Princess Luna (update) Wing Patterns and Horn Prototyping part 1

Hi everypony
(This post is Pony related, so it seems fair that i use the language associated with the fandom i'm doing this costume for)

I've spent a large portion of today drawing pegasus pony wing patterns. Open and closed.
Ranging from patterns for wings for the younger characters, (e.g. Scootaloo), older ponies (e.g. Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy), I even did seperate patterns for the princesses, Luna and Celestia. Because no doubt, somepony who wants to do a pony cosplay will find them useful.
Photos will be up as soon as i find my camera.

This post also covers unicorn horns.
I made a small one today out of Du-kit, a modelling clay i referenced in an earlier post.
Making it was relatively straight forward.
I took about a third of the clay, then divided that in two.
made two shapes that resembled spikes.
Then twisted the two together. and your basically done.
But it seems a little heavy and a little small, especially at the length it needs to be for Luna, so i might try another way or find a way to make it lighter. this method would be fine for any unicorn character besides the princesses.


also considering doing costumes for: Lyra/Heartstrings, Twilight Sparkle and Derpy Hooves/Ditzy Doo
But i want to get some of my other cosplay costumes out of the way first, and i also want to attempt some Dr Horrible goggles, because those are just awesome.

That's it for this update
