Description And here is the last of our ponies. Dash is my favorite pony right behind Applejack. I love her competitive nature and admire her spunk. She's a fun-loving pony with an attitude. Besides, what's not to love about that rainbow mane and tail?

Her cutie mark also proved to be a bit of a challenge. Overall, I'm really pleased with how she came out. I actually almost scrapped the sketch because I was so frustrated with it, but it came together pretty nicely in the end.

Ahhh, I remember when Rainbow Dash didn't have wings. xD
But she looks adorable in this style nonetheless. You did a very good job.

Haha thanks

I never really got into the series where Dash didn't have wings. There was something about it that just didn't appeal to me, although I loved the manes and tails those ponies had

No problem.

Well, when those ponies were out it was in I was a kid. I still have almost all my ponies. I got rid of a few at a yard sale, but I still have my rainbow dash.
They had the best manes. ahaha. I loved to brush them or put them in weird hairdos.

OMG!!! you draw SOOOO well my horses are all crappy... anyways they all end up looking like weird fat cows... that have 3 legs... most of the time the legs look weird on mine. You were able to capture the sturcture of the horse really well anyways...

Aww, thanks.

And just keep working at it. I've been drawing for years, and I'm still trying to improve. It just takes time, patience, and a lot of practice There are lots of great tools out there to help artists get better in their work, including lots of great stock images for reference use here on dA. If you have any specific questions, feel free to note me and I'll help if I can.

Dash is my favorite by far! But I love Applejack's laid-back country style too. She's way under-appreciated.

Most of MLP fans, including me, favours Applejack and Rainbow Dash...
Probably cause they're the least girly characters in the show, if you compare them with other 4 manes.
And don't get me started with their shippers... ugh... trust me, there are wayyy better couples than cracky Appledash.

Applejack is an old favorite from my childhood, and Rainbow Dash reminds me a bit of myself. These are the two, besides Twilight Sparkle, that I relate to the most, so I think I kind of rank them based on who I relate to the most. Although, I do adore Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie.

I'm not a fan of any of the pairings with the main ponies, really. That's just not what the show or MLP is about. But, as with any series, I know people are going to ship
