Christmas Tidings

senashentaLast night I randomly decided to make a mini-pony. =^-^= She's made from a G3 McDonald's Sparkleworks, and is a gift for my Grandma. She's a Christmas tree ornament!
Anyway. Her name is "Christmas Tidings", but, as usual, I feel the need to give her a shortened nickname, so I call her "Tides". I made her with the thought that she would be a companion-piece to Trims (my 2005 Christmas pony). When you see them side-by-side, she almost looks like Trims is her mama. She's very cute, actually. :)
As for info... I guess first of all, I had to take an exacto knife and cut off the moulded plastic tail that all the McD ponies have, since I wanted to give her a real tail. ^^ It actually wasn't as hard as I had imagined, though it certainly wasn't easy. ^_^; It worked alright, but she's a little uneven in the back of her legs, so I'm glad her new tail covers it...
Because she's a set with Trims, I used the same colors for her, but in different ways; Tides is red (though in some of the photos, she looks a bit orange instead... O_o;;), with green eyes and a matching green ornament on her front right hoof. She has a star for her mark (to match Trims), but has three circles running down her leg, instead of other stars. Her mane and tail are Platinum White Katsilk hair from restoredoll.com, and she has a stripe of Taxi Yellow in her mane as well. She has a green bow in her tail (it helps hide some of the uneven-ness, too! X3), and a matching bow in her hair-- I wanted to give her lights in her hair, but I didn't have any that were small enough. :P
Tides also has a little loop of green wire in her back by her shoulders, so that she can be hung from the Christmas tree. :)
PHOTOS!
Isn't she adorable? =3
