Title: Monochrome Swap: Complete! You guys are awesome!!!!
Post by: kaoskat on March 22, 2012, 07:49:22 PM: Hi! Do you love those pretty one color ponies that pop up on occassion? Their simple beauty and lovely shades? Well, then this is the swap for you!! This swap is all about monochrome ponies! Your partner picks a color and you design a pony using only that color in different shades! Please read ALL the rules thoroughly as you will be held to them. If you think you can handle it, PM me and join!

Dates:
Sign ups: April 1 - April 10
Partners assigned before or on: April 15
Progress pictures required: May 15
Final check in: June 1 - June 8
Shipping: June 15

Please remember to always check your organizer's feedback before joining a swap.
kaoskat's feedback (http://mlparena.com/mlp/index.php?action=trader&id=7539)

Rules:
1. You must have 10 positive Arena feedback and no negative Arena feedback.
2. You must have been an Arena member for at least 6 months before sign ups are over.
3. You must have pictures of at least 3 of your most recent customs to show the quality of your work. This is a skill based swap and I need to know where to put you.
4. Ship on time! I realize real life issues come up sometimes. If this happens, I want to know about it as soon as you realize you will be late.
5. No shipping early! I will be withholding addresses until shipping time to prevent this. The exception will be after final check in and your partner is ready to ship as well. I don't want anyone disappointed in this swap and with so many people going MIA lately, it's best for everyone to hold off until we are sure their partners haven't disappeared.
6. Be prepared with progress pics at progress date.
7. Send me pictures of your completed custom before you ship. I want to know your custom is complete before it goes out.
8. Let me know right away when you ship your pony and when you receive one.
9. Do not let anyone know who your partner is. It is secret.
10. Extras are not required, but are welcome. However, do not go overboard with these. This is about the customs. A small treat/gift or 2 is fine and good but not too much. After all, you worked hard on the custom, it should be the most exciting part!
11. This swap includes all generations of ponies (G1, G2, G3, G3.5, and G4), if there are any of these you do not like, include that in your form. Do not use any fakies unless your partner requests it.
12. You must be in no more than 2 other swaps (total of 3).
13. The title of your PM should be Rainbow Of Color, so I know you read the rules. If the title of your pm is not right, you will not be added to the sign up list.
14. PM the sign up form to me (kaoskat) by the sign up deadline. I will do my very best to get partners out on or before the 15th.
15. You must check in with pictures for the final check in 1 week before shipping. If you do not check in, you will not be receiving a fart.
16. KEEP YOUR SHIPPING RECEIPTS! You need to be able to produce proof of shipping when asked. You need to hold onto your receipt until your partner confirms that they have received their pony. I also highly recommend delivery confirmation for those not shipping internationally.
17. IF AT ANYTIME YOU DO NOT ABIDE BY ANY OF THESE RULES, YOU WILL BE PULLED FROM THE SWAP. This includes, but is not limited to, missing check ins and sharing partners. Make sure you are familiar with the rules before you sign up. You are expected to follow them.

Swap Specific Rules:
1. No colors other than different shades of 1 of the 3 colors selected by your partner is allowed with the exception of eye whites. Eye whites may be white. NO BLACK OR WHITE (except eye whites) IS ALLOWED ON YOUR fart UNLESS THAT IS YOUR PARTNER'S CHOSEN COLOR! This includes hair blends.
2. Choose ONE of the 3 colors given. This is a Monochrome Swap. Do NOT include all 3 chosen colors on your pony.
3. Choose one of the themes from your partner's list to help with your design. If you are having trouble with your partner's list, message me ASAP for suggestions or I can ask your partner for more options or examples of their current choices.

