  • For this swap, you will be creating a G1 pony based on one of your partner's favorite G3 ponies.
  • Participants will be paired based upon skill level. Don't be intimidated if you're a beginner!
  • This is a circle swap. Partners will be secret, so please try your best not to reveal yours until he/she has received his/her custom.
  • Ponies chosen can be adults or babies of any breed, so long as it is a pony from the G3 line.
  • You will have EIGHT WEEKS to complete your custom. Please be sure that you are able to commit and stay committed to this project.
Participation Requirements:
1. Minimum three months membership.
2. Minimum post count of 100.
3. Minimum of 10 positive feedbacks on any of the community sites (MLPTP, Arena, PI). I am not accepting eBay feedback this round.
4. Minors (under age 18.) may join with an adult sponsor. You will keep your sponsor informed of your progress, checking in with him/her just as you will with me. This person will receive overall swap feedback from me for being a sponsor. A sponsor must meet the following requirements:
a. At least 21 years of age.
b. Minimum six months membership.
c. Minimum of 15 positive feedbacks on any of the community sites.
d. He/She must check in on the specified dates to verify that his/her sponsee has checked in.
​
Swap Requirements:
1. Use a genuine G1 pony to create your custom. Please don't use fakies, as they're not of the same quality. If you are unsure about whether you should customize a particular G1, don't hesitate to ask. Better safe than sorry!
2. Please join the G3 to G1 Custom Swap social group. There, you can share tips and techniques and discuss the swap.
3. You must be able to meet all deadlines. I understand that life can sometimes throw us curveballs. Should a problem arise, I ask that you PM me ASAP so that appropriate arrangements can be made.
4. All packages must have some type of tracking, for which you must PM me the codes.
5. You must leave feedback for your partner after receiving your custom.

Important Dates:

YAY! :D Roudn two! I needs a new sponsor though..Pinky isn't around much anymore..
 
I sent my application in, skig! Ooh, exciting!
 
Hmm, decisions, decisions. Should I go for this one too?
 
Looks like I'll have to wait for a round 3... I can't wait to see the customs though. The last ones were all gorgeous!

I'd hate to sign up only to find out that I couldn't meet deadlines, etc due to lack of funds.

That's actually very wise, and will avoid all the heartache associated with missed deadlines. ::hugs::
 
I'm waiting on some PM replies, but the list is current.

jenny, you should definitely do it. Your customs are awesomeness. :D

tsukikakushi, are you a member of/have feedback on any of the other boards? That's the only requirement that you don't meet, but I may bend them by accepting eBay feedback again. I see that you have a clean record over there.
 
I'm not a member of any of the other boards. But I did finish my custom for Skeen's swap. It's still in progress, so no feedback for that yet. Same for a couple of art swaps here also.

You're getting positive feedback from me when the swap finishes - you finished early, shipped early, and made a lovely custom. :)
 
Yay! More custom pony goodness! Now go to bed, you can look it over later. Sleep is more important. :)
 
soooo.. i have NEVER done a custom of any kind.. well i did make a plushie once..
but i would love to try!
i feel like im a pretty artsy creative person..
and i do have a bit of perfectionism in me too. especially when im making something for someone else :)

but like i said i have never done anything like this so i could be in over my head...
i have no supplies as of yet, however i do have bait G1s and i aim to please! :angel2:

so what do you think? does it cost a lot to get basic supplies? (i actually do have quite a bit of quality acyrilic paints, is that what you use?) i dont think the time limit will be a problem but who knows...

maybe i could be matched up with another beginner so that the other person doesnt get their hope up too high LOL!!
 
Yes, I'm still awake. I got caught up with one of my albums.

relceleste, I'd estimate the cost of basic supplies (paint/sealer, a brush/makeup sponges, hair, glue for the hair, and a rehair tool if you choose that method) to be about $30-35. This, of course, depends on how many hair colors you'll need and where you order your hair, mainly. If it's within your budget, we'd love to have you. Just PM me your form, and I'll give you a more detailed list of supplies/recommendations if you want.
 
thanks so much skig!!!
i think its gonna be outta my budget...
maybe i will just practice a bit with the stuff i have and see if i enjoy it enough to invest in some legit supplies :)
thanks so much for all the info!!
cant wait to see everyones creations!! :)
 
ooo, I just Pm'd skig! how exciting!!
 
Hrmmm. *ponders* Pika poked me with a stick in chat telling me I should sign up. I think I'll have to give it some more thought... or receive some more severe poking before I decide.
