15 NATG2017 - DAY10 - Derpys Domination - DarkDabula
Never mess with Derpy when it comes to muffins or she will use the techniques taught by Princess Luna !
Hi guys !
After a rough piece from yesterday, I took me more time today to create something with better quality !
Today the topic of the Newbie Artist Training Ground is a rough one.
First I wanted to make a classic medieval fighting scenery. But then I think a little bit and came to the idea what would happen if somepony tries to get the last muffin before Derpy. Then Princess Luna with her Canterlot voice came into my head and this is the result. Maybe I missed the topic a little bit ...
I am very pleased with this and I am surprised that I brought that Derpy pose from my head onto the paper. Some days it just flows :D
Hope you like it too.

Once in front of the tank column she raised her hoof as she stared mournfully at the once bussling town she was about to rain hell upon. Quietly cursing the defenders' refusal to surrender she lowered her hoof, signaling the tanks to start their barrage.
May the eternal night come and end this nightmare.

Rainbow Dash as a Polish Hussar, a bit outside the usual drawings, but that's the point right!
Anyway, I had fun and learned a thing or two so it was well worth it.

I actually an idea like this one last night for a fanfic, and when I saw the prompt I figured it would be perfect. (Pillow fighting counts as fighting, right?)

World could totally take on the giant spider monster in a fair fight. He just doesn't want to. He's been taking on spiders in honorable combat all day, and could really use a break.

117 Wrestling is Magic: prompt #10: Establish dominance, right of way! - Jameson Ethan
Commentator:
"Finally, the match starts with the ring of the bell as Spotlight locks up with Rocket Tier! Already, she is backing him up against the turnbuckle, displaying complete control and power over her little brother. However, Rocket Tier is also showing some resiliency by trying to shove Spotlight's face away from him. From what we can tell, neither wrestler aren't going to give up without spending everything that they got! Even by the damage Rocket Tier suffered, he's still able to go on with starting the match--this rivalry that had been going on between them had gone long enough. Will it just be the beginning of the something new if Spotlight wins; or rather something harsh if Rocket Tier should somehow surprise his sister with a victory?"
I missed day 9, i don't if i have the strength and courage to go back for it.
Pre-bell shenanigans sometimes builds up the vileness in the heart of a heel-wrestler and helps gets the baby-face even more over with the crowd.

123 Anger Management - Binky T.
So this was a fun one to do! I don't think I've had too many chibi pieces with males OR characters interacting with each other. So this was kinda of a win for both departments. This is kinda based on small headcanons for them. Doctor Caballeron being the leader who's just trying his best to help, Nogan being the calmer one of the group and strong enough the restraint Biff, Biff being the one who's always on edge of snapping with unrelenting Hooflyn rage, and the white one (I just call him Flash Sync) being the one usually who succumbs to Biff's outbursts (most of the time he does kinda deserve it). I really loved the style of this one, though if I had to be honest I would say the hardest ones to do here were Biff and Nogan both due to their rugged appearances and trying to maintain that while they were chibis.

133 Grappling With Saddle In The Wee Hours - Frith
After a ten hour work day I didn't have the spoons to get out my sketchbook even though I knew what I was going to draw for this -- Twilight grappling with her winter saddle. Getting up in time for deadline was a bear. By the time I sat down with a pencil I had only 20 minutes left. That was not enough time, even for a sketchy sketch. Maybe I'll rework this for the makeup gallery. Nice horsey anatomy in this model.
The prompts so far have been a cut above those of recent ATG's! They're keeping me guessing as to what is next and I'm not having déjà vu when they appear. Thanks Calpain! ^_^

Hasbro may not be able to show Twilight punching Tirek in the face, BUT WE SURE AS HELL CAN!
