    Winter/Holiday 2011 ATC Swap

    Thanks for the invite, BBD, but I'm totally swamped. I don't want to take on a swap when I might not have the gumption to finish it. Good luck, gals!

    Saving Bowtie: You Can Call Her Coral Now

    And this is it...the last batch of updates! :hugegrin: With her glue dried and fins shaped, I took bald Miss Coral outside, so you can get a more accurate view of her colors. Once she came inside from her little excursion, it was time for the hair. If I'd thought this through back in...

    Saving Bowtie: You Can Call Her Coral Now

    Thanks, everyone! I hope the last update made up for the four month hiatus. Ahhh, I'm going to try out mohair for the mane. :) That's on my agenda for tonight. I got two colors to mix together, so I'm going to have to play with it a bit... And as that implies...I did not set her or anything...

    just uploaded a TON of customs

    I remember so many of those early customs, especially your beautiful wings. Nobody does 'em like Woosie! :) I think I've seen the first Baby Diamond Dreams in person (the one with the real floss tassels) -- do you remember who bought her? I'm so curious now as to whether or not it's the same one.

    Saving Bowtie: You Can Call Her Coral Now

    Nah, Star Flare, it wasn't too bad. Now, if I hadn't used Apoxie Sculpt, it probably would have been a nightmare. My kitty loves the wires sticking out...so he clambered up on my desk, knocked her down to the floor, and was chewing on her fin wires. Some were pretty bent up, but no lasting...

    Saving Bowtie: You Can Call Her Coral Now

    Hehe, thanks for the bump! I have ended up totally swamped at work since my last update and, sadly, Miss Bowtie is perched above me, not looking so very different from the last update. I took a couple pics when I put on the first white basecoat, then I saw some flaws so we're back to the sanding...

    ~Spring 2011 ATC Swap!~ PACKAGES ARRIVING-SHOW OFF YOUR CARDS!

    Yeah, I think my little home copier didn't get the memo I only wanted to do nine cards. I was trying to copy the sketches from my scrap paper onto a finished piece so I could color them, and it kept cutting off some, so I kept copying... Like three tries later I finally get all my sketches on...

    ~Spring 2011 ATC Swap!~ PACKAGES ARRIVING-SHOW OFF YOUR CARDS!

    *shakes head* I have a real ATC addiction. I truly intended to only make 9 cards...then I ran into a little "issue" getting my sketches onto the nice paper and now I have 27 cards. So, Goddess Daine, I'll be sending you plenty of extras. I really do only need five back, though! :tongue2:

    A trading question.... added picture

    It looks like she might have a blush rub, and as that's a big ol' pet peeve of mine and I honed right in on it, I would not call that mint. Excellent would be a better description if that really is a rub I spy. But if you're trading fr early G1s with her, you might get a pretty good deal. At...

    Trimming Help

    What I do when I'm rehairing a G1 adult to make it look authentic is pull the hair around the neck and trim it even with the cheek on the opposite side, in a straight line (leave a bit extra if you're not sure!). The forelocks get pulled down and clipped at the end of the nose. And the tails I...

    ~Spring 2011 ATC Swap!~ PACKAGES ARRIVING-SHOW OFF YOUR CARDS!

    LOL, I believe it, BBD! I have my outlines about half done for my ponies. I'm making 9 outlines; I'll see what they look like and pick the best. Not sure yet how I'll get the flowers in there -- I was having too much fun sketching poses and looking at horse pictures. 8)

    ~Spring 2011 ATC Swap!~ PACKAGES ARRIVING-SHOW OFF YOUR CARDS!

    Just the May Flowers swap for me this time, with five cards. I'd like violets as my flower! My fave ponies: G1 Wind Whistler, Cloud Puff, Rapunzel, all sparkle ponies; G3 Kimono, Star Catcher, Snowflake, Starsong. If you feel adventurous I'd love to see some art of Una Pegassus, who is my...

    Winter 2010/2011 ATC Swap -- All finished! Album link posted.

    Okay, barring anything popping up late, I think we can close the book on this swap. :D Of course, if any late problem DOES pop up for this swap, please let me know and I'll get it resolved for you. After some tussles with the album system, you can now see all the cards that were turned in over...

    Yey, so glad to see most of them have arrived now! :hugegrin: I know what you mean, Tiegrsi. ;) Looks nice, but it'll stick to anything given half a chance. (And my cat will eat anything shiny, given half a chance, lol.) Lesse, Spirited...I think I sent one of yours to BBD, one to...

    Yes ma'am! You can leave me host feedback. :D Oh, and don't worry about the backgrounds! I usually do whatever looks right on the card, and yours looked great with the ponies being front and center. Like, I think if you'd put a background on the snowball pony, it would have looked totally...

    $ Price Check $ MO- Mother and baby Beach

    I've had a set on hold since September/October and I still don't have a price yet. I was hoping to get just the ponies at Skeen's price of $250-300. I think the seller is hoping to get more, especially since there's a crib involved (I don't collect accessories)... I'm about ready to make a...

    Bwahaha! After I sorted the cards into your packages, my bathtub was quite literally covered in glitter after I washed off that night. I loved it. I've still got some in my little rug here...every time I think I got it...nope, there's still more shinies! :tongue2: You sure can! And feel free...

    Oh, goodness, BBD! It figures on my last swap that the post office would manage to drop my packages in a puddle or snowdrift. :eevil: Let me know if any of mine need remade; it won't be a problem. I should be able to print you copies of any of your other cards if they're not drying well.

    Naw, you guys didn't doom it. I think I've been running ATC swaps nonstop for two years. Or maybe it's three, I can't remember off the top of my head. I really am just plum out of ideas at this point! You gals might have more fun if a couple of you switched off hostess duties. It doesn't have...

    Keep an eye on your mailboxes, everyone, as the cards went out this afternoon. Yey! Hopefully if they don't get caught in this impending ice storm of doom, this swap should be all wrapped up in a week or so. :D Oh, and I got your feedback posted this morning, so that's all finished. Double...
