Neuschwanstein - 2005

Concept by R.P.
Design & Custom by Aikarin

This custom's namesake is the famous Castle Neuschwanstein in Germany.  She was made from a white base pony.  This pony is NOT FOR SALE.

Neuschwanstein's hair is 100% Kanekalon.  I curled it at first, but it seemed to clutter the design.  So, now it's straight with a slight curl at the ends.  Perfect!

Neuschwanstein's hair is black, red, and gold - the same colors that can be found on the German flag.  Her eyes are deep scarlet with a thin golden swirl. Her lashes were re-painted in black.

Notice that her tail is thicker than the wimpy G3 tails.  I enlarged the tail hole just a touch to fit in this "enhanced" tail. ^_^

This pic is a little blurry, but you can see her hoof mark, which is a German flag in glitter. ^_^

Here is an extreme close-up of her symbol.  The colors are more vivid in real life.  Pardon the glare in the upper right.  The castle was carefully hand painted from scratch...no pre-sketching of any sort!  It's gray with dark silver accents & golden spires.  Notice the background with the snow-capped blue mountains & evergreen trees.
