Description Another Upheaval-inspired fanart. Initially I wanted to post fragments from the chapter this picture is based on, but I figured it would be best if you just go and read the story, because the fragment is literary the final boss battle from the part one, so spoilers all the way.

What is with Rarity and using shard-based weaponry in fics like this? She did it in The Immortal Game too.

I suppose it's just an elegant way to arm an elegant mare

Have you read The Immortal Game? If you liked the Upheaval series, you'd love that story.

ok, 8 chapters in... it's a pretty good story... I like all the plotting, though it's nowhere near Black Rose's level but so far I'm interested although it bothers me a little how everyone in the story is overpowered and Luna is so underpowered <_< I mean, I understand why it is done that way (balance and stuff) but it just feels a little bit stretched at times and comes out of nowhere in some cases.

ok, so... I finished it
the story was pretty nice and I recommended it to few friends, but I still feel there were problems with overpowering characters and somewhat rushed story. Still, it was pretty cool and I like the idea of those unicorn blades... and Astor Coruscare... I wish there was more on her in the story

Urządziłeś taką produkcję kucy, że nie nadążam generalnie cały czas poprawiasz swój warsztat - cool - jak coś mi się rzuci w oczy będę po prostu o tym pisał bez wstępów do każdego rysunku, ok? w tym konkretnie nie wiem czy są te groty, którymi ciska (chyba, że właśnie sobie odpowiedziałem), a poza tym spoko

ostrza, sztylety dla jednorożców. Gdybyś miał czas poleciłbym fanfika, na podstawie którego ten obrazek powstał

spoiler

Nightmare Moon had aimed a blast of flame at Vanguard Clash but she changed her target at the last moment. With Pyre Valor acting up again, her aim faltered as did her control over the tentacles. The torrent of flame washed over Rarity, engulfing the white unicorn completely. To her surprise, Rarity leaped through the flames without so much as a slightly singed coat. An aura of purple magic surrounded Rarity. Her blades spun towards Nightmare Moon, their formation making them resemble an enormous spinning disc. She readied a teleportation spell but she felt another spell hit her, rooting her to the spot.

stringtheory00 In reply to Adalbertus [2012-04-18 18:01:29 +0000 UTC]

it's still not on the Upheaval page though, I think you might have mistakenly marked it as normal pony art and not fan-art for Upheaval, or they though it was good enough to go in the drawfriend and are dragging their feet on adding it to the Upheaval page

Adalbertus In reply to stringtheory00 [2012-04-18 19:06:08 +0000 UTC]

I wrote it is a fanart for Upheaval in my submission email. as a matter of fact I just copied what I wrote in my previous emails
oh well... if the won't update it I will just resend the email.
and maybe add few other pictures as a standard submission just to see if they will get featured as well

my opinion is send your non-fanart pics separately, to avoid a mix up

you really do like your flame effects
awesome pic, not much to complain about, the look for the blades is interesting
the only minor quibble I have is with her mage coat (I assume that's what it is, and not a regular wolven cloak, otherwise disregard this) it seems too thin, if I remember right, it's a thick coat made out of layers of cloth and padded with leather, what she's wearing in this picture looks like just a regular cloak

Adalbertus In reply to stringtheory00 [2012-04-14 07:57:25 +0000 UTC]

yeah, that was in theory the mage coat. But I can't draw cloths T_T
