Hunter Knight 3 October 31, 2013 Share October 31, 2013 Hello Everypony! My name is Chris and have just joined the forums after asking my brony and pegasister friends about the best site. But first let me tell you how I landed on the pony fandom: I'm a self taught action figure customizer/toy designer for the last 5 years, I mostly auction my work on Ebay and also take commissions. One day, this past July, days before San Diego Comic con, a customer reached me about making a custom "Pinkie Pie"... I had no idea what a Pinkie Pie was, so I asked him to send me some reference pictures as well as some clips from the character, to better have an idea. So he sent me the episode "party of one" I thought to myself: "well this is going to be annoying but hey, it's my job" ...I was supposed to only watch that episode but ended up watching the entire series in 4 days. After that, I was hooked on all things pony, watched all documentaries, voice actor panels, the Las Pegasus conundrum and decided to expand the branch of custom action figures to ponies as well. So yeah now I'm a brony... I will be posting my work on this site, and I would love to hear about your comments etc, I'm focusing more on Funkos and the regular Hasbro line, but all suggestions are welcome. Thank you all! Here is a sample of the work I have been doing: 1 MTV interview: http://geek-news.mtv.com/2010/11/15/interview-toy-customizer-chris-diaz/Visit my store (free shipping in the Usa)http://www.vipcollector.comYoutube channel:http://www.youtube.com/hunterknight4Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/hunter.knight.customs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aniki 386 October 31, 2013 Share October 31, 2013 Aniki sends out a warm welcome the forums and the fandom Chris! Ah "Party of One", probably one of the best episodes to be introduced to the fandom with. Those customs ya got there are pretty damn diggity awesome but could most definitely use more Fluttershy (Without a doubt!) Or hey, ya know, Fluttermina. Hey, just throwing ideas out there! (Don't mind me) I'm sure you'll totally love it here on the forums. We've got quite the talented bunch of ponies in our midst.

It's a mixture between Fluttershy and Kamina from Gurren Lagann! BEHOLD! ...Aaaand the more I look at it, the more I think it should never be brought to life in model form. *shudder* 1 ~Signature by my awesome sibling @Armchair Adventurer "Som"~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
