I have no idea why I choose Vapor Trail but i think her transformation has something to do with Sky Stinger.

No, I don’t think so.

no, any form of visual art will do

heads up, one week left, make sure to finalize your entries before then if you haven't submitted them already

[MidnightFire1222 2,161]

I finally got an idea and sketched it out. I can't wait to get it lined and colored!

[Splashee 28,563]

A lot of entries this time 

It is still time left, and knowing the best one pops up the last day or so, my strategy is to stress the competition a little

Aww thanks hon! I worked hard on it!

[MidnightFire1222 2,161]

Here's my entry (probably the only one I'll submit).

Now imagine this. You mentored two of the most powerful ponies in known existence, mentored one of the founders of Equestria, possibly even mentored the one that took down Grogar. You were responsible for the creation of over 200 spells, capable of ripping the very fabric of reality open to banish powerful foes to another dimension, powerful enough to create artifacts letting you travel to parallel worlds on a whim, and even befriended one of the greatest threats to the known world. You were revered, loved, famous. You were powerful and ponies flocked to you by the thousands for your advice, and were deemed one of the Pillars of the ancient world, and you would do anything to protect it no matter the cost.

Now imagine you woke up over a thousand years ahead of your own time. Your name is forgotten: ponies no longer know your face, your deeds, or anything. Your knowledge was locked away from the world for fear of its misuse, and the sands of time gradually erased you from relevance.

How would you handle it? Would you humbly accept your fate and travel to learn about this new world while you travel and help others? Or would you grow jaded that nopony remembers you? Would you seek to claim the recognition you deserve, through whatever means necessary? Would you horde knowledge and seek power to remind the world of who you are?

And what happens, in your quest for knowledge and power, when you take things too far?

Well, all you have to do is look at this poor soul who, lost in the darkness of his heart and mind of his fear that history forgot him, fell to the Nightmare.

While Bas' entry is the spoopiest I've seen so far, I still think Nightmare Doo is first place because it doesn't go to the extremely realistic grounds Bas' picture do.

Pretty

I decided to use @ExplosionMare's OC (with permission) Granite Rose's hallucination known as “Thorns”:

Part of the fan fic "Behind Him", I cannot think of a more fitting entry for the nightmare theme.

Aw that looks really cool! I really like the Cutie Mark, too, looks a lot better than my version.

Thanks for making the Thorns drawing and thanks for the promotion  I’ll always appreciate your art.
