The Thread About Ponies, Logistics and General Weirdness (And Gilda)TV

[Brando-K]

I've only now seen those videos Mint. Good stuff there, I love the Naruto one. (I had no idea that was where the song was from.)

Anyway I'll leave this here.

Night.

 

[Wiegert]

I didn't actually see this this morning.


TwiDash: The Episode, eh (well, not really, but you know it's gonna happen)? I suppose it's fair enough.

I noticed that yesterday. It's funny how certain elements within the stories that some of us have read end up being used in actual episodes.

Writer's Block had a similar synopsis to Lesson Zero, although the story was nowhere near as crazy as the episode itself, and now we have Read it and Weep, which reminded me (and I presume some of you guys) of a certain shipfic.

Celly's hair is a total bitch to do. Like, 10 times harder then Dash's. Now I get Wiegert's problem with it.

That's part of the reason why I saved more than one version of my little coloured Celly drawing, each of which had a different hair style (well, the coloured parts varied slightly).

Yeah, but it's not Canon though.




*Runs*

Just to let you know I'm still arrive, currently drowning in PC issues. Trying to get to the bottom of them and whether it's my connection or the machine itself.

Arrive and well? I was starting to think you had fallen off the edge of the Earth. Computer/connection problems are always a bitch.




EDIT:

Unbeknownst to most people, Filly Smith was a consummate badass (with an M60).




Oh, one of Toro's favourite fics has updated, and so has one of the stories I'm currently reading. I'll have to check that out later on.

The solution? Bin Vista, get 7.

Now this 5/6 year old bus is running perfectly...ignoring the GFC card fan tapping against the South-Bridge heatsink, that is. xD

 

[Tornado]

Twilight actually looks to me like she is really uncomfortable in that, so I don't really find it cute.

...

Sorry.

*checks*

🤬


Not one. Two. I read Those Blue Wings as well. It looks like I'm going to have to start dumping the backend that I had built up while I was freaking out over Pony POV. I already dumped one story I had been following because how much of an asshole the author was being.


Edit:

Spoiler

Ha ha. Gilda get's ambushed by 14 bad guys as a revenge kidnapping. She takes out 7 of them without help. And after Starfall pulled his knife out of the eighth's neck, they double teamed the rest. Then Gilda shot the leader in the nuts with a crossbow (accidentally, admittedly) when he went to run away.

🤬 YES!

The awesome quotient. It is too high!

Edit:

Those Blue Wings was pretty good as well.

[Minty]

Yeah, but it's not Canon though.

You seem to not realize, when it comes to filly Twilight, that honestly makes no difference to me.

...

Sorry.

I can see that, actually, but she looks more confused than uncomfortable to me. And the look of confusion on her face just kind of compounds the cuteness, to me. Not sure why, it just kind of does.

 

[Tornado]

jadenkaiba did another humanized art dump:












His art pretty nifty. I was going to compared it to stuff I've seen in the past (40 year old anime, mostly), but it would basically just be me talking to myself considering how recognizable the references would be to anyone in here.

 

[Minty]

Moved this down here since my edit was after Toro's post.

Really nice piece of art, this.





Those humanized are nice, Toro.






...






...





Now, in wallpaper resolution with a cool looking background.

[Tornado]

Lot of nice little details in that one, squirreled away.






*waits for Mint to color it*


Also, 109571 is something I could imagine being the case.

 

[Epic B]

Well, looks like the CopyGrunt thing is done. I'm gonna stop now. But I will keep the colored text. Color is cool.

Maybe I'll use something other than brown, so a copy Wiegert thing doesn't start.

 

[Wiegert]

I quite like that humanised Celestia, plus I remember seeing some of his previous drawings which were also pretty nice.

The solution? Bin Vista, get 7.

The next time my computer packs up, then, and only then, will I get 7 (or the successor to 7, depending on how long my laptop can maintain it's functionality).

You seem to not realize, when it comes to filly Twilight, that honestly makes no difference to me.

Fair enough.

 

[Minty]

*waits for Mint to color it*

I'd say I'm already halfway there!/spongebob

No really, I did start, but it was only 5 minutes before your post.




EDIT: Just noticed something before I went back to GIMP;

Bunnyception.

EDIT: And I went to the source to make sure I had the full size, found this:

Source
Full size of each of those is :censored:ing enormous.

And he's got a bunch more, too.



Including Octavia:

[Epic B]

Bunnyception.

 

[Wiegert]

And he's got a bunch more, too.

There isn't anything there that I'm overly interested in colouring. I mean, Octavia isn't the most vividly coloured pony, but that Rarity/Princess Platinum is one I could try and do later, or Lyra.

I'll think about it.

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

Can't kick old habits, eh Wiegert?

 

[Wiegert]

Can't kick old habits, eh Wiegert?

I guess not.

That song has been stuck in my head all day.

 

[Minty]

Done:

Source<Original super ginormous resolution.


I wasn't sure about using gradients on the eyes, but I actually like the way that came out.




EDIT:
Suddenly a flood of IRL ponies.

I'm OK with this.



EDIT: For some reason when I try to upload the image it takes forever and then just blanks all of the fields. I'll try again later.

 

[Tornado]

Her coat isn't dark enough. Otherwise it looks pretty good.

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

Stupidly catchy. xD

 

[Wiegert]

Her coat isn't dark enough.

Just about to point that out. The purple needs to be just that little bit deeper, but apart from that, you did a good job with it, especially with the mane.



Right, when I have some peace and quite I'll make a start on colouring this later:

If that turns out well, then I might try my hand at colouring this one:

Source

Stupidly catchy. xD

And then Pinkie opened up a portal. Then some weird 🤬 started happening.

 

[Minty]

Right, I'm not going to have time to fix that until later tonight, though. I actually kind of felt the same way after I tilted my laptop screen back a bit

I really need to remember to adjust these the angle of my screen before I do these things.

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

Probably my 2nd favourite song, just short of SweetieBot's little ditty:

 

[Wiegert]

Lyra's dream of being able to give a 'thumbs up' has finally come to fruition!





Also, Granny Smith 'back in the day':

Am I the only one here wondering where Akira is?

 

[Tornado]

He's taking a sabbatical for a week.

So I heard you like surprisingly unpopular ships.

 

[Brainbread]

I also have a front pic, but she's a little derpy on the front (why does her face and eyes drastically change shape from side to front in the show), so I'm just gonna hide that from general viewing.

But my god, she took a long time. More than twice as long as a pony. Maybe it'll be faster next time I make one.

 

[Tornado]

 

[Wiegert]

Why am I not surprised by Toro's reaction?


I'm not sure how "derpy" Gilda is on the front from those shots you posted, but from what I can see she looks great. Awesome job 👍

She's god a wide gap between her eyes, which is a bit hard to rectify at the moment. I'll likely change up her head shape in the future to help fix it, but I prefer not posting things I actively dislike. The buyer got that photo though, so there is nothing to worry about on that end.

 

[Jim Prower]

That is pretty awesome! should fetch a nice bit. :3

 

[Tornado]

*Mint says Filly Twilight is cutest Pony*

*which is also canon*

She was a commission, not for auction ^^
