Pony Corral / The problem of doubles...
« on: November 14, 2013, 08:04:07 AM »
I now totally get it. I have *cough* somehow accumulated doubles of many of my favorite ponies. I don't want to sell either because in terms of condition none are perfect and they each have their merits. I don't want a collection of perfect ponies anyway, as too much expense and responsibility. I currently have nowhere to display my collection and cannot justify keeping doubles. So, how on earth do I choose between them?! How do you choose between them?xo

Pony Corral / My sister presented me with a box of our old ponies...
« on: November 10, 2013, 01:33:24 AM »
What a lovely surprise!

I came down to stay with my sister for a couple of days and she surprised me with these :heart:

She said they had been at our parent's house and they passed them on to her a while ago. She is keeping the Apple Delight Family, Windy, Waverunner and Banana Surprise and has given all the rest to me to take care of.

Does anyone know what the big horse is? And the weird little thing on the right doing a salute?

Pony Corral / What breed do we think Brandy the Show Stable Dog is?
« on: November 06, 2013, 07:06:35 AM »
Apparently Wynona is a Border Collie. I'm thinking maybe Brandy is a Beagle or most likely a Bassett Hound, does anypony know?

I bought three lots of mixed ponies. Never again will I fail to read detailed seller feedback. There is almost no real reason for a seller to have negative feedback these days, I've been selling for a while and always manage to sort things out. If someone has said a seller has been rude then that's a massive warning sign because things may have gone wrong umpteen times before someone actually follows through and leaves negative feedback statement. :cloud:

I asked for a partial refund, she wants me to pay shipping to return them for a refund. I already cleaned them up a lot to assess whether or not they were in restorable condition but time after time I found permanent damage that I can't fix. Mainly great big cancer spots, a ripped neckline, ugly permanent stains, haircuts. I'd rather get a partial refund and pass them on as baits(they are all common ponies) to the community where I know there are people who can restore them or make them into something beautiful. I spent all weekend working on them. I really regret it now. Why didn't I think to just send them back straight away? I'm tearing my hair out.

This person has already blatantly lied in the description and when rejecting my request for a partial refund. Her statements are not even logical! All I can do is escalate and risk getting first negative feedback ever...

Looking at the photos again I think they may actually have been photoshopped. For example, Bluebelle has pink highlighter all over her face. Suds has a ripped neckline and a cut mane. I won't go on, it's gruesome

Here is specifically says 'hair all in tact(sic)' and Wind Whistler has a cut tail...

Hi there, I bought this plushie for (my words) ONLY 14.99 and I love it. Only problem is the balloons are the wrong colour and her eyes aren't quite right. I think I might hand embroider the balloons and eyes with fine embroidery thread. It won't be as neat as the machine embroidery but I think it might look OK if I go over teh whole cutie mark and just certain bits of the eyes. What do you think?

Arts & Crafts Corral / Flicker Flame
« on: October 29, 2013, 11:36:02 AM »
This is my first foray into digital art. I scanned in a drawing and coloured it in in MS paint  :blush:

Ahaha it took me about 2 days and it still looks pretty crap! I ran out of patience to finish all the edges.

I just downloaded a free heritage version of PS and will be looking for tutorials on YouTube so I never have to do this again  :biggrin:
Pony Love :hearts:

Pony Corral / Flocking Poll
« on: October 27, 2013, 01:05:21 AM »
I have my own opinion but I'd like to hear yours!

Personally I loathe it. It looks like the pony has grown mildew and I wince every time I see it. But then, I've never actually owned a minty flocked pony so there's still time  ;)

Hi guys,

I have a Starshine that is full of cancer and has a very faint symbol - I think it may have been glittery but I'm not sure. Anyway, I have a few Rainbow Ponies but I can't tell whether they are re-issues or early ones. I bought a parasol in the same lot that had the same colours in the hair as my other rainbows but Starshine's hair is different. The other colours are the same but the pink is a brighter, hotter shade of pink than the other Rainbows. Can anyone guess at what this might mean or have they come across this before?

Hi guys, I recently restored a Seashell with dirt, rust, scuffs, scrapes, bite marks, head body mismatch and no tail. She still has the bite marks but I de-rusted her, filed some of her ragged areas smooth and I sun faded her colour mismatch out a little. I also added a plait to hide some of the bite marks in her ear. And best of all Wyndeboo sent me a spare tail to put on her!

Only thing left to do is touch up her symbols but I'm kinda happy with her as she is now...
