Thank you! I actually have a few unicorn foal resins I’ve been painting up lately on my page in the Non-windstone Art threads. Other than that I haven’t really had a chance to get more into more Artist resins since most are so expensive lol.

Not currently open for PYO commissions.Hippocampus update! Soooooo….my original plan I had my Hipp didn’t work out how I envisioned, the color combo just wouldn’t work out for me. So now I’m at a bit of a loss at what I want to do color wise lol. So I think I may be open to making him a commission piece if anyone is interested! I’ll make a Ad in the Classifieds later!
I’ve already painted the rock base, but I could change it if needed. My Hipp came with light blue eyes and crystals for the base.
Here she is so far:

Thanks! Honestly tho, the base practically does all the work for you, all the textures and details are amazing!

That is exactly what I thought when I was painting mine. :bigsmile:
Here’s the Hipp as of right now, she’s still in her ugly stage but she’s getting a lot better, she’s fighting me less lol.

Not currently open for PYO commissions.Thank you both! For some reason, even though it’s a very simple color scheme it’s been pretty difficult to get it just right, she just keeps trying to go in a different direction!

Not currently open for PYO commissions.I agree, it’s looks really pretty so far. I finally ordered my first pyo hippocampus with my young unicorn so I am going to try painting one soon too. I am excited!
Looking for rainbow or pink & teal grab bags!
So here’s where we’re at now, she is SO close to being done and it’s driving me crazy! The main problem is I don’t know how to implement the spots on her tail to match the other fins, each time I’ve tried it doesn’t look right. But I feel like if I don’t have spots on the tail it won’t look as cohesive, ugh, it’s driving me nuts, I just need to finish the tail and the base and I can call it finished! Anyone got ideas?

Not currently open for PYO commissions.I would say do the spots between the ribbing of the tail fin, along the blue lining like you’ve done on the other body fins, but use larger dots on the outside edges of the fin and gradually going smaller as you move toward the joint between the lobes of the fin.
Edit: Conversely, you could also put the spots along the top of the fin instead of along the blue lining. Or just carefully use the blue to highlight the natural dips already present on the tail fin so that you’d have rows of the dots going up from the end of the fin.

Yeah, I may give that another try. I also really like the blue filling in the natural gaps/holes up along the tail but sadly the sculpt only has the pronounced dips on two rows of each fin, which I’ve already filled in. Perhaps I’ll try to replicate that in the other ridges?

Not currently open for PYO commissions.Personally, I love the way the tail fin looks just as it is! 🙂 I just adore her! Great work, my dear! <3
Aw thank you! I’ve redone this tail fin several times now and I’m nearly at the point of just leaving it be, it wouldn’t be so annoying if I didn’t have to repaint the ombre effect every time. I’m going to experiment one more time and if it doesn’t work out I’ll leave it as is/plain. And then I can move back onto the base and finish her up!
Which will then bring me to the question of, glossy or matte, oh the indecision!
