    The hardcover edition proof copy turned out great - some text mistakes to fix, but no printing errors that aren't mine! Lulu can print a book to specifications! Yay!

    Seashell: getting closer to print!

    Here's where we are on the Seashell print book:
    83 pages all told, including front matter and a preface. 75 of them so far are story. Anticipating about 10-20 more pages to be finished. Almost there!
    Cover's done (for the hardcover edition dust-jacket, at least, will probably have to be redone for the paperback but whatever).

    Jinglemas 2023, done!

    I wrote this thing for Penguifyer, and today is my assigned day to deliver the gift, so I guess this is when the story drops:

    TLost
    Twilight, on her new wings, couldn't find her way around Cloudsdale. It may have left more of mark on her than she wants to admit. Written for Jinglemas 2023.

Another day*, another plushie · 8:37pm Aug 1st, 2020

Back at it again! Made this one recently for Crimson Star.

This was very interesting to work on. The coat coloration and asymmetrical socks with curved edges made for a complicated pattern, but it turned out great! I'm really happy with this one. Especially pleased with the fluting and alignment on her horn. I think I have the embroidery pattern and sewing technique for unicorn horns really nailed down now to where I want it to be.

Alas, I was held up in finishing this one for about two weeks while I waiting for just the right minky fabric to arrive, but it was worth it to get the color perfect. :twilightsmile:

Commissions are open and stuff, if you're thinking you want to get something made...


*Please note that I can't actually make a plushie in just a day. I beg you, don't make me try, it won't be good for any of us. :raritydespair:

Dawww..... They are soooo cute!

Very beautiful and nicely done, Winston! The Two tone coloration of her coat must have taken some time to put together and I love the spiraling on her horn. Great work!

Very nice work. :)
And thanks for sharing these!

As for the footnote, though, nah, you just need to get sufficiently creative. After all, it doesn't specify where the day is; why, I bet you could probably turn out quite a few ponies in the time it takes Venus to go through a full rotation. :D

Damn I wish I could sew that well. These are great.
