| A Restoration Story |
 |
 |
 |
| Novia came to me as a holiday gift from a great pony friend of mine. When I received her, she had burns, scratches, chewed feet, ears, and muzzle, faded symbols, etc. But she definitely looked to me like she could be restored with some time and patience. |

| I scrubbed her with a brillo pad and nail polish remover, then used an exacto knife and sandpaper to smooth out the chewed and burned parts of her body. I defrizzed her hair and found a new tail. I also repainted the symbols and eyes. Now she's gorgeous! |

| Paint-A-Figure: Peachy |
 |
| I bought Peachy from someone in the pony community, in the condition she was pictured above. I didn't have to do much besides repaint her, since the old paint had already been taken off (or so it seemed) and there was little residue to remove. |
| I repainted her with acrylic paint, choosing to keep her as Peachy (instead of the only other option, Snuzzle, which would have been just as cute I'm sure). |
