I kind of cheated today; you'll see this image again in the actual gallery. I don't mean for it to look like I'm playing favorites (I'm not), I just really like the sketchy look for these posts, and I fail hard at image searches. Especially after a week of not sleeping due to this event. I think I might be too heavily invested in it for my own good. Oh well! My body can take the hit in the name of ponies. That pillow pile, though. So tempttzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
- an hour later - Wha huh? Oh. Right. Where was I? It's been another extremely enthusiastic day for responses. 199 sleepers and dreamers. Remember once again, submission guidelines and... um... stuff. Man those pillows look nice. Don't they? Wow those are nice pillows. Scoot over, Fluttershy.
The Theme of the Day
Draw a pony with bedmane. All those sleepy ponies just woke up. Were they tossing and turning? Fighting off a bad hangover? Just escaped from the Grand Galloping Gala? I bet there's all sorts of interesting stories you could tell with a simple little theme like that...
So as it turns out you guys are like 15 steps ahead of me. I keep trying to be clever with these themes, and you just keep stepping it up and up and up to exceed my expectations. Perhaps befitting of a day so chock full of Inception references, my mind is nothing but powder. Also, as I've now gotten like... 7 or 8 requests for references on how to draw me as a pony (I've been asked this so many times in so many different contexts, is that weird?), just draw a nice plain white pegasus. The lead-in image from yesterday's gallery works as a reference. Go nuts. Or don't. Something. I don't make sense anymore. Enter Sandman below...
-edit- Don't let all the "I'm tired" comments fool you, I'm still having so much fun working with this event. You're all the bestest students a Blogprincess could ask for. Celestia made me amend my title before she would let me come down from the moon. Meanie.

Molto Bene
192 here. One of these days I will submit before the 11th hour.
198. BARELY made it in. Thank you so much, Phoe, for putting it up!
#175 here.
I like it but I don't. =/
One day, I will submit during DAYLIGHT.
193 Here. I feel pretty good about how this one turned out. I'm getting faster it looks like.
187 - Did it in the past hour, after writing up my network and system admin log book due at 12 am (in 5 hours) tonight.
I am LOVING this event. Seriously awesome, I FINALLY have the motivation (and damnit, I WANT to keep drawing now. Love you phoe and seth, the pair of you :)
WTF #9?!
36 here. I see I'm not the only one to think of doing Derpy dreaming of muffins :)
Awesome. #98. woot! I think i'll do... Rarity and twilight next. :D
The obsessor
Brilliant collection again (I need to find new superlatives!) Many a lol was had at these. I think 140 is my favourite.
Excuse me, what is a bedmane?
Can someone translate this to german or describe it?
By dream bigger, I could not. I was out of paper and imagination.
@Anonymous above me
Bedmane (or bedhead, in our speak) is what our hair (mane in this case) looks like after waking up. It's usually messy and out of place.
164 Lol Phoe, you so crazy.
These are awesome =P, it makes me sad that I probably can't turn something in for the next part, cuz I'll be in a car for 5 hours during my drawing time; and I had a good idea to D:
91's amazing for a little girl...
#4! and a Phoe comment! wooo!
also 195, we need to talk...
31 today, I desperately hoped someone would have the idea to use their submission to link to another, but #s 80 - 83 were a real treat!
Updated mine (#198) a tiny bit: I fixed the background to how I had planned it beforehand (but didn't have time to implement before uploading). Thumbnail won't update, so if anypony wants to see the slightly updated version with the awesome background, click it!
#20 here. This is pretty much the greatest event ever; I'll be sure to keep participating. Thank you so much for giving us all the chance to improve our drawing skills.
Darn finals, made me forget to send my enterie. It had Ponies and the dark lord Cthulth.
104, 124, and 178 are my favorites this round!
Well done everypony! keep drawing!
And Applejack doesn't need a therapist Phoe!
I feel like an idiot. I asked in the comment for the submission if digital and color were legal. Obviously they are. :P
#6 Reporting in!
I'm happy you got the joke, Phoe!
Oh-so many of these are amazing!
I have a slight idea for this theme.
Let's see how many attempts it takes me to actually pull it off.
These are so nice, I feel bad that I didn't get one done today >.<
#134 reporting in.
Using SAI for lining color for the first time and it turns out better than I expected.
