Popsicle Twilight Sparkle

Ponies have invaded yet another new medium, this time taking over the world of popsicle stick crafting! It actually looks like he is planning on covering the entire thing in plaster of Paris for a giant Twilight Sparkle sculpture, but that initial is still pretty cool.

Check out the Deviant Art page to follow his progress!

EAT YOUR PEA, PINKIE PIE.

You won't understand this at all if you don't get the reference! Check it out after the break, and the spoiler below it.

Another Preview Screenshot from the New Episode!

Nothing spoilery this time around, just a really good shot of Cadance and Shining Armor!

Shes actually kinda cute.

 It's also over at the MLP Facebook page if you wanted to raid them.

Tutorial: Vector Art Creation

You'll never guess what I found lingering in the inbox, gathering dust in a corner- something neat for all you aspiring vector artists out there.

Captain Nemo has put together a two-part tutorial for creating vector traces of the show's art. All you need is a copy of Adobe Illustrator and some patience, and you too can put together something for the vector club! Which is a bigger deal than it sounds like, because that's the first place I go when I need a vector for a banner or something. So basically I'm giving you a key to our banners. I'm so nice.

Up above, we have the second chapter to that interactive Equestria Noire comic.  He needs people to make it successful though, so go check out the description for information on it!

And below, normal comics! Everything from cute fillies to Lyra being ridiculous.  Click for full as always.

Plushie Compilation #53

Winter has certainly wrapped up around here, but then again it wasn't much of a winter to begin with (not that I'm complaining). Maybe the pegasus ponies will have more of a winter to help clean up next time around.

Plush time again my friends! Check them all out after the break.

Introducing: Artist Livestream Nights

Like, as an official thing we do.

Seth has done a few of these things at random times, but now I'm making them more of a structured night everyone can look forward to. The gist, for those unfamiliar, is this: artists who feel comfortable livestreaming themselves doing art for the internet can contact us and appear on the Livestream Night posts that will be upcoming. Sound like fun?

You bet it does. I bet you want nitty gritty details. Check after the break, artists.

Bronyville Episode 49

Another week, another show! So close to hitting the big 50 mark too. That's  a lot of ponycasting!

Copy Paste:
------------
Dear Princess Celestia,

I’m writing this letter seeking out your help. My poor cousin AJ seems to get a bad rap this week and I wanted to see if you could do anything to help the 3rd best pony stand out. Perhaps a festive hat or a goodwill balloon ride? After that’s handled you can listen to our show this week which features Mr. Poniator and our usual Midnight Shadow. We talk about the basics of flash, a ton of upcoming international pony merch, and the plight that has befallen Twist!

MLP Online Development Video

The team over at MLP Online has released a pretty-depth video of their upcoming MMO.  What was once a specifically 2D game looks to be moving into the 3D Space.  They also show off the character creation, dialogue options, and combat screens.

AS is the norm you can find the video after the break, and their website here!

Story Updates April 11th (Afternoon)

Story update time! We have six this time around.  Find them below!

I'd be scared too.  Those blankets definitely don't match that bed.

Have some art!

MAGIC.MOV

The next chapter in the .MOV series is up over on HotDiggedyDemon's Youtube page.  As with all of them, it's completely over the top ridiculous, and will probably offend a bunch of you, which leads to angry emails.   I am putting a big red warning here though!  Viewer discretion is advised. Creating a 7 minute long fully animated pony video is impressive regardless of the subject matter!

(Do not send me angry emails)

Check it out after the break!
