Pony base is a fakie. Did the body recolor with a base of gray leather dye. Dabbed it on with an applicator, then left it outside while the dye dried and did 2-3 coats. I then went in with various pigments of metallic/gray acrylic paints for rest of the detailing. Raised aqua portions of the design on the body are hemp cording I glued on with fabric glue and sealed with Artists Varnish. Embellished with rhinestones, sealed with mod podge.
Carved holes below the ears and on the shoulders for the horns and wings.
Wings started off with wooden dowels, with purple leather glued around them. Then layered on the dyed feathers with fabric glue, embellished with beads. Wrapped wire around the wood dowels then secured the wires with mod podge and wrapped strings of beads around them. Did this so the wings and mane wouldn’t disappear into each other. Apparently that happens when I make winged customs with hair.
With that said, mane is dyed feathers punctured into the scalp via re-hair tool method. Gray faux fur glued at the front for bangs, this fur is also glued around the neck and at base of tail. Purple hemp cord lines the horns and neck line.
Tail is silver rope with feather tied at the tip via red hemp cording. Embellished with mystic fire stones and other beads strung on wire.

Interesting. Nice job on it. I still have to work on your badge... I may have to work on it some.... besides coloring. I guess it's one of those things where I look at it now and it bugs me. Know what I mean? I can still do it up as is so your mate can have fap material :D
Ah I think I know the feeling. It's a massive pain whenever I color my own character too, lol seems like it takes forever.
Not sure if this would help any, but here's some alternate references of animalistic versions of her... the leopard/tiger markings are slightly clearer:
