Description
Original (used with permission): [link] by the very talented *InuHoshi-to-DarkPenWow! Okay. This took much much longer than I expected, but I'm really happy with the outcome. I personally think this may be my best (and most ambitious) vector to date.
I would like to thank a few of the #MLP-VectorClub admins for putting up with my countless revisions and *ahem* polite requests for input. I would also like to thank =flutterguy317 personally because he had to export this one for me as for some reason Inkscape refused to work with me.
Alternate Versions
Wallpapers: 1366x768 , 1920x1080 (let me know if you want another size, I'll try and do it)
Rainbow Dash (no background): [link]
Vector Details
Time Taken: Roughly 12 hours on-and-off
Program: Inkscape
Number of Nodes: 1690
I've made this vector with an as yet unreleased version of =flutterguy317 's Ponyscape. It's a modification of Inkscape 0.49 which I am beta testing. There are certain features of it that I've used which you won't be able to see in the current versions of either Inkscape or Ponyscape, so if you do want to be able to play around with the SVG, you'll need to go here and download Ponyscape V0.2. or just +Watch =flutterguy317 because he's told me he will be releasing future updates through deviantART

It could be just me, but I personally like the original one better. It shows more emotions. You did a great job vectoring it though. Makes it more bold!

The lines are so smooth!
I never really could imagine my art vectored, I thought it's impossible to do, because of the fuzziness.
But you did a great job, PinkieDash! Well done.^^

Yay!
I'm so glad you liked it! It definitely wasn't easy! I could have spent a bit more time and figure out how to do textures to make it look a bit more like yours, but after 12 hours on it I just wanted it done!
The fuzzy did make it tricky, but I'm happy with it and it's great to hear you liked it too!

This one and the original pretty much look the exact same.. except there's no blur and your lines are finer.. Yeah I know vectors are supposed to look the same as the original, and you did a great job with it, but it's kind of sad how this made it to the front page and not the original. And idiots who don't take time to read the description think you created this.. And you didn't..
She also looks a bit dull because you didn't add the sad eyebrows. Pretty good job I guess. But I don't see why there would have to be a vector of this though.

>> it's kind of sad how this made it to the front page and not the original
The original painting is 6 months old. It may very well have made it to the front page back when it was posted, I don't know, I hadn't heard of the artist back then. There's also the issue of how the algorithms choose what to display on the front pages of the 'popular' ones. If it's a little-used category that you submit to then it's got a much higher chance of getting on it. The category that this one's in isn't used very much at all whereas the one the original is in is very populated.
>> I don't see why there would have to be a vector of this though
There doesn't have to be, I just wanted to do it.
I don't make vectors of other people's sketches or drawings to upstage them, I make them because I love the originals and want to pay homage to them. I don't make vectors to get myself known, I do it because I enjoy it and I find it can be relaxing.

Wow... first time I looked at it... the word 'Rainbow Factory' just appeared in my mind.
Then I thought about when Discord corrupted her mind o.o Hmm...
Beautiful art btw ^^ It really portrays the emotion. ~ Kitsoru

Wow, the shadows blend flawlessly into the rest of the piece and it's a unique concept! It makes you wonder what the story behind this is.

There are a few things about it that feel off, like the bat looking wings and lack of any real depth to the dissolving colors, but i love the idea overall. It looks really cool and her eyes are my favorite part.

ShadowdancerXari [2012-12-22 13:42:05 +0000 UTC]
awesome <3
a different side of the brony fandom...
It reminds me somehow of the idea behind the fanmade Yowane charas of the Vocaloid fandom.
But still, a very nice picture. I would love to see more of the MLP crew in this kinda style <3
