Customs / RDUK color matches
« on: May 13, 2020, 10:38:22 AM »
can someone direct me to the color match thread for RDUK compared to the Dollyhair names? Thanks!

Hey all!  :biggrin:
I know I'm horrible about getting on the Arena, but I think my laptop situation has been worked out and now I have a computer that is NOT designated as a TV (Thanks ChromeCast!  :ohyeah:) so I should be able to get back here more. EYECANDY PONY PICS AT THE BOTTOM (yes these are things for sale) :heart:

I wanted to say that I am still running my eCrater store!

http://sqponies.ecrater.com

I try to update it at least once a month, if not more, when I have extras to sell. Right now, pending listing, are a bunch of TLC-type Nirvana ponies, and a bundle of G2s (some nonUS).

*All of the ponies on my site have been washed and restored, but this does not mean altered. The most alteration a pony gets on my eCrater store is to have the rusty tail washed replaced by a ziptie. (To be honest, I don't always mention I've done this on each particular pony, but if you want to know, just ask. Tail rust is a pet peeve of mine and I'd rather prevent it in the future than preserve a rusty washer!)

*As always my prices on my store are negotiable.*

*Shipping can be wonky for International buyers, or for people wanting to add a large amount of small items to their cart. If there's ever a question on the shipping cost of something, just message me either through the store, on here, or if you know me on Facebook - send me a message there.  :sunny:

*Side note, for mobile users, the site can be kind of confusing. When you click on the name of a category (say, G1) it will open up all the sub categories (such as Adults, Babies, Playset Accessories, etc). From there, you can either click on the > symbol, or the name, and it will show you that. If you click on the > next to something like My Little Pony G1, it will open up all items in that category (aka everything under the large category of G1.)

:sunny: A couple pictures of items just to show some things recently listed, but as I mentioned, more are always on the way :sunny:
(BTW, how do people even use Photobucket anymore, there are so many ads, ahhh!  :silly:)

Hi, again, it's me, Sunshine. I was thinking of the Arena earlier today. It's like a love affair you can't quite leave behind (not that I want to!) - but I keep coming back to the Arena and I REALLY want to dedicate a little more time here than I have been for the past few years. :heart:

I am very active on Facebook on MLP groups, but I don't seem to be doing anything much more than that. And that's lame, because I miss the Arena and all my friends here that I do not see on Facebook as often.

So, my 2017 New Years Resolution is to make sure I come on here AT LEAST once a week to post. I want to renew old friendships and make some new ones as well. :grouphug:

So I hope to talk to you all more and more. I will be posting some of my customs (as that's primarily what I do now) - an updated want list, my regular MLP sales, and try to get really back into the swing of things. I hope everyone has a wonderful start to 2017. I know the world needs it...  :cloud:

I'm not always buying - just FYI... but this is the easiest place for me to keep track of a list of things I actually want to FOCUS on getting for my personal collection!

If you have one of my more expensive items, and do payment plans, or partial payments, etc - please contact me regardless, some things I've been after for SO LONG and I'd be willing to try to make it work! I have lots of feedback, even though a lot of it is a bit old at this point, I've been also doing lots of business on Facebook and can link you to more current feedback as a buyer and as a seller. I'm also interested in trading always.

Hi all!!  :lovey:

I've been a bit absent from selling around here as of late, however my store:


has been around the whole time! I haven't had a chance until lately to update my store with new items from ALL generations - G1 through G4 - whatever I find and is extra for me that I come across in my quest for my own collecting goals.

The eCrater platform works well on both computer and mobile - but when using mobile please note to go further into categories you have to click the right facing arrow >

I have LOTS of things in the store right now, but I'm going to try to update this post with little photo collages of new things being added from time to time.

:hearts:OTHER IMPORTANT INFO - PLEASE READ - SHIPPING INFO FOR ECRATER, DISCOUNTS, SWAPS, TRADES, ETC! :hearts:
*I try to be an accommodating seller in many respects - I will take offers on my prices (haggle, but be prepared for potential counter-offers, and feel free to "play the game" with me!  :lol:), I work with people who show good communication and have positive feedback offering payments or potentially discounts. I do hold items with a "pay date" established between us. I am also open to trades! So - please, if you see something you're interested in, shoot me a PM, I'm sure we can work things out!*

IMPORTANT eCrater Shipping Info: This is crazy confusing, so I'm putting this in a spoiler now.
Spoiler
The store will NOT correctly show you shipping prices if:
-You have multiple items in the "cart"
-You are outside the US
-You purchase a large/heavy item

Put the order through, I KNOW shipping is wrong, and I will correct it and send an invoice from Paypal to you. Don't pay it! You'll never get a nasty email from me demanding payment. You'll get proper, quoted shipping for the items you want. OR just message me here and we can work through the Arena - which is what I typically do anyway! :)

You can checkout of the store without any issues IF:
-You buy one item (not large/heavy) and live in the US (sorry! That's seriously the only scenario where shipping is correct)

Seriously I'll get you a shipping quote. Send me a list, send me whatever, I'll get them packed up and quote you from USPS.
International Buyers: Unless you're in Canada/Mexico, I literally cannot ship 1 Adult G1 pony for any less than $12.75. Prices become much more reasonable with ponies in groups of 3+ (usually around $4 per pony to ship, not $13!), so please keep that in mind. Willing to make deals on bulk lots as well. :)

Okay guys I am making a valid effort to get my behind back on the forums more! I miss y'all!! :hearts:

So, I wanted to show off some of the customs I've been making recently. If you know me on Facebook, I'm sure these are old news.

