Description Rough sketch and my submission for week 71 of the #MLP-ATG-Alumni spooky ponies and Nightmare Night frights.

Been way too long since I submitted to the group.

Kind of wondering, what do the Cordia ponies do for Nightmare Night? Well, they hang out with their treepony friends, of course.

Nice Fluttershy picture! It's good to see her out and about on Nightmare Night for a change.

At first I was like "Is the lack of clothes part of the festivities?"

...and then I realised that ponies don't normally wear clothes. I guess you confused me since you've always drawn her in uniform Cool idea to have the bicorns hanging out with the treeponies - I really like the whole idea of Cordia so it's nice to see you expanding on it again!

The atmosphere in the picture definitely makes it feel like Nightmare Night, with the shadows, the lamplit street and the purple sky. Awesome work as usual! Keep it up!

Ah, so that's what Twin Stars was surprised about. Evidently she didn't realize that particular tree was a treepony.

Looks like you've combined the Squeeze art style with your lighting/shading style. They seem to fit very well together. It's nice to see you submitting to #MLP-ATG-Alumni again, as well.

Funny, since she's normally wearing clothes before, it actually struck out to me, "oh wow, she's not wearing any clothing" despite the fact ponies "don't normally wear clothes". *ahem* er anyways.

TREEPONY yeaaa- oh I just noticed the little 'hi -smileyface-' there xD

I like the OC designs there in the back, they help add a touch of color without offsetting the main balance too. Drawings awesome as usual! the only thing I'm really noticing is that the ground perspective is a bit off due to Twin Star's ground plane, placement of horizon line (sky meets land = eye-level) and ground details (such as the scribbles near the background OC's being thinner vertically). It'd work fine if there was hills 'though it's not well hinted at.

*pairing Twin Stars with Broken Dawn, don't mind me*

She's off duty and I totally couldn't think of a costume <_< =>_>; *cough*


Yeah, treeponies! They're already a little spooky, and they really haven't gotten any attention since Dash/Twi and gang waved goodbye to 'em, so.

Has yet to be depicted but I imagine a good few of them moved from their home forest and now help tend to the still yet depicted Cordian orchards/forestries. I'm not sure how they feel about the whole making-stuff-out-of-wood thing, but they don't seem to mind?

Next thing you know, some of the buildings in Cordance will sprout limbs and wave to you as you go by.


>_>; =<_<;; Darnit Shooting'! Thanks for the feedback though
