Description I drew ponies. And they don't look wolfish/crappy. I'm so happy... Dashie here is probably my fourth try at drawing a pony....save for the few crappy doodles I did before this.

I'm not exactly sure what the story behind this is. This is another one of my "random bursts of inspiration," I guess. There are, however, many potential explanations as to why she's somberly standing out in the rain. So many stories to go with....

And oh my goodness, Rainbow Dash's mane is so fun to color :3. I know all I did was take a color and draw a jagged, fluffy outline and fill-bucket it, but it was still rather fun...and colorful. I had to take a peek at a reference though, for the colors on the back part of her mane. The front part I have memorized (though I don't understand why the color order is always switching in the show. Sometimes the yellow, orange, and red goes from left to right like that, and sometimes it's right to left. I don't really get that.)

Oh, and sorry watchers, about the ponies... heh.. Then again, I think some of you guys actually like ponies...so, this is either awesome, or scary. *shrug* T'me, it's awesome

So, yea, what d'y'all think?

Narrator: And without a reason to crow, poor Rainbow Dash left the village to look for work in the city. Then came the rain, and now everyone lives in fear, sadness, shame, and guilt because of Maleficent.

I was wondering if I could have your permission to use this image?

I have an upcoming story on Fimfiction and still need cover art.

Here's my account if you need any more data: [link]

Ah! Pardon me for my extremely late reply; I haven't checked my Deviantart in quite awhile. You can most certainly use this, though I'm quite certain you've already found something suitable in the meantime.

Sorry about that ;_;

Yay! You drew Dashie!

I see you like rainy settings, don't you? I see that a lot- therefore you're good at it.

I'd say her ego's dragging her down here, or something else having to do with her feeling sorry for herself. She needs a friend in that pic. ;_;

Yes! I drew Dashie!

Rainy settings are awesome :3. They're so..sad....and... dramatic...and FRICKIN BEAUTIFUL

Hm, I was thinking something a bit more dramatic. but I can actually see both of those...Mmm...maybe she's failed her friends or something.

She does need a friend.. ;_; :_; ;_; I was thinking of drawing in Applejack, but I didn't. :3.

I'm glad you drew her, she's probably my fave. Or the royal ponies. Now THAT would be fun!

Speaking of which, it was storming like a madman yesterday. Like, tornado weather. This pic reminded me of yesterday. But I LOVE storms. The scarier the better. If I see a tornado, this will be my reaction:

I thought about that, someone in the picture, that is, and I was thinking about how
Applejack would fit in. I mean, would they just be staring at each other? XD But heh, it's sad enough already.

Rainbo Dash is my second favorite :3. She's really awesome (and rather fun to draw. :3) However, Applejack is best pony.

Ooh,the princesses are realy awesome as well!

Wow, really? A huge storm? Nice! It's blazing hot down here! Our weather's like, 103-106 degrees regularly! Though, i think if you see a tornado, y'might wanna, y'know.....run?

Yea, this picture seems better with just Rainbow, to me. Though I could draw some sad thing with AJ and RD later. Dunno. I love those two :3. Their friendship is really cool. And Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash are actually pretty close buds as well, I've noticed.

What I really like about this pic is how I drew Rainbow Dash's face. What'd'about you?

PrinceOfArc In reply to KangaeOkami [2012-08-06 23:58:54 +0000 UTC]

Lol, in YOUR opinion. But we're both inclined to agree that the princesses are kick-butt. XD Which makes me wonder, why aren't there princes?

Yeah, it was 100 degrees by us for a while too. Like, horrible. And we don't have a pool. Heh, it makes up for it in snow. XD And yeah, I'll run.... towards it!

I did notice her face first, for sure. She seems really depressed. Plus rain, bam! If she didn't look sad to me, she'd seem bored. She looks either really depressed, or severely bored. Haha.

Pah. THOU SHALT BE SENT TO TEH MOON FOR THY DISAGREEMENT. And yes, princesses ftw. And there aren't princes because...well...I guess their mom didn't have any sons..? Or the fact Luna and Celestia are over a thousand years old and can't find a date? Or the fact that I think it's disturbing that some people ship Twilight and Celestia? (She's her teacher! She's like a mother figure! She's known her since she was a little kid! O_o. That just on't work! And shipping Twilight with Luna just weirds me out, because all I can see and ever will see is a small friendship vibe like "thanks for helping me out, man." And Twilight kind of taught Luna friendship...so she's like a teache, too...) Or...the fact that there is an annoyingly large ratio of mares to stallions? (the only male characters with any relationship dynamics to anybody are Spike and Big Mac. And Spike's not even a pony. T.T. And shipping Big Mac just doesn't work, because he doesn't really have any sort of relationship with anybody but Applejack. And sh'es his sister, so....) Which annoys me because you can't find any heterosexual shippings in MLP when there are no guys to ship. I mean, sure, there's Soarin', and he talked to Rainbow Dash once or twice, and Rainbow Dash saved his pie and saved his life, but there is pretty much zero interaction. (you'd think he'd say 'thank's for saving my life back there, Rainbow Dash. T.T. Wanna hang out sometime?' but nope....and they could build a very interesting plot with that...