Most of what I do is make "Hasbro Inspired Customs". My jewelry mommies took 2nd place at the 2015 Pony Fair in Chicago in that category! However I do make OC's, the only area I'm not really breached into is sculpting. I do minor sculpting bits here and there (horns, wings, little thing like that) but nothing elaborate!

Here is the link to my Facebook page where I try to post my Etsy store links as well as photos of the ponies I make!
https://www.facebook.com/SunshinesMLPProjects

And now time for some pony spam! Hope you like them!
I will probably make a new commission thread in the sales forum here, but I am open for commissions pretty much any time.

Pony Corral / Accessories checklist
« on: April 14, 2015, 09:22:09 AM »
So my computer got corrupted by a virus and I lost all my files, including my home made list for brushes and ribbons. Now I'm in a bad place (very sad! :'() and I know there's an amazing person who has a Google doc that's so thorough it's insane but for whatever reason I can not remember who! I am sorry! :(

Can someone link me to that please? :)
Thanks!

Customs / I've returned - and as a Customizer!!
« on: February 08, 2015, 09:10:59 AM »
Hi all! I have recently been on a hiatus from the Arena (not for any particular reason, just have had a lot going on in my life and also have issues getting logged in via my cell phone to the Arena page)...

In the past year, when I was very active, I posted mostly on these custom boards to show off my Alternate Rehairs. I dabbled in customs only a bit. However, I have put full effort into now become a full on customizer! And I am very proud of myself :biggrin:

I specialize in Hasbro inspired customs - Mommies, Babies, Brothers, Alt. Poses, etc - that Hasbro never created themselves. I do generational swaps. I also work on OC's and have done a few totally out of the box characters for people. It is an honor being a commissioned artist in the community at this point and I owe a lot of my inspiration to these boards and our artists here (who I all still drool over :worshippy:)

I also now run a store especially for my custom and rehairs (which I do still make!)
https://www.etsy.com/shop/SunshinesMLPShoppe

I'd like to share a few examples of my work but I'm not sure Photobucket is cooperating with me today, so this is my Facebook page:

Introductions / Re-Introduction: I'm BACK! <3 Sunshine
« on: February 08, 2015, 08:51:39 AM »
Oh boys and girls,

I have been off the Arena page, well, since apparently November of last year. :sheepish:

There is no reason for it other than the fact that... well... many many things have been happening in my life. I wish I could say good things, but alas, not very good things. Ah well, let's not dwell on that.

I have been kicking myself to get back to the Arena page here because I LOVE all of you guys. I have MISSED you immensely. :hearts:

I have been spending this last year basically going from a rehairer to a full customizer. I have been extremely active on Facebook with my customs... and now run an Etsy store specifically for them. I still have my ecrater store as well for all non-customized ponies. The two stores together take a toll on my time, not to mention, how much time I now spend painting! :lol:

Anyway, I hope I can make more time to spend on the Arena now... I am not exaggerating when I've said I've been thinking about my dear friends from here and really missing you all. :biggrin:

:heart:

Customs / 'The Birdcage' Robin Williams inspired Custom
« on: August 22, 2014, 07:42:34 PM »
This custom is being RAFFLED OFF FOR CHARITY!!

Please see the thread in Custom Sales:
http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,359419.0.html

I’m sure everyone here knows about the sad and sudden passing of Robin Williams. His death, and the circumstances around it, touched me deeply. A friend of mine mentioned that she was thinking of making a custom in honor of Robin Williams, to raffle/auction off and donate the proceeds to charity. I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to do the same – and so, I present my custom pony, based on Robin Williams movie ‘The Birdcage’ –

This is Armand.

Armand is a tribute not only to what the movie ‘The Birdcage’ expressed and stood for – with the rainbow birdcage on one side, open, and tilted. We see a beautiful macaw flying up and away, freely. Down on the bottom leg, the second macaw sits alone, looking longingly at his partner. Both expressing joy and freedom, and also some sorrow, I hope that Armand appeals to a wide audience. Down on the front leg, in bright neon lights, the sign of ‘The Birdcage’ sits.
 
Armand has been hand painted, all symbols and eyes, and fully sealed. Mane and tail are fully rehaired with high quality nylon hair in bright red, yellow and blue. When they blend, they make a rainbow!

Again, please check out the thread above in Custom Sales and buy a ticket or 2 for the raffle. 100% of anything I make from this raffle is being donated to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention :heart:

I am working on a series of customs for myself that are a crossover between My Little Pony and Monster High characters!

