Description
"...The first time I saw Earth from high orbit, something just clicked. Everything you've ever known. Everyone you've ever met. It's all down there...
Everything, on a ball of dirt the size of your fist. Or in Dash's case, the size of her hoof...."
Inspired by:
It's a great read, and I hope he finishes it eventually. Rainbow Dash doesn't get humbled by much, so this scene was especially powerful for me. I have ideas for a few more pieces for the story, but I think I'll work on something new for now.
This was my first project with digital painting, and I enjoyed it a lot. The view-port was based on a view-port the ISS, and I tried to make the continents on the planet (What is the name of the planet anyways? Is it Equestria?) at least somewhat follow the official map of Equestria. I'm pretty happy with it, but of course I always will find more problems (Dang shadows...). Oh well, my number one rule is that it doesn't have to be perfect.
I plan on making more, but let me know what you think about this one.

Maybe we Arrow fans could form a club or something.
There are lots of adventures to be had.
We could even update the story having Twilight as the winged princess.
"Why is the map having our markings go up? That doesn't make an sense!"
Or randy could get stuck on Equestria trying to get back.

"....and so my unicorns developed manual nuclear power. For the life of me why didn't they tell me the hadn't invented an automatic control! Please help. Help me build a control system for an atomic powerplant.I need this to begin developing fusion drive. Don't let Princess Sun shut it down! Intercede for me! You owe me Twinkle Butt!"Randy.

It would be pretty cool to expand the universe some. It's got some really good Sci-fi concepts I've never seen or thought of before, and it would be really fun to imagine how more humans would react to Equestria. Admiral Tigerclaw did update his story a couple days after I put this painting up, so I would at least allow him to finish his story with Randy. But yeah, I don't see why there can't be a club. I'd look into it.

I mean, it begs the question:
Are our astronauts prepared for the normal?
Senerio: Anthem, by Ray Bradbury.
I want to talk some more about this.
Want too?
Tell me how it goes. I have no idea where to look.

Message me whenever you want! I'll try to respond in a decent amount of time.
As for a club, the only big groups I've seen have surrounded Fallout:Equestria. I would have no idea how to start up something like that.

Thank you.
Aside from wanting Arrow 18 to update it would also be nice if he could update Sparke's notes.Its nice to see the perspective on that side.
I just learned italicization accidentally pressing control and function!

If you don't mind, I'd like to message with notes. I sent you one. I agree though. I hope he updates soon.

Looks nice. Lots of fine detail, your shading is really well done. It's nice to see a different art portrayed for fan art of the show. I haven't gotten round to reading Arrow 18 yet but I do plan on it.

Thanks for your comment. I've read a ton of fanfiction, so some or maybe even most of my art will probably be trying to give life to the scenes in those stories that are powerful or just plain awesome. I'm sorry for any spoilers I give away while I'm at it haha. Arrow 18 was a fun read, even if it doesn't look like it might get finished.
