Kissy’s Rainbow Playhouse on VHS

Fat Horse No. 5

It’s the year of the horse and I’ve always been a horse girl at heart, so I’m finally taking advantage of the excuse to fill the world with fat little horses! These felted friends are about the size (and shape!) of an apple, and if you happen to have any apples to share I’m sure they’d help you out! This one is based on a G1 My Little Pony who has never appeared in any version of the show and has a silly name, because I’m the most annoying kind of MLP fan

Hand sculpted and casted resin statue of Discord reimagined as a G1 My Little Pony: Pony Friends toy.

I love the G1 toys and Pony friends are so cute, when I got into G4 I thought it would be fun to redesign Discord as if he'd been in G1.

He was very tricky to design, as G1 never had a character this complex in it's toy line, but if I took away too much, he'd stop feeling like Discord and more like an original character I'd made up. Which to be fair, happens a lot in toy reboots, look at the difference between G1 and G3 Apple Jack for example, but I wanted to toe the line, not cross it.

Deciding on colors alone took me ages. Brown was not a color G1 used much, if at all, but Discord's main color IS brown, and he didn't look like himself without those muted tones. I did want to simplify his color scheme though, as G1 ponies usually only used a few colors in their paint jobs. The more colorful ponies got their color from the use of different hair colors, not in the paint job itself. A paint job like this would have been expensive to manufacture in the 80's as it is.

I finally settled on this look, as least for this casting. I might make more in the future and play around with different colors.