Form:
Arena Name:
Real name and shipping address:
Email address (for contacting you off forum if we need to):
Link to feedback:
Links to pictures of at least 3 of your most recent customs (more than one image if each is welcome) {Please send pictures that show off the qualities you intend to possibly use on your custom. Sending me a bunch of ponies that are heavily sculpted but don't show off your painting skills when you only plan to paint or showing off ponies with no sculpting when you plan to sculpt is not very useful for pairing you up. Please choose what you feel are the best of your recent ponies displaying the qualities that would be useful for this swap.}:
Will you ship internationally?
Which generation(s) would you like to recieve?
Which generation(s) do you prefer to customize?
Is there any generation you do not want to recieve?
Is there anything you do not want on your custom?
Is there anything you favor on your custom?
Do you have any allergies?
Do you smoke, have pets, or any other things we should be aware of in case your partner has allergies?
What other swaps are you in?
Please choose and list 3 color options for your pony:
1.
2.
3.

Please list between 5 and 10 interests/likes that you feel would look good in your chosen color(s):
1.
2.
3.
4.

Nope. Not unless your partner's chosen color is white. The body must be a shade of the chosen color.

http://mlparena.com/mlp/index.php/topic,291268.0.html (http://mlparena.com/mlp/index.php/topic,291268.0.html)

I realize my two "monochrome" ponies don't count because they both use silver/pearl for the design. Everything else is monochrome though :\

Post by: EmberBright on March 23, 2012, 06:05:30 AM: This is so tempting! I wish I knew for sure when were moving. Shouldn't get in the way if I'm organized, anyway. I'll think about it, and I'll only sign up if I can be sure I won't be a huge pain in your butt! :)

Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Gauging Interest
Post by: hyenacub on March 24, 2012, 10:02:58 PM: I look forward to the brags from this! : D Though I might point out that there aren't "shades" of white. The second you add another color to it, it ceases to be white. XD Also I might bring up...if the color is "gray"...everything except pure white and pure black would be allowed yes? unless there's a "light gray" and a "Dark gray"...

Sorry for the rambling. My brain decided it wouldn't let my fingers shut up. XD
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Gauging Interest
Post by: kaoskat on March 24, 2012, 10:12:47 PM: There are shades of white. Have you not looked at dollyhair lately? :silly: And for gray all shades/tints of gray are allowed yes.
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Gauging Interest
Post by: Maniah on March 25, 2012, 01:17:39 AM: But shades of white in paint. You have to add other colors to the white to get those shades. Then you have super pastelles. I could do a rainbow colors pony by using white that was just barely hinted each color.

Not that I can join this swap ... I'm just tossing in my two cents.
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Gauging Interest
Post by: Tinker on March 25, 2012, 03:27:05 AM: I have mass love for monochromatic themes. :heart: I'll have to see where I am in my other swaps before I sign up.

And no, no pastel rainbow ponies, the colors must still look over all white. Which means you choose 1 color to add (I recommend going with off white or light light gray) and go with that. What I actually suggest doing is going to the "white" section of your paint store and buying the various colors of white in that section. Can you really not understand how this works?

Yes! Pearl white, matte white. glossy white, shimmery white... um... textured white... not sure how you'd make the eyes not creepy, but this would be so interesting! Love Kala's ponies using this.

I am too sick to competently assign partners at the moment so they will likely come before the planned 15th but I make no promises as to how soon.

Now, do not forget there should be NO black and NO white on your pony anywhere unless that was your partner's chosen color. The only white allowed is the whites of the eyes.

It might be a secret swap as it's forbidden to say who our partner is. In my mind this means that the person you're making a custom for and the one making one for you are 2 different person :) It's more funny this way too btw!

Post by: pop-girl on April 06, 2012, 06:57:07 AM: I have the most spectacular idea! I'm not sure I can fit everything on a G4 so I may switch up my plan and make a G3 instead.

Does anyone know where I can get glow-in-the-dark hair?

What color, how much and how long? I have some leftover of both green and white (I think) but one end became a bit frizzy (but that's on a 1 meter long hank so it might be ok?)
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: pop-girl on April 06, 2012, 07:05:22 AM: I didn't realize it came in colors. :blush: I was planning on dying it green so green is perfect. I'll probably blend it with a couple other colors so it doesn't need to be a complete hank.
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: Malancaiwen on April 06, 2012, 07:12:18 AM: It's more of a yellowish green, not a true green (not like the cup in your avatar for example) and I've never tried to dye it. Does polypropylene dye well?
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: pop-girl on April 06, 2012, 07:15:03 AM: As long as it's green enough to qualify as green I think it will be OK. ;) I'll PM you.

