The blood dripping from a small hole in his head... Spike is already gone. All that is left to do is mourn.

I appreciate your work especially because Twilight and Spike are my favorite characters. I hope you can upload more images like this. Β
I wish I could draw like you. Β
Sorry if I bother you, but you know any video or page where I can learn to draw like you?
Again thanks for this picture Β

Aw gosh! Thank you!
As for learning to draw like me, I dunno! I just sort of learned by observing, imitating other styles, and lots and lots of practice. Some good resources for learning to draw:
Noah Bradley's Art Camp (costs money) - This guy works on card art for Magic: the Gathering, among other things. He's extremely personable and great to talk to, and his videos on learning how to draw are extremely instructive.
Chris Oatley's Podcast - Lots of stuff on here about drawing and the drawing industry.
Color and Light , by James Gurney - Hands down the BEST ARTBOOK I have ever had, and the only one I regularly reference. (I referenced it on this picture in fact!) He talks very matter-of-factly about phenomena like why you don't see red at night, or what reflects off snow, or what happens to colors at sunset. It's a little advanced, but I feel like there's so much a person can learn from this book. Also the dude did Dinotopia so obviously he's pretty great.
PurpleKecleon's "How I See Color" - Another great little tutorial about color and light that really helped me.
ConceptCookie - A great tutorial resource!
Other than that, I mostly learn from specific tutorials on deviantart and experimenting. All of my digital painting experience is just trying things out and seeing what works, as well as going through a whole buttload of things that look awful that I never show anyone, haha.Β
I think more than anything what's helped me improve is volume, though: I just draw and draw and draw. I usually draw at LEAST every day but usually I spend most of my day drawing anyway since it's my job, haha. Certainly gotten better at ponies since doing that.Β
Here's a comparison from my very first MLP drawing to my latest!
So there's a lot to be said just for sticking with it.
Anyway, sorry for talking your ear off, haha. I hope it helps!

Why would someone attack Spike?! He's rarely even in the fights!

This time, he stepped up apparently!

Nice! I wonder who the foe is? Do you know, or are you just plain leaving us to our imaginations.

I imagine this:
Twi and Spike went to a faraway land, where ponies are afraid of dragons. The ponies view spike,Β get scared,Β and they attack him.Β Twilight try to help Spike, and that's the story

Thank you very much!
At least on my end, it's just that Feather Moon by Vienna Teng always gets me in a painting mood, and almost always makes a sad picture involving snow come out, haha. But if someone writes a fic off this picture, I'd love to read it, because I want to know too!

I will need to check that "Feather Moon" video out.
Also, if someone makes a fic out of this, could you also let me know? i would want to read it!

I love the composition here, and how Twilight's wings make a dome above the two. Beautiful and emotional.
