When sneak peaks of Season 3 of My Little Pony aired, I saw the clip of Rainbow and Lightning Dust flying side by side and I was instantly hooked: who was this new pony? Would she be Rainbow's new friend? Plus I love her color scheme. So I was kinda disappointed when the episode aired and she turned out to be so shallow. Still, her art design and color scheme is really neat, so over Christmas break I finally started to make her!
Lightning Dust stands 12" tall and is made entirely of soft minky fabric. Her eyes and cutie mark are machine embroidered. Most of the examples I saw had closed wings, but I thought as a champion flier, she really needed open wings!
Credit for the eye pattern goes to ~EthePony. Cutie mark embroidery file and pony pattern are mine. Interested in commissioning a pony of your own? Feel free to note me! Want to make a pony of your own? Check out my pony minky color guide to help figure out what colors to buy [link]
