Description Having just got back from Flight Camp with a week and a half of Summer Vacation left, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy get permission from their parents to explore the surface of Equestria. Ever since Fluttershy flew back up to Cloudsdale, she hasn't been able to stop talking about how great everything is on solid ground. Her new best friend, Rainbow Dash, is curious to see what it's really like. They head into Ponyville to spend a some of their allowance on a fresh, ripe watermelon. With one last stroll around town, the two of them haul the giant fruit back up to Rainbow's house. Rainbow's Dad is commissioned to slice the wonderful treat up for the fillies to enjoy. Dash learns that the surface has many great things to offer... especially things like watermelon.

Another adorable commission from my good friend I had a lot of fun coming up with Rainbow's voracious consumption of watermelon, what with the seeds and juice all over the place. She really likes her melon. I also liked coming up with the different ways the two pegasi would be sitting. I think even something as simple as their composure/posture helps to show off some of their personality. It was interesting to try and design Rainbow Dad's Cutie Mark; I jumped in the Generalβ„’ anonymously to get a few anon's take on what it could possibly be. The most believable idea was a star/comet with a multi-colored trail (though given the nature of Cutie Marks in the show, a butterfly on steroids could work just as well). I thought the shooting star fit the bill, so I created a relatively 'accurate' design and proceeded to cover most of it up. Brilliant, I know. (I actually do have a full/separate vector of it; might post it up later if requested).

Another cute piece coming up pretty soon. Keep it classy, ponefriends.

Lauren wanted to have Firefly in the mane six but due to some copyright shenanigans she couldnt so she designed Rainbow Dash.

Yes. And on the description of the picture you make it sound that there are no fruits on Cloudsdale.
So, Earth Ponies only give them vegetables, but not fruit? How does that make sense?

Okay... now I'm more confused.
All foods come from base produce. Like there can't be pizza without Flour. And there can't be Flour without grains to turn it into flour.

So Earth Ponies send them just vegetables but not fruits like Watermelons?

GOd we NEED more of Rainbow's Dad, Rarity's parents are the only one's that have had actual lines in the show.

We SAW Pinkie's and Twilight's parents but what about RD's and FS's?


According to Lauren Faust her original plan was that AJ's parents were killed by timber wolves but in the show it's implied heavily that they're dead.


And goddammit what is Dash's dad like, where is he now, if Dash was picked on in school how badly was her father picked on for being a guy with that mane-style?


And according to Lauren the M6's mother's were based on the ponies of G1 so, I'm pretty sure RD's mother is Fire Fly (if not very similar).


That aside, very nice artwork and depiction of RD & FS's childhoods, I guess Dash's father was a very dedicated stay at home dad.