It varies. In some cases it is but in most cases it isn't. If I remember right, there's only 1 pair because of skill level and preferences. Most of you are quite mixed up. :silly:

Pony done.

Okay, well, to be fair, only the first pony is done.

Post by: JSplit on April 09, 2012, 07:24:06 PM: Allllmost all done with my animal swap custom then I can actually get started on my monochrome ideas... or at least start seeing if they might actually work...
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: Malancaiwen on April 10, 2012, 02:06:33 AM: Well ... hair and bait should be on their way now ... At least I (nearly) have the design done :p
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: wiccanpony1 on April 10, 2012, 05:50:21 AM: Bait sorted,hair ordered:) I need to head out for some more paints x

Post by: fiwen30 on April 10, 2012, 10:14:53 AM: For once I actually have all the supplies I need to hand! Started the very first stage of painting :)
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: butterflybuttons on April 10, 2012, 08:08:28 PM: I had my design all worked out, then I saw something yesterday that inspired me with one of my partners themes that I'd ruled out.

Got my bait and hair picked out.

Because they are all crazy pop. Or fickle. Or both.

Because everyone knows we're terrible at customizing compared to you so we must make up for it with quality AND quantity.

Post by: Raindrop on April 11, 2012, 08:26:09 PM: I think everyone's just having so much fun with ideas for this swap. I've already started painting my bait, but I found another bait in my box as I was digging around and had a question for everyone--how do you feel about Hasbro-style fakie baits? I know we aren't supposed to use them unless our partner doesn't mind; I'm just wondering if anyone has considered using one of the sparkle G3 ones (example of a custom using one of these in my siggie).

Me too!! This little gal is going to need at least 4 seperate layers of paintwork for what I have planned!!! I **must** be crazy... or think my partner is completely awesome and therefore deserving of such an awesome pony! :heart:

Post by: Malancaiwen on April 13, 2012, 07:07:11 AM: I got some hair already :D Still need to order some more to make a nice blend!
I got my design all planned! I like it very much!
I will be trying my hands at a new painting technique for me, I just hope it will turn out ok as my whole design depends on it >.<
I wish I could show you my sketch, I like my lineart very much! (yes self satisfaction is very important to me :p)

Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: Malancaiwen on April 16, 2012, 04:26:18 AM: So, I'm finally back from my school trip and I found one of the 2 baits I took along that I had completely forgotten! So ... like many other people, that'll mean 2 customs in my box ^^

Post by: jupiternwndrlnd on April 16, 2012, 11:41:13 AM: i got my pony rehaired...then stared at her for a week, realizing that one of the colors i chose leans out of the original color-family.....so I just got another color in....im hoping the re-rerooting doesnt take me too long. ugh.
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: ristvak on April 16, 2012, 01:44:45 PM: I found a friend with a good bait supply and she has everything I want =D Now I just have to get her to mail them out....

Post by: Raindrop on April 16, 2012, 07:09:32 PM: Oooo, my base coat is all done, I have some new crystals, and my hair order just arrived! I'm not sure I'll want to send this one off when she is done.... **runs off to plan out final details of symbol**
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: NoDivision on April 19, 2012, 08:18:16 AM: I'm still at ground zero with my "actual" pony. My extra has been done since like the 3rd day of the swap, haha.
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: jupiternwndrlnd on April 19, 2012, 09:55:42 AM: got the wrong color yanked out of my reroot and got the new color in its place. i am hoping it looks right :/ but then, my favorite part...PAINTING! :D
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: kaoskat on April 19, 2012, 01:27:56 PM: I've got the airbrushing part done! I hope I can pull off what I have planned!

