Description The Elements of Harmony take a quiet moment to relax after defeating yet another threat to Equestria. Appleloosa was the site of this great battle, but our heroes aren't ready to ride off into the sunset just yet. It's time to rest and enjoy a victorious - though exhausted - celebration.

Thank you very much But honestly, this picture took a lot of trial and error, so don't be all that jealous. I have to make a whole mountain of mistakes before I get something good

Well, I guess I can give a lil' spoiler or two. So, my OC is a draconequss has a few friends it's all jim dandy. Then a bunch of crud happens, natural enemies become friends , war BLAH BLAH BLAHDY BLAH. And, this GLORIOUS picture is kinda the outcome. It's still in the rough draft stages, and the first part to many is nearly completed, it might hit Fimfiction soon.

Good job, Everypony. We've managed to recapture Apploosa from Exile Forces. Get some R&R, you deserve it. Dismissed.

Hmm... Perhaps this is an aftermath of one of those mech battles. Massively tough opponent(s). I can see Twilight, AJ and rainbow being the primary assault types while Pinkie, Rarity and Flutters provided support. Thus their slightly less damaged states. As for Twi's eye, I'd say a console blew out. Hot shrapnel can cause some damage. I'd guess Rainbow's a little more out of commission because she took the brunt of the punishment. Probably because she'd use a melee mech. I'm sure I'll come up with more ideas but that's what I have off the top of my head.

Praetor-Dex In reply to PonyEcho [2015-06-28 15:54:29 +0000 UTC]

Reading over the other comments, I think Combining the pony mech and dragon attack stories would do it. They have too many cuts and lacerations for it to be solely dragon damage. In addition the dragon would have to be much larger then their mechs. I wonder, how would you feel about my creating an audio to illustrate the battle before hoof? I've plenty of ideas for the actual battle and voice acting is no problem.

In the original specs for the picture, I was imagining the aftermath of battling a rampaging dragon. But I've left it deliberately open for people to interpret in their own way I love hearing the kinds of ideas this picture inspires

What happened to poor Twiliy's eye?
I hope she's okay.

The rest of the Mane Six don't look very good either.
They deserve a very long rest after whatever they've been through.

PonyEcho In reply to PKBegley98 [2015-04-19 11:50:41 +0000 UTC]

What happened to her is up to the viewer I deliberately left the backstory to this vague so that you guys can decide for yourselves. It's always fun hearing other people's ideas

But yes, they certainly need a good long rest after their ordeal!

PKBegley98 In reply to PonyEcho [2015-04-19 15:42:26 +0000 UTC]

If I was to add some sort of head-canon, I would say that a giant beast-like monster from Tatarus returned to Equestria to wreak havoc. 
The monster would probably look like Ganon from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/z…

And I'm going to say that Twilight still has her eye.

PonyEcho In reply to PKBegley98 [2015-04-19 21:03:12 +0000 UTC]

Nice choice! I approve of this backstory And yeah, even I'm not so much of a monster as to say Twi actually lost an eye!

PKBegley98 In reply to PonyEcho [2015-04-19 23:10:06 +0000 UTC]

Oh my.
Well played Ganon-like monster.
At least it got what was coming for him.
Or this scene is just the start of a long battle, Dun Dun Duuuuuuuuun!

Poor Twilight though.

Too true. Some fights require greater sacrifice than others... at least they all made it out in one piece (mostly)

Really good quiet scene. Pinkie just wants to nom on her cake while Rarity is looking at someone (maybe a more rugged Spike who's offscreen?). Twilight looks relieved to just be alive with ehr friends. Fluttershy the same. Rainbow looks like she might have been truamtized and AJ's comforting her.

Must have been one heck of a battle.

Maybe they fought a Piasa (A Native American bird-like dragon creature of sorts)

Void-Wolf In reply to PonyEcho [2015-04-27 13:22:31 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, they are freaky and dangerous looking beings. I choose them because of Appaloosa's native american setting. They'd probably an ancient monster the buffalo would speek in legend...
