Found? Where? While you were digging in the dirt?  Wow! What a transformation!

More or less; I don't know how, but when we moved a few years ago, a few ponies get left outside; then someone piled outdoors stuff in front of them and so they got left outside for nearly three years! ^^;

@Buttersketch....I am in awe...that is serious restoration! I am embarrassed to say that pony wouldnt even have made it as bait in my house...

@Valeofspring...you have serious patience, Twisty looks amazing

The danger with these threads is I always end up deciding that ponies look better with different colour mains...Majesty is so much cuter with the dark blue!
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
Loa is my love god!
I love Loa more than PonyLady!

I LOVE threads like these!!! Cat I agree - the ponies with alternate coloured manes look so cool!

I haven't done anything major, although I've been meaning to do some alternate rehairing for ages but I hate rehairing so keep putting it off! :lmao: Give me a magic eraser, some conditioner and a pair of straighteners and I'm happier...

I don't know if this counts as restoration, but I replaced Princess Rinse'n'Spit's grey, faded string hair with some real hair.

Most of the stains were removed with Oxyclean, sunfading and soaking in Hydrogen Peroxide. I repainted her symbols and gave her a new mane and tail.


And this reminds me, I still have to finish the rest of the ponies that I found with Scoops. ^_^;

Oh,my!Do you have magic skills or something? :silly: :whoa:

I've only done conditioner jobs really. My Baby Quackers I posted about cigarette smoke and yellowing is now lovely and white. That's the bravest thing I've done with regards to restoring. Haven't photographed her yet.
I really enjoy looking at restorations of G1s. Each time a pony is saved or restored I smile like I'm 6 years old again :)

Pinkkittywinks. I think your beddy bye eye restorations are fantastic. Especially those twinkle eyed ones you did. When I checked back on the UKPonyCon Forum I saw they had sold :( :( They were beautiful

Wow, so many amazing restores! I have to admit, if I found some of those, I wouldn't have given it the time of day. But that's why I sell them because I hope someone will:)

I really wish I had more photos of some of mine but the only one I could find was a rehair of a buzzed Diamond Dreams who I gave some nice new locks too:)

How do you make those awesome wings for the wingers!? Or are they originals? They look amazing either way:)
