Shoutout to Little Starglow Ponies for making customizing a lot more easy and less painful as in not having to 'ruin' a perfectly fine pony or spending hours or weeks on end fixing an old retired pony.
That's beautiful, I never thought someone would make brand new generation one ponies! It's kinda smart, there are some around but they can't last forever, and it would be a shame, they are so cute, in a way they are classics
It's such a great idea, isn't it? And they were so kind to gift me the customs to try customising them. Since I last checked they had also added so many other pony poses. Really cool ☺️☺️
@@RetroGeekCrafts You still have those LPS ponies, I think their hooves and saddles could need a new color instead of matching their fur.
Kann man diese neuen Ponys der ersten Generation auch neu kaufen oder haben die bei dir eine Ausnahme gemacht?❤❤❤@@RetroGeekCrafts
Don't sell yourself short. You are an absolutely amazing artist and this custom looks BEAUTIFUL!
@RetroGeekCrafts not just kind but also very honest. your custom and repairs are very well done. you make few noticeable mistakes and even when something doesnt go the way that it should the result is still something really pleasant and lovely to look at ^^
I am not one for usually commenting, however your work is just so special to me 🥺
It's so refreshing to see how much love you put into every single one of your projects, and this Rapunzel was no different. I'm really excited to see you diving into costumization a bit more, and as always, very anxiously anticipating what you'll do next!
Keep up your lovely work!
Thank you so much for your lovely message ☺️❤️ I am finally feeling like I can try customisations with a little more confidence, so I:m looking forward to trying more 🥰
And for the future, they make blank acrylic pens you can fill with custom colors:) and I also love the commentary you’ve added to the videos, love the mini history lessons too! Thanks for all the hard work you do to bring us great videos!
This turned out stunning! I wish someone made blanks of g3 ponies, because its such a good idea
Oh, did you check the site? They have so many shapes! I'm not sure if there are G3s yet but I feel they might stock them soon!
@@RetroGeekCrafts i checked, but I'll definitely keep an eye out in future!
So I might be the weird one, but I like that your tools look used. I like how real and messy your videos are. Not only are your ponies amazing, but you make it approachable.
A pony with crazy long and glittery hair? This is just perfect for you, RetroGeek!
I love how the hair came out- so long and swirly...
Most of the blank ponies seem to be sold out, and I'd feel bad customising an old pony (I'm too sentimental about toys 😅), but I don't mind waiting. You've inspired me to restore/rejuvenate some of my childhood ponies in the meantime. They're all gen 3, which I don't think I've ever seen you work on before, so it'd be cool to see that if you have any gen 3s lying around ❤
This definitely plays to your interests as far as hair amounts.
This is truly a gorgeous custom and you should be proud of yourself! That tensil really adds a lovely flare. Its also cool to know there is actual Rapunzel pony because I have a g3 Rainbow Flash with long hair and I’ve just been calling her Rapunzel pony this whole time😅
Thank you so much for your lovely message ☺️☺️ I love the sound of your G3 Rapunzel!!
She’s so pretty! You did a lovely job. If I saw a picture I’d honestly think she was a real one! Haha 💕
She looks fantastic! I don't know much about G1 pony toy lore, so it was really interesting to hear some about Rapunzel! I was just binging a couple of your videos last night when I woke up and saw this!! Made me so happy ❤
I'm so glad you liked it ☺️☺️ Thank you so much for your lovely message ☺️
oh my gosh, your videos are always such a delight! it's so joyful seeing someone be creative and talk about their process. i've always been a bit too scared to jump into doll or pony customs for fear of being bad at it, but the encouragement in this vid is so... encouraging! thank you for continuing to share your creations, i love watching you work =)
I'm so excited to watch this, i love rapunzel! i just know the outcome will be beautiful, i have a pony server of my own and i recommend your channel to people in it who need restoration help all the time :) thank you for everything retrogeek!
Thank you so much!! I will check that out. I hope you enjoy this video ☺️☺️
I have two G4 Twilight Sparkles that I got in a thrift bag with some others, and I'm still so desperate to think of how I can custom at least one of them even if I redonate the other lol - your work is always incredible. Also, wow has Rapunzel's market value gone up since I last checked lmao
Ohhh that sounds great!! I hope you can decide on an idea. I'm sure it will be awesome ☺️☺️ Thank you so much for your comment!
She's beautiful and cute. I love colors and her curls. I love to see other Disney princesses as ponies
No this pony is so beautiful. I love your videos because you put so much effort into these ponies. This one is one of my favorites for sure. Lol and I don’t mind your hand in the camera. I like your technique. Not enough artists show their hand position when painting on canvases such as the body of a pony. Omg it’s difficult, for me it is at least. Thank your for making these videos 💕💕💕
Thanks for sharing the whole process. It looks like a lot of work but we'll worth it.
LOL at the "I control the market!" reference 😂
That hair is amazing!!! I’d love to see you make more princess ponies!!!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️
What a beautiful Rapony.
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. Thank you for making pipp petals!
Rapunzel looks amazing! I love the combination of pink and yellow! Could you make a pony inspired by autumn? And try to sew her a bag or a cape? :3
Thank you so much ☺️☺️ Oh wow, I loved the idea of a bag and cape. I love capes!!
This color combination makes me so happy I just love that lemon, gold with the pink!
Wow she looks so stunning *.*
Love this! I love the little sparkly addition ^_^
I think for halloween a “jack-o-lantern” inspired design could be cool or a skeleton pony! Or if it’s not too scary, something inspired by a horror movie like hellraiser, freddie, scream. Or possibly trying to do oogie boogie from the nightmare before christmas.
Would be pretty cool! I’d love to see how you would tackle that ^_^ those are the things that popped into my head :)
Can’t wait to see what you come up with 😊 Take care xo
I had no idea there was ever an official Rapunzel pony! She looks beautiful, but of course I like your custom version the best 💕
This is really cool! You did a nice job on the cutie mark considering what you had to work with, and the hair looks great!! The tinsel in the yellow hair is correct!
I actually have this pony. My mom ordered her for me. She ended up played with a fair amount and her hair is all frazzled by now 🥲 So she's probably not worth as much as the ones you saw on ebay, but still cool to have. Your videos are inspiring, but I'd be too nervous to fix her up myself 😅
Her mane and tail is just so pretty I love how the colors looks all together
purple on pink is a classic princessy combo, i think i prefer it to pink on pink anyway
Definitely one of your best pieces, you did a great job~
She looks beautiful!
Gosh, i have to get some of those blank ponies! I always wanted to design a few ponies for myself. This Rapunzel looms amazing, i think it's so beautiful that this variant exists, i hope you'll recreate others as well with slight changes, it makes it so special.❤
Your video is always one of my go tos to relaxing. For Halloween you should make a Kelpie, I think that would look awesome as a custom pony.
She's cute, but I think the Sun Drop Flower would look cute as her cutie mark, or the dowel and paintbrush. I don't know if you've done a Cinderella I'm sure it would be fun to make, but with Halloween coming how about a ghost pony or a Nightmare pony like how Doll motion did her's? Have a great day.
this was my first time watching a my little pony custom make video, this was so intriguing and I looove the result! your voiceover made the process even more fun to watch :D
I like how the symbol is a little different from the pony. She looks stunning nice job 😀
I only really noticed the first part of the title (I was in too big a hurry to click when I saw a new video from you, haha) and thought this was going to be based on the Disney Rapunzel. Learning about the official Rapunzel pony and getting to see you create your own variant was such a fun surprise! The result is so lovely. As for a spooky pony, maybe something based on a classic movie monster, since you've already done a mummy? Or just an original Halloween design from you would be really cool!
I love how the tinsel made the hair look. ❤
Wow! She looks amazing!
