Wanted! / ISO Daddy Berrytown - UK Buyer
« on: June 27, 2020, 12:32:33 PM »
The holy grail that is my boy.
I've been out of the collecting scene for 6+ years so seeing his price hike was a shot to the stomach x_x But regardless, I'm now starting my search for the father of my Berrytown Family.
Happy to have quite faded hair (my other two do), some body marks/ grime etc. No hair cuts though! Unless it's not noticeable.
I'm looking for a good to very good quality pony, but tbh I'll consider any at this point  ^^;

Cheers!

Pony Corral / Need help on pricing G3 fair exclusives and rares (?)
« on: May 02, 2019, 10:00:47 AM »
Hey y'all!
I've been hit with a pretty big vet bill as I came home on tuesday to a house bunny looking at my sadly with her front paw dangling. Turns out she had multiple fractures and the whole arm was amputated yesterday. Fun times and big vet bill!
So I'm looking to work out a pricing on some stuff below to help lessen the blow.

Peacock pony, only pricing I can see on ebay is £100, so I'm estimating about £80?

Woah, what a wild ride! I've actually been part of the MLP arena for 8 years! And in that time I've loved seeing pony art and the other wonderful drawings that are posted here. Well I've now finished my 3 years at uni and will very soon be presented with a degree in illustration! But considering my final show is now over, I'm calling myself a professional now ;]  :art:



First off, I have a website! Woah cool yeh :D
KeepdrawingCharlie.com
Where all my super professional stuff is.




So now, onto the art that I've been slaving away at for the past year!

This is Space Bunnies!
'A group of bunnies are surprised to see a rabbit in the night sky, so they zoom into space to explore the moon, and encounter some strange goings on up there!'

Space Bunnies was written and illustrated by myself. I used graphite and watercolours and it took a long long time to make!
I've had 50 copies printed, and a good chunk of them were pre-orders that helped to pay for printing!
More pictures can be seen here!

My second project for the year was another childrens book, although this time aimed at slightly older children-

My Best Friend, Dragon
'Ember and her best friend, Dragon get up to all sorts of shenanigans! But at the end of the day they know they'll be there for each other, because that's what friends are for.'

I kept the style a lot more simpler on this project due to time constraints. The media used are pencil lines and digital colouring.
And this one is totally my favourite drawing!-

yeh bunkbeds :D

There are other illustrations on my website so I'll not bore you any further and actually show you some pony stuff!

My OC! Her name is Fabriano, after a paper type I enjoy using, hehe

And this is a fanart for a PMV editor called MrDeLoop

Oh! And a lilac alpaca and a dwarf camel that were commissioned for a birthday present, something about it being an in joke between two sisters? No clue, but I was more than happy to illustrate it!

Seriously, it was a lot of fun to draw.


So I'll end this art dump with a small 'I'm open for commissions!' Because I'm moving back home and will need to find a job to keep me going and pay for me to move out of my family home and into a place with my boyfriend! Yehh!

Customs / Blindbags into wedding gift!
« on: April 30, 2015, 09:05:14 AM »
visitors can't see pics , please register or login


Finished! So pleased with them! The symbol on the boy is the company he manages, and the girl's symbol is her illustration logo :]
The bride loved them and thanked me in the morning before everyone headed back home, so pleased!

Info on their creation below!




I really wanted to post this progress somewhere, but since my friend follows my art stuff on fb and tumblr, here is the perfect place for it! (And to ask for constructive criticism as I go!)

Okay, so the wedding is early June, and I have a month until I finish my degree, so I'm not sure why I'm making myself do this as well.. but I'm transforming two blindbags into ponysonas of the bride and groom!
I've done one of these before, when I made my boyfriend into a pony here..

Which I was super happy with, and still like (it's been dropped a few times!)

So onto to ponies!

Our pegasus couple..

Flutters I'm keeping yellow, but I'll re-paint thunderbutt or w/e his name is, as they like bright colours!
Also, bonus that the offcuts of flutters perfectly compliment what I wanted to sculpt for boy pony! As he wears his hair in a pony tail, flutters tail tip works great, and her hair cut fits wonderfully onto his tail!

First round of sculpting is up next! :D and flutters still needs the paint in her feathers picking out...



Update 1 yehhh

Cutting and sculpting is done, and boy pony has been spray painted white for a base layer, and the girl pony is getting a base coat of white on her hair.

Paint time next!



Woah! Got almost all of my flat colours down!
Mane colours are chosen because they're both brunettes, but teh bride to be mentioned they both like pink, so I went with a peachy pink stripe in his mane and tail, and a half and half on hers.

I have no clue where it is! I didn't receive an email saying I had a question, but the listing has 'unanswered question/ in red above it and on the drop down menu on the right the first one is 'respond'.

When I go through to my inbox, there is no question there? I've searched all through my deleted and archived, but there is nothing? It even says 'You have no more questions to answer.'

I'm new to selling on Ebay, but have been buying for years.
Does anyone have any clue what's happening? Googling it isn't getting me anywhere..

Off Topic / Help! How do you concentrate when you've got a paper to write?!
« on: November 24, 2014, 03:07:08 PM »
Because I should be writing one RIGHT NOW UURGH!
I'm meant to be handing in the introduction tomorrow morning but I've been so caught up in my other project and other activities that I haven't done it!
And, admission time.. I haven't looked at my dissertation for almost 3 weeks.. eep.