The first two that I have completed are Robecca Steampony and Jane Hooflittle.

I hope you like them! :heart:

Pony Corral / Need some ID help on a whole bunch of accessories! :)
« on: July 25, 2014, 11:21:16 AM »
Hi all! :biggrin:

I have a whole bag of "randoms" as I call it, that I need to get sorted out. I believe that a majority of these are not MLP but, I'm not up to date on the newer accessories - and I know some of them ARE MLP, I just don't know what they came with... So, any help is appreciated!

*ALSO* If things are "NOTHING" - as in, they came with dollar store fashion packs for children back in the day or, are just... from something totally obscure and not worth keeping, PLEASE let me know, honestly. I need to get rid of some of this but I don't want to throw away anything that someone might potentially need - since I'm an accessories nut, I figure others are too, even for non pony stuff! ;)

First off, the group I believe is all MLP? Just not sure what these items go to?
visitors can't see pics , please register or login


This I'm not so sure about anything being MLP? I think the crown and small white flower barrette are Strawberry Shortcake?
visitors can't see pics , please register or login


This group again I'm not entirely sure if anything here is MLP? Or -to- anything? The pink tulle bow thingies are NOT the same as the ones for the Fancy Pants babies but I now have two of them and they are exactly the same...
visitors can't see pics , please register or login


Random assortment of brushes and combs - the big flat pink heart is a mirror...
visitors can't see pics , please register or login


I think some of these items are for Barbie? Like the Tutus? But the booties in the back are obviously to some larger-footed doll... and the gold cape, I really keep thinking it might be for a She-Ra doll? The plastic dresses are these "snap on" looking things, but I have no backs for any of them...
visitors can't see pics , please register or login


Random Blankets that need cleaning - a blue, a pink square with no holes in it, and a pink one with fringed edges
visitors can't see pics , please register or login


Lastly, some very small doll stuff and some diapers for some sort of baby doll (not for ponies)

Thank you so much for any info you guys can give me! :hearts:

Customs / My Little "Bambi"? :D
« on: June 07, 2014, 11:51:35 AM »
So...

Anyway. As the title states, I made a custom who reminds me of Bambi. I had a badly chewed Mirror Mirror, fixed the holes, sculpted some baby buck antlers and a tail, some hooves, FBR, new eyes, and then put some real fur over the mane plugs (since I forgot to fill those, lol)

This is how it turned out, I wanted the "essence of a real deer" so I wasn't going for like 'perfect painting' - and I know it's kind of weird with antlers and spots but, without fawn spots it didn't scream... "deer" to me, haha so, anyway, thanks for looking, I hope you like! I will be taking this to the fair with me, potentially - if he doesn't find a home beforehand! :biggrin:

So, I'm not the first bragger, or maybe I am! :biggrin: But I know that at least one of our participants got her ponies today from their rehair swap partner, and wanted to create a brag thread for all of us so we can post here and keep the brags together so we can all share in the glory of rehairs!! :biggrin: (Hope that's okay Mods, I promise there will be a brag itself very VERY soon! *wink*)

MLP Nirvana / Greek Minty/Chloe question
« on: June 02, 2014, 11:53:07 AM »

Hi all, I just added some Greeks to my herd and one of them was adult Minty/Chloe.

Now, I had known before that from Dollyhair saying that Daiquiri Ice was only used on a couple Greek ponies - that BABY Minty was one of them correct?

Well, I've been trying to figure out - did Mama Minty have WHITE hair or Daiquiri Ice hair? Because I can't find her on Strawberry Reef, it shows a picture on the MLP Wiki that looks white as white can be. And it's hard for me to tell when I just try to search Google Images for either Chloe, Minty, Baby Chloe or Baby Minty - to actually SEE this Daiquiri Ice light aqua color in photographs. I assume it's easily washed out by a camera flash or harsh lighting if faded... ?

Here's the thing though. My Mama Minty, for sure, had Daquiri Ice hair. I can see it on the butt of her tail stump (you know what I mean, inside her body) and also that the inside of her head plugs are very light aqua. There are streaks of it, like, you'd see a fading pink hair pony may have a few strands or streaks that were still a bit "pinker" than the others even though it faded? - So she's got a few hints of it in her actual mane and tail, which only her forelock is cut so she does have a full tail and most of her mane.

All the stitching inside looks identical to the other Greeks I have, and I'm struggling to take a photo that can pick up this SLIGHT hint of color, ARGGGG! In a "display pic" she looks like she has white hair. Up close on inspection it's obvious she doesn't.

So, summary: Was she released with this Daquiri Ice type hair color and it's just super prone to fading out on them (both Mama and Baby)? Or was she released with both?

Here's just the display pic of her, again it's not /really/ able to show this slight color - I mean, I can see it but... I'm not sure it's totally obvious, it may just look like her green body is reflecting through to make the color - but I've laid her against other Minty's and other white haired ponies, and hanks of white hair, both next to the tail stump and inside head wave (though I don't want to pull her tail OUT out, I just push her butt in to look at it, if that makes sense?) and it's clearly not WHITE.