I will submit my next drawing soon, but the day after tomorrow I might not be able to. I will be away from Bangkok for 2 days and a night though I hope for a miracle on day 9 myself. let see how it turn out, i suppose :3
Funny, 109 is just like the other idea I had in mind. Except I was going to cheat and rotate the original image around to make both sides of the dream loop identical.
Holy crap! 75? How the heck did I end up submitting in the first hundred?
I like all the creative dreamers here! You really did awesome.
Some I gotta point out though, 122 (Best dream ever) has Big Mac in a dress. Nuff said
54 has the best looking sleeping pony of the whole bunch
and yeah, Seth is gonna be all over 157
#195 here!
I ran out of time, so I couldn't color it like my other ones. I really need to stop passing out when I need to do stuff!
Nanashi is actually a character originating from a dream (the non-pony version). I dreamed of her, then drew her, then eventually added her to my story. Also, the included passage is an excerpt from the story itself. So here we have a dream dreaming of a dream, and fiction dreaming of fiction. I don't expect anyone to get it, but at least no one else had the same idea!
Also, there are some amazing entries tonight. You guys are so awesome.
I'm 141, I'm just happy to be included.
still colouring mine!
#180
Rarity and Blueblood! each time the pictures are getting saucier... D:
I got #1, i stay up way to late
#130 and #138 are so priceless for Me! <3
12 here :3 Can't believe I got a little note :D
LOL @ #69 [get it, 69? -nudge-]
and woah, #80-83 must have been planned.
So after a bad evening, the combination of getting a 'saucy' tag and being number 69 just made my anger at a frustrating night melt. I am left with the biggest smile on my face and the whole day is worthwhile.
52 here (Seriously? How did I get 52?). This was fun, might end up doing it again. Nice quick pony sketch.
Last time I was 39, now I'm 49 xD Must be getting slower
#21 here! Wow, pillowmountain Fluttershy :DDDDDD *incredibly happy*
My fave this time around is no. #89 and #133..UBOOAAAAAAA
#191 here (Got and comment, yay!)
I totally overestimated my abilities on this one. I wasn't able to work fast enough to tidy the line art, scan the lineart, tidy the beizers or colour the drawing. I plan to fix and finish it though, but I wanted to get SOMETHING submitted here in time.
I absolutely adore 52 and 104. they are definitely being kept tabbed for a good while.
#138
"oh hello, this is the part where I lecture you."
"I'm willing to forgive your inadequacies for friendship, you monster."
#38 here - I admit, I had way too much fun with this. Just a FYI, the image was heavily inspired by David Jordan's "Sun Goes Down", which is a catchy song and it hits Luna pretty well <3
And yea, I couldn't resist drawing more of the cutesy Moon Princess.
Great haul this time, people! Some very creative ideas, and just beautiful pictures alltogether. Big props to #80-83 for the idea ;)
Keep it coming people, checking these out has become my favourite thing to do on daily basis! (Well, aside from drawing next day's theme, anyway *sheepish grin*)
at first I cried (4), and then I laughed (60, and a ton of others), and then I wanted a moon pie (113).
@Skylark
Hey I was #52.
#179 here. I'm glad I made it on time. Had to rush it near the end where I wish I could of tweaked mine a bit.
Granted was a bit restricted since I wanted to draw something based on today and the last 2 days. XD
@Anonymous
Sorry, got the number wrong. 54.
@Skylark
Thats ok
Dreamtruder Pinkie everywhere.
Okay, I'm definitely joining in on this now. I have no excuse to not have a drawing submitted after today.
#63 here! Considering I did it in about an hour,I'm proud of my entry. All the others are great and original too!
Haha, 42. Looks like I got the best number!
#94 here.
This one was a bit tough for me if I'm honest.
only 4 inception jokes? i am dissapoint
#125 here. I love the Pinkie breaks into dreams idea soo much I don't even mind that #43 is way nicer than anything I'll ever draw!
This new one will be hard. I hope my ide pays oof!
#102 reporting in
its not finished but little by little im getting it done
#71 checking in (weird, that's the second time I've gotten that number)
I didn't have as much time as I would have liked to work on my drawing today, but I still think it came out alright, especially considering it was my first time drawing Apple Bloom as well as my first time drawing any pony lying down. I love that this event keeps finding new ways to stretch me as an artist. Thanks for all your hard work, Phoe, and I hope you get some rest soon. Keep up the great art, everpony!
