My Little Pony G4 to G5 Custom: Zipp Storm. Rehair, Repaint & Sculpting - OOAK Variation MLP Toy

[@HoshiBerry]

Keeping the G4 eye style was definitely a good choice, and the sculpted "hoof hair" looks better too. I felt bad for that poor pony when you shoved up all this stuff in their butt though xD

[@RetroGeekCrafts]

Thank you so much 😊😊 Yeah, I felt bad too haha. I chose not to add my usual comments to that part!

[@Oboromaru]

Small tip for anyone looking to do a pony custom that has added wings or sculpting near the neck/back area, if possible, put the head back on first! It will help you avoid two scenarios: 1- making the shape of the sculpting/wings stick out in a way that makes it impossible to reattach the head, and 2- accidentally breaking the sculpting/added parts in the process of reattaching the head if you use too much force (especially helpful for g4 since their heads are SO HARD to put on and take off the body)

[@RetroGeekCrafts]

That's GREAT advice ☺️☺️ Thank you so much for sharing! (I had to remove the head's inner ring because I was afraid it would break if I pushed too hard, which happened with other customs I did :/)

[@Lollipup-Toffee]

@@RetroGeekCrafts you should try really hot water! I used it to fix my G4’s ridiculously dry hair,(The hot water and conditioner is working! My little sisters decided to put soap (it makes doll hair super frizzy) all over the ponies and they are now back to the way they were before 😑) the heads become so soft! I was amazed they just squished really easy! I didn’t try taking the heads off, but I’d try that, also try turning the head backwards and pulling it off from the side that’s facing the body! I did that with my first custom!(it turned out terrible, I was around 9)

[@ArchieRatsworth]

@@RetroGeekCrafts You should look into some custom Monster High and Barbie channels, they have great techniques for removing heads and taking out the hair.

[@reig36]

@@ArchieRatsworth those are monster highs and barbies, not ponies 💀

[@clownRatcity]

@@reig36they are still made of similar materials and have similar techniques though

[@InnocentGuillotine]

For "tuftier" (for lack of a better word) hair, I usually see doll customizers use brushed out yarn wefts; it's more easily set to a shape with just fingers, since it naturally wants to clump up.

[@RetroGeekCrafts]

I need to try them! Thank you so much for the tip ☺️☺️

[@HER_Only_sIN]

!! TIP !! When removing the g4 heads I really recommend boiling the water, letting the head soak, then pulling it off. It is softer with the hot water but it hardens right back up after without damage.

[@RetroGeekCrafts]

Thank you so much for the tip!!! I will give this a try 😊😊

[@theGhostWolfe]

I think the reason the G4 eyes “work” has to do with how we perceive characters/faces. Unless you’re depicting a particular expression, you generally want the iris fill most of the visible eye, otherwise you get a perpetually surprised expression, especially with the high brow ridge and the eyebrows being so prominent.

[@RetroGeekCrafts]

Yes, you're right ☺️☺️ I am much happier with this version although I hope I can keep trying different styles until I find oek that feels "mine" :)

[@stjarne6802]

zipp looks AMAZING- definitely a step up with the eyes and the way you molded the hooves!!

[@RetroGeekCrafts]

Thank you so much 😊😊

[@EmilyRitcheson]

I really like how you leave in the sound from your footage - all the little clicks and rustles of hearing you work is actually strangely satisfying! But it's not so loud that it's distracting. It really works with your presentation style! 💖

[@RetroGeekCrafts]

Thank you 😊😊 It doesn't always work. I tend to breath on the mic A LOT xD but I carefully edit those out. I need to practise catching my breath!

[@crystaleyeofwoof5537]

Thank you 😊😊

[@jamisanmatalonis8458]

I’m so glad you changed the wings! I’m one of the few people who really like Zipp’s design more than her original concept designs. The wings being emphasized by her colors really gives her that feeling of “gotta go fast”.

[@RetroGeekCrafts]

Thank you 😊😊 I haven't seen the original concepts! I'll take a look!

[@limendime3720]

Looks lovely! Her hair and feathers are fantastic. I also prefer this way of making the hooves show instead of carving into them.

[@RetroGeekCrafts]

I absolutely adore the gradient you added to her wings!!! The hair above the hooves is a major improvement as well! These videos are so calming and I absolutely love them. The little warnings you give are also amazing!

Thank you SO much for following the videos, I'm really happy you enjoy them ☺️☺️

[@konoikurozora5851]

Okay so, since I didn't see the movie, it's a bit hard to judge how well you represented the character, but as a custom on it's own, I adore this pony! The wings are probably the most stunning part, with that awesome gradient, but honestly I love it all. And it looks way better than Izzy did. While I'm not a sculptor, a tip for the eyes from someone who draws and paints - I see how it may be difficult to change the expression since the eyes come with the sculpt. I would suggest making only small variations to the overall shape of the eye, but play around with the position and size of the irises, and the size of the pupils too. Depending on if they are more or less contracted, it affects the expression a lot. Generally speaking, for the eyebrows, you'll want them lower, closer to the eyes, for more tense expressions - frowns and so on, while very raised eyebrows will be used for happier, dreamier or more surprised expressions. If you play with both the irises/pupils and the eyebrows, you should be able to attain quite a lot of expressions without having to really touch the sculpt or anything.

