Celestia Day Has Come to a Close! Embrace the Night!

THE NIGHT HAS ARRIVED. 

Celestia day is officially over. Hopefully you all enjoyed it this year. It was a lot of fun compiling all that crazy stuff for our often-indisposed sunhorse.

To catch up on it, head on over to this label. We had quite a bit of solar goodness this year! 

If you still want to participate in something here on EQD, be sure to check out the Ponies Around the World or MLP Collection event.

And according to our calendar, we have an entire day dedicated to Lyra and Bonbon on July 6th. Expect reminders as we get a week out!

Celestia Day - Open Art Compilation!

Another pony day, another compilation of art! We've got Celestia drawing from people of all skill levels here. As always, only new art is favored here created in the last few weeks for Celestia day. Some older stuff might slip through, but if yours didn't make it it was probably old. If it wasn't, send an email and I'll add it~ It might have gotten mixed in the jumble. 

We are actually doing the Artist Training Grounds next month, so be sure to tune in for that as well! Daily art prompts with loads of others to hopefully learn to draw cartoon equines like a pro!

If you are looking for the "Best of" art Drawfriend posts, have some links:

• 2018 Best of Celestia Drawfriend Compilation
• 2018 Best of Celestia (Anthro / Humanized) Compilation

Now go get some Vitamin D below!

Drawfriend - Best of Celestia - Anthro and Humanized Art

The last Celestia Day was before we really had dedicated humanized and anthro compilations, so have one big one dedicated to both fields. This is primarily new art from the last year, though some old goodies are mixed in. We've had eight years to build the collection of it after all.

For the best 2018 PONY version, go over here. That will cover all of the best art made in the last year.

As with all anthro/humanized posts, expect  a lot of bikinis and bikini armor. We've got a lot of male artists in the fandom after all.

Go get it all below.

Drawfriend Stuff - BEST Art of Celestia (2018 Edition)

Time for ART! This post is dedicated to the last 365 days of pony artistry focused on the sun!

Like Vinyl and Octavia Day, I'll be splitting this into two posts. One dedicated to pony Celestia, and another dedicated to anthro/humanized. The second post will be going up in one hour over here.

For older art that wasn't created in the last year, covering a completely different time period, head here:

• Drawfriend Stuff Pony Art Gallery - BEST OF CELESTIA (Part 1 2017)
• Drawfriend Stuff Pony Art Gallery - BEST OF CELESTIA (Part 2 2017)

Now go! Bask in the sun. She has had a wonderful year and wants to show you what she's got!

Editorial: My Relatable Pony: Princess Celestia

Princess Celestia: The hope and ruler of Equestria. She is a shining example to all her subjects, living her life in service to all in her kingdom. Leading with wisdom, grace, and a lot of help from a certain purple pony, Celestia often carries the weight of the world on her shoulders and takes that responsibility very seriously.

But this princess is so much more than warm smiles and sunshine. She's seen some of Equestria's darkest days while having to encourage those around her. Her struggles and personality resonate with us because, even as a princess, Celestia has a lot in common with us.

Time to take a look at some of Celestia's more relatable qualities.

Celestia Day Begins! Or At Least in a Few Hours

It's the middle of the night EQD time, so Celestia is totally asleep. Once the sun rises here though, expect a jam-packed day with every other hour dedicated to the princess of the moon!

We've got art, plushies, comics, fanfics, wallpapers, and a host of other things for you all to check out later today. Or at least once they are compiled up. Some of these things can take a few hours.

The open art post is still open, though the sooner you get the art in, the better chance you will have of seeing it added once the post goes up tonight. This post is dedicated to new art, so please don't send old things.

Anyway, see you all later for a Celestial STORM!

My Little Pony: Ponyville Mysteries #2 Released Today! - Download Links, Variants, Discussion!

The second issue of the Ponyville Mysteries comic series has arrived!

Just what sort of problem can the CMC solve at the Ponyville Bowling Alley?

I can think of one, but I'm pretty sure figuring out what happened to Theodore Donald "Donny" Kerabatsos might be a little too intense (and somber) for a comedic mystery comic.

So what are the CMC investigating? You'll just have to check it out in the usual links after the break!
