Description Yes, yes I did originally plan to have Sunburst stuffed in the closet in a humorous way, but this was funnier and a bit less predictable!

As a side note, references for pony skeletons are really hard to come by, I ended up having to base it on Rainbow Dash being shocked by lightning from 'Newbie Dash'.

Which is exactly what you'd expect Sunburst's skull to do if you cleaned off all the flesh including ligaments.

what about the horn?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

fotland42 In reply to monterrang [2018-04-08 22:51:45 +0000 UTC]

It's a common misconception that a unicorn's horn is a part of their skull. In actuality the horn is composed primarily of keratin, and contains only a small bone core which is removed from the skull by around two centimeters in an average unicorn. Once you clean off all the flesh, the horn falls right off even if you don't decompose the keratin. It's surprisingly easy to lose it at that point.

i have a skeleton on my office i always get comments about it from everyone.
it also has become a joke item through the company, you know i enter my office and its gone just to find it moved 10 meters and put in a chair with a bunch of food.

Trixie understands the pun but why do you keep nightmare night decorations in your closet instead of the Attic like most ponies?
Ummmm reasons. Sunburst I don't think it's going to fit. (pop) Oooohhhh thats the stuff. Now just need to add the decals and there your set of War hooves 4k is ready. Β

"references for pony skeletons are really hard to come by"
really, mate?
Β  Β  Β 
and these:Β anatomy of a fluttershy by CosmicUnicorn Β Β MLP: Friendship is Death Magic by briannechughes

and this: derpibooru.org/99456?q=skeleto…

Many styles - cartoon and realisitc... and a 3-minute search... and there are many more out there. Β Β 

On a side note, I don't know how "skeleton in a closet" is less predictable. It's a common idiom. Sunburst or Trixie in the closet would actually be less predictable and definitely funnier but eh...

bobthedalek In reply to Pony-Berserker [2018-04-02 19:28:13 +0000 UTC]

It appears my search terms were possibly a little too refined! But then again, I was only searching for screen caps from the show itself. Thanks for the reference links though, on the very slim chance I have to draw a pony skeleton again in the future they'll certainly come in handy.

I know "skeleton in the closet" is a common idiom, but it's certainly less common to me art-wise than drawing Sunburst or Trixie bursting in on Starlight in an awkward moment. However, that being said, it was too good to turn down:

yeah, I needed to draw a pony skeleton in 2014Β 
and I was surprised I could find a lot of references at the time... This fandom has everything covered
Btw, I think the comic title gave me a subconscious tip regarding the punchline and that's why it seemed predictable.

Names are always the last thing for a piece for me, which is why the majority of them seem pretty blunt. But it beats calling them all "Untitled(insert number here)"

I think misleading or unrelated titles are good, though.
Once I had literally no clue how to title a comic so I used a somewhat random cricket expression Β Edged And Taken Β Oddly enough, it worked just as fine as naming it "wings" or something :VΒ

Also, you need to make a reference to, Mr. stick in the mud being Sheldon from Big Bang theory, and Trixie being dressed up as Penny from Big Bang theory. Because let's be honest people out of Big Bang theories cast which one is obviously Penny. After all, we all know that starlight is Bernadette, right down to the homicidal tendencies and being short.(And then dictated and plotting and cruel and all my God, that means sunburst is Howard! Also, somehow I made all the twilight and Trixie Schippers happy.)
