Trader & Shipping Support / Beware Etsy seller: WholesaleCorner
« on: June 05, 2012, 07:23:59 PM »
I placed an order with this person about 2 weeks ago for a set of flat-backed crystals. The item has still not been shipped and seller is ignoring all my messages.
Reading through the feedback, it appears to be a common problem with the seller.

Filed a 'not shipped' report with Etsy and waiting to see what happens.
I've ordered another set of crystals from a different seller, who have been in contact with me.

Ugh, I need these for commissions.
I'm a little annoyed.

Be aware ponyfriends.

Customs / G4 Big Macintosh :wip 1 & 2:
« on: May 25, 2012, 06:07:19 PM »
I decided to make a Big Mac for myself.
Why?
I had a spare Applejack and my Applejak and Applebloom need thier big brother.

So obviously he started life as Applejack but with a little sculpting started to look more like himself.

Customs / Cath Kidston Pony: A Birthday Gift
« on: May 23, 2012, 06:09:19 PM »
This pony is a surprise birthday gift for one of my best friends.
My friend simply adores the Cath Kidston collection, thier patterns are so sweet and she owns just about everything you can think of with the designs on.
But not a pony.

Not yet anyway.
This girl doesn't have a name, she's simply the CK pony.
I'm leaving naming her up to my friend.

Anyway.
Technical bit.

She was given a FBR in Citadel Acrylic paint and each of her polka dots was loving handpainted on (while I was watching Star Wars)
She has been rehaired with 4ply white wool to keep to the material feel of her design. This was the VERY first time I've ever used wool for pony hair, it's something I will use again!
She has four fabric roses pinned into her hair and tail.
She was sealed with Mod Podge and an acrylic glaze on her eyes.

Pictures!

She is marked with my name and 'Happy Birthday' under her hooves.

Overall I couldn't be more thrilled with how this girl turned out. She is a very special pony for one of the very special people in my life.

Customs / How do you keep your G4's heads turning?
« on: May 21, 2012, 05:54:53 PM »
So I've got a bunch of G4's to do and I have a problem.
I really want them to have turning heads when they're done.
Thing is I have to remove the plugs (easy enough) and I can glue them back into the neck but I have to cut away some plastic inside the head to get the the hair.
Then of course the heads don't stay on properly.

Help?
It would mean alot to me if I could keep them turning!

Customs / I need new paints, recommendations?
« on: May 20, 2012, 08:50:58 AM »
So lately I've noticed my paints are starting to split and no amount of mixing will save them.
They are old and were fairly cheap do I wasn't expecting them to last forever. So in light of this I find myself needing new paint.

Any recommendations on what I should look for?
Please bare in mind in based in the UK so certain craft stores don't exist for me :D

Thanks.

Wanted! / RJ wants your Fashion Styles.
« on: May 14, 2012, 01:44:23 PM »
These are near IMPOSSIBLE to find anywhere near me.
I've looked and looked until I was blue in the face, all I keep finding is Twilight and RD.

Please, fellow ponylovers.
Help me out here.

I need:
Fluttershy - Possibly found
Pinkie Pie - FOUND!
Applejack
Rarity
Luna and Celestia. - FOUND <3

I don't care if they're unboxed (I'd prefer them that way to keep shipping down) and I'm not fussed on their accessories.

Thank you.

These ladies were born from my love for Star Wars.
They are both sporting the faction symbols from the Old Republic.

Imperial Empress.
FBR in black with red gradients.
She is rehaired in a custom blend of Pomme de Amour and Firebird nylon.

Republic Knight.
FBR in white with blue gradients.
She is rehaired in a custom blend of Water Nixie and Hyacinth nylon.

Both ladies have been sealed in Mod Podge.

Customs / Dremel Tool for Sanding!
« on: April 28, 2012, 01:07:23 PM »
So I've recently begun sculpting on ponies (I will post WIP pictures soon so keep a look out).
And while I'm really proud of how it all looks I know I will need to sand the heck out of the sculpted parts to get them nice and smooth for painting.

I know a few people on here use Dremel tools and I have one (my dad's LOL) but I'm not sure what size bit or grain for the sanding I should be using?

Any help, I really don't want to screw this up and sandpaper wont work properly.

« on: April 05, 2012, 06:22:42 AM »
Went to my local ASDA on recommendation of Hathorcat to see if i could pick up a Glimmer Wing Rarity for my friend.
Well I found her.

And Rainbow Dash and Ploomette too!
I couldn't resist, I had to buy them all for myself!

They were on offer as well, so I got Rainbow Dash FREE!
So happy.

Wanted! / Wanted: Glimmer Wings Rarity!
« on: March 29, 2012, 05:58:03 PM »
She's for a gift!
Unfortunately Hasbro's has once again ignored us UK collectors and the glimmer wings are unavailable here (to my knowledge)

Please help :D

I'd prefer her boxed with all her accessories if possible.
Please message me with details, thanks for looking!

Customs / Restoring: Tux (Pic Heavy) New pics added!
« on: March 08, 2012, 11:38:48 AM »
I was super excited to start this project and even more so when I saw Tux in person. Described as 'baity' he was far from.

His tail was rusted and he had a mohawk. Other than that. PERFECT. No rubs to eyes or symbols and no ailments or chews!
This is Tux as he came to me (minus his tail, I'd already ripped it out at this point)
Aside from being really dirty he was marvellous.

So I gave him a damn good scrub and removed all his old hair. I do love how easily hair comes out of G1's.
Much better now.

Since I'm still awaiting the shipment containing his new hair I had to make do with just adding his 'streak' for now. This is White Witch.

It will be trimmed and styled along with the rest of his mane when it's in.
I'll update this page with more pictures as I progress with his restoration. The of course I will reunite him with Satin 'n' Lace. <3

All finished and finally reunited with his beloved Satin! I was going to curl his hair but I quite like it long and straight.

Yay!