#73, My first time drawing Ponies and I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. Thank you Phoe for giving me some motivation (its been a while since I’ve actually drawn anything).
Some great entries, 36, 61, 63, 92, 157 + 178, are my personal favourites.
#27 today.
Looks like #130 had the same idea that I did, except they did it better. >.<
Couldn't figure out how to do a tentacle-mane any justice...
Whooo! I got a Phoe comment. <3 (#40)
So today I have to draw Rarity with Bed-Head? Uugghh...like her hair wasn't hard enough... ¬_¬
I think my over-all favs in this batch are 33, 34 and 43. Nightmare Derpy, the muffins must FLOW!
Can't wait to see all the Bed-Mane pics tomorrow.
#80
lolcombo
@Quill
Success ^^
Alipes/#122 reporting in! Today's picture was a lot of fun, just because that's the sort of crazy dream I would have, including giant Trixie Dragon and Princess Big Mac.
The quality of all these entrees keeps getting better, good job everyone!
#51 popping in before i have to go to work *sigh*
THere we alot more of Twilight posted than i thought would be. ahahaha I happy with how her body turned out on my pic but . . . . but i cannot pinpoint whats off about her head >.< any insight ponies? anywho i was a bit surprised how close in pose mine and #13 were LOL Im going to be at work today . . . ill try to think of something i can try to sketch down for bedmane . . . .
This was a fun one. i enjoyed ALOT of the pics posted . . . these are a great way to wake up with a smile to start the day. Hmm nice bowel of cereal, happy pony pics, sure makes this disgruntled pony happy and giddy for a rough day. BUT then agaaaaiin, ponies make me happy all the time anyway . . . . .
80 - 83, I say CONSPIRACY!
Anyway, I drew 104. I hope her cutie mark is somewhat similar to that when she finally gets it.
105 reporting in. Tiredness affects my drawing skills :/
99 today.
I'm a bit surprised there weren't a few more scary ones. Guess I'm just a sucker for the PSYCHOlogical.
Herp derp.
~Buddy Vox
#151 here.
Very happy with the way this turned out; It was my first time using SAI and my new tablet.
107 here! Huzzah!
I need to get faster at making these, it's taking me until around 2 am in the morning my time to finish them...
#89 and #29
YAY, YUME NIKKI 8DDDD
I didn't actually watch Inception fully so I couldn't guess if there were any references
but most of the drawings are adorable X3
Ah well, too late on this one.
So much for "Dancing With Myself" Blueblood.
41 here. Completely forgot to draw Lyra's cutie mark. Ah well...
Two Homestuck references? In my ponies?
#118 You made my day.
Roseluck needs more love.
D: mine didn't get posted today. not mad just like to know why...
-140 here-
I'm glad I submitted something yesterday, took me forever to uh, dream something up and thought I wouldn't make it! Who -wouldn't- wanna protect Fluttershy? XD
Already got my sketch going for tonight though :D
Wow, my mind blew so often this morning. Everyone did a great job by splattering my walls with my brain. I thought it was the end of me when I saw number 80-81-82-83.
Also, I'm a big fan of Yume Nikke. Why didn't I think of that earlier! Bravo to #89 and #29.
On of my submissions finally got a little comment from Phoe: I succeeded at winning the mission! Though, I forgot Twilight's cutie marks... I always forget SOMETHING!
At least I already have an idea in mind for today's.
Phoe is right, hygiene is key!
#143, inspired by Prismatic Pretzel's post from yesterday. I'm pretty sure drawing this makes me a terrible pony, but I couldn't help myself. At least we have Sherlock Hooves to lighten up Colgate's dreams. =D
Though I'm not sure which is scarier, horn rot or my marker coloring.
ps. moar moonpies
Wait, "enter sandman"?
EXIT LIGHT!
I'm #178. :) Put up a higher res version on my DA: http://fav.me/d3hxnw8
I got a comment? Neat.
#149 here~ I seem to be getting my submissions in earlier and earlier. I'm a little saddened at the lack of Caramel going around. Though, with all the other great backgrounders, I can't say i'm surprised. I'm loving this event, and look forward to tomorrow. Keep up the good work everypony :D
@BronyQuestI know how you feel, same goes for me. I forgot to tuck Angel Bunny under the wing.
