As always, if you'd like to submit a piece for Open Art, send an email to Submit@equestriadaily.com with a Deviant Art or Tumblr Link, and title the email OPEN ART

NaPoWriMo - Week 3: Defining Success and Failure

Are those tears of joy? Tears of sadness? At this point in the month, anything's possible. Regardless, by now you might be well on your way to achieving your goal! Maybe even past it! ... Or, not. 

Join me below the break for details on how to make sense of the work you've done this month, and submission details.

Nightly Discussion #1629

How many of you play Overwatch? There seems to be quite a few pony crossovers with the game so I'm guessing it is pretty popular with the pony crowd at least.

Evening guys! Hope your Black Friday conquests went well if you participated! Ready to relax and chat a bit?

Incredible Attention to Detail! - Imalou Artist Spotlight / Interview

Of all the artists we have here in ponyland, I think Imalou has been the most dominant as my phone background. So many of her drawings have taken over my lock screen while greatly improving my mood every time I check the submit box simply by being there and being amazing. I'm pretty sure her attention to detail is the best in the fandom, from incredibly complex eyes, to individual hairs adding a whole new level of fluff to her cartoon horses. Needless to say, this stuff is awesome.

Who better to artist spotlight?! And just like her art, this is one of the most detailed we've gotten. Head on down below the break for that, plus a short gallery!

And as always, drop some comments if you like these posts! It's always appreciated.

Comic: Dinner / Teach / Pone Wars 7:17 / Notte Insonne

I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! While it can be a pain to get everything together to meet with family it can be rewarding to see everyone, especially if you only ever see them a few times a year.

Comics guys! Get them all after the break.

Music: M Pallente - A Time To Love [Rock]

M Pallente used to produce a whole bunch of pony rock music back in the day, and after a few years away he's back with a new song! This one's all about celebrating the good times we've had regardless of how much changes, and that's certainly something I can get behind. The vocals are great and the instrumental backs up solidly too, so check it out below!

BABSCon 2019 is Carving Up Prices for Black Friday Weekend

BABSCon is running a 20% Off sale on registration for the weekend for Black Friday. If you want to attend, now is probably a good time to buy tickets.

Head on down below for the presser and links.

SCOOP: Amazon Listing for My Little Pony: The Manga Reveals Boatloads of New Information!

IDW learned that Amazon.com spoils everything at least 7 months in advance of a Trade Paperback book's publication. Come to think of it, that might be part of the reason why IDW's Trade Paperbacks now collect at most 6 issues of the comics instead of 4…

Anyways, with the end of November upon us, Amazon.com has done what it usually does and listed  books for preorder 7 months before their publication date. This batch of preorders happened to contain My Little Pony: The Manga by Seven Seas Entertainment. And in includes a boatload of information that wasn't in the original announcement from last week!

Starting with the reveals for the writer and illustrators of the manga, the price point, the page count, the dimensions of the book, the ISBN, and the fact that this is an Original English Language (OEL) Manga.

So no, this book isn't coming from The Land of the Rising Sun. And while that fact settles in, you can check out the full solicitation after the break!

Music: Etherium Apex - Princess Of Night (feat. Luck Rock) [Progressive House]

Etherium is back with another house tune, but this time they've brought along Luck Rock to provide some pretty neat vocals. Sung as an ode to Princess Luna, this is the first time I've heard Luck's vocals in an electronic track and it works really well, alongside some excellent energetic synths in the drop. Check it out below!

My Little Pony Black Friday Sales Around the Internet - Amazon, WLF, and More

Usually I like to compile up black Friday stuff, but this month is pretty much dead on that front. For whatever reason, big box retailers have almost completely ignored pony this year. Both Walmart and Target don't have any cartoon horses on the list, and Khols has a buy one get one 50% off sale going for just about every toy brand except Hasbro. 

Luckily, Amazon did not forget pony. In fact, they have quite a few items tagged Black Friday for pony. The UK has a completely different set from the USA at that.  Have some links:

Amazon:

Amazon US Black Friday My Little Pony Offerings
Amazon UK Black Friday My Little pony Offerings

The UK wins on random merch, while the USA primarily has toys. I have no idea why.

Amazon also has had a few random pony lightning deals, though they are only up for an hour or so.

It also looks like everything from their previous sale is back, though percents are slightly different than our list. I'll update that once I get some time and when it's not 3am.

For Fans By Fans (AKA We Love Fine):

Running a 25% Off coupon code "BLACKFRIYAY" (Yes, with the Y replacing D). Their pony section is over here, though you can use it on anything.

Teepublic:

Will be running their 30% off sale for the weekend, details here.

Hasbro Toy Shop:

20% off on your first order sale. Get that here.


If you find any other Black Friday deals, please send them to submit and I will add them! It looks like all "Friday" events are weekend long, so it can't hurt to keep a tally.
