  1. I'm friends with a couple people who work at my McDonalds, so it was quite easy for me. I could imagine a lot of people would get weird looks, but you could just easily say they are for a younger sibling of your's. I wonder how they get their toys. They'll probably restock when they reach close to the bottom of the barrel. Maybe they haven't run out of the last ones yet. It seems possible that something like that could happen, but I don't know how they run, so I wouldn't know for fact. Just like I told Rainbow Dashe, tell the cashier you're buying for a younger sibling. I hope you are able to get some soon.
  2. Oh wow, I really like the design for the tail. I think it looks great! Good job Icy.
  3. Pokemon X and Y are trash! I really REALLY need to get this off my chest It would be rude to only list the bad things though. I loved how they introduced the ability to change your design, and the music is pretty good. Nothing superb, but Pokemon music is always great. I would complain about how walking isn't on grids anymore, but that's actually just a choice that you can make. I'll have to stick to the grid-based movement though. Also, Kirby Air Ride is the best Gamecube game, despite what reviews say! Please make an HD version for the WiiU Nintendo.
  4. So far I've only been using .AI files, unless it changed it up on me at some point. Maybe I might have saved it as an .svg without knowing it.
  5. So I discovered at my local McDonalds that they are selling Mlp toys in their kids meals now. A bit disappointed they don't have Applejack, again, but who could say no to Starlight Glimmer! I'm rather curious as to what you guys have so far, or just what you want. Here's a list for an easy to check guide. Pinkie Pie Fluttershy Rarity Rainbow Dash Coco Pommel Suri Polomare Starlight Glimmer So far, all I have is Twilight and Pinkie, but I'm really trying for that Starlight one. So again, what do you guys have? And who do you want?
  6. I'm rather curious as to how you drew the tails to the alicorn. If your not too busy, I would definitely love to see them.
  7. Goodness, that alicorn is definitely scary looking. Are these just headshots or do you have the full body image?
  8. I think they're coming along great! I especially love that second one, and I think the way you draw eyes look amazing!
  9. Oh dear lord, don't let Disney own the MLP franchise. Just imagine all the setbacks that would occur. Disney would be much more protective of letting show staff go to conventions and talk openly about the show The gender stereotypes of pink and blue would be thrust way back in everyone's face Fan projects and creations would be much more prone to be taken down @Leave a Whisper is right about their animation department. I don't want to see the animation team milked out for all it's worth. The merchandising would also have to take a major step back. I don't remember Disney very well for having any great toys. Please, Disney, just keep your entire Frozen thing and don't lay a finger on our beloved show.
  10. So, as my normal routines nowadays is like, I was working on a big detailed picture using Illustrator. Because I use about 4 different computers in my day to work on this single picture, I am pretty much required to carry around a flashdrive. Something strange happened today though. I worked on this image on the 3 previous computers, than got home and begun to work on my fourth.computer. Well, I guess I activated some glitch that caused me to lose all the work I've done earlier that day. I think I might have left the file opened on my computer when I plugged my flashdrive in, causing it to think that was the current one, but I don't understand how that could be when thinking that the flashdrive would have just opened another file. It may have also been caused by the use of older versions of the same program. These are just a few guesses though, as I really don't understand what happened. For now, I'm too unmotivated to work on this, so I'm going to take a break from it for the day. If someone can tell me if I did something wrong here, it would be much appreciated.
  11. I had a dream a couple nights ago that I was not at all prepared for Everfree. What a nightmare.

  12. What do you think it would look like?: Look like could be interpreted as many things. The first thing that comes to my mind is, what does an everyday life in this "Bronydom" look like? The first and most obvious thing would be a common practice among everybody to watch Mlp. It may not be everyday that people watch the show, but the new episode would be as popular as the Superbowl is in America, but with a smaller population. Another thing that must be said is, where would this nation be? Where in the world would there be a nation that would be dedicated to the corporate overlords of Hasbro? It would have to be in some nice area that would be able to be separate from every other nation but still have nice and easy access to internet and TV. Maybe it would be some country that, is today, not very populated but has a lot of land. Who would be the leader, or would it be a democracy?: Oh goodness. Well this seems like it could fall into two very distinct scenarios which would depend on the residents of this country. One side would lead to the country ruled by Hasbro. Hasbro would be able to see this new country as a chance to spike sales in an easy-to-target country and it would seem extremely easy for the company that gives us the thing that runs our country to take over, as people would easily give in. I fear the day a country is ran by a company though. The other hand would probably fall into a type of government easily comparable to Communism, but much less corruptible. This country would run with the full ideology of "Friendship is the best solution" and as such, a large government would be easy to see. The country would not deal out harsh punishment and would be easy to give forgiveness and second chances to the residents. Crimes would be fairly low as the residents would be influenced by friendship. The only real worry about this government would be for a person who is not at all interested in Mlp and friendship to seek an easy control over the land and throw the entire system on itself. Which language would we speak?: This one doesn't seem to need much thought. Of course, English would be the primary language as it is most spoken of bronies, but in an interesting twist, this country would contain a lot of other languages as there are many bronies around the world who do not speak English. English would also be primary as the English-speaking episodes are always first to release before any other dubbed language. This would encourage other speaking people to pick up and learn the heavy speaking language. what would be the national anthem?: The national anthem would probably be super cheesy, lets be honest. With an ideology of friendship, never before seen by any other country, it's got to be something that would need a lot of thought and time put into it for it not to be cringe-worthy. It obviously wouldn't be the theme to Mlp as that would fall under copyright infringement, and something similar would only just pain people. This is a hard one that I can't really speculate on. Would you want to live there?: Would I want to live in a country ran solely on friendship and seeking the best in each other? Heck yeah! Would this kingdom be up to my standards? I don't exactly know my answer to that. If this country was in good relations with it's neighboring countries, I think it would be pretty alright to live in. If not, then I can't say I'd want to.
  13. That sounds pretty complicated. On one hand, it could be a person's interpretation of the character and thus, be an OC. On the other hand, it wouldn't exactly be an OC, but a character of the show. What you have to remember here though, is that the background ponies of the show such as Derpy or Lyra (My example stands prior to the hundredth episode as it's much easier to explain) had characters that were built up by the fandom, and because of so, had no actual factual character to them. It was simply what the majority of the fandom interpreted them as. If a character appeared in the canon show (or comic) but was of no real importance, I'd call them a Background Pony, as that is the term I am most familiar with. Other people may have other names for them though, but I'm currently unaware of them.
  14. Samurai all the way! I'm such a nerd for history, but I am in love with historic Japan! Who can look at that Sengoku Jidai and not fall in love with the epicness that was to come! It's such a story of greed and distrust. I love me a good story like that.

