Hey there!
« on: April 11, 2019, 04:24:44 PM »
Hello! My name is Effie. I'm on the younger side (seventeen), I live in the UK, and I like to draw. That's... basically all there is to say about me. I'm a very boring person.

I'm not a collector per-se, but I have a bunch of old ponies (G1 and G3) from my childhood that I'm looking to clean up and display. That's why I'm here, mostly. I figure that actual collectors know a lot more about pony restoration than anyone else, and this would be a great place for me to learn what I can do with the (very limited, the woes of being a broke teenager) resources I've got available. There's YouTube videos and all, but having multiple sources sounds and the ability to ask for specific advice is appealing to me. Plus, scrolling through here is pretty interesting on it's own.

They're currently still in a box in the loft, and I plan to get them down later this week. I haven't seen them since I was a kid. I don't know what kind of condition they're in, and considering they've been through more than one mouse infestation, have had other boxes piled on top of them, and have just generally been sitting around for the past six or seven years - I'm a little scared to find out.

Great to have you at the Arena efelkay :wave:  I hope your childhood ponies are still ok when you get them out of storage.  We have some great restoration threads here and plenty of grooming advice in the Pony Coral if you want some pointers.  Enjoy the forum!  :frolic:  :happy:

Welcome to the Arena :cheer:

I hope that your childhood ponies aren't that crazy scary and that you enjoy unpacking them and having a spa day with them all :)
