hi all! been lurking on here for a couple days and figured id just make an account already - im creg / they / 21 yrs + im fairly new!
i really only started seriously collecting in july of 2020 after being struck with a sudden possible autoimmune disorder + latching onto ponies to ... cope? i suppose? I was suddenly stuck in bed with limited mobility and surrounding myself with ponies + restoring/cleaning a couple over these past couple months has been so relaxing for me ♡ not to mention how nice and accepting the pony community has been to me always.
ive always been into mlp ( born in 1999 so i missed out on the old ponies ) and the old ones were alluring to me even as a kid! all the ponies i had growing up were g3 + were later sold off by my awful mom so i am in the process of collecting back the ones i remember + some new girls for the herd ♡ Ive always been a toy collector so mlp collector rooms have been facinating to me since i was very small, and some of my earliest memories are looking at other peoples collection rooms on my computer.
i got really into mlp: fim when i was in middle school and managed to hold onto the g4 ponies i used to pick up at kmart after school, so i still have those thankfully. my collection is pretty small right now as my finances arent consistant + i dont have much space, but i collect ponies based on my bond with each one individually - so i have around 30 ( g1-g3 ) that mean the world to me ♡
as for favorites - i have a real soft spot for BBE ponies, i find their eyes to have a super adorable creepy-cute factor. augh ♡ i could stare at them all day. i dont know why i like them so much but i hope to learn to restore them so i can have a lot of them someday. other than BBEs, im obsessed with the G1 twice as fancy ponies + G3 pegasus ponies. at the end of the day i like ALL ponies really, it just depends on the individual feeling the pony brings me. i could gush about ponies all day.
aside from ponies im a comic artist + illustrator for my professional stuff !! ive had to take a major break bc of my health, but normally i am working 24/7 on my projects. i also do pony art for me + friends ( more based on the g1 mlp illustrative style ) and the fanpony i made to represent me is a pegasus named skysplash!
anyways, ive gone on way too long! ;; i cant say how often ill be active on here ( im suuuper shy ) but ive already found so many helpful recources here that at least know ill be lurking ♡ the pony community is one of the sweetest ive encountered anywhere, and it really feels like home whenever i encounter it. hope everypony has a good day ♡
