Hi guys!

As the title says, I've been a lurker on the MLP trading post for quite a long time (several years, in fact) but this is the first time I've ventured to post.

I like to collect and customise ponies, although it's just a hobby for me. I'm nowhere near good enough to sell my work, but one day I'd like to be. I've only completed one full customisation - a Lily Munster G3 - but I'm working on several customisations and restorations at the moment.

I started off with a pretty small collection, just my original childhood ponies. Most of the white haired ones need re-hairing (TAF Bonnie Bonnets, TTT Snookums and Sniffles will eventually get re-hairs, not sure about re-hairing my two Sunshine Ponies).
When I was a kid I desperately wanted all the Sparkle Ponies, so I made them my first priority and I have them all now, including MOC babies. Right now I am very slowly working on getting all the Summer Wing ponies, as well as Daddy Apple Delight.

I guess my rarest pony is probably TAF Munchy, who is one of my childhood ponies and is still in gorgeous condition, with silky uncut hair and unblemished paint/skin.


My current projects are:

Custom Mileena & Kitana ponies from Mortal Kombat
Restoring Raincurl, who had spent 5 years in a plastic container full of water.
Working out the best way to recreate male pony hooves on female G3 ponies

I was prompted to join because I have a lot of questions about restoration that are specific to my current projects and the advice given here is always great.

That was a very long intro!
