It's hard to explain for me so I'll give you this video.  She even works on a pony while explaining it so she can give you pointers on where to start and how big/small the plug should be.  Hope it helps. :)

Customs / A Few Quick Questions...
« on: February 28, 2012, 09:03:39 AM »
1. Why do you water down the paint before painting the pony?  I never really saw the point in that...
2. I use FabriTac to glue the hair down, but it dries so quickly that it gets difficult to spread it over the hair, so not only do I miss some of the plugs, it also pulls the hair out with it.  Can someone maybe suggest another glue to use?  Or at least a better way of applying it? (I spread the glue on a Q-tip, then stick it into the head and run it over the plugs.  It worked the first time with no problems, but it got difficult when I was working on my second project.)

Thanks for any help.  Also, sorry if this is in the wrong forum.  I don't know if there's a forum/sub-forum specifically for questions or not.

Edit:  Whoops.  I just found out that the Pony Corral forum is for Q & A.  Can this be moved?

Welcome to the Arena - I bet you'll find something to like about all the different generations of ponies in time.  :)

I almost have; the only exception is G3.5, but that's probably because there were only seven ponies rereleased several times...  Before, I used to think I'd never like G1s, but now I see just how beautiful they are!  I love Moondancer most; she's my G1 Grail, and I'm doing a G4 custom of her now.  :biggrin:

Wanted! / Seeking Mostly G2s...
« on: February 27, 2012, 11:28:08 AM »
I love the G2 ponies, but the only one I've ever been lucky enough to own is Sky Skimmer.  So, if you have any G2s for sale, feel free to post them here!  The ones at the top of my list are: 

Golden/Silver/Copper Glow
Satin Splash
Bride (My G2 Grail)
Jolly

Ponies I'm seeking from other generations:

G1:
-Twilight
-Moondancer (G1 Grail)
-Gusty
-Glory
-Sparkler
-Surprise
-Heart Throb
-Medley
-Firefly
-Bow Tie
-Applejack
-Posey
-Cherries Jubilee
-So Soft Cupcake
-So Soft Crumpet
-All Big Brother Ponies
-All Mountain Boy Ponies

G3:
-Bow Tie (G3 Grail)
-Pumpkin Tart
-Abra-ca-dabra
-Spring Parade
-Blue Mist
-Finger Paints
-Cupcake
-Super Long Hair Dream Blue

G4:
-Diamond Rose (MIB only)
-Cherry Pie (MIB only)
-Star Swirl
-Sweetie Swirl
-Starbeam Twinkle
-Sky Wishes

I'd prefer these in minty condition, but I am on a low budget right now, so if they only come cheap in bad condition, I will restore them.  No problem.  For the G4 ponies though, I'd like them to be as close to mint as possible...

Thanks so much for you help everyone.  I'm sorry for the long post (and for possibly sounding rude...).

I'm a seventeen year old waiting to go to college, and collecting/customizing ponies while doing so (I'm out of high school due to mid-year graduation).

My first MLP was Sky Skimmer from G2, although I didn't figure out she was an MLP until several years later when I did some research.  When I was about eight or so, I took a HUGE interest in G3s until middle school, then stopped and never wanted anything to do with them again.  Then along comes MLP:FiM.  I got hooked, began collecting all the figures mint in box, then became interested in the entire franchise as a whole again.  I'm here to stay too.  What the G3 commercials used to say is absolutely true:  "You'll always be in my heart."  :)

Other than ponies though, I like video games.  Mostly Nintendo with some Sega and Valve.  I also like studying math and science occasionally (even though I'm not good at either of them).

So... yeah.  Nice to meet you all and be a part of this nice community.  :lol:
