Pony gift brag
« on: May 05, 2018, 06:40:32 PM »
A friend of mine found out that I was collecting ponies and told me I could have her daughter's old ponies that were just sitting in her storage shed. I'm pretty new to collecting so I'm not sure what most of them are but I'm looking forward to figuring it out and cleaning them up.

How nice of your friend to give you these! I have a few of thesemyself, but is that a kimono in the back I see? And an applejack? You are one lucky duck! Hey! You should put pictures of them all cleaned up when you get the chance.

I will definitely post some photos of them after they have a pony spa day! I think most of them will come clean with ArmorAll wipes and very little scrubbing and then I'll just need to do all their hair which is the fun part.

Thanks, Leave a Whisper! I look forward to the day when I can more quickly identify ponies. The only G3s I instantly identified in person were Minty, McDonalds Minty, and Applejack.

I'll be honest, I have a hard time with G4 because they are different from the G1s I grew up with. They all seem small to me, so I just sort of mentally categorize them all interchangeably as "probably McDonalds". So seeing that most of the Twilight Sparkles from this lot are actually McDonalds does make me feel better about my categorization skills.

As promised, here a few updated photos of my cleaned up little additions! I didn't take photos of all of them yet, but they're all now cleaned and combed.

Starcatcher's hair and symbol are much more of a vibrant pink in person. I'll have to try her again in better light, I think. But I was just so pleased with how clean and pretty she looks now.

Kimono has a few flyaway glitter strands in her hair but overall I think she looks much better now.

Applejack has one very small scratch at the edge of her symbol. She was very dirty so I'm pleased that there was only one scratch under all that grime. This is the direction her mane naturally wanted to fall. I wasn't sure if I should wet it and force it to dry in the other direction, because I mostly see ponies with their manes on the opposite side of their body to their symbols. In the end I decided to just go with how the hair naturally wanted to fall and add some visual variety to my herd. (Same thing with Starcatcher.)

True to her name, I think Minty came out of spa day looking the mintiest of all of the ponies.
