My idea for funding my pony habit *UPDATED* with links and pics

[Sunset]

Thanks everyone for your encouragement!

I have made a few more backdrops and have listed them and the original one on ebay.  I have a few more pieces of canvas left so I might add another 2-3 backdrops by the end of the week.  Depending on how this first batch goes, I might consider doing more in the future. (I need to determine whether it is cost effective to buy more supplies.)

Here is the link to my seller's page:

And here are pics of two of the new backdrops.  Thanks again for all of your support!

So I have been trying to think of some ways to help fund my pony collection and this is my current idea.  I just recently made a backdrop for photographing my ponies and I wondered if other people would be interested in buying something like this?  It was hand painted by me on a loose piece of 16x20 canvas.   This one is a very loose style since I was in a hurry to get it done but I can do more detailed work.  I was thinking of trying it out on Ebay starting at $10.

Here are some pictures with Peachy modeling.  Tell me what you think.

That's really pretty! Might work for a background for pony shelves too,

[MoonstoneFluff]

I love it!  I'd buy one!

[FairyDust]

Nicely done!  I think that's a great idea and your work is very pretty too.

I love it!!
I'd definitely buy one!! Multiple, given there were different styles!
Its gorgeous!!
And it's the perfect size to be the backdrop for my pony shelves!!
You are an amazing artist!!!

Thanks everyone!  I think if I have time later, I will see if I can't get a few simple ones done and up on ebay.

So here is a question.  What kind of backdrops would you all like to see for your ponies?  I have a few ideas of my own but I would like to see what you all think?

[hathorcat]

Thats amazing! I love the way you have done the perspective. If there are different styles I would certainly be interested

I like ones which are reminiscent of the pony world So like this one they would perhaps feature playsets within the backdrop etc.

I'd love something like that for the back of the pony shelves.  Have to measure though.  Different scenes for each level would be cool, but maybe too complicated?

[4Lindy]

What you did looks pretty good to me :-)

[FoolBornUnicorn]

What kind of backdrops would you all like to see for your ponies?

I love the one you have already made! 
I'd like to see a beach themed one too, for ponies like Mailsail and Beachball.

And one with the nursery in the background, for the babies!

That looks so cool, I think thats a great idea! I know I would use something like that
