Comic Con Final Poster Update

Crimson Valor and his team has heard your pleas!

They have modified everything and officially created the final version of the Comic Con poster for everyone to divulge in.

There are multiple versions, some with border/comic con text, some without any of that stuff.

The Deviant Art version is 5k resolution this time around,  meaning it should actually load on lower end computers.  The actual 30k file is still fully available for the new revisions though.

Everything can be found on the Deviant Art page specifically created for this one poster.

These guys deserve a lot of praise.  This is something you could bring to a poster shop and have printed out as a massive poster for your room, rivaling even the Comic Con versions.

You can find all versions here, OC free. 

Also a note from CV-
"It has been confirmed by a member of the show's production staff that one of the characters in the balloon in the original poster is indeed Cherry.  Likewise, it has been confirmed by the same production member that the balloon's other occupant is an official character.  However, this mystery second character is an as-of-yet unreleased Season 2 pony and cannot be revealed at this time, for legal reasons."

According to the Friendship is Magic wiki, Cherry is a pink background pony that owns a cherry fruit shop in Ponyville.

Octavia said...

Well, hopefully this will please everyone. Or almost everyone, at least. lol

Good work guys.

And I can't believe so many don't know who Cherry is. :P Granted though, she's not exactly a pony see much of at all.

Rarity is still missing one eyelash

Gypsy said...

Crimson Valor said...

@Don_ko

DAAAAAAAAAAAAMMIT!

I thought I was done with this gorram thing!

*Sigh*

I'll correct it tomorrow.

Still gonna wait for ponychan to finish theirs.

You currently experiencing the emotion of anger?

Niko Jims said...

So I assume the "relationship" or w/e that I keep hearing about will be Rarity and that white colt, seeing as that's Rarity's type.

OH GOD NEW SEASON 2 PONY CONFIRMED

Hype levels MAXIMIZED!

@Niko Jims, are you talking about Prince Blueblood? 'Cause that already happened... It didn't go well...

Bobbyzero said...

Downloaded the 30k version, holy smokes that was too much for my dinky little M11x and its 1.7Ghz proc to handle, gotta switch to my big boy for this fatty.

god this post looks awfully familiar...

Salt said...

STILL no Caramel, even after other things get fixed.

Otherwise close to epic. But not quite there.

seazer said...

These people fucked up on Luna, her outline is way too dark.

Anonymous said...

there is a "break" in the color in twilight's face between the nostrils and the upper lip.

anyway, THANKS, THIS IS SO AWESOME :)

@seazer

People are bitching about OC ponies in the balloon? Incredible. If someone puts the huge amount of work necessary into converting the poster into these images as this, they should be allowed to indulge themselves a little.

Dissing work like this because an outline color is darker than "approved"... that's just plain low.

Ease up, people. Stuff like this exists as a labor of love, not as an entitlement.

MetalBeerSolid said...

Unfortunately we jumped the gun -- there are still some errors that need correcting.

I will also be releasing wallpaper sized versions as well, in 16:10 and 16:9 flavors.

MetalBeerSolid said...

@seazerHave you even looked at the updated version? We fixed it. :/

Guys

The white pony is Orion. Same style of mane and same color.

There is nopony in the balloon. I just zoomed in on the picture so I could view the balloon. There was no outlines of anything. Do its just a stray balloon

Crimson Valor said...

@Anonymous

The preview Seth posted is an older version; not the latest. If you check the two most recently posted images on the dArt account, the balloon has two passengers.

Frith said...

@Crimson Valor

This is so cool and I love looking at this work in progress. ^_^

I noticed the color thing going on in Twilight's face too, and Celestia has a big smudge on her nose. That smudge may have been meant to be a shadow, except I don't see any other matching shadows on her body.

The artist who made the original poster stated clearly here on EqD that Cherry (in the balloon) was wearing a pair of aviator goggles. I understood that the goggles were on a hat on her head. Would you like me to ferret out the quote? It wouldn't be hard, all I'd have to do is search for "Frith" in the first post about the Comic Con poster a few weeks back.

Rockabore said...

What's so special about Cherry? How come she gets to go in the balloon? I mean, I have nothing against her but she's never done anything more than Colgate or Berry Punch. I mean she wasn't even named or had any speaking lines. Does this mean they have plans for her in the new season?

I still say Caramel should be there instead of Rainbow Day (whose name like nobody knew before this poster came out XD).

Craft4D said...

So this is my first time ever looking at the characters in the poster. How is Luna in the top left and the shadow bolts in the group? The shadow bolts are not real ponies, they were just nightmare moons magic trying to trick ranbowdash.

Anonymous said...

Well, I will be grabbing this new version for sure, but I will be keeping the original just to spite all of you, because you deserve it. :3

Frith said...

@Anonymous

Oh, your spite! It burns! It Burns!!

LOL! Keep on trotting in Equestria.

Facebook flooded, new Hop/Skip&Jump version already played 9000+ times, progress on Comic Con poster, another MLP ref on Sinfest... Best day ever!

Plus it would be a spoiler. Spoilers suck. To borrow from Toby Hadoke, cue restaurant-related metaphor:

"So I ordered filet mignon, and you've brought me..."
"That's right, sir. A plate of your own poo."
"Why?"
"Well, that's how it's going to end up anyways. I didn't think you'd want to savor the experience of actually eating it. Why not just skip ahead to the result?"
"Check , please."

@Anonymous

If they can't reveal the pony's real name due to legal reasons, it must be safe to say he won't be known as Orion anymore.

Anonymous said...

I'm glad. The OC drama should subside, and the vectorizers should get the credit they deserve. All will be right with the world.

Anonymous said...

Am glad that they choose Cherry.

But i would welcome to see there - Twinkle

BlueNight said...

I thought Nayuki simply said the second balloon pony was his secret for now. Can I get some attribution on it being a S2 character?

On the original official image, the second one looked like that white unicorn with pink hair that's next to Cherry in http://images.wikia.com/mlp/images/9/9e/Cherry_id.png and other screenshots, but wearing a cap.

Moongaze said...

@BlueNight

It is a secret, which is why I substituted in "Orion" instead. It IS a season two character in the original poster. That is a confirmed fact. I actually did get a decent description of what the character looks like and it doesn't sound like the character looks anything like the fan speculations, save for the fact that he's wearing a brown hat and is white, but that was already known if you looked closely enough at the original image.

I decided to just use a different character since if I made a pony based on the description i was given it would still technically be an OC since I didn't actually get to see the character with my own eyes and I'm not going to make one up based off a written description, however detailed it may be.

I also didn't put the hat and goggles on Cherry since again, I didn't want to basically make them up as far as how they look. Cherry also has her hooves hanging out of the basket in the real poster but I just didn't really have it in me anymore to work on the poster further.
