Cloudy with a Chance of Love

[Glitterpen 42]

 

I know the title is unbelivably tacky, but I also find its level of sugary adorableness to fit the picture, more or less. Also, please full view, it's way huge.

 

I've got a thing for clouds. When you think about it, they might just be the last thing left on this Earth uncontrolled by humans. Naturally, they're 20% cooler with ponies and that's how this picture was born.

 

So here we have Rainbow Dash showing Pinkie Pie just how awesome beforementioned clouds really are, as she holds her above them with her pegasus-powers. I've always thought it was a bit sad for Pinkie that she lost her wings, while the show was being developed. I wouldn't change a thing about her (or Fluttershy, who got her wings), but I think she would've enjoyed bouncing around on clouds, like she did in "Sonic Rainboom". Hence her expression here.

 

I must say, this is my favorite pairing in the whole series and this was intended as romantic, but it can of course be viewed any way you like. The heart-shaped markings in the clouds fall a bit flat, if ment plathonic, though.

 

Speaking of, some might ask: "What's with the clouds? Clouds aren't flat! OR curled in fashionable ways!" ... Honestly, I have no idea. I was trying something new and stylish, and honestly, I think it looks pretty good. I also gave up trying to copy the show's style and just gave in to my style again. Gives better results, methinks.

 

Critic? Opinions? 3-word comments? All is welcome! Just please stick to commenting on the art and not the pairing. I'm pretty sure that belongs in the shipping-thread, over at Show Discussion. Unless you want to say something really nice about the art, involving the ship, 'cause I would definitely want to hear that. Savvy?

 

This image can also be found on my deviantART-profile, under the username TheSketcherKid. Everyone is more than free to use it wherever they like, as long as they don't remove the author tag at the bottom. I would also be very happy, if you could include a link to my deviantART somewhere, but it's not required. I'm just really, really lonesome over there.

Pretty picture of the two! I just don't understand how Pinkie is on the clou-oh wait, it's Pinkie, nevermind.

I love the way you drew both of them. The clouds are good, I could have done without the bigger curls, but it doesn't ruin the image at all. Amazing drawing.

I think they look a teeny bit too fat, but other than that, it's awesome. Also if you say that this is romantic, doesn't that mean Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash are lesbians?

Dohoho, I see whatcha did there. Thanks! XD

That's exactly what I told someone on deviantART. Never question physics, when Pinkie's involved.

 

However, like I told the Deviant, I imagine Pinkie had just bounced up through the clouds from her trampoline, landed on Dash's back, forgot to hold on with both hooves, when she saw that adorable baby-cloud and is about to fall back through the cloud. That's why her tail is sticking through the bottom of the cloud, while Rainbow's is just kind of... lying there.

 

And thank you!

Thank you so much! I actually thought about having either huge curls or tiny curls, but couldn't decide, so I just threw in both. But I see what you mean. Next time, smaller curls it is! Thanks again.

Nah, it just means I wish they were. I doubt the show would ever touch a topic like that, so I think it's open for interpretion.

On the topic of fat ponies, you're right, they do look a bit bloated. I have a habit of styling ponies too skinny, so I was trying to avert that. Guess I overdid it, heh. But thanks for the critic, every bit helps!
