Zebra Pony Playing About - Close Up

As I needed (much) more practise with face/body painting, decided to look back at an older design that was done on me by a friend of mine, and used that as the template for my own Zebra-pony.

It is done in a simple and stylistic "Cirque du Soleil" style with bold stripe patterns, and blue highlights (mainly around the eyes) to complement the blue in the hairpiece and tail, and to make the design stand out a bit more than just the black and white.

A "punk-emo" themed outfit was chosen, which consist of a Tripp vest-top and tight fitting pants with lots of buckles and chains. Black stripy arm-warmers, and a long blue streak of hair with equine styled ears complete the look which goes over a basic white unitard/zentai base.
