Description "Gotta make mummy proud!"

I haven’t sleep more than four hours during the last two nights and I’m dead tired from work. How in Luna’s name did I finish this within less than half a day!? Can someone explain!?

Anyhoof… had this in mind for a while, and had I known it would take so little time I probably would have done it sooner. It’s a colorization of KS4U’s fanart of Nyx, popular MLP original character of PenStrokePony, from the (in)famous fanfic "Past Sins" which I happened to love.

But, differing from pretty much any other work of mine, this was done completely in Adobe Flash without any help from Photoshop and with the intention to mimic as loyal as possible the style of the show. I hope everyone thinks I’ve done a good work there.

The fanart itself is about Nyx learning to fly. Something we never saw happening in her fanfic, but damn it, it should! So whoever is up for writing that can go and claim this picture for their fic.

So with that said and done, hope everypony likes!

Edit: Cutie Mark makes it 20% Cooler!

Kinda funny that you'd say people hate it when you look at the like-dislike ratio

Heh, well, me neither. Okay, I can see where SOME complains come from. I love Past Sins, but I don't believe it to be perfect. But overall, the hatred it gets often feels ridiculously exagerated.


But among us who enjoyed the fic, let's just enjoy it.

There actually wasn't really anything I actually disliked about the fanfic, there were however a couple things that did bug me at the time, so I can see where you are coming from.

Enjoy it and treasure it we shall

She was practically born from a SPELL! And the only "mother" she's got is an adoptive one.
