Hey guys, just joined the forums recently, but I must say that Starlight has been one of my favorite characters since season 5, particularly with her redemption.  Part of the reason is that over the past year or so, I've been struggling to get my life back on track after making a huge mistake, so I really identify with a lot of Starlight's struggles.  I do like how they've developed her character over the past 2 seasons.

Since I actually started watching MLP on Netflix during the hiatus between the end of Season 5 & the start of Season 6, the show & stuff I've seen from the fan community has motivated me to try to get back into drawing again, and just last week, I drew my first semi-serious sketch in over 4 years as part of my attempts at finding a style of drawing ponies that is sorta close to the show style, but that suits my general technique better.  I know it's not that great, but I hope all you fellow Starlight fans like it:

Definitely props for finding your own style to work with. It gives it that personal touch (especially the hooves, I really like that)

And since we're sharing drawings. I drew this a few months ago at work in between customers with the crayons and worksheets we had out for kids to color. It's still up in our breakroom.

Oh, I love this! :D BTW, have you ever heard of a fanfic on FIMfiction called "Aftermath of the Games?"  This scene sort of happens in it.  I would definitely love to see something like this happen in the actual Equestria Girls lineup, though.  :)

@KH7672   Thanks!  That was just a prelim pic, though.  Still working on my own personal style.  Like for instance I've been doing some face studies of both unicorns & non-unicorn ponies, and have determined that using a variation on the standard eye style I've been using for the past 17 years or so not only works a lot better for me, but looks better as well.  I'll probably post that one here soon, since Glimmy-Glam is one of the ponies' faces that I'm drawing (I'll be giving her a cat smile), especially since it will also be the first one I'll be attempting to color on the computer after I scan it up... I really need to get a new paint program though:  that 18 year old copy of Paint Shop Pro that I have is definitely showing its age & limitations, but all the others I've tried are either too expensive, too complicated (like GIMP) or both (e.g. Photoshop)... ;)

Starlight Glimmer if she'd gone the "Amending Fences" route.

Honestly, I think this was Starlight when she was growing up. Keep in mind, Moondancer was only a recluse for a few years, Starlight choose the same path, and lived most of her life that way. No wonder she decided to do whatever it took not to be alone anymore.

I tend to concur.  As a matter of fact, AgrolChannel made an AWESOME video last year that essentially depicted a similar backstory for Starlight that gave me the kind of feels I haven't had from watching a fan video since I saw Snowdrop...

Was that the "You Must Remember" video? I really like that one.

Who else is excited for this Saturday's episode featuring Starlight Glimmer and Trixie? I know I am! Whenever Starlight Glimmer is the main focus, I get very excited because I'm very fond of reformed characters as they unlock their true potential.

If I'm correct, we're seeing more characters find and solve friendship problems.

While I was out shopping today, I noticed there were Starlight Glimmer beanie babies on the store shelves with wings on their backs. Is this a sign that Starlight is finally going to become an alicorn princess soon?

Well, since *you* saw the Starlight Glimmer beanie babies it must be a sign.

I was not a big fan of how quickly she wrote off Pharynx, especially since they really did have a lot in common.

 

At Least she made up for it with that awesome speech.
