    Bonjour @Shi-Shimmer!

    You chose the right place to be yourself. I didn't find a better place for years ^•^

    How are you feeling?

    in General Discussion

    Feeling great actually.

    Ended the week without unfinished plans, answered all the forum inbox, had time to do things I enjoy during the weekend so even extra monday paperwork in office does not annoy me as usual.:jazz-hooves-please:

    Thank you for attention, anonymous pony. Love you :PIPPIPHURRAY:

    Présentate (Introduce Youself)

    One of the goals of this club is practice of Spanish language and this topic is nice place to start. Introducing yourself is the most native way to start using any language.

    I guess, It's my turn.

    Buenas, ponis.

    Mi nombre es Crypty. Soy un unicornio viajero. Me gustaría aprender español para viajar y visitar más países.

    Profesores @Arrlong28, @Starlight Serenade, corrígeme si es necesario por favor.

    How does your OC/Ponysona represent You?

    in Sugarcube Corner

    Crypty Scribbles is definitely my ponysona. He has complicated history of creation.

    Firstly it was merely name Crypty and pfp of changeling. Later I made a changeling character for art trades with other artists. But changelings were evil back then, so I made a unicorn for simple roleplay interactions with forummates. Unicorn with the same color scheme and features taken from changeling, like screwed horn and spots where changelings have their evil holes... And yes, he was secretly reformed changeling ^•^.

    As Crypty was created for simple having fun with friends, he was literally my mask, my reflection in this fictional world. So when I had personal crisis years ago I just felt that Crypty has gone... As I thought forever. Weeks after I left the fandom and forum feeling that I have no place here.

    This year I just felt that Crypty came back. I even imagined stories he could tell, about the time we were separated. Of course, it was reflection of my own life last years.

    After that Crypty is a rich character with own wishes and needs. He gives me power to see the magic in routine of daily life, long forgotten feeling from childhood, but also I feel he can leave me again if I will ignore needs of this part of me. Now he wants his own pony friends as my current RL friends are nice people, but they can't see and share that magic.

    What made you happy today?

    in General Discussion

    My vinyl turntable got fixed so I can listen some of my records.

    Plus, had time to make an outline for some requested artwork ^•^ It should be fun to finish it as I'm experimenting with different drawing workflow.

    Have you ever been in a fight?

    in General Discussion

    I have been the biggest kid in jr and mid school. I was afraid to harm other kids unintentionally and feared nobody.

    But in hi school was some new bullies, full of testosterone and skilled in street fights so as big nerd who don't know how to socialize I was bullied and got my ass kicked a lot. One day in 10th grade I had my nose broken in another fight. Blood was everywhere. I decided that next time I will not hold myself and it shall be not my blood... And some God damned miracle happened, I have never been in fight since then.

    Maybe my broken nose gave me dangerous appearance or something in my actions and face expression changed but nobody ever tried to threat me physically. Arguments happened sometimes tho.

    That's how I discovered a magic of mindset and use it often to program myself.

    I still keep my body strong and trained and clothes comfy to be prepared to kick some asses not because I'm going to do it ever but because I know, the day I'll stop being ready, something bad may happen.

    How are you feeling?

    Maybe just a little frustrated :twi:

    When it comes to drawing It takes a lot of mental gymnastics so to speak to actually get started though even when I do I don't seem to stick to it for very long, I might attempt to draw a pony at best, I'm a bit unhappy with my current rate of practice being a few speratic scribbles per week especially since I've only seen minor improvements in my ability but not much improvement in consistency over a number of years.

    I don't fully understand this friction I have with drawing, its a skill I want to develop but being bad at it and pushing though that is a struggle, and I often find myself seeking distraction from it in YouTube videos and such which definitely isn't helping.

    Ooooo maaan, I understand you so much! There's couple trix to reduce the friction exist.

    The fist advice is: stop trying your best! Simplify. Be swift. It's the case when quality is based on quantity.

    The second: don't push yourself. You should have fun from the process! Otherwise you will end up procrastinating on Youtube.

    The nice way to have a practice and double the fun is to join some challenges like this: https://mlpforums.com/topic/195464-huzzah-i-challenge-thee-crazy-pony

    But remember, dirty daily doodles are better for practice than clean and perfect weekly paintings.

    Now, when I think about it, I like a lot of media content (cartoons and comics) like W.I.T.C.H, Totally Spies, Phoebe and Her Unicorn et cetera et cetera.

    I guess because I enjoy well developed female characters and cute things ^з^

    Well, at least another idea to the trash...

    That's cool that you aren't afraid to try your ideas. I have plenty of them and try one by one. For each working idea I send several to trash.

    Equestria Girls Cover Band?

    in General Discussion

    Ok then. What the 'good idea' means for you?

    Will it pay off? No. Audience is small and keeps shrinking.

    Will it be fun? I don't know. It depends on group you will assemble. If getting fun is the main goal, just remember that you do it for band members firstly, not for community in general.

    Equestria Girls Cover Band?

    in General Discussion

    · Edited by Count Gribouillis

    I think It's ambitious goal. You will need to assemble group of 7(!) people who:

    - into MLP

    - not afraid of being public

    - skilled in music

    - females

    - preferably can meet IRL to jam

    I don't wan't to tell ya it's impossible, but it may require really much work from you. Even if you will remove gender limitation and organize everything online.

    I feel overexcited. :zipp-wut:

    The week was overwhelming emotion wise and my nervous system need some cooling down. Art is nice way to let the steam out. Maybe I should try yoga as well as gym isn't enough anymore. I'm glad that the weekend is ahead :PIPPIPHURRAY:

    Oh wow, I didn’t expect to see this here! I remember playing Night In The Woods years ago. It had a nice little ambience.

    The soundtrack is just as nice as I remember, and I also recall playing that RPG minigame. XD

    It's nice to meet anyone, who appreciates this game ^з^ For me NITW is soundtrack of autumn and gives me strong Halloween vibe. Also this short and cozy game has some nice friendship lessons ^×^.
