Off to the Fair

Sun Jun 14, 2009, 7:47 AM
Hey, only 4 months since my last update, that's not bad.

Here we are less than a week before the annual MLP Fair and I've just posted the customs that I'll be bringing with me to sell (plus a few others.) I only decided to go to the Fair in May, so it's been a rush to get them done in time, but I'm pretty happy with the batch. I'm still working to finish my custom contest entry pony, but she'll be done before I go to bed tonight, one way or another.

I've also printed out a binder with ALL the pages of MLP customs that you see here to bring with me. It's interesting to look back and see how my art has progressed over the years (you all know what that's like.) I had a good idea of which pony was my first "professional" custom, but I was surprised to see how early on I'd done her. I had in my head that I'd done many more customs before her, but in reality it was just that I'd been customizing slowly for many years. After her, things really took off and I've started producing around 50 customs a year. (That first "professional" job, it's Snow White Queen, my 26th custom.)

Don't state the obvious, people don't like it when reality proves them wrong.

Because the human body is so disgusting we must all walk around with our eyes closed just incase we see a nipple or heaven forbid a penis!

Thank you. Another large custom dump will be coming sometime before the MLPFair.

Sorry, I lied. Large custom dump coming after the MLPFair. (Months after...)

hey, I saw you on the arena, and thought I'd check out your dA page. I love your customs, and we seem to have a bit in common, so I think I shall watch you. :D

You wouldn't say too much either if you'd taken a bullet in the tongue.
