Another in an ever-growing line of Stargate-theme ponies: "Todd" the Wraith, who has been an unlikely ally to the Atlantis crew in this latest season of the series (4th).
I used Crayola Model Magic to make the ridges on his brow, the slits on his cheeks, and reshape his nose. I painted him in acrylic (not how his skin is speckled and veined), and drew his distinctive facial tattoo on with a thin-tipped marker (then touched it up with paint). I also painted a black "shirt" on him. Then I coated him with Modge Podge.
He doesn't have a cutie-mark or symbol, partially because I didn't want to put any old Wraith symbol on him without knowing what they mean (if they ever put out a font for it like they did with the Ancient symbols, I might give him a cutie mark after all) and partially because it's not like you can see his hindquarters! The costume's not really like his on the show -- too hard to work at that level of detail at that scale. I had to leave off the arm-guards -- not enough room after doing the shoulder/upper-arm-guards. And the things that should go over the tops of his shoulders ended up looking like a collar here. Such are the perils of working with different anatomy (his tattoo had to be altered a bit in relation to certain facial features as well). I made his coat out of material I had left over from the Todd Bag I made ( [link] ) , aluminum foil, and an old sparkly shirt. The hair is made of this wonderfully soft yarn. The way G3's necks are, I couldn't get a needle through to sew it in place, so instead I sewed the yarn to a piece of felt reinforced with Modge Podge, then hotglued the felt to the back of his neck and trimmed it. Then I hotglued his beard on.
*edited to add* Opps, forgot his feeding hoof. Thanks, das, for reminding me! And you're right, that hole that was already in his hoof, for a stand peg, was perfect for that!
You can see another pic of him here, at my main account: [link]

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More