@Facelessguru
I'm sorry, I don't think I ever got yours. Maybe the submission thingy errored, or I might have accidentally deleted it when clearing a duplicate entry or something. I'm looking but I can't seem to find any trace of it from my end. Sorry you got skipped. I hate missing entries and I really work my tail off trying to make sure it doesn't happen. Unfortunately I'm only one pony.
DAT #16
ILY, SMOCK <3
36 - neat perspective
43 - awesome lines, and adorable, and pinkie pie breaking yet another reality barrier, ftw
80 - Adorable in the way a pile of sleeping puppies or kittens is adorable. My one request: that we get another of these where it's all pegasus ponies!
99 - An excellent expression, and an interesting idea in terms of character. Poor Pinkie...
178 - Creative way of demonstrating the theme, and yes, beautiful
#125 again.
Thanks Phoe! I agree, shared dreams are adorable.
So if dream Pinkie Pie were to look at the reader, would that be breaking the 4th wall? The 5th wall? The 8th wall? Pinkie, please stop trying to shatter my mind...
43: Hehehe. Wingboner.
75: *Slowclap*
88: Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some... farcical astronomic ceremony!
149: Go for it, Caramel. Chase your dreams!
185: "Oh, uh, um...~roar. I-if, that's okay, I mean...eep."
200...
Can Luna see our dreams?!
I gotta be more careful...
#121 is starting to grow on me, the more I think about it, the more the show's canon looks like a Dr. Whoof + Celestia [trollestia?] behind-the-scenes thing.
Broke here, posting on behave of the artist of 91. If you don't mind, go ahead and change the name to Cammy, as all her future submissions will be under that name.
@phoe
thanks for looking at least :D
any one of a million things could have gone wrong there... oh well theres always todays thingy
Oh, boo. It doesn't link to the full image.
@Broke
The deed is done, sir. Looking forward to seeing more work from her!
@Luna
I apologize, your highness. Something about Blogger seems to hate animations. I laughed, if it's any consolation.
@Doc Steedly
The lower jaw is too blocky, the bridge from the nose should only be one line, and her horn is rather pointy, but you might have wanted that.
Those are what I thought was "off" about her head.
#186 here
Needless to say I was rushed last night as my laptop decide to down load that infamous window update that has caused alot of computers to go into the repetitive boot try to configure update, fail and revert to boot down, and repeat the process until I got it to boot in safe mode at around 2:30 am est just giving me barely enough time to draw and submit. LET THE SPIKE DREAM I SAY!
Well, #149 stole my heart. Brilliant idea.
Requesting fic.
111 here. What an awesome number. xD
Anyways, glad to see that first, I actually got it done today, and second that no one else had my exact idea (and pun!). I am blown away by the other artists though; mine looks crappy in comparison to some of these.
I really wish I had a good photo-editing program and/or a tablet now...
~Dark~
Does nopony understand that horses stand while sleeping??
xD Great job, all of you!
My favorites were 40 and 196
@Anonymous
Not necessarily. I live next to an equestrian center and I frequently see the horses napping on their stomachs, or even laying on their sides. Sometimes they look dead when they do this :o
#135 here.
Originally I was going to draw Twilight or Fluttershy dreaming. But I decided to use Derpy for this one. Today's challenge should be easy since all I got to do is draw her mane messed up.
Consider me impressed at #80-83.
Oh and #34 is pretty cute too.
@Fox E:
I would hope you are not a terrible pony or I would probably terrible and I really don't want to have to eat 40 cakes.
Anyway I am glad that there were people that liked my drawing or that the horror of the concept burned itself into the mind tormenting with visions of pain and bad hygiene. Either one is fine.
Also that bit from 80 to 83 was rather a neat idea.
@Avohkah Tamer
You're a member of BZP right?
Maybe I soon try to draw ponies and upload here.
#112 here.
Ahh, good, if there weren't at least three Inception references I would have been disappointed in you all.
And that 80-83 series was epic :D
@Anonymous
Die Sorte Haar die man direkt nach dem Aufwachen hat.
167 here, everypony's look great!!!
i love 178 so much but what happened to derpy's regular wings?
