Derpy Hooves Woodwork

A couple of things.
First: I feel vindicated in my belief that these ponies look best without eyes. It messes up the....purity of the carving. It's like paint, I could paint the ponies, but I just think they look better plain. In the same way, I could carve them eyes, but they don't quite fit with the idea of a wooden pony. For Derpy, though, I kind of had to.
Second: I had tons of fun making Derpy's movable wings, even if they are funny looking. In the end, they don't look really bad, and they DO flap up and down. How cool is that? They can also lie flat against her body so that she can be packed up lying down.
Second.One: I had a surprising amount of fun making Derpy's letters and muffin (not shown here) What can I say, I love doing tiny tiny details like writing "SWAK" in 1/4mm tall letters. It was great.
