Tool takes me about 30/50 minutes depending on if I get distracted by playing with hair colors.

I sadly purchased a piggy Snuzzle that I was unaware was so yellowed. She looks almost brown.

Would any of you recommend trying to sunfade her or is that the REASON she might be discolored...

Any ideas would be great.

To whom it may concern... I have now been tattooing for 7 years. Very soon to be 8. This is still young in tattoo years. I have come to a crucial decision in my life, one that I cannot make lightly. I have a very very bad habit of turning hobbies into money making businesses. I started making custom action figures and My Little Ponies over 9 years ago when I was a veterinary technician. I was tired of the daily grind and my partner in crime insisted I could do something with my artwork in the field of tattooing being a seasoned and skilled tattoo artist himself. It was something that I had attempted to break into a long time before and it just didn't work out. Thankfully after a few failed apprenticeships I still had the desire to continue with my goal. That's when I was suggested to Craven Ink. it was my last attempt to give it a go. They have stuck with me through thick and thin. I'll state again they are some of the few people that can put up with me.

I stress. Everyday. That I'm not good enough. That I need to try more. That I need more devotion, more application, more technique, more learning. More blood, more sweat, more tears. And I do. Those of you that know me well know that I have MANY hobbies. Many outlets. Many business ventures.

As of today, I am parting with them. I will no longer be selling doll hairing tools or needles. I will not longer be selling made to order zombie jewelry. I will not longer be offering pre-sales on prints. I am done. I need to do this to relieve my stress. I have been caught up in making that extra little bit of money to support my collecting habit (you say 2,500+ ponies is enough. I say no. never.) I have been caught up in the delight of the sale. I have been caught up in the pursuing of monetary means and fulfillment. I say no, NO MORE. I spend my days off huddled next to my computer printing and arranging endlessly. I spend it hunched over an art desk airbrushing and sculpting. I spend it grinding needle after needle after needle. I wake up to a to do list that doesn't involve "fun" or "relax". I come home every night and toil away or stress out when I don't. I find excuses not to work on things I should because it stresses me.

I can't do this anymore. I need to focus on my artwork. I need to focus on my passion on tattooing. I need to cast aside my business ventures and grow as a person, not as a business(s). I am good enough by myself to do this. I am accepting I cannot do everything. TATTOOING has become my career and my passion. It's time to show it I can stand tall. I need to focus on family. On friends. On life. On enjoyment. On breathing. On the little things.

So on that note----I will be finishing all of my previous commitments. If you have a trade with me or a commissioned piece----you will receive it. My kickstarter funders will be fulfilled. My current orders will be filled and my currents stock will me sold. After I have run out of ready made stock---- back stock and materials will be sold as destash or put up on Etsy or eBay. I must say goodbye. I must become better for myself. I will become more FOCUSED on tattooing. I will still paint. For myself and my clients. I will share when I am ready to share with prints, and selling my creations. I will sell prints as I have time. I will still be doing ponies. But I will be doing what I want to do, and then selling them possibly. The same with paintings. No more commissions.

I am sorry those of you who that disappoints, but when a hobby that you once found joyful becomes a burden---something must be changed. If I make things that people want to buy, I'll be happy to offer them if I chose to sell, but I will not be guilted into it. This is for me. It is my choice, and mine alone. I feel like this is one step in many. Thank you for understanding. ---The Management.