[@RetroGeekCrafts]

Thank you so much for your tips!! I really want to try the lower eyebrows, I feel that could make a nice difference. I hope I can try more variations soon ☺️☺️

[@esmeme6453]

For hair that's easier to shape you could use acrylic yarn wefts! I love how it turned out though!

[@RetroGeekCrafts]

Acrylic would have definitely stayed "upwards" more easily! This must the be the only time I actually wished I had used acrylic xD Thank you 😊😊

[@snowmotions3638]

Man.. i wish that they had offical g5 toys that looks this amazing! I love this so much!

[@pyro-millie5533]

Damn she’s so pretty!!! I think keeping the G4 eyes but adding the larger wings and more hair holes definitely succeeded in blending G4 and G5 designs! Also that gradient on the feathers is SOOOO SATISFYING!!!

Thank you so much 😊😊 I'm really glad you liked it!

[@catouniverse]

THANK YOU for the trypophobia alert! I have it, and it was very thoughtful of you to include the warning! it was very nice not randomly having to see it, and skipping that part made it so I was able to fully enjoy the video.

[@AmenProletar]

Let me be honest. I might not be your target demographic here (19 years old, male) but I love the figures and toys, and what I love more is customizing them. I followed this video from the beginning and I am surprised to see how it came out! You are a very skilled artist. Zipp is the last pony I got, an Egmont figure from a magazine (the only official Hasbro figures that ship to my country). I have around 15 Egmont figures and some 10 brushables. I got them out the last summer and picked a custom rainbow dash. I renamed it to Daniel and removed the colors from its hair and tail, they both became purple. Making that custom was kind of complicated cause I merged the body of a brushable with the mane and tail of the mechanical rainbow dash set (the one with moving legs and wings and a mail hat, I don't remember the name) Thanks for your patience with toys. Such an art!

[@AnniChu]

The wings look GORGEOUS!! Definitely an improvement!! Great job!

[@RetroGeekCrafts]

3:10 It you heat up the material by dunking the head into warm/hot water, you'd be able to pop the head off of the neck peg without having to use the exacto knife. If you don't with to do that, you can also use a hair dryer to warm up the material (which makes it softer) and it'll be an easy pop.

Here’s a small tip, before taking out the hair, try placing the head in a bowl of semi-hot water, it can help soften the glue and allow you to take the hair out more quickly

[@RetroGeekCrafts]

Thank you so much! I will try this for the next pony 😊😊

[@warrmalaski8570]

If you need to re-hair A alicorn-style doll's tail. Twist a drill bit into the socket to remove the old hair. then to replace the hair double it up. drip a bit of glue on the loop to make a hard plug. then drip the same glue into the tail slot on the doll. Just before pushing the plug in.

[@RetroGeekCrafts]

Thank you for the tip!! I will give it a try 😊😊

[@satinizer8021]

i know this video is kinda old, but my tip for more expressions: change the eye shapes too! it usually looks weird when you have normally opened eyes and furrowed eyebrows or with one eyebrow raised, etc. the eyes must change shapes too for it to look natural!

Her mane looks so full and beautiful 😱 I've thought about trying my hand at making series accurate customs of the g4s if I can get my hands on some spares, but I wasn't sure if punching extra holes in their heads to give them beautiful, thick manes would turn out right. But now I'm determined to do it!

[@freebre_1976]

I'm new to my little pony customization so idk if it would work but heating the head up slightly just till it's slightly squishy in hot water or with a hair dryer helps doll customizers remove the head of dolls and it melts the glue enough to make it easier to scrap the hair plugs out.

[@RetroGeekCrafts]

Thank you so much for the tip! 😊 I think that would definitely work. I will try next time!

I'm no expert at non-G1 ponies or crafting, but I think the improvement is huge as far as the eyes are concerned. I see what you mean about an expression but I quite like it this way personally. I like the hooves better this time, although I wondered if making them out of real hair or fur wouldn't solve the dilemma you've been having about them (or maybe I've been watching too many doll customization videos). I quite like the wing's gradient, too :) Thank you for caring so much about these little friends, this one really was a rescue mission ! 13:38 I spilled my drink XD

Hi there! There's actually an easier way to remove the hair in the head! :) If you let the head sit in warm water for 10 to 20 minutes (I think Abt that long) it'll make the glues soft and it'll be a lot easier to take out the hair! :)