That's kind of a fail on the creator's part, in my opinion. Even if it was originally a girls' show, y'gotta have guy characters. YOU MUST. BECAUSE THEY EXIST. AND IT WOULD GIVE A NICE VARIETY. Not to mention it could make for some interesting episodes. *shrug*

Oops, sorry for going on and on 'bout that.

Lol, dude, it's always over 100 degrees here in the summer. Like, every day. Last year we almost broke our record for the hottest summer with our 100-degree streak...but we failed right before we could make it. There was a drought last year, I think. Every summer the creeks dry up. We'll be driving by this bridge near our house and there's barely any water in a creek...you could walk across it completely dry in most areas. But in winter or spring or so it'll flood sometimes. (I remember days where it went over the bridge almost. That's such a huge difference..)

Oh, back to Dashie. Yea, she does seem depressed, but I have a hard time seeing boredom. It's her eyes and eyebrow that really show the sadness.

*is on the moon* *still giggling like an idiot* Heh, that's me. XD

Eweweweweweeweweweweeweew please keep it straight with My Little Pony, at least. -_- It's just.......scary. *shudders*

NO.

But the mares to stallions ratio thing is off too. What, are guy ponies not as awesome? D: XD Heh, a world filled with females would be really really good, or really really bad...... O_O And things aren't realistic with the relationships...Hey, it's still a kids show, we have to remember. *Though I do agree, some interesting/cute episodes would ensue*

Our friends' creek does that. XD We go frog hunting in there, but it was all dried up a couple days ago. T.T
DARN YOU, DROUGHT.

Luna: OH, THANK GOODNESS! SOMEBODY!!! I'VE BEEN SO BORED AND LONELY HERE! DO YOU KNOW WHAT I'VE HAD TO DO ON THE MOON FOR 1000 years?!?! DO YOU KNOW? [link]

Ah...um.... weell .....I have to disagree, some of the ships are actually kind of cute. I mean, I really do prefer them all as best friends, but I don't mind the pairings too much, as long as they stay relatively innocent. I kind of like AppleDash and FlutterDash. Screw you, you're probably freaking out atm. Don't judge. I mean stuff like this. [link] [link] [link] Cute stuff. (wait, it's all FlutterDash friendship. ^.^. Well, I mean stuff kind of close to that.)

I know, right? Which is why whenever there's a guy charrie in MLP I think it cool because there aren't many of 'em. I like Soarin'. Dude, there was a shipping episode. Big Macintosh X Cherilee. The Cutie Mark Crusaders were trying to force them to hook up. It didn't work ^.^.

They could have some interesting episodes with guy and girl ponies. Oh, and there's another canon ship, the Canterlot Wedding, Shining Armor X Cadence. They got married and they did kiss, so the show will go that far. So, there's a little shipping in MLP. They just avoid it with the Mane 6. Come on, creators, a guy or two could really screw their friendship over, let's see it!

I ctually did miss a guy pony...Shining Armor, Twilight's older brother, captain of the Royal Guard. But he was only in the Canterlot Wedding episodes, so I sort of forgot about him. I hope they won't knock him off the storyline after that in season 3.

Niceeeee! Dried up creek ftw! The frogs won't want to live there! Well, that's bad..but....

Poor Dash. With no sun, there's no way anyone could actually see her do any tricks. Storminess on this level is not 20% cooler, and it is most definitely not "so awesome".

Oh, moon trip? Could you get me some cheese? I might want some cheese a thousand years from now, when you come back for vengeance against us. Oh, and tell Luna "hi", from Erebus. Not from Discord, but from Erebus. Not Tartarus. Not Asphodel. Not Elysium. Erebus.

And Kangae, I'm pretty sure that last one is abuse. How often does friendship consist of you attempting to eat the other person's hair, and suffocate them by forcing their face into clouds?
In fact, so is the second one. Trying to dislodge people from their perch who knows how far above the ground, does not constitute friendship. I'm rather sure that counts as attempted homicide.
And I have one thing to say about the last one: FREE HUGS.

And yes, I can turn anything into something entirely unrelated to its purpose or apparent content. I specialize in twisting meanings. Isn't that terrific, perhaps even awesome?

Instantly favorited that. XD That was drop dead funny. XD Hey, on the moon, you're gonna be bored.....

Friendship relationships are fine! :3 I meant....gross ushy-gushy relationships.....I'm always for friendship! And those pictures are just what I mean. They were so cute! And sad.... ;_; That stuff is fine, just.....keep it clean. I think that's a given, though.......

Shipping episode?!?! WHERE?!?! Lol. I'm pretty sure that one was totally made to freak out all the bronies.
"OMG SHIPPINGGGGGGG LIKE OMJAY." Pfft, deep down, that's the initial reaction. XD

The guy ponies look cool! I'm always like this: O0O Specially the opening with Big Macintosh with the cart. He's so adorable. And Soarin' has a cool design.....smoooooooooth B)

OH MY GOD YES! *fistpump* I'd love to see a guy shove into the friendship and cause some drama, but with whom? THAT, would be an EPIC episode. Second only to the last episode of Wolf's Rain. XD *random lol*....I don't even know. XD But I call for a drama episode! .....but they're gonna need some more guy charries for that.......

Froggehs. They're fun to catch, until they hop away! ;_;
