Off Topic / What's new with Okie?
« on: March 10, 2014, 08:59:27 PM »
:wave:  Hey everyone! Man, it feels like ages since I've posted here.  I thought I'd give everyone an update on what's going on in my life.  :)

Basically, I kinda fell into a huge depression, and let my social anxiety take over my life.  I've spent the past three years dealing with chronic pain, and fighting for disability.  After I received my last denial, I basically gave up.  I felt depressed, and saw no reason to to go out, and no reason to live.  I became almost hermit like, and turned into an emotional eater.  I've always been a big gal, but I managed to put on over 100 pounds.  This of course, did nothing for my pain, or my depression.

But, all that is in the past.  I'm still working on my disability, but I've also decided I needed help for the mental problems.  I sought out help, and I'm proud to say this past year, I've lost 100 pounds, and four dress sizes!   :accomplished:  I feel so much better about myself, and I'm starting to get out of the house more, I'm getting back into my art, and even attempted dating.  :P 

So that's what's new with me!  Plan on seeing a bit more of me around here again! :lovey:

Customs / G1 MGR Sugarberry
« on: August 13, 2013, 02:49:42 PM »
This girl was my entry for this year's Hasbro Inspired contest at the fair. :)
She's for sale in my etsy shop (link in my siggie).  I am open to reasonable offers, but I can't do trades at this time.  Thanks for looking!  :biggrin:

She has been airbrushed a lovely white, with pearly accents, so she shimmers. Her hair is a blend of several different nylon colors, and she features a hand sculpted saddle covered in Strawberries and blossoms. She can be removed from her stand for easier shipping, and I do ship overseas.

Customs / Lucky Charm
« on: March 13, 2013, 04:06:01 PM »
Meet Lucky Charm!  ^.^  She started life as a Sweetiebelle, that's been painted with acrylics and sealed. Her eyes matched so well, I left them be, and just redid the lashes. Her hair is a blend of Retro Doll's Apple Nylon, Mojito monofiber, and Dollyhair's Poison Ivy.

Trader & Shipping Support / Ebay help! Lost/Damaged items.
« on: February 26, 2013, 11:36:57 AM »
In all my time selling on Ebay, I have never had a package go missing, or get damaged, until now.   -_-  One item was shipped out on 01/22 and she still hasn't received it.  She's opened a case with Paypal and is wanting all of her money back.  The other says they received their item, but the shipping box was smashed in on both sides, damaging the item's box.  They want a refund of their shipping.  Neither of them purchased insurance. 

I want to make sure I'm doing right.  Is it my responsibility to refund the first item 100%, and see what I can do as far as chasing after the PO?  What about the damaged one?  I've asked them for pics of the damage before I do anything.

Customs / G1-G4 Funko Firefly
« on: January 30, 2013, 06:39:06 PM »
This girl was made from a Funko Rainbow Dash.  I bought her from Hot Topic and the eyes were misaligned, so I decided to customize her.  :)  She's been airbrushed a Firefly pink, and the hair and other little details where hand painted.  I left her symbol glitter free, but if you give her a new home and want her symbols to sparkle, I can add it for you.

She's for sale on ebay! http://www.ebay.com/itm/140911668167?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649

Customs / Anyone know who made these customs? *Pic Heavy*
« on: January 11, 2013, 07:22:41 PM »
These girls were up on ebay being sold by Goodwill.  I ended up winning them, and hoped once I got them, they'd have a signature on them.  Nope.  Nothing at all for me to identify them with.   :(  I've tried several internet searches and have turned up nothing.  I'm hoping someone here will recognize them so I can know who made them.  They look like they had a rough time, they where all a bit dirty, and will need some touchups.  Thankfully, they were sealed with a waterproof sealant, so I was able to remove a lot of the dirt with a baby wipe.  I'm going to do my best to touch them up.

These two are basically just prepped baits, but I thought maybe someone would recognize the eye style?

Trader & Shipping Support / Neutral Feedback on eBay Given by Mistake?
« on: January 06, 2013, 04:11:50 PM »
I received my first neutral feedback on ebay yesterday.  :huh: The comment only said, "nice" so I messaged the seller to see what was wrong.  They said they where in a hurry, and must have hit the wrong button, it should have been positive.   :|  My question is, is there anyway to change it?  Or should I just cut my losses?

All of these where commissioned by a father for his daughter.  The daughter designed them, and he asked me to help bring them to life.  Each one was airbrushed with acrylics and rehaired with dollyhair.

Trader & Shipping Support / limekoko Non paying ebay buyer!
« on: December 04, 2012, 09:38:42 PM »
Another deadbeat ebayer!  Be sure and add limekoko to your blocked lists.  According the the feedback that keeps rolling in for her, she has bid on several Vintage Strawberry Shortcake Auctions, some to the tune of $100 plus, and hasn't paid for any of them.  Sadly, one of those was mine, but thankfully, it was just for $2.00.  I hate these waste of time buyers! >:C

Thought I'd let everyone know, since a lot of us sell all kinds of 80's toys.
