Heh- Kinda spammed the forums in my excitement and forgot to introduce myself Lol.

Anyways, Hi!

My name is Susan, and I'm from New Zealand, the Land of the long white Cloud / Middle Earth ^^ I'm 29 (No old jokes please), and I'm a BIG fan of art ^^ My favourite mediums to work with are Pencil, Coloured Pencil, Paint (oil atm), screen tone, and vectors. I'm not much of a digital fan. That doesn't stop me from trying it out sometimes though My Deviantart account is under Arkillian also for those wanting to see my art I have a large lacking of animals in my art, but I DO have plenty of humans ^^

I've been coming to this forum and going through all the tutorial threads for a good month now after getting interested in Pony modding. I was a HUGE MLP fan when I was a little girl back in... G2? G1? I'm not sure O.o It was around when this board game came out



I loved that board game. Donno what happened to it now though... Anyways, I just recently got back into MLP with G4 Friendship is magic, and all my friends are Fangirls / Bronies, and they've been showing me AWESOME pony customs and I was all "SO AWESOME" and decided I wanted to try

Anyways, so I'm here as a fan to appreciate MLP fanart, maybe someday contribute to it. Mostly right now I'd love some support in my progress of making custom ponies

And please forgive me if I go all English / Kiwi on you. I assure you I'm not wanting to offend anyone but I speak New Zealand English, so I may use alot of words that mean something TOTALLY different to an American! I'm still learning what not to say in front of you guys

And if there's any Kiwis out there, don't forget to Bro-hoof!

Welcome to the Arena, Arkillian

There are plenty of other kiwi pony fans here so you are definitely not alone. I hope you enjoy being part of the community

OH REALLY? Can you name a few? ^w^

Um- are you one? Being the Kiwi MLP in your Signature? If you are then :megaglomps:

Yes, I am one of the many! I'm sure the others will come forth and make themselves known. Everyone here is really friendly

Awesome! Are you ok telling me where in NZ you are? I'm from Auckland (Don't hold it against me- I'm rural Auckland )

I'm in Dunedin. We are a fairly well spread out group but we did manage to have a pony meet a couple of years back in Wellington.

Ah- damn. I hoped that people lived closer XD It'd be great to talk IRL with some Kiwi MLP fans

There are a few of us up north. Hang around the forums and I'm sure you will get to know them

That sounds good! I hope some are in their 20s. I always feel a bit weird giggling about ponies or art around teens >.>

....

XD Lol. Obvious reasons why. We don't grow up- we just get older

Welcome to the Arena! I'm from Aus, so I'm not really that far away from you
I had that board game too! It was so precious, and then I started collecting and went to find it.... but my mum had thrown it out.
Don't worry about being 'old', you'll find that a whole lot of us are in our 20s or 30s.

Oh- excellent ^^ I was worried cause the pony fans on Deviantart are all Gen 4 fanatics and are all teenagers. IT's great to see a more mature audience here to share my love. Oh, actually, I'll scan a picture I drew when I was 7 or 8 from the game cover. IT's SO OLD, but I thick it fits me posting it. Gimme a bit to scan it.

Yes- I have art dating back to when I was 7. In my adorable days XD Lol



There you go- Vintage fanart It doesn't get more old school that G1 fanart done when G1 was current

[mod edit for double posts - kiwimlp]

I tip my hat to you. Or, rather, I would if I was wearing one.

WELCOME!

Yeah the FiM craze consists of teens who consider anything older than 5 years "antique, inferior to modern trend"..

You are amongst like-minded ponyfans ^^

Hello and Welcome to the Arena!

Thanks for sharing your art!
