Thank you, everyone! I actually based it off my Rainbow Dash plush haha

Thank you so much Fluttershy is my favourite pony by far...I've watched enough of the episodes now to make a decision! But I do love Rainbow Dash's design.

Hi everyone! 

I thought I'd draw you all something in Illustrator - Rainbow Dash! I hope you like it

Ignore the thumbnail at the bottom, does anyone know how to edit it out? :S

Thank you all! Sorry for responding late - been busy working. You're all so kind! So glad I came here *hugs*

Just finished watching the first two episodes and I love them! It's nice to see their personalities and the designs are so beautiful!

Hi everyone,

I'm still new to this fandom, and have yet to watch a lot of the series (but it is wonderful!). Apologies if I am posting in the wrong forum but I wondered how frequent/popular are conventions? And what are they like?

I've never even been to comic con but I hear these places have a lot of MLP fans too. It would be interesting to go along someday

Thanks!

You guys are too kind thank you all. The images you've posted are really sweet, too! 

Thanks all for your kind comments - I feel at home already! I can't wait to carry on watching the series

Thanks all! It's lovely to meet you

Aww thanks everyone! I'll be sure to PM if I need to ask anything

welcome to the forum, awesome to have ya!

nice to see some more open-minded people joining, to be honest a lot of people are really sceptical on something like this, so kudos for opening your mind!

 

also, i'm sure you'll fit in perfectly! nothing but friendly people on here.

hope to see you posting around! /)

Yes...many people seem to jump to conclusions when I mention the series (and its fanbase), but I can only see people enjoying the show and sharing their ideas, stories, art...etc. It's really nice, and the world needs more of it. It can make life difficult when people ask me what my interests and fandoms are but you just have to be yourself and the right people will respect and appreciate you! luckily I have many creative friends who love the show also. 

Hello there!

Thank you for your welcome it's good to see such a close-knit community for such a well-loved series. As a kid I watched the original MLP, so I guess I'm not totally new haha!

How did you find MLP Forums?: Through a friend

How you became a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: After seeing all the hype and wanting to learn more - the art style appeals to me!

Hi there everyone! 

I'll start by saying I've not watched much of MLP, but I aim to! I adore the art style, animation and characters. I understand I have much to catch up on and enjoy as I continue the series.

In all honesty, I was skeptical about being involved with MLP to begin with after seeing so much negativity aimed at the fanbase. As it turns out, a friend of mine who I'd known for years came out as a brony and then I realised I may have misunderstood. To see how much happiness the show brought him made me happy. I'd also watched the 'Bronies' documentary on Netflix, and I honestly loved seeing how so many creative people came together with so many shared interests. As a girl who is into games, I understand how hard it can be for people to judge based on interests!

I am a trained animator/illustrator, so I have a lot of admiration for the work that goes into MLP. The animation is beautiful and really inspirational. I grew up on Playstation games such as Spyro and Crash, so instantly felt drawn to the characters and their art.

Anyhow, this looks like a fun place to be, a great community to be a part of and I look forward to getting to know you all!

Laura.
