Hello! I'm new to the arena but not to ponies! Finally decided to stop lurking and actually post something! XD

Personal:
Roughly how old are you?
25

Approxiamately where do you live? State, Country?
Plymouth, UK.

Do you work or attend school? Profession or major?
I'm a freelance illustrator and run a little shop on Etsy.

Who are the important people in your life?
My boyfriend, family and bestest friend and pegasister Nonokono! XD

Ponies:

How long have you been collecting?
I've always loved Ponies since I was little but I got back into collecting a few years ago when I discovered ebay and realized just how many ponies there were that I'd never even heard of!

Which generations of ponies do you collect? G1, G2, G3 or G4?
G1, G3 (but not 3.5) and G4.

What made you want to collect ponies?
They're cute, colourful and they inspire me. I love how many different ponies there are. IDK, I think I just never grew up... I love toys! And in my opinion they're a much better way to waste money than smoking or drinking. XD

Tell us about your collection.
My G1s are unimpressive but they're the ones I *love*, so I don't care whether they're worth £1 or £100. I have no hope of ever trying to have a complete collection of G1 or even G3 but I'm trying to collect all of the variations of Fluttershy as they're released because I love her so much! <3

Look forward to getting to know you all! x

Hello ! Welcome ! You run a shop on Etsy? Could you share; I have one too~
And I would love to see some of your work as well, as I intent on freelancing on either animation, illustration or comics - or all of them !

All the places that you can find me at are in my siggy, in case you are curious too

And I feel the same way about toys, hehe~

Hello and Welcome to the Arena!

We are happy to have another talented artist here!

Welcome to the Arena, tinrobo. I agree that ponies are a much better thing to spend money on than cigarettes or alcohol (although I confess to spending a bit on the later!). I hope your collection continues to grow now that you are here

Greetings and welcome to the Arena, tinrobo.

Welcome to the Arena, I look forward to seeing you around.

Oh, thanks !

Welcome~
I am pretty new here too. I love your "Know your pony" poster on Etsy. It is so cute. I just spent most of my PayPal money on some lots on Ebay, but I might have to pick up a poster from you when I have money again.