Post by: RevRuby on April 19, 2012, 02:10:02 PM: i'm done everything but hair and glossing the eyes. i guess this is a swap i'll be making extras for cause i feel guilty over how easy it was. but my partner is so easy to make for, her likes really went well with my skills.
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: PrincessOfDarkness on April 19, 2012, 04:36:47 PM: I have my bait, I have my design.... I just had very little hair that would work!! So I'm still waiting for my hair order to arrive, its been 2 weeks so I hope it gets here soon! :)

Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: WeepingPiano on April 19, 2012, 10:11:59 PM: I have both baits picked out, now I just need time off from work so I can make some decent headway (the other assistant got fired so I am the only one left, and I will be working 2-10 or 2-11 shifts for the next five days straight...)
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: butterflybuttons on April 20, 2012, 01:06:28 AM: I want to get out my airbrush tonight and get that part done.

I still keep going between two designs, one is something I'm very comfortable with, the other is something I've not done before. Decisions, decisions!

Post by: pop-girl on April 22, 2012, 02:02:31 AM: I pulled an all nighter on this one but I think she's going to be one of my best! All I need is for her hair to arrive and I can finish. I really hope my partner loves her as much as I do. :)

Post by: fiwen30 on April 22, 2012, 04:38:44 AM: Wow, you're all steaming ahead! I've got a fair bit of paint work done, finding it tricky not to add in little details and highlight in other colours though! :drunk:

Wow this will be interesting! I'd never have taken black because except matte/shiny I'd have no idea what to do without it turning grey :/

I've been unemployed for the last month though so my dolly hair order never happened *sighs* Which also means I haven't really made ay decisions on which colors to use, but I should have enough on hand to make do *fingers crossed*
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: PrincessOfDarkness on May 08, 2012, 05:14:14 PM: I re-airbrushed my bait :) I much prefer the way it looks now - I am hoping that the hair colours will look awesome against the body now, instead of the mish mashed colour disaster it was before. I also think I may have changed my symbol idea.
Again.

Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Partners Sent!!!!
Post by: butterflybuttons on May 08, 2012, 10:43:20 PM: Once the eyes are done it really brings the pony to life! And I just love blending multiple colours (or shades in this case) together.

Post by: PrincessOfDarkness on May 10, 2012, 10:21:54 PM: I have airbrushed my bait, re-rehaired and mapped out the design for her paintwork.
And somehow added sculpting.
Despite doing my no sculpting dance when I planned the pony originally.
And I LOVE the way she is looking :D

What kind of extras would my partner like *thinks* could everyone maybe answer with a thing or two that would make you happy to find with your pony? Hopefully my partner will answer too.

Post by: ristvak on May 16, 2012, 12:49:33 PM: Kaoskat... is anyone making a chicken themed custom? Cause I think a chicken check in would have been hilarious XD

*stretches* I got ref pics for my symbols but I'm still deciding on what shade of [insert color here] to use...

::edit:: and my pony is done! Well... Ok not really but she's painted and sealed and I picked the hair color =D home stretch! (especially since I'm one of those weird people that enjoys rehairing lol )

Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: All Chickens have arrived! Carry on!
Post by: ristvak on May 19, 2012, 03:26:15 PM: Yep it's going good! Just a mixture of using a diff hair then I usually do (polypropylene) and an oddly stiff bait and it's just the right combination for a rawr moment lol.

Good old' pop tool always come through for me!

Still only about 1/4 of the way done of course, but it's farther than I was this morning. I blame my mom, she got a new washer and dryer today and i (being the only one she knows with a truck) got the call to come help lol
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: All Chickens have arrived! Carry on!
Post by: Raindrop on May 22, 2012, 04:46:05 PM: I really need to buckle down and rehair tonight. I'm eager to see how my hairblend works.
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: All Chickens have arrived! Carry on!
Post by: DevlishSmooch on May 22, 2012, 04:57:04 PM: My pony is painted, rehaired, and currently at the spa getting a conditioning treatment. Then she will have her hair styled and "make-up" applied, and be done!
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: All Chickens have arrived! Carry on!
Post by: butterflybuttons on May 23, 2012, 12:07:23 AM: I need to get my butt into gear and just finish it.

