Steampunk Octavia

My Little Pony Friendship is Magic character Octavia designed as a generation 1 custom pony in steampunk fashion.

~~~For sale $125.00~~~

Pony base is a generation 1 snuzzle, but from the 2007 anniversary mold.
Original body color kept, removed the pink heart cutie marks with Acetone.
Eyes hand-painted in acrylic paints in various textures in my realism/fusion style.
Octavia’s cutie mark also painted in acrylic paint and sealed.

Mane and tail are re-rooted in dollyhair’s nylon mlp hair in the colors hematite and black magick with RetrodollUS’s monofiber coal black hair. Bangs are glued down into place permanently after hardened with my hair gel method.
Accessories are antique broaches and costume jewelry I Gorilla glued in place with 3 strands of beads strung on wires, and a few pearl rhinestones to finish.

Outfit- started off the boots. Stitched babypink cobweb and bias tape to mauve cotton material with beige suede over the fronts, real pale beige leather for the soles and a Persian patterned fabric on the backs of the boots that match the corset. Pleated silver ruffles sewn at the tops.
Finished with pale blue ribbon and tiny metallic rhinestones.

Corset- main bodice is the Persian patterned fabric, crushed beige velvet material pleated with ruffles lining the bottom. Stitched some white lace on the sides. 
Cut a slit in the middle, did a pale gray cross-stitch for detailing and added black oval rhinstones.
Used a darker mauve cotton material for the under-belly strap of the corset, hand-stitched strips of the beige suede and glued a paler mauve hemp cord over top. Lined with black vinyl lace, and gold chain.

Collar- Used a black jean material that has gray pin-stripes on it, and stitched the vinyl black lace along the edge. Then white bias tape with pink bias tape tied in a bow stitched to the front. 
Pleated a pale baby pink ruffle across the chest, lined it with tan bias tape. Detailed it with crystal, pearl and metallic rhinestones. Two strips of beads strung on wire are fastened on both sides of the corset. 

Bass instrument- Two layers of authentic beige leather. Charcoal black acrylic paint detail on the front of it, handle is two strips of black patent vinyl the top of it is the same leather rolled up then fastened to the black handle. Knobs are toothpicks painted black with pieces of black leather.
Strings are floral wire with a rectangle of off-white of leather glued underneath, and a T-shaped piece of thin black leather over top. Silver metal cone-shaped bead piece fastened at the bottom. Bow is a stiff thin brown leather, two layers- with a strip of thick beige elastic sandwiched in-between.
