Arena Halloween Custom Swap!! Shipping!

[SoldierofTwilight]

All swap participants will be required to include $5.00 (USD) worth of goodies or holiday treats

Sorry, I wasn't implying that we had to spend a lot on them, but the fun part about Halloween is not only the awesome pony, but a few holiday goodies to go with it. Is everyone wanting to do no goodies at all, or what was specified? Just want to be clear on what we're doing and expecting. I mean, personally I don't expect to receive exactly the same as I give, since I tend to go a bit overboard sometimes. But usually a few goodies are a requirement for certain swaps.

in case it's not being checked...I sent a PM to the "customs swap" name that we sent our questionnaires to....

Sorry about that! Tending to it now! And to everyone who messaged the CustomSwap account, your issues are being dealt with and you should have what you need shortly! And I'll try to remember to check this account a bit better from now on. I'm really sorry about that!

Tail in, counterweights in and first round of sculpting done. I changed up the design a bit, mainly because I couldn't figure out how to do my first idea BUT I got some new ideas for the new design that I think will be even better.

Counterweights! That sounds promising

I'm really enjoying working on this pony and am going to have a very hard time giving it up I can already tell. It's amazing the difference a fresh batch of apoxie sculpt can make - sculpting small details is a breeze!

I haven't been able to really start yet as I wanted to let the dye soak in before putting anything on it. But this weekend is going to be dedicated to pony only work!! Gotta get started on pieces of sculpting asap then I have to get my airbrush working again. >.>

Have my bait fully air brushed!
How does everyone feel about scented ponies?

[WaePonies]

love scented ponies

I get migraines so a soft scent is fine but anything really strong won't due for me. Generally I err on the side of not scented.

I think it depends on the scent. I love scented, I did the B&BW swap and it was AWESOME! This is actually a good question, because I had a "halloween-ish" scent I was wanting to try out.

But, I'm none too keen on scents like firewood or anything woods-y or linen smells. I like my fresh laundry to smell like something else actually, lol. I do love cinnamon and pumpkin though, so that's fine. Anything sweet and flowery is fine too.

bait is primed and sanded, tho im gonna give the head another coat today cause it looks a bit thinner than the body. I know it doesn't matter but my ocd is screaming at me. =P

scents: I don't really mind scented ponies tho theyre kind of a novelty to me so I wouldn't want many. tho right now I have no scented customs so if you wanted to that's fine. typically I prefer cinnamon scents. =]