Post by: PrincessOfDarkness on May 23, 2012, 02:31:14 AM: I've almost finished :D A few touch ups here and there, sealing, then her hair needs a good wash and style add some embellishments and voila!

This. What are you doing? I get excited when it's tail time because it means one easy step and rehairing is done.
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: All Chickens have arrived! Carry on!
Post by: fiwen30 on May 23, 2012, 09:42:06 AM: Oh, it's not the putting the tail in that's the problem, it's making the blooming thing... There's so many colours, and I'd like it to look individually striped like the mane, rather than large sections of colour. Don't think that's going to happen unless I lay out every lock though? Unless there's an easier way that I'm missing?
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: All Chickens have arrived! Carry on!

I might have a suggestion ^.^
When I'm trying to do that, I thread my wire through the tail hole and then add the first section of colour. Then I twist tie that bit of hair and push it off to one side. Then I do all the other colours in the same way. Then when its time to pull the tail through, I pull the wire in so the tail is 'tight' against the butt, I get the colours lined up exactly how I want them to look and pull. It can take some practice and sometimes it takes more than one attempt to get it right...
Hope that helps!!

Also, if your partner's name has "Final check in complete/Custom Complete" and you've sent a pic of your completed custom, you are cleared to ship. Please poke me so I can get you an address.

Does this mean the person im making a pony for is the person making one for me? I was just wondering lol x

Post by: kaoskat on June 06, 2012, 12:44:30 PM: No, that's not what it means. But you get cleared to ship when the person you are making for has finished their pony so that everyone gets a pony.

Post by: kaoskat on June 08, 2012, 07:07:01 AM: Ok guys this is important! Check your status and make sure it is right! Today is the last day for check ins! I still have a few I need pics from. Please get those to me asap! I'll be messaging people I haven't heard from today to remind them! I believe there are just 2.
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Final Chickens NOW! Need pics!!!
Post by: Eviecorn on June 08, 2012, 09:15:09 AM: Honestly, I am kinda really glad I had to restart. My new one is looking sooo much better than the first one. I'm going to hate letting this one go!
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Final Chickens NOW! Need pics!!!
Post by: kaoskat on June 08, 2012, 03:18:19 PM: Yay! I have officially heard from everyone, just waiting on a a few more pics but everyone is on track. Everyone will likely be cleared to ship shortly. For those who have not sent me pics of a completed custom, please remember I need completed pics before you ship. This is for your benefit more than mine. I want to make sure you have pics to show off after the pony gets to her new home.

Post by: starbritesprinkles on June 13, 2012, 08:18:13 PM: I'm shipping tomorrow. Anyone who's a friend on Facebook knows I've had a dramatically eventful couple of weeks. So I just finished up her hair tonight and will take pics and ship in the morning.
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Final Chickens NOW! Need pics!!!
Post by: kaoskat on June 14, 2012, 09:39:29 AM: I was trying to figure out why my partner's pony was taking so long to arrive. So then I check my receipt and discover it didn't go first class, it went parcel post! Dang it! If I'd have realized that I'd have upgraded to priority! Clearly I spend far too much time at the post office. They don't even ask what I want anymore, they just ship my packages the cheapest way (usually always first class, but then it defaults to parcel post when it's too heavy). I wish they would tell me when it shifts from first class to parcel post though so that even if I don't upgrade, I'm at least prepared.
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Final Chickens NOW! Need pics!!!
Post by: ristvak on June 14, 2012, 12:20:23 PM: Hate when that happens! I just mailed off some cookies & I said " I bet those are too heavy for first class, so let's do priority" *rages on parcel post*

I mean honestly, it usually less than a $2 difference too. Why does PP even exist?
Title: Re: Monochrome Swap: Final Chickens NOW! Need pics!!!
Post by: DevlishSmooch on June 14, 2012, 06:47:26 PM: I mailed my pony out...*checks reciept*... yesterday. EDD 6/15. I can't wait until she arrives - she was SO hard to let go. *sniffsniff* :cry:
