• Drawfriend Stuff #249

    Have some more Rarity go to with our Rarity dominated morning.  

    We have a new banner too! Thanks to Southparktaoist for this one.  Cereal and I don't really have a whole lot of time for banner creation anymore, so it always helps!

    6. Dash's placement does not look right in #9 lol

      ReplyDelete
    7. #1 That is just fucking brilliant. ALL the compliments to the artist.
      #5 Only Ponies could make the Prequels at all watchable.
      #7 is it sad that the first thing that popped into my head was "Dawson's Creek"?
      #16 I think Fluttershy would be too faint of heart to play Pokemon. All she'd be able to do is use recover, heal beam, and protect.
      #18 Sweetie Belle's "Oh Shit I'm Gonna Die" face is adorable.

    8. /looks at the banner.

      Rarity betrayed Twilight to the Princesses for thirty bits.

      I was honestly expecting it to be Trixie.

      ReplyDelete
    9. 5: I approve!
      8: Rainbow Dash a mommy?!
      21: Dawwww.
      26: Apparently Fluttershys float.

    12. I was thinking that Making Up For Lost Time (number 2) would be the best one, BUT THEN NUMBER 29 CAME UP WITH DINOBOT. YEEEEESSSSSSSSS

      ReplyDelete
    13. Is...is that Dinobot riding Luna into battle? I mean...is it? It is? Whelp. Time to commit harakiri. Life can't get any better than this.

      ReplyDelete
    14. Number 2 got mooned for saucyness.

    17. What comes after 1 but before 3?

      ReplyDelete
    18. #1 is the last of that artist's portraits of the mane 6, and while it's not quite as good as the Pinkie Pie one from last week, it's still an excellent drawing; great colors and details, nice lighting, and I love Rarity's expression, wrapped up in the joy of creation.

      #2: Oh wow, that one's not going to stay up for long.

      #3: Well, green would certainly go better with her coat than pink would. More happy Rarity, and I think I'd like to see something more along these lines, with Rarity designing something fitting for Luna without worrying about making her less threatening. (Or pink.)

      #6: I don't know how faithful this drawing is to the TV series it's spoofing, but Celestia as Danny DeVito is hilarious.

      #7: Nice atmosphere; it definitely works better at full size, as some details get obscured in this thumbnail view.

      #8: Does this count as shipping? Regardless, I can at least see this as a cute family portrait in an alternate universe.

      #9: A cute portrait of the main pegasi, with their respective cutie marks portrayed.

      #13: If you want to see it as good friends just horsing around, feel free to do so; I think it's an even cuter pic when looked at that way, honestly.

      #16: Gotta catch 'em all!

      #17: I like this artist's style. Hanging out with Pinkie Pie would probably do Luna a lot of good, actually. For that matter, I imagine Celestia would enjoy an afternoon with Ponyville's party pony.

      #18: Cutie Mark Crusaders Sky Divers, go! Love how Sweetie Belle is drawn; that's pretty much what my reaction would be.

      #20: A bit of an unusual, shiny art style, but a cute Derpy portrait nonetheless.

      #21: Silly and cute Lyrabon pic. The art style reminds me of BrainDPS and TheWormOuroboros, actually, which I rather like. Especially for silly+cute pics.

      #22: Just when you thought they couldn't get any cuter... SmittyG did a good job channeling Briskby's style but keeping his own touch in the art. Applejack's bow and apple are just the perfect touches for her.

      #24: I know WhiteDiamonds drew this one a while back, but I don't know if it's made it to a drawfriend before now. I just absolutely love the expressions on this one; to me, it just seems to perfectly capture Pinkie overenthusiastically thanking Dashie for a routine delivery, and Rainbow Dash being a bit irked at the fuss over something so simple. Favorite drawing of the drawfriend tonight.

      #25: Another drawing I'd classify as borderline shipping/friendshipping. That does look mighty comfy; suddenly I have a desire to bid on one of those pony pillows that pops up regularly on eBay...

      #26: A rare full-color drawing from Karol Pawlinski; good job of contrasting the colors between what's underwater and what's above the surface.

      #27: Dang, and I didn't think Cheerilee could look any more cheerful. Did someone tell her the '80s are making a comeback?

      #30: Sorry, but "The Cutie Pox" proved that it's Zecora under that costume.

      ReplyDelete
    19. #1 Love it. It's like, 2 1/2 D!
      #3 HATS! Hats make everything better, especially ponies and llamas.
      #6 Haaaaaa! It's funny cause Celestia is fat.
      #24 Aaaah that's cute, and I'm not really that big of a fan of either of them.

      ReplyDelete
    20. I was wondering how long it would take for the jokes to start about #9. RD isn't quite positioned right for those jokes, really, but it is admittedly close...

      And I was right about #2 not lasting very long.

      ReplyDelete
    21. #11 is best pony

      Wind Waker? Hell yes!

      ReplyDelete
    22. Wow, an awesome Drawfriend tonight! And let me say, I love the Thanksgiving Banner... especially all the fighting going on. Seems just right. Here's hoping Scootaloo doesn't have to start dealing with turkey jokes.

      1: Absolutely stunning! You can check out Rarity from multiple angles with the mirrors, and see outside and down the street... Such nice shading, coloring... everything. Gorgeous image.
      2: As of this posting, there is no #2. Didn't trip me up this time!
      3: Another full boutique scene, also beautifully done! Luna is apparently making it up to Rarity for having her scene cut out of Nightmare night.
      4: I like the charcoal feel of this one.
      5: Aw... I'd prefer my ponies star in the good Star Wars films... Although they could certainly improve the sequels. Luna already has more natural line readings.
      6: Heh... Oh my... Poor Celestia. Well, she did beg to be drawn more in that other Drawfriend.
      7: Spooky and atmospheric, and a cross over I never would have thought of.
      8: Dash has gotten busy! Nicely colored.
      9: Have we ever seen Fluttershy try moving a cloud? Maybe you have to be union. Fun style here.
      10: Very cool work on her mane and eyes.
      11: More Zelda in my ponies! I still haven't played this one. Love the boat.
      12: Luna's living bat cloak was awesome, even if the idea of it kind of makes my skin crawl.
      13: Okay, so the tags in the title kinda rule out some innocently playful wrasslin' between just friends. Still a very cute image.
      14: Heh... I've had mornings like that.
      15: Awesome hair and eyes on Scoot, plus a super-cool nightvision thingamajig. Really well done.
      16: I'm not sure what she's snuggling, but they're both adorable.
      17: These blue-line sketches are all so charming.
      18: Heh... Sweetie Belle needs to learn to say no sometimes. Hope they're better at packing chutes than they are at most tasks.
      19: Rarity is looking lean! This is a fun style.
      20: That is a shiny mail pony... Poor thing looks flushed from the cold. Some nice color variations here.
      21: Tender and hilarious at the same time!
      22: These fillies are adorable, one and all. Twi and AJ are my favorites, though Fluttershy with her juicebox could give one cavaties.
      23: A nice style on display here with the characters. Here's hoping Pip isn't gobbled up.
      24: Awww. *I'd* be smiling if I were Dash. A very charming portrait of the two, and I always love White Diamonds' coloring jobs.
      25: It's a very sweet image taken as a mother/daughter kind of cuddling. As a teacher, she should probably be fired immediately. They look so warm and fuzzy though.
      26: Once Fluttershy gets out, will she steal the wet hair spotlight from Rarity? A really nice subtle water effect here.
      27: This image alone could make me love Cheerilee. Such a vibrant pony.
      28: AJ might be stubborn enough to make that method of flight work...
      29: I don't know what's riding Luna, but the two of them together are definitely badass.
      30: Zecora? More DC ponies... and this one is definitely cool and powerful looking.

      This is a great batch of artwork... Thanks again to all of the talented artists for sharing!

    23. Another Zelda/MLP cross? And Wind Waker at that. I approve heartily.

      ReplyDelete
    24. @Miyajima
      Great reference; there actually are a few similar poses among the ponies present, though obviously we're one character short on the right side.

      ReplyDelete
    25. Dinobot riding Luna!? My brain can't handle the awesome, I'm just going to go lie down.

      Hey. Dinobot became a good guy!

      Never much cared for the Beast Wars/Beast Machines universe anyway.

    28. OK, #13 is insanely cute. I would like to think that they're just being friendly, I find it even cuter that way. LET THERE BE MORE!!!!!

      ReplyDelete
    29. @Harwick

      *is the artist of number 13*

      The tags and title are just there for people who want to see the AppleSparkle ship in the image. Really I'd love it if everyone just interpreted it in their own way. I like the pair but I drew the image to be innocent and sweet anyway.

      And for everyone else, 13 is a repost. Someone must have sent it in from my new FA account.

      ReplyDelete
    30. @Harwick
      The artist on #13 said viewers were free to view it as playful wrasslin' between friends, so go ahead. :)

      ReplyDelete
    31. #13 No worries guys, they just tripped! Nothing saucy going on here. Move along!
      #14 Vinyl really should eat something more than just Cheerileeos for breakfast. They do NOT fill you up.
      #16 O.O?! Fluttershy? Snuggling a Cyndiquill? Oh God, where's my insulin?! Where is it-HNNNNNNGGGGGG!!!

    32. @rustedrabbit
      Thanks for replying, and you certainly met your goal with that drawing; I love drawings that can be seen as either shipping or as friendshipping.

      ReplyDelete
    33. @pmcollectorboy I know he became a good guy. I just like terrorize better.

      ReplyDelete
    34. Great drawfriend today, plenty of cute stuff. I approve though i'm not in the mood for a long comment.

      Was beaten to saying it but I like how #13 can be taking as shipping or playful. 22 is really adorable too.

      I hate not commenting on all the images I like.

      ReplyDelete
    35. 11,22 and 30 we're win for me.

      And why is shipping so Damm cute?

      ReplyDelete
    36. @jodyjm13

      Thank you ^_^ I do too. If a drawing can be seen as either friendshipping or shipping more people can enjoy it. I was actually surprised by some of the controversy I got from posting 13. Of course I got the pose from watching my dogs play so sauce wasn't really on my mind XD

      ReplyDelete
    37. @jodyjm13My thoughts exactly, sometimes things are better without perversion involved, Sometimes. This is simply two friends having a close relationship.

      ReplyDelete
    38. 18: Sweetie Belle is right to be worried. That parachute is not going to work. Without leg straps you'll just fall out of it. Ponies would work with two bands around the bodies though, but steering a ram air chute would be damn near impossible without being a unicorn.

      ReplyDelete
    39. Oh, my gosh my PinkieDash pic! Or well, Pinkie and Rainbow Dash pic really, since I didn't explicitly intend for it to be shipping but... regardless! I tried submitting that picture to EqD over a month ago, and it's only now appearing... that is soooo hilarious, I love it~ ^.^

      Ah well, that certainly was a pleasant surprise. Moving on, though!

      #1 YES. @_@ Now this is definitely a fabulous way to start a Drawfriend off right. Even with my admitted Rarity bias aside, this is obviously a beautiful piece of artwork that deserves much praise... I love so much about it! The soft lighting is fantastic, with the blue tones coming from Rarity's telekinesis and the other warm glow from the sunset outdoors, and all the work put into the textures is fantastic as well (her hair and the carpeting look almost real... real @_@). The mirrors add a whole new level to the impressiveness as well. I probably could go on even more, but yes... doubtless I've rambled on enough already. Truly lovely work.
      #3 Yay, more Rarity happily in her element! =^.^= It makes my heart feel glad. A lovely little scene that does a great job capturing her room true to the show's style, and with some nice Luna interaction as well. I have to wonder it Rarity intends that hat for the princess though... I wouldn't have imagined green was really her color... (ahem)
      #4 A very nice minimalist piece that makes excellent use of the play of light and dark... I like it.
      #6 I have never seen the original before, but I have to say that Princess Celestia is hilarious. That definitely threw me for a loop, I will admit...
      #7 Another piece where I'm not entirely sure what's going on, but I really like very much. The composition is really great, and fog and gloomy colors add a wonderful sense of mood to this (I can almost feel the chill dampness in the air). I like this one a lot; kudos artist.
      #8 I don't ship it by any means, but that doesn't mean I can't enjoy the artwork of course. Really lovely style here and I adore the glossy coloring... everything about this one is very pretty and beautifully done.

      ReplyDelete
    40. (Two-parter for length here, pardon me)

      #9 Aww, what a cute style this artist has! ^.^ This is a really charming little piece. I love the painterly feel to it, and the tapered lines and visible brushstrokes in places give it a wonderful tangible quality. Love it!
      #10 Simple but another cute little image... I like the shading and the way her eyes were done especially. ^^
      #11 An interesting piece with very unusual (in a good way) composition going on. The coloring style is very defined in some places and less so in others which is a bit strange, but overall the effect is still quite nice... I especially love the water here, beautiful colors!
      #13 Now there is a ship you don't see everyday! Cute artstyle though, definitely.
      #15 I like the way this piece is colored. It might have benefited from a softer outline as opposed to the solid black, but still, very nice.
      #16 All my d'awws, oi. And I'm not sure which is cuter, Fluttershy or the Cyndaquil.
      #18 Hahaha... Sweetie Belle's face totally made this picture for me. ^.^
      #19 Yay Rarity! <3 An unconventional take on the series' style here but I still like it... very funky and cute. ^.^
      #20 Another great style here, I really love all the colors. This artist had a Pinkie Pie pic up in Drawfriend a few nights ago that I also quite admired, if I'm not mistaken.
      #21 Aww, that's cute. ^.^ Bon Bon looking so tender and sweet while Lyra happily snores away, hah...
      #23 Oh, wow, while we had been seeing plenty of Pipsqueak and Luna fanart before, of course, seeing as her in Nightmare Moon form adds a whole different vibe to the idea! I like this though, somehow the contrast in the characters makes it even cuter, if that makes sense.
      #24 Mine!
      #26 Unusual though this picture is in many ways, I quite like it... it's a nice difference to see this artist use a more varied color palette when the urge occasionally strikes them. I love the subtle highlights and "pencil" strokes throughout' they add a nice feeling to this.

      Lovely Drawfriend today, most definitely!

      @jodyjm13

      Oh, I don't mind much either way... Shipping isn't generally my thing, but it doesn't make me run screaming in the other direction either. I was simply debating which way it leaned in my mind when the tags caught my eye. As I mentioned, the image is undeniably cute regardless. Nicely done.

      ReplyDelete
    43. I hate shipping, but I like the art style and the take on Dash's possible children (that dark one looks awesome) in #8. Also, #16, D'awww. Fluttershy in the pokemon world would be great.

      ReplyDelete
    44. Out of curiosity, what was #2?

      ReplyDelete
    45. Wow! Thanks for the feature! I also thank the comments on it so far.

      My favorites on the others are 3, 10, 16, and 20.

      I also love 8. I normally hate shipping but this one...dang the artist made it feel...right. Congrats to the artist, first shipping image I ever liked. .....wow

      ReplyDelete
    46. @jodyjm13

      To my knowledge it (#24, I mean) never was posted before... I'm pretty sure the only one of my pieces that made it from that Roundup was the Fluttershy/Mudkip one (my least favorite of the bunch, naturally). One can only imagine why it's showing up here now, but oh well, I shall not complain! ^.^

      @Harwick

      Oh, my, considering how much I admire your work, that's most kind of you to say... *blush* Thank you! =^^=

      @rustedrabbit

      And ahh I see, so it's not strictly meant as a shipping pic then... well that's nice. Even though I would consider myself as a fan of the Rarijack pairing, I still try to leave some room in most of my fanarts of them for interpretation, and certainly I avoid sauciness as that has never been my thing in artworks whether I like a pairing or not. In fact, my picture above is a very good example of what I'm talking about as well... for those who like it can pretty easily be seen as PinkieDash, but for those who don't it doesn't have to be.

    47. 16. Lol, big-lipped Fluttershy. Oh wait, that's a Cyndaquil...

    50. #16 is one of the greatest things I have ever seen.

    51. I wish I could have seen what number 2 was before it got taken down. It's kind of depressing.

      1 is absolutely beautiful and I love it.

    56. Pretty good Drawfriend
      I'll say even though I never watched the show, I knew someone would do a sunny in fillydelphia

      ReplyDelete
    57. I'm sorry other drawings and imma let you finish, but Dinobot riding Luna is the best drawing of all time, ALL TIME!

      ReplyDelete
    58. Sunny is a great show!!! That artwork brightened my day a little bit! =)

      ReplyDelete
    59. Awesome as DinoLuna was, I'm too overcome with d'aww from #22 (particularly Twilight and Smarty Pants) and disturbance from #11 (Apple Bloom really does seem to be a magnet for all things weird and dangerous, but if Discord's KoRL, I'd hate to see who Ganondorf gets played by!) to take much notice.

      ReplyDelete
    60. #2 "All you need is a hat."

      #11 This. Yes please.

      #16 WaitnoGAH! Gahahahahaaaa. Hnnnnngsomuch. It's...too....I can't.....whyyyyyyy.

      #23 And then Nightmare Moon ate Pipsqueak alive. And there was much rejoicing (I'm sorry, I'll stop).

      #29 Yes! All my yes! All the yes that ever was and ever will be!

      ReplyDelete
    61. Okay, Fluttershy with a baby Cyndaquil is just too adorable.

      Love #22 as well. Favorites there are Twilight, Rarity, and Fluttershy with her juicebox. :D

      ReplyDelete
    62. #8: Rainbowdash was bad with children in my headcannon....until this pic.
      #9: I came Lightning!

    63. My best friend is the maker of #29. He is currently spazzing out right now with unbridled glee over how much everyone seems to like it. On his behalf, thanks for all the great comments you bronies :D

      Also, he's currently putting together a fanfic crossing over Beast Wars and MLP, so hopefully that'll go somewhere just as awesome ^^

      ReplyDelete
    64. So many Drawfriends.

      #1 These are simply such gorgeous pieces. Beautiful detail and style.
      #3 Rarity's huge hats make everyone feel better!
      #6 This one made me giggle. Especially Celestia back there. Lmao.
      #8 Whoa, that's colorful. lol The dark one on the far left has a pretty design. Though something seems off about her to me. The two others are cute. <3
      #11 Ah, Windwaker. That's what instantly came to mind when I saw the thumbnail before seeing the hat or such. And keep in mind, I don't play Zelda games even. lol Iconic game scenes are iconic.
      #14 Aww, Vinyl. You're being adorable again. Com'mere so I can hug you... without getting soup all over ourselves of course. <3
      #15 That's a new Ask Blog to me. Stalkerloo. lol
      #16 Took me a few moments to understand the portion around Fluttershy's nose. The yellows were running together for me. lol But d'awwww, cute.
      #18 Cutie Mark Crusader skydivers, yay! Sweetie Belle is obviously the funniest in this. :P
      #21 Awwww, that's adorable. These cute Bonbon and Lyra pics always get me. They're just such a sweet couple. <3
      #22 D'awwwwww again! So very much diabetes with this indeed. Why you all so darn cute! <3
      #23 Pipsqueak's body is ready!
      #25 And yet another d'awwwww moment in this one. The art style is really cool too. More realistic, but not too realistic. I think it helps lend to the d'awwww factor in it's own way. I really like it. :)
      #27 Dat Cheerilee face. <3
      #30 Dat Batmare. I wonder who his secret identity could be...

      All in all, there seemed to be an excessive amount of d'awww and cuteness in this Drawfriend. Then again, there usually is a lot in each one. :D

    75. Awesome Tsitra made #1 again! This is probably my favorite one of the main 6 he has done. Also #3 looks gorgeous too! Agh, so much good Pony art!
