Description Derpy Hooves would totally make an excellent Dr. Stantz!




Finally finished! Only took me about 2 months whenever I had the rare free time at the office. haha

At least I learned some stuff along the way:


* Lightning is hard to make.

* Backgrounds can actually be fun to paint afterall.

* I still haven't figured out the trick to make ponies look Hasbro official. (Especially in the front on view.)

* Discord might be my favorite character to make.. all of his different colors are a pain, BUT he's so maleable, I think it doesn't really matter how you draw him, he'll still look distinctly Discordian.

* And my super old desktop computer doesn't appreciate me working on a drawing that has over 100 layers in it.



EDIT (03/05/12): Tweaked a couple things that were bothering me. (Derpy's face in panel 4, Rainbow Dash's wings in panel 2, etc.)

EDIT (03/27/12): I keep tweaking as I learn different things. haha Anyway, fixed Derpy and RD's bodies in Panel 1 and finally changed up Derpy's head in Panel 2 that's been bothering me the whole time. I like this expression on her a lot better. ^_^

Discord: Ponies!, Discord, the God of Chaos has returned! Choose and perish!
Derpy: What do you mean, choose? We don't understand!
Discord: Choose! Choose the form of the God of Chaos
Rainbow Dash: Oh, I get it. Real cute! [to the others] Whatever we think of– if we think of J. Edgar Hoofer, J. Edgar Hoofer will appear and destroy us, okay? So empty your heads, don't think of anything. We've only got one shot at this.

I love how poor Flutts is hiding back there! I'm guessing that she's Winston, because much as I love her I cannot see sweet Fluttershy as Egon.

I REALLY need to watch Dr. Who... all of my friends who have watched it constantly go on and on about what a crime it is that I haven't as well. lol But at least I get a lot of the references and know what a tardis is. That stands for something right? haha

You know, I kept contemplating something to change that line to but just could never settle on anything. So, I stuck to the original line from Ghostbusters. Besides, noone dies.. they just get shocked for a minute.