This is so beautiful !! Your videos always make my day, thank you for sharing :):)
ah so pretty!! i love that you embraced the "variant" idea and seem happy with the result because i love it too!!!
I love what you are doing. Great skills !
Somehow I just knew you'd bring up Tangled at some point in this video. *giggles*
Oh my goodness so much hair, I can only imagine how long it took you! The end result looks gorgeous though, well done!!
Can't wait to see some spooky ponies 🎃
She’s so pretty! 🥰
I love this. Now I think you should now all the Disney Princesses as Pony’s
I love your ponies and videos. A quick comment, the phrase is "to your heart's content" 😁 Contempt means something different
I loved this video! so relaxing and cute! I don't know much about pony collecting history so it was really nice to hear you talk a little about it! It's like modern anthropology! it's like you're making a recreation of a relic
I'm going through the video for now, but I'm sure it will turn out great! I'm watching you since last summer (for 1 year now, wow!) and your restoration videos actually were the thing that pushed me to collect ponies (especially G2s, I adore G2s), so.. thank you! And we can learn through your experience what to do and what not, so that's so great... really, thank you!
Wow, thank you so much for your message ☺️☺️ I hope I can do more G2 restorations soon!!
@@RetroGeekCrafts I can understand why, so many G2s are in a good condition (maybe hair shortened and that's all), and I'm glad (due to how obscure this Gen is), but if you would come across a G2 that needs help - I know it will come out as great as Ivy you did ❤ Best of luck on your future projects as well!
💝 I so enjoy watching your videos, especially this one, because it's so gorgeous! And I think your cutie mark looks fab! 💖💖💖
I had an idea for making the cutie marks,you could draw them on water slide paper and apply them like a temporary tattoo sealing with modpoge.
Sooooo Prettyyyyy
Loved it so much
that water cup is sooooo cute
Result is very nice. I love you're cute mark that is very nice alternative. Gasbro should definitely rerelese iconic items❤
Woah I was just customizing a pony and when I looked over at my phone I saw the video pop up!
she looks amazing!! Although I bet you'll be finding your cat playing with tinsel for weeks! XD
Thank you ☺️☺️ Oh, Bruno is quite old so he prefers to loaf on the sofa or my lap. But I might play with it, put it in my hair and such 😀
...I'm pretty sure my cousin had it, which means her mother threw it out or gave it away...
Awesome custom, as always (to be honest, I like it more than the original), and great music! The blank looks so good, too - I wish there were G2 blanks! BTW, wouldn't it be easier to sketch the symbol on a small piece of carbon paper and then transfer the outlines to the pony? Ah, also: I don't want to be That Kind of a Person, but maybe you'd like to know that it's "to your heart's content". :)
Thank you for this video! 😀🌸
Oooh blanks! I think I might try my hand at some simple repairs or customs. My hands shake, though :( However I love your videos. I adored the Minoan pony. Maybe a Grecian one, and a Roman one? An Akkadian one if you're feeling fancy.
Tempted to buy a bait base, and let the creativity go wild, although I'm a bit heavy handed with a paintbrush lol. :3
One of these days I should commission you to make my pony OC. 😂 I bet you'd do a great job.
This Rapunzel pony is gorgeous! How about for Halloween doing a custom pony with a black pony base, orange eyes, a Jack-O-Lantern for the cutie mark, and orange, gold tinsel, and black hair? If you can find black and orange tinsel hair, that would be especially pretty on this custom project.
I love it!! Thank you so much for the idea ☺️☺️ I will look for the tinsel. I am a tinsel fan now 😀
@@RetroGeekCrafts You're welcome! You could also do a black body pony with silver eyes, a ghost cutie mark, and black, silver tinsel and white hair. Tinsel hair for the black and white hair part would be gorgeous too.
question: I know you will probably be searching for questions so i want you to see this!