    Well shoot, I totally forgot about all of this. Shame on me for not remembering important things. So sorry everybody, I'll get back to this once I've finished up my other priorities. Quite embarrassing.
  16. I forgot I had an account here. Oops.

  17. Oh my goodness, I've only seen crystal earth ponies too! I looked up pictures and they are all earth ponies! I've never realized that The Crystal Empire was all earth ponies. How weird is that. But I think a unicorn could be a crystal pony. Here is a list of all the crystal ponies we've seen, though it seems like all the ones who aren't earth ponies are ponies that seem to travel with the story a lot. Earth ponies definitely do take up the majority of the list too. http://mlp.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_ponies/Crystal_Ponies
  18. I'll try the best I can to say what I think, but it was a little hard to fully understand what you were trying to say. I want to start with the visuals. First off, and of course, it's a recolor. You know as well as I that recolors are generally frowned upon. I'd like to suggest, even if you are the worst artist in the world, just draw your OC by hand. Once you've done that, I'd also like to suggest reaching out to someone and ask them politely to draw your OC in their style. This forum site seems to have a lot of people taking requests, so it shouldn't be any problem trying to find someone. Once you've got that, and the other person is willing to help out a little more, try altering the looks with the artist until it looks the way you want it to. I'd also like to mention the colors. Generally, a pony's coat only has one color. The mane and tail can have a couple more colors, but they are all usually different colors than what the coat is. Make sure that the colors are pleasing to the eyes. I'd suggest finding a color wheel and looking at where colors are located on that in correspondence to the other colors. Finding patterns on that and using those colors can make fantastic looking OCs. Now the problem with your story is that you want a shape shifter but you don't want a changeling OC, correct? An immediate solution that I thought of was a unicorn who likes to do magic shows, kind of like Trixie. They could put on magic shows and have them be focused on them changing shapes and species. If you want to stretch it a little further, you could even let your OC be a helper for story tellers and be a duo with another pony! I'd like to suggest you think about something along those lines. Of course, it's just my critique, and everyone can be wrong. (Even me) May I ask if I missed anything though? Something else you'd like me to say? If not, I hope you take up my suggestions, and I'm excited to see what you do!
  19. Part time Wonderbolt? I'm not sure how that would go very well when his passion is music. Maybe for Wonderbolt shows and stuff it could work, but if you were meaning races too, I don't really like the idea. It's kind of like having two talents, which could be alright if it was represented in the cutiemark I guess, but I still don't really like the idea of racing with them too. I like the idea of him creating the music playlist for the Wonderbolts, but would it be for everything for the Wonderbolts or just races or something? Visually, I really like the design. Gradients aren't done often, (probably because they are hard to be made to look good) especially in canon characters, but I think the mane and tail look great! If I had to say something about the gradient though, (which I think I should) I think it might be a little too intense. Maybe if it just went from one color to the other instead of switching around colors constantly. The wing, it's pretty alright. I don't care for gradients on the body part of a pony, but this one does look good. I think the stroke for the mane and tail should be different though. Generally, it's just a darker color of what the fill is. His eye is something that is bothering me though. Unless it has a reason for that, I think you should just stick with one color for it. I love the earrings though. The wonderbolt badge is a great way to represent his love for them through his looks, and the three gold earrings looks great too! If you change anything visually, I really hope the earrings stay. Also, I'd like to see who his boyfriend is. Would you mind providing me a link?
  20. With the way you presented the picture, it's really hard to imagine her being in the pony world. would you mind posting a picture maybe of her in a grassland type area? Also, does she have a story yet? She looks like she would have quite an interesting one.
  21. Cherry. My eyes disagree with the brightness of the colors, but...eh, maybe it's an alright picture. I don't know, I won't ever understand the Sonic fandom.

    Yes, of course! I'm sorry for the late reply, but like I said, I am quite busy.
  23. Not ready for more busy days. Christmas season I guess. Eh

    Yes, of course! It may take me a bit of time, but after I finish these other three, I'll start your's. Yup, I'll begin as soon as I can, but it may be some time, so you might have to be a bit patient with me.
