My G2 to G1/3 swap will be officially wrapped up in the next couple of days so it's on to the next project!

Would anyone be interested in an ice cream themed swap?

National ice cream day is July 15th so this is the timeline I have in mind:
Sign-ups April 22nd to 29th
Partners sent April 30th
Photo Check-in June 2nd
International Shipping June 30th
Domestic Shipping July 7th

Alternate timeline-
Sign-ups July 1st to 14th
Partners sent July 15th
Photo Check-in August 19th
International Shipping September 15th
Domestic Shipping September 22nd

I know that might create some hiccups because of the Fair that weekend so I'd be open to tweaking the dates here and there if need be.

I think there will two categories (sculpting and painting) which will be... well, just like they sound lol.
If you sign up for the sculpting category then your custom would HAVE to include 3D symbols or any kind of major ice cream sculpting. (sculpted hair would not be a requirement)
If you sign up for the painting category then you'd just be looking at the typical rehair, repaint (if you needed), new symbol kind of custom.

So.... interested?

WOW. I am NOT an artist....BUT I can not wait to see these MLP customs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (love ice cream)
 
Oh Rist, I'm so tempeted... But I have so much to do for the fair still... But maybe I can finagle some time for one more swap ;)
 
Yeah I'm sure with the Fair there will be a lot going on... I just came up with that timeline so hopefully we'd have our ponies in hand in time for Ice Cream Day, but we could always push it back and celebrate by getting partner assignments on July 15th instead!
 
I don't have time for a swap right now, but I am working on an icecream custom - I'll be sure to share pics when he's done

I'd be down for that. I don't really like ice cream but I love the colors and everything!
RAINBOW SPRINKLES!!!! Once every few years I do have a craving for mint chocolate chip!

You like milkshakes. That's the same thing.

Do you remember in college when it was like a billion degrees and the ONLY thing either of us wanted to eat was mint choc chip fom Braum's? I just remember waking from an ice cream coma and being sticky.

Wow. Ice cream is NOT what I should be thinking about on weigh-in day.
 
Me too! WHat are the requirements :) ? I am dying over all the possibilities, I was even thinking yesterday how I would go about making a Rocky Road pony! Rainbow sherbet? Neapolitan? Strawberry Blonde? Mint Chocolate chip!?!? Gah! I want all these ponies!!!
 
ummmmmmmm sounds fun, i´m in 2 swaps on the arena and have 10 other customs to make, so i would say maybe.....
 
I doubt I'd meet all the requirements to sign up (I joined in March), but I'd love to see what everyone else does :)
 
I think I may go with the second timeframe as I've had a couple people mention that they'd like to join but are currently in "OMG FAIR D:" scrambling mode XD
 
*comes out of woodwork* Ooh yes yes yes! Just finished digging out ponies from the move. They aren't even put away yet and I already lopped off poor Chilly Breeze's head and symbol. LOL

Do it, Ambar Jul! I am in 2 swaps on the arena too :) Just think of all the yummy ice cream...

I don't like coffee-flavored ice cream, but they would be so much fun to make into a pony!
 
I think the second time frame would be great, we start on National Ice Cream Day :)
 
Is this still in the works? (Pleasesayyes)
 
Yep, I'm just gonna go with the later time frame.
