Sallutations!

Well hello everypony

This is custom artist known online as LightningMana
I have a side hobby of selling customs which I've been doing for literally a decade now *3*

I've sold customs all over the world just about and it's just what I love doing.
People ask me why I don't make dolls, my answer is they just aren't the same as working on ponies, I just enjoy ponies the most as I'm melded into my custom methods by now.


I first got into customs during summer of 2005, when I stumbled upon Minty's Custom Tutorial one lonely summer. I then found a professionally made Cactuar pony, which caused ponies and random geekdom to spark together in my head.

I've been hopelessly addicted to it ever since and there is no turning back!

For sales, I make enough to cover my bills. Once in a while I have a slow month but it picks back up.

I think the main ingredient for this hobby is do what you love, love what you do, and people will love it too.

If you do something you hate, people will hate it. Just pour your "you" into it and it'll show.
Some people will hate what you do anyway but what matters is the ones that love it and keep you going.

Welcome to the group! Can't wait to see your customs on here! :-)

Hello!

why hello there
