I'm sorry I had to skip this swap again due to scheduling problems, I sat out last year and this has always been one of my favourite swap themes... But I hope you all have great fun! I'll be stalking this thread and looking forward to seeing the finished customs, I'm sure they will all be epic!

Thanks for getting partners out so quick, got my bait picked out and I'm looking forward to getting started

[Uninu]

Just making sure: how do you people feel about big ponies in custom swaps? I mean G3 styling size or G4 fashion size or G4zillas.

I like those three sizes and don't mind getting one from swaps

That moment when you get your partner and start some seriously hard stalking....

[H]ow do you people feel about big ponies in custom swaps? I mean G3 styling size or G4 fashion size or G4zillas.

I prefer more normative sizes if there's to be a lot of sculpting. Large paint schemes are nice on grand ponies but I've always held a soft spot in my heart for detail work and teensy brushstrokes.

My answer to questions:

Are Zillas or fashion style ok?I don't mind larger size customs if that's what works best for the design.  I have some zillas in my collection so any size would fit right in.

What are your top 3 sort of iconic halloween images?
1. Black cats- I love black cats and have a black cat tattoo
2. Full moons
3. Rolling fog

Do you like Day of the dead designs?

Honestly, I usually don't like this type of design.  They usually seem too visually busy for my tastes.

If you know your partner has likes other than those on the form, either through knowing them a little over time or from hardcore stalking, is it okay to involve those, too? Or is it better to just stick to the stuff on THIS form?  I'd almost rather people stalk me, I never know what to put on the form.  Please feel free to base your custom off of my da favs, comments, conversations, stalking, anything at all.

Do you have a preference between sculpted or sewn clothing?
I'd rather sewn just because I don't have as much, but it's not critical.

Glow in the dark? I'm not super into it, but I wouldn't mind if it fit your idea. ^^

Perfume puff? Super cute and would be a ok with me.

I'm fine with them. Any base my partner wants to use is fine.

Hm, okay, question time! What are your top 3 sort of iconic halloween images. You know the ones that you most often see associated with halloween. Jack o lantern, witch, bat, skeleton etc. For example, my top 3 (in no particular order) would probably be

Skulls
Candy Corn
Ravens

[Uninu]

My top 3 iconic halloween images are:
Bat
Rat
Witch

[Roogna]

size: well, I said no G4s, so that only leaves FS g3 and I'd prefer a more normal size...but if you have an idea that will just blow me away and HAS to be done in a bigger size, then go for it

iconic images - way too hard to narrow down, but these are three that i'm diggin on right now
witches
spiders
bats

day of the dead? I like some aspects, but maybe not 100% dotd

ideas from stalking vs form?
sure. If you check out my favs on DA, you'll have a pretty good idea of the kinds of things I like that's probably your best lead beyond my answers on the form.

sculpted vs sewn clothing?
I generally prefer sculpted, but I own a couple with sewn that are pretty darn cool.

gitd?
sure

perfume puff hair?
I enjoy mohair and batting and puffy yarn IF it's the right fit for the overall look
