The lace had to go....

The bottom of her gown looks much better now. I removed the lace and added more of the velvet fabric with trim. She has a small train that comes to a point in the back.

Princess Ariana and her unicorn

The unicorn got a tapestry blanket and a turquoise leather harness. Then I made the princess. She has long auburn hair and green eyes. She's dressed in velvet and lace and at the moment is not permanently attached to the unicorn. I'm pleased with the pair of them and now need to think about how to make a tower and/or castle. I think I'm going to have to make a wizard to keep, too. Darius looks pretty good standing there. :)

Time for a castle?

A couple of times ago when the Round Robin swap box came my way, I found a solid brass unicorn in it. I wasn't sure what I would do with it but it said "keep me" so I did. ;) Yesterday I painted it (3 coats of Gesso, 1 coat of oyster paint over all, accent colors added, sealed with matte sealer.) I love how it turned out. I think I want to make a princess to ride on him or maybe make a castle tower and have the unicorn at the base. Ideas are still forming but, oh, the possibilities. :D
