Face the Thing That Should Not Be!

Congratulations on going back to college! I hope your courses lead to a rewarding career doing what you want to do with your life. --- People in city: "We're being attacked by a giant pony! Call out the Jaegers!"

I make sneakers for humans. Yeah, I know, weirdest cutie mark in town.

Applejack shipped with the Red Power Ranger. Somehow, I just never saw that one coming.

My Little Dashie: Now comes with a free bonus Fluttershy!

"I know, blue skin ruins effect of camouflage, but what am I gonna do?"

The moment Spike lost all interest in Rarity...

It looks like she's about to kick somepony's butt, lol! Thanks! The wings are tough. I've had difficulting getting them to look good in my own sketch attempts.

Darn! Too late! Your art is absolutely FANTASTIC! If there ever comes a point in time where you're bored with nothing to do (yeah, right, that'll happen...), I'd love to see your version of my bat pony Nephthys Nightshade. Though I do accept and understand that you're stopping requests for the foreseeable future because if you don't you'll have the whole Forum lined up in here.

Sunyatay: A great tremor startled Sunyatay out of watching the creature above them. Atlas was starting to thrash about violently. "Atlas? Are you alright?" she asked, but of course he couldn't hear her over the rumbles and crashes of his pony-made earthquake. "I'm here. Are you OK?" Starshine found her and ran over. "OK!" Sunyatay said, using her telekinesis to throw on her saddlebags, then her cloak, then last but not least, she retrieved the flower Atlas had given to her. She looked over at Atlas worriedly, then up at the flying creature. Is it doing this to Atlas somehow? Nightshade: The "trees" were flailing around more violently, and with a better viewing angle she could now see that they were attached to a body, head, and tail. At first it was difficult to make out shapes, but then... Is that a Day Pony? None of the histories say they are so-- Shouting below. Nightshade turned her head, spotting a small cottage, and a smaller pony. He ran around the cottage, shouting at...whom, she couldn't tell exactly. If there was any response, Nightshade couldn't hear it. Then he ran over to the giant and jumped on his head. "Dragon? Vhere?" Nightshade said, looking around, ready to dive for cover. Of course there was no dragon. Oh. Obviously nothing good could come from the colt panicking the titan unnecessarily. She swooped down and came to a hover well out of the colt's striking distance, keeping a wary eye on the massive flailing legs. They had a much longer reach. "I am not a dragon! You should get clear of him. You are in danger!"

"No, it is good that you spoke up. If you have somehow been given an ability that could warn us of danger, it could save all of our lives. It would be foolish for us to ignore it, at least without testing it first. On Earth, it is good to be skeptical of such things because there are so many charlatans and fools and none who seem to have powers that really work. But here? Here, we have already seen that things work differently than on Earth. Could you please tell us when you sense something in this way? Then, make it a point to notice when your 'sense' is right, and when it is wrong. Then we can start to find out how real it is. It might be that with practice you will get better. If you do not feel comfortable telling everyone, you can tell me. I will not...laugh...at you..." Katarzhyna's voice trailed off as she noticed that the flying creatures were cooperatively carrying things strung out between them. She raised her phone, zoomed in, and started recording. Some were colorful, with long flowing tails that reminded her of exotic tropical fish, except that the swishing forms looked more like hair than fins. Compact, quadrupedal bodies, round heads, and manes. Then she saw the formation in front, and felt a shock of recognition. These weren't just flying creatures, or even flying people; they were fliers. Their formation was precise, their positions evenly spaced. It bespoke professionalism, discipline and pride. Even if there hadn't been the glint of armor to provide confirmation, it was obvious that they were a force. Looking across distance and the barriers of species and even an alien physics, Katarzhyna was seeing others of her own kind. "In the mythology, Pegasus was just an animal, yes? A horse, but with wings? If so, this world is not exactly like Greek mythology. I think we should follow them, to see how they behave. Then we can decide if we should meet them."

@@Sterling Crimson, Thank you for your review of Nephthys Nightshade! Yes, you were correct, Fleudermaus is the pet bat. I'll try and get around to making that more clear in her bio.

"When I grow my mane and tail out a little more, I'll do one of those heart-shaped pony poses!"

I like her! A couple name suggestions off the top of my head: Rap Scallion (if she's into hip-hop) Olivia Twist I tried to come up with something Russian-sounding, but didn't have any luck. What is her cutie mark? Is that a throwing-star, or a compass rose?

*Watches cartoon below* I'm a cat made out of LSD!

Oooh! I gotta jump in here and make a request for Nephthys Nightshade! Name: Nephthys Nightshade Age: Mare (about the same age-group as the Mane 6) Gender: Female Mane Style: Nothing specific. Aim for a Gothic vibe if you can (but not grimdark). If no inspiration strikes, you can use her Pony Creator pic on her bio for inspiration. Mane Colour: It's currently dark purple and lilac (approximately), but if you can conjure a better color scheme... The general idea is to have some reminiscence to the "Bride of Frankenstein" look, but without that specific hairstyle; more free-flowing in style, but with the dark-with-light streaks color scheme. Tail Style: It's currently free-flowing. The image I have in my mind is "kinda swirly," like vortices of fog and shadow in the night. If you come up with a brilliant idea, feel free to try it out. Tail Colour: Same as her mane. Species: Bat Pony. "I don't do Alicorns," lol! Eye colour: Green, with slit-pupils. Pose: Something dramatic. Cutie Mark: Her cutie mark is a pony skull with elaborate carved/etched decoration. Don't worry about the decoration if the scale of the drawing won't accommodate it. In the (probably) unlikely event that the scale will accommodate design, or if you decide to pose her with a skull she's carving (it's a funerary practice in my Bat Pony headcanon I wrote for her background; see her bio), you can look through some of these for inspiration. Thanks in advance! I look forward to seeing your interpretation of Nightshade! :D

"That's a strawpony argument! It's invalid!"

FUS RO yay!

The day someone slipped some LSD into Feld0's Mountain Dew.

"They made this propaganda poster for me. Could they caption it with something about my honesty? My hard work? My down-home charm? NO. I am disappoint, y'all."

Could you please review my OC Nephthys Nightshade? I do plan on drawing an original pic of her one of these days so I can transcend the limits of Pony Creator, so I'm particularly open to suggestions on her appearance and color scheme. Thanks in advance!

I have a couple versions of this character in the works, so please don't close the contest yet.
