Wow, congrats!  That's really cool of them, I haven't heard of that happening before. 

Perhaps if you're really curious you could e-mail them and ask about it?

I love the mix of the different textures for her hair, it looks gorgeous and is quite unique!  I am also a big fan of eyes done in various shades of the same color instead of using black for the outlines, it gives such a soft appearance.  Really great job on her!

I'm a lefty!  I do use scissors with my right hand though, otherwise they tend to hurt or not cut correctly, and I can use either hand for mouse/laptop touchpad scrolling.  I write and draw exclusively with my left hand though.

I updated my post on the first page with a bunch more doubles, I would love to do some trades! 

Thanks for sharing your technique!  He looks so much better once you style his hair to lay flatter, doesn't he? I especially like how you got the front of his hair to part around his horn.

I did something similar with my Shining Armor as well.

First off, thank you for making a new card trading thread, Aquatice!

I finally have a decent enough amount of extras that I got everything listed up. I would love to hear from anyone who would like to trade, even if it's just a card or two!    I'm pretty chill when it comes to trading, just PM me if you're interested in any of my doubles and I'm sure we can work out something.    I would be happy to trade multiple regular cards for the foils I need.

And just a heads up, the foils I have in my wanted section are mostly for my own records.  I have a modest amount of foils in my collection and only a few to trade - I'm just trying to keep track of everything in one spot, not expecting to be offered any rare foils for what I have.

I just picked up the Famous Friends set and didn't notice a leaflet... good thing I keep all my boxes because now I've gotta check if I got one! 

And totally seconding everyone on UMBRELLA HAT.    I already have a complete set of Fashion Styles, but man if they are going to be released with different accessories this time (and ones that tie into the show, even!) I'm going to have to buy them again.

Congrats, and thank you for sharing!  Very neat to see in hand pictures of this Fluttershy, I really hope they end up being released.
