stores no longer sell previous generation of brushable ponies, but you can find them in customizable condition on eBay. Give them a good scrub with warm soapy water and let them fully dry before you start customizing.
    2) Oven-Bake Clay - bit.ly/STclay1
    My favorite clay to use especially to sculpt parts, such as the mane and tail, that I can take off the pony to bake. It's easy to work with and doesn't cure until baked.
    3) Self-Hardening Clay - bit.ly/STclay2
    I use epoxy clay to sculpt parts, such as clothing and accessories, that I can't take off the figures to bake. Easy to shape & texture, blends well onto figures & doesn't shrink. Must wear nitrile gloves and work in well-ventilated area when combining parts A and B.
    4) Nitrile Gloves - bit.ly/STgloves
    Protect your hands from chemicals when mixing epoxy. Poly, latex, and vinyl gloves are not chemical resistant.
    5) Clay Roller - bit.ly/STroller
    Use to condition clay and create smooth sheets and blocks.
    6) Clay Blades - bit.ly/STblades
    Long 6.5" to 7.5" blades make perfectly straight or curved edges in sheets and blocks of clay. Extremely sharp so use with caution!
    7) Craft Knife - bit.ly/STknife
    One-inch long blade for making precise, clean cuts in clay. Extremely sharp so use with caution!
    8) Sculpting Tool - bit.ly/STsculpt
    My favorite tool because it can do so much--shape, blend, smooth, texture, trace, and cut.
    9) Acrylic Paint - bit.ly/STpaint
    Made with high-quality pigments and has a beautiful, matte finish. There are over 70 colors available, but you can mix nearly all the colors you'll need with less than 10 colors. See the course I recommend below to learn the secrets to color mixing.
    10) Acrylic Medium - bit.ly/STmed
    Most acrylic paints are thick and will leave brushstrokes if not thinned down. However, thinning down with water greatly reduces the paint's pigment load and its ability to stick to surfaces. Mix several drops of this medium into your acrylics to get a smooth coverage without affecting the paint's quality.
    11) Paintbrushes - bit.ly/STbrushset
    Choose flats for wide areas, and rounds for tight areas and fine lines.
    12) Paint Palette - bit.ly/STpalette
    Reusable 10-well palette for mixing small amount of paint for immediate use.
    13) Paint Cups - bit.ly/STpaintcups
    For mixing larger amount of paint. Can be stored up to a month without drying out if cups are covered with cling wrap before snapping on lids.
    14) Matte Varnish - bit.ly/STvarnish
    Protect your painted figures from heat, yellowing, and chipping. Mix well, apply very thin layers & allow to fully dry between layers, otherwise your figures will have a frosted finish instead of matte. Can be thinned down with the acrylic medium (#10) on this list.
