The Shadow Stallion

I know to use the paintbrush now. When I did this picture sadly it was too late to change it. I suppose I could redo a picture, but I have already started drawing another picture Im going to work on in GIMP I have been using layers too, I love them. Make editing hair and such that much easier. XD yeah I might should consider Renaming this thread.

Well this was my first GIMP drawing. I've gotten practice though I just want to know what you bronies think of it for a first try on a very complicated program XD Literally had to figure everything out on my own x.x Also maybe some tips and such on how to make something like this better? And feel free to make some redrawings of this character, but please credit me with the character concept and pm me a link. Thats all I ask. : ) Also feel free to post some comments >.< If ya want .3.

I had to stop playing my beloved World of Warcraft because my internet couldn't support it anymore T.T (Over 500 hours of life wasted) Charter's argument is that it wouldn't be considered profitable for them to run a cable out to where I live. I can count at least 30-40 houses within a 1 mile radius of my house. I even offered to let em set up a tower or something in my yard (For either free internet for me or at least a discounted price)

I don't think I can even get it. Charter has a contract for my area and they are only providing the service to the nearby rich people. They're asking for 49,000 $ if I want it. Like I have 49k just lying around. Contacted better business Bureau and they were useless saying "What, they're asking for 49,000 bucks, thats a steal! Fair Deal!" : P So Im pretty much well... for lack of a better word, screwed x.x

Just wish I could see it. Slow internet is killing me x.x

Ah okay, no probs. I thought it was some new internet slang I didnt know XD

Not understanding what ut means x.x

lol yeah, I know. I don't know links anyway, but you did ask. (Honestly I don't think RF is too gruesome. No worse then Lord of the Rings I would say and there are many Orc Decapitations. Sorry, rant x.x)

I have 3 Rainbow Factory-Awoken From Bronydanceparty and WoodenToaster AKA Glaze Where are you and finally we have..... I am Octavia!

Just keep trying : ) Maybe redo this sometime in the future. Perhaps start with telling about the escape and maybe some short flashbacks mixed in of experiences in the factory. Or perhaps even a dialogue with another character. Don't just go on my opinion either, I'm just 1 critic. Listen to others as well, except for the trolls x.x

As soon as they had landed, Blackheart had taken out a strip of black cloth and tied it around the lower part of his face, covering his mouth and nose to give some small protection against poison blood and gas. He hadn't even seen the strange plants until he heard Bulawayo shout. At first glance, Blackheart could tell it might be a bad idea to engage in close quarters. He had no idea what that strange blue gas might do, despite his makeshift gas mask. Instead he drew out his light pistol and held it with both hands, taking shots at the encroaching plants. He was no marksman, but he did hit a few of the plants, though he wasn't sure how much damage he actually did.

Also somepony already made a Rainbow Factory RP that died after 2 weeks x.x Odd, the pargraph before that sentence didn't show up.... again. Well basically there have already been many Fanfics based on the Rainbow factory and they have been written well, no offense meant here, but better. I also made a reference to that Rainbow Factory RP, to show that the popularity of Rainbow Factory isn't very high or at least its not very well known. I do however say, keep trying friend. You can get better at writing with practice (Don't mean to sound like an arrogant prig here) : ) The pacing is odd, jumping back into history and then jumping further back while mentioning the present. You did not necessarily state why he couldn't rejoin his family though it is implied, it would be better to know.

My definition of fear and phobia is.... A fear can be mastered or at least controlled A phobia is a fear that you cannot control. If that makes any sense. Well now I will tell some of my fears. (Some I've mastered though) I used to be afraid of the dark, but I sort of trained myself and now I actually feel safer. I think I've developed a bit of fear being in well lit areas though XD The irony I do think I have the phobia where you are afraid to be alone, but what is ironic is I tire very easily of a few minutes of social interaction. I mean I will feel lonely, but when I start talking to someone I start thinking "I can't wait to be alone again." My mind is hypocritical x.x I do not fear death, but I fear not dying the way I want to die, which is in battle. Old belief and a bit morbid, but I am Nordic Pagan : D I fear/hate spiders. Meaning I get so afraid of them that I just can't help but smash them x.x

You know there is an easy way to bypass that wishing for more wishes rule, right? Just wish for 1000 Genies or 100 wishgranting leprachauns or wish for Celestia/Luna because they have godly powers. Wish 1 To go to a world filled with 2 way portals that go to every fandom or world I love which only I can use Wish 2 allow the portals to let me change histories and such within said fandoms Wish 3 Immortality with a dash of I dont know, Invincibility.

Blackheart sighed as he continued to look out the window. "What happened?... what made the world go so wrong?..." he said quietly to no one in particular. He wondered what had unleashed the chaos that had destroyed the once beautiful world. Blackheart had read many books on what the lands below had been like before this darkness had come. Green fields, flourishing forests, snowcapped mountains, and more. However, that was all just a memory recorded in books. Blackheart shook his head and looked away from the window, it would just make him even more melancholic.

Well their pitch was Skylanders:Spyro's Adventure or something like that. They are using a Franchise's popularity for their own gains. Sadly companies only worry about profits instead of principles.

Basically this is a poll to show how many people on average like or hate skylanders, now before you make your choice let me tell you of mine. Yes, Narcissistic me. I personally hate skylanders for many reasons tied into two characters. Cynder and Spyro. I love them both in their original games, but here.... no... For those of you who don't know, Spyro is a purple dragon from 2 video game series. 1st was just regular Spyro the Dragon and 2nd was The Legend of Spyro series. Now I've been with Spyro through both series growing up. (The first game came out in like 2000.) I've grown up with this purple dragon and he has been somewhat of a childhood hero. I could make a long and sappy paragraph, but Im going to keep this short and to the point. Now just slightly off topic, but still relating to it. Imagine your favorite MLP Character, got it? Now imagine that character being beaten with a baseball bat, ran over by a lawnmower, and horribly disfigured in about a 100 different ways to make them look like a gremlin of their former self that looks like it wants to be put out of its misery. Now imagine that they are given their own show with their name in the title (They are still that disfigured creature) however, at most they are a background character that doesn't really have anything to do with the plot except for the odd cameo. Thats basically what happened to Spyro. I've given my stance that I hate the skylanders series with a passion. But feel free to share your opinions, by pony law I will love and tolerate them.

Blackheart sighed and shook his head. He now had his arms crossed and was leaning against one of the gunship's inner walls. He was becoming a bit impatient and he was still frustrated with himself that he didn't know how to approach any of his other comrades in arms. He did notice that some of the others were also somewhat shy, but most seemed ready to burst into conversation. From his place against the wall, he could see just about everypony or at least almost everypony conversing. He shook his head again and decided to look out a nearby window and watched the chaotic surface of what was once their world shift and change.
