Wanted! / I Need G4s!
« on: January 13, 2013, 04:16:57 PM »
UPDATED

So, it looks like I WILL be getting a table at Anime Central this year and I'd really like to sell custom G4 ponies there in addition to my custom G1s and G3s. The problem? I have no G4 baits!

So, I am looking for loose, brushable G4s. Just the normal ones, not the ones with huge plastic wings or molded saddles. Condition unimportant since I will be painting/dyeing/rehairing/etc. I particularly need pegasus ponies, preferably without the sad-eye mold that Fluttershy has. But it's negotiable since I can easily paint over it.

I would also be interested in loose blind bags of boys, princesses, the pinkie mold, and the twilight mold. Not sparkly or metallic since those a pain to paint over. :)

I'd also like maybe one or two fashion style ponies, preferably unicorns, but I'm open to any.

I am hoping to buy a fair amount from just one person since I am trying to keep the costs of my materials down, preferably paying about $3 a pony or less for the brushables. $2 or so each for blindbags. Up to $8 for a Fashion Style.

U.S. Sellers only please since the cost of shipping is something I'd like to keep down too. :)

Thanks!

Did everyone's boxes arrive? 

Poor Honeycomb is still waiting on hers. It seems to have gotten lost in the post between Canada and Germany. :(

I know reyl mailed your package, Honeycomb. I have no idea why it's taking so long. You wouldn't think Canada to Germany would be such a problem.

Customs / Alternate Rehairs : Princess Tiffany, Rosedust, and Morning Glory

Here's some rehairs I did recently.

Princess Tiffany

I have rehaired her in Pink Sugar, Daquiri Ice (pale blue), and Starlight, which gives it the same shimmer as the tinsel without the flyaways. :)

I also retouched her blush and completely repainted her eyes because they had severe rubs. Her medallion's silver finish had also been rubbed off, so I repainted it with metallic acrylics.



Rosedust

This one has been rehaired in Virgin Snow, Butterfly yellow, Candytuft pink, and Envy green. I also retouched her blush.


Morning Glory

This one has been rehaired in a plug-by-plug mix of Ultraviolet (the dark purple) and Wisteria (the lavender). I also retouched her blush since it had been pretty much all rubbed off.

Off Topic / Re: Do you have any pets?
« on: October 15, 2012, 08:01:16 PM »
I have one cat named Eowyn; a long-haired grey tabby with a white bib and white socks. I got her when she was about 9 weeks old. A family who lived near me had adopted her from the city pound and then realized one of their kids was allergic to her. Not wanting to make the hour-long drive to return her, they asked if I wanted her. When I got her, she was VERY sick with a URI. I took her to the vet and got her on meds and she spent her first two weeks with me sleeping on a heating pad and licking at turkey-flavored baby food. Now she is an outrageously gorgeous eight-year-old kitty with a fluffy feather duster of a tail. Her shelter name was Claire. The other family had called her Skittles. I named her Eowyn because I love Lord of the Rings. Also, at the time, I was fostering a large black dog and the first time she met the dog, she attacked him (as much as a sniffling, 1.5 pound kitten can attack anything). She was so ferocious that I named her after the warrior princess in Lord of the Rings who killed the Witch King.

I also have a snake; a four-foot long ball python named Riddle. I got him when a friend of mine moved overseas and couldn't take him with her. I have the distinct feeling he was not "captive-bred" as she was told he was. He refuses to eat anything but live prey. And he will not eat white mice. For a long time, I struggled to find prey he would eat since he had no interest in white mice and every time I found non-white mice, I would get told they were for pets only. Finally, I took a small risk and got him a very small brown rat, a little bigger than an adult mouse. Ate it right away. Since I got him, he's grown at least a foot and now eats one medium-sized rat every 7-10 days. He surprisingly amiable to being handled and likes to hang out around my forearm while I'm typing. I've also found that he scares the living daylights out of the punk kids that like to smoke weed under my window.

And lastly, I have a pet rat; a black hooded rat named Squeaker. She was supposed to be food for the snake. However, he was on a hunger strike and refused to eat her. This is why I also call her The Rattie Who Lived. By the time he was eating again, she was too big for him to handle, so she became a pet. She's a sweet little rat and likes to be petted. Doesn't like being picked up very much since she always squeaks in alarm when I do it, but she's never bitten or scratched me. She pretty old for a rat now, almost three and she has one of those mammary tumors that rats are so prone to. I took her to the vet, but he said that at her age, surgery would be more stress than its worth for her. So I'm keeping her comfy and feeding her ginger and soy to help keep the tumor's size under control. Oddly enough, she and Eowyn get along. Eowyn will sniff at her and try to groom her. Squeaker will sniff back and try to snuggle into her fur. Eowyn has been known to hunt rodents, but I think Squeaker is just too BIG to be seen as prey. :)

And those are my pets!

And Sparkler as a Perfume Puff! (I braided her hair just for neatness since my ponies are pretty tightly-packed on display.)

I love them both so much!

There was some candy (some of which I couldn't identify until I ate it, because the packaging was in Japanese), but I kinda... sorta... ate all of it. :)

I've got a package waiting for me at the main apartment office and I can't get to it until after work! Pretty sure that's my swap package since I'm not expecting anything else. Can't wait to get out of work to check it out!

Out of curiousity, do we know how many people are still expecting packages? (And who need to post on the brag thread? LOL I want to see more pretty ponies!)

I've been trying to keep up with the posts here  AND on the brag forum and noting who has received on the first page. So the first page is the best indication. I'll be giving another week before I start asking people to contact me to say whether they've received/shipped/etc.

LOVING the brag thread guys, keep showing off your new ponies. It's like my new favorite thread.

And this is the first swap I have ever been in. Do we need to make sure we leave feedback for anyone? Or is it the swap coordinator who leaves feedback?



You leave feedback for your own partner. I only leave feedback if something went very wrong. :)

I'm really sorry to my partners, but I'm not going to be able to make the deadline. We are completely broke, and I can't afford to send it until Thursday.   :cry: I feel so bad about this, I really do...

Don't feel bad, Panda. I'm the swap leader and I'm running late due to finds too. Had an unforseen vet bill. :)