I don’t have a question but I need you to know that I love your videos and you do amazing work!! ❤keep it up❤
Quedó hermosa!!! Me encantan los colores y los rulos!! Envidio el pelo de ese pony jajajaja como siempre hiciste un trabajo precioso!! felicidades!!
i love this! imo the hair looks better then the original :D As for spooky month. maybe custom Hocus pocus pony's?
Wow thank you so much!! ☺️☺️ You know, I've never seen Hocus Pocus. I will have to watch it soon!!
The pony is
S O C U T E 👏 ✨️
Seriously, great work! I have never heard of the pony, but it's great to learn about ones that I have never heard of. Considering that, heck, I don't really know much about G1.
I hope to learn more about it sometime.
Thank you so much for your message ☺️☺️ Don't worry, I'm learning too!
I had a chuckle at "heart's contempt." I suppose it would get frustrating trying to paint such an intricate cutie mark!
_(if that wasn't meant as a joke and it's just that English isn't your first language, I apologize; the phrase is "heart's content.")_
Really awesome at seeing a custom rare pony! She looks splendid!
Weeeell... 🤣 Let's say it was definitely on purpose haha!! I did think: Should I Google this? And then thought, nahhhhh. I'm glad you liked the custom!
@@RetroGeekCrafts You looked like you had a lot of fun with this one! Would you consider doing other fairy tale inspired ponies in the future?
-edit for what I actually meant but had a brain fart
I love your pony! The tinsel wgeb curled is so good
Tbh i dont get the logic in a human on a cutie mark but you did great at making it.
You're doing fantastic! We love watching everything in your videos, even the mess-ups and do overs. That's what makes your channel so fun to watch. It's real and doesn't feel staged at all. :-) Keep up the good work! :-) Question: Do you have a physical fan mail address? For people to send fan mail or art, supplies, ponies and such? Thanks!
Lovely ❤
@@RetroGeekCrafts welcome 💕love watching you restore and custom toys
Beautifully done, all your work is just wonderful, please can you share how to white,yellow ponies? Whiteout the UV chamber thanks
Thank you so much! If you don't have UV, you can use the sun. Ideally, the salon cream and the sun, but even just sun will work. But it does take a few days/weeks/months!
Oh cool! I was trying to teach myself how to draw anime, but I didn't have a ruler since the 2020s to the present.. Thankfully, my parents gave me the rulers so I can try again! Thanks for that advice! Also, I'm going to high school in 2 days because I tried to make bodies, but sadly I haven't done the anime bodies. Soo I decided to move on! I know that my drawings aren't good because I don't have a ruler for them. Anyway, yes I do draw on my phone and my pc. But yours gave me inspiration! Also I'm deaf in my right ear, so yeah.. I don't know how to speak Japanese but I tried it in middle school. All I know is you can use the index finger to make a sign for a Japanese greeting "Konnichiwa!". I also found out that you can use your hands to sign alphabets in Japanese using your fingers! I'm so forwards to watching you do the customization of my Roblox OC, I also got a base for that! Seems like I need to buy a base for that and customize it! Also I do bases for every characters and make every OCs using bases. And I've been watching you since 2022!
Oh wow, that's so cool!! I would love to learn some Japanese. I've been practising using Duolingo (do you know the app?). It used to be quite difficult because to learn how to read, but now you can do it by "sound". The best way to learn, though, is to keep watching anime!! Good luck in school ☺️☺️ I hope you love it!
Yeah! I once used Duolingo at middle school but my math/science teacher asked me why did i use that app.. but she explained why. So I'm not going use it. Besides, I didn't use the ruler since 2021-present.. So yeah thanks!@@RetroGeekCrafts
Love ur vids
I honestly really love the idea of recreating absurdly rare collectors items. I’ve done it a few times for some absurdly rare plushies and I totally get the “it’s not official but it’s my baby.” The slight wonkiness adds charm!
I absolutely agree. I collect American girl Samantha stuff, and I could spend a lot of money on a tiny embroidered pillow or make my own tiny cross stitch pattern that's close enough and makes me happy to see, even with the imperfect nature of it
