<soapbox>Hi everyone.
So here in about a month and a half I'll be using this rocking horse and, if I can swing it, a sister piece as prizes in a charity auction or some-such contest. All proceeds will go to a young lady named Sunshine, who I met in the Yunnan province during a recent trip with a non-profit medical organization. She's currently paying for heart operations and post-op treatment.
I know it's a ways away at the moment, and I know that there are an enormous number of other extremely worthy causes that deserve your money too, but please consider making a donation when the time comes, and know that it will be for a good cause.
More on this event as it arrives.
</soapbox>
PS: A cheap hat will be included in the prize. It just wouldn't stay on for pictures.
Wow. This ended up being much more interesting than I imagined. It wasn't exactly difficult, but it was entirely different from anything I've done to date. I had to learn some entirely new tools and I have been reinforced in my opinion that I need to learn to paint. The paint job on this is not stellar. I'll try to do better next time. (I'm thinking Rainbow Dash just to see if I can manage wings and because
is the coolest girl I know. It also took at least 40 solid hours of work, and I've been doing nothing else every day since Saturday, so I am really enormously sorry, but I'm behind on my self-deadlines and probably will only finish one more piece before I ship off. ![:| (Blank Stare) :|](https://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/blankstare.gif)
I'll see if I can improve the smoothness of the rockers for the next one, but this piece still has a pretty good motion to it. I had to freehand the curve because it was too shallow to take a compass or pencil-on-string method. Also, for those interested, that yarn is the softest I could find; it's like touching a cloud.
Also thanks to my siblings for modeling the pony, my sister is 5'3" and my brother is 4'9" to give you a sense of size. And it can safely hold at least 140lbs, which is to say, me, although I didn't rock very hard on her.
Want to see more of this piece? Check out the quite extensive work in progress gallery and equally expansive finished galley at My Little Woodcraft.
