Angel of Valhalla Chocobo

Commissioned request of the Angel of Valhalla Chocobo from the Play Station 3 video game Final Fantasy XIII: Lightning Returns.

Requested pony base is of the g4 Princess Celestia. I used a hard-haired mold, popped the mane and tail off after some careful incisions via exacto blade.

Laid down a base coat of Gesso to prime for the paint, a texture for the acrylics to bond to over the pony.
Started paint work with base coats of lemon chiffon pale yellow acrylics, with antique cream white over top. Painted eyes in black, browns, red, grays and beak in creams, yellows, oranges and light browns.
Painted the hoof armor of Celestia the color of chocobo claws, in medium to dark browns.

Cut the wings off after the paint work was done, and re-positioned them downward to more closely match the chocobo.

Added white feathers into the tail hole, on the back and in the mane. Glued them in place, and brushed the tips gently with neon green acrylic paint.

All paint work sealed in Artists Varnish.

Ironically, this was completed week prior to Thanksgiving! Happy Turkey Day Everypony~

Perfect time of year to have Chocobo projects. ^___^
