'New Boy', by Tracy Chevalier. Love that writer (her most famous book is 'Girl with a pearl earring')

And also 'The botany of desire', by Michael Pollan. A plant's view of the world, truly interesting.

You people always say that, but my ponies just smell like plastic. Lol

Yes, sure.
But... G1 MLP plastic !
(G2 and G3 just smell like plastic, I agree with that)  ;)

G1 ponies have a typical smell indeed ! Don't you think, you vintage collectors ?
Sweet plastic scent. A lovely... pony scent !
(But not a proper 'fruit smell - on purpose')

Even now, it happens when you found an old dirty G1 : you wash it carefully and BAM : the smell's back !

Also, there're 2 versions of Majesty : purple and blue eyed.
I never knew which is which ? Playset ? MO ?

WOW!!!!!!
Where was THAT flea-market ?????
HUGE congrats ! Baby Sapphire is such a wonderful find !!!!! And all the others are lovely too !
So nice !

No, you're right, that's a nice idea, indeed.
And, as italian Sumbeam is not really a hard-to-find, you could consider to have more than one too. One repainted in gold, one with the blue-green tone, and another left as found. Could be interesting.
(That's the Colruyt brand. Very nice for grooming ponies ! Good for toilet too ;-P   Wallonne, oufti ! And you ?)

Good idea, Ponindependenza !
Yes, that should be the very same paint !

Ha ! That is a good question, RoseNoire... What to do indeed...
I really don't know... I personnally never ever re-paint a symbol, part for this reason. But I suppose golden colour is the most accurate choice, even if not the most commonly seen.
Why do you want to paint it, in fact ?

(By the way, RoseNoire, I believe we use the same toilet paper, hahaha ! )

You're welcome !

Yes, but I believe it must have been gold originally. Metallic gold, I assume. Maybe something like the metallic silver on glory and Moonie's symbols. But golden.
And it faded this way... Blue-green... You can clearly see this is not the original colour (I mean she didn't come out of the factory this colour) , but a faded shade, but at least, you can see the shape more clearly.

I think I never saw an italian Sunbeam with unfaded symbol, when I think of it...

This is the most distinct italian symbol I have. Other girls are faded like yours.

Must has been gold once.

Hope it helps.

Pony Corral / Re: 'Reboot' G4 poses names ?
« on: June 26, 2018, 06:14:02 AM »
Both on the same image, we could call it the 'French Cancan' pose !  :lol:

Serioulsy, yeah that's really confusing. So that's why I think it's important to name every pose.

The 'Cantering pose' sounds good for this one.
As it's basically the same except for which leg is up, maybe we could say the 'left cantering', and the 'right cantering' for the 2 above ?

Pony Corral / 'Reboot' G4 poses names ?
« on: June 25, 2018, 06:39:46 AM »
Hi everyone,

Well, I was working on the descriptions of my unicorns for the website and I came with a problem, with all the new poses of the G4 'reboot' (the new molds).

With G1, we had lovely names for all the pony poses (collector pose, standing pose, proud pose, shy pose, and so on... you see what I mean).
G2, G3 and even G4 didn't really need that, as there were few different pony poses actually.

BUT : That not true anymore with the G4 'reboot' and it makes me wonder : Do we already have pose names for them ?

And if not... Why wouldn't we play that game ?  :)

Here are my propositions (For unicorns, as I have unicorns only) :

This one is an easy one, it's the 'standing pose' :

I would call this one the 'conversation pose' :

This one, the 'walking pose' (even if it's a bit different than walking) :
visitors can't see pics , please register or login


The 'proud pose' :
visitors can't see pics , please register or login


And the 'waiting pose' :

What do you think ?

Do you have other ideas ?
