Yes, aperture pony, but I thought it was aperature.

McSqueakers said...

Wow that FIRST was kinda wierd

Mastertortilla27 said...

Pony GlaDoS is staring into my soul.....

Pocketguns2 said...

#1 is awesome
Portal 2 is 20% cooler

Marcoooootje1 said...

They were both weird, but awesome!

Jelfes said...

#1 was confusing... Pinkamina with a mini-gun and Fluttershy with an RPG, it can't get much more awesome.

I love #2, too bad I can't marry it, GLaDOS says so...

Latias4Ever said...

... *Twitches.* Why must they keep making these Portal crossfails!?

Tim Sl said...

Pinkie Pie with a Gatling Gun? What could possibly go wrong?

James Corck said...

The first was alright.

The second one was effing creepy O_O

Blinky said...

Fan made flash animation of the show is surprisingly rare. You'd think it'd be more common when the show itself is also made with it. The ponies in #1 look fairly accurate to the show, would be nice to see more flash like it.

SgtGarand said...

#1 At first I was excited for a Band of Brothers crossover....but then I was majorly disappoint.

#2 Was actually pretty well done

WizardWannabe said...

@Blinky I can see why you'd think that, but Flash is horribly annoying to animate with, especially with symbols. It's even more difficult to animate well.
Traditional frame by frame is so much easier (though much more time consuming), which is why FiM's animation deserves extra commendation.

I love the portal pony. She is scary in a good way. There should be a fic series about her running experiments on ponies in the future.

Clock Keeper said...

#1 I rewatched that AJ portion like three times. That hammerspace was just too shocking to not watch.

#2 A definite improvement upon the first one, and I liked the first one as it was.

banannagram said...

These are both great. I'd say awesome, but I think I've used up my allottance of that word for the week.

Max said...

Pinkamena Diane Pie is heavy?

Also, i loved 2nd one, and never played the portal 2.

bobmortar said...

Aperture pony was damn creepy. But also amazing.
That war thingy was just... meh.

Firleycat said...

Aside from the fact that the pony GLaDOS looks like she crawled out of the uncanny valley, the Portal video is very well made.

pachikira said...

The 1st one is nice.
#2 I like the model also... but it needs more action to be more interesting.
I like the last bit though. XD

Raefire said...

...Band of Brothers is WWII, right?

So why does Rarity have an M-16, and Pinkie have a minigun?

Lemonite said...

@Latias4Ever
Crossfail?

That video was awesome!

IntelligencePending said...

Fluttershy... with an RPG?? PREPOSTEROUS!

If anything she would use a burst-fire P-90 at mid-range. Complemented by a Beretta M9 with tracer rounds, for issuing orders to a squad. Medium armor, and a careful but direct approach/attack.

...

Don't judge me.

Wierdplatformer said...

Internets. You have won them.

Sindri said...

@Firleycat
Well, she is a vaguely equinoid robot. Uncanny valley is right where they were aiming.

Mildly disappointed by the first; if you're going to have ponies causing senseless destruction it needs to at least be done well, instead of looking like you photoshopped a couple ponies onto one of those "stick figures with guns lolz" animations all over the internet.

The second was awesome.

@Raefire

Because "Friendship is Magic!"

ChaosDX1 said...

Huh, some bug wouldn't let me comment for a while. Weird. Now what was I going to say?

Is that outline Scootaloo? Looks like her to me! And very nice animation on GLaDOS pony!

thedragslay said...

The GLaDOS pony was done very well. Good lip synching. I only wish that they eyes were yellow/gold, as they're supposed to be.

rp-sesu said...

I find it amusing that people thought the aperture pony would be *less* creepy with eyes...

Bronode said...

Who knew a chicken could cause such angst to an advanced, psychotic, science-obsessed personality construct? Then again, she doesn't like birds much, does she?

Tosxychor said...

Wow, great animation in the first, and definitely something well-done in the second.
Enjoyed them very much ^^

mycutiemarkisagun said...

Modern weaponry in WW2? BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! ANACHRONISTIC!!!

Atiarotias said...

Twilight in #1 is just like... that's her alright

Traxus said...

GLaDOS pony was staring into my soul...

Cloud Runner said...

Fluttershy with an RPG!? My life is complete.

@Daisymare

Umm... http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/05/story-better-living-through-science-and.html

@Jelfes

Actually, Just Aperture.

That makes it A-Per-Ture

not A-Per-a-Ture.

Reference the song. 3 syllables work better.

Octavia said...

I thought they were both pretty cool. Especially the first one. Think I remember seeing the second one being worked on a while back.

Aquatice said...

Scootaloo's tenacity is in the 98th percentile!

Nouthriss said...

@Jelfes
The ,,aperture" is correct, see http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/aperture (it is indeed a not-so-often used word).

AlanJCastonguay said...

GLaDOS is a creepy pony. I think I'll invite Scootaloo to go skiing in the uncanny valley. To make up for the scootabuse. You monster.

Meep said...

So...

Where's the moon cannon??

SSGTPaingod said...

Yeah, I mad at the first one.

How exactly is a Michael Bay/Modern Warfare homage with ponies related to Band of Brothers? Maybe if you had Fluttershy take a round to the flank, slowly bleeding out while Twilight Sparkle holds her while screaming for a medic, who arrives just after Fluttershy passes on... yeah, then you'd have something close.

Fuck it, I'm gonna make my own Band of Bronies. That's the one good thing I can say about it- it has inspired me to make something superior (which shouldn't be too hard, but that wont mean I'm half-arsing it)

Lysana said...

@SSGTPaingod I look forward to seeing that. Sincerely.

As for #2, OMG. That was GOOD. And I haven't played Portal 2. I have a Portal game stuck on level 4 or so until I get off my arse and install Steam on either my Linux lappy with Wine or see if they have a Mac version (hah).

empressab said...

I'm friends with the pony who made this, and I think I speak for all of us when I say that he really outdid himself in this. If MLP was made with Blender, then he would've been hired in ten seconds flat. I can't wait to see what he makes next.

empressab said...

@empressab

And by "this" I mean No. 2