I just hate writing academically sooo much! It bores me so :C

So, ladies and gents and everyone else, how do you concentrate when you've got stuff to get done? I need some advice!

I'm going to go stare at the word document a bit more, and try not to end up on youtube..

They measure only 2cm tall~!

I've recently re-worked my mould, so Applejack is a little bulkier than the rest. But I'm super glad I managed to make her hat!

If you're interested, you can check out my Etsy store where they're on sale.

Or individually-

Twilight Sparkle - https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/205927707
Applejack- https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/205917672
Rarity- https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/205927707/
Fluttershy - https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/205918096
Zecora- https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/205931281/
Lyra and Bonbon as a discounted couple! - https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/166745639

I also take custom orders! Although I do plan to get the main 6 finished and sold as a group on a sculpted background, but I'm in my 3rd year of uni at the moment so that might not be viable..

But I am looking at working out how to make the princesses next!

Here's a pic of Celestia and Rainbow Dash, before painting, with blind bag Twilight to give you an idea of their tiny scale!

It looks like they're trying to bring more European and British buyers into Etsy, since it's quite big over in the US already.
They're asking sellers to share this code, which gives you £/€ 5 off a purchase of £/€ 10 or more, and the sellers don't lose out! Yaaay!
Please note that if you have an account, I think you need to make another one to use this code, I believe it is only for new customers.

Here is the code,

http://etsy.me/1rWcUMC

(Well actually it's my code, I won't lie, it helps the sellers as well.)

It can be used all over Etsy, but if you're interested you can check out my shop here - https://www.etsy.com/shop/TimataeTrinkets
I do have my little pony themed items! Simply click through on the 'shop sections' on the left hand side.

Just thought I'd give everyone a heads up! I would have loved this code a few weeks ago when I purchased something..

I just got this AMAZING Makeup package through from Lollipop! I asked her if she could put some items together that would suit my planned cosplay of Princess Celestia! I'm really glad I did, because I'm rubbish at makeup, and Lollipop totally came through for me, she included some beautifully designed ideas and well, since I've finished my classes for today, I thought.. why not!
So I grabbed a mirror and I sat, for pretty much an hour,  (I forget how long decent makeup takes!) and attempted to apply one of the designs.

Bonus flowery head band because I have yet to make the crown!

Extra close up so you can see the amazing colours in this! (although the camera didn't pick up the subtle pink to purple eyeshadow)

Tadaaah!
My Celestia wig came through a few weeks ago, and together, oooh my gosh it looks so good! Soooo worth it!

So massive thank you again, to Lollipop, and here you go girls! Proof that even if you don't do makeup, guided by someone who can you can make some preeetty awesome stuff happen!

Now to use that metallic gold eyeliner EVERY DAAAY WHOO

Wanted! / WANTED: NEW TAIL FOR SALTY
« on: March 25, 2014, 04:22:48 PM »
Strange request, but I digress.
I purchased Salty a loong time ago and was apparently giving him a clean when I packed him away.
I found him again recently only to discover his tail has gone walkies.
Now I'll admit it was in horrible condition, so I thought I'd simply purchase a new one, or the correct dolly hair/whatever brand colour to give him a new one.

So, anyone out there! Do you have a spare tail for my poor Salty?!

I've heard so many times on the arena that Magic Erasers are the super best things ever.

Well it seems that they're being sold in the UK now! Or they had for ages and I've only just found them.

Anyway, how do I go about cleaning a pony with it? Only I'm worried if I'm too hard it will damage them!
Should I test on a baity first?

Advice please and thank you!  :accomplished:

Oh my gosh!
So I pop into Gumtree every now and again (UK secondhand sales site) and for the fun of it I decided to search for ponies.
And low and behold, an ad popped up from someone near by, with an amazing line up! But it was 21 days old :/ It was also kinda expensive for a uni budget..
ButI thought, no harm in asking, right? So I texted the seller, they were still available, and then I haggled and managed to get them for only £23! (approx $36 according to google)
And hooo wee was it a massive lot! The ponies are all minty condition apart from the babies who have a little bit of raggled hair, Glimmer the baby seapony came with her float! And it also came with a boat load of accessories and a bathtub! Also, half of a showstable in not-great condition. Not sure what to do with that just yet..
I'd really love some help identifying what the accessories are from so I can price them correctly for sale (I'm not an accessory collector, and I'm sure someone out there is missing a few things!) I think the majority are from the birthday playset?

Hold onto your ponies, folks, here come the photos! (click through for bigger pics)

I feel like there should be a sticker on the 'pin the tail on the pony' board. Also, what are those weird yellow disk things? They were set out that way in the advertised photo.

oooh! I totally didn't see the princess hat in the photo! Does anyone know who's it is? Also, is the duck from the ballet school playset?

visitors can't see pics , please register or login

Last one! Is the comb mlp? and by any stretch, is the ribbon worth keeping?



Woohoo! I feel like this lot has ignited my love of G1 ponies again! Although this week's food budget might suffer for it.. hehe

Just asking as a buyer on Etsy dinged a star from me because a package took 'at least 4 weeks' to get to her. I posted it 3 days after the order was placed and heard nothing back from her until she left the feedback. I sent her a message asking how long it took because I hate being held accountable for shipping times that I have no control over! I always give parcels from the UK to the US at least 2 weeks.

So i wanted to ask, has anyone had delayed shipping from the US over january? (I posted the item on the 9th Jan)

Thank you for any help you can offer!
