You know, even though I did make time one of the prompts you guys could do I was still surprised to see how many folks used Doctor Whooves for their drawings! For a character that has been around for so long in the fandom I am happy to see that he keeps getting love today. Ah, it is always such a delight to go through these galleries, how I have missed it over the past year!
Now that the dust has settled a bit it would appear that we have gathered 179 ponies for our very first gallery! Not a bad start at all, you all are awesome!
As you can probably guess, especially if you've been in previous ATGs, it is time to get our ponies moving and for our newer artists out there that is certainly a whole different ball game than just keeping out ponies still. So for our second prompt, I want to see you guys Draw a mobile pony/Draw a pony springing to life.
As usual our submitter is here!
Max Image Resolution is 2000x2000! Resize your pictures to make sure they are the appropriate size, any image software should be able to help you.

1 Standing Smol Hors - Frith
I expected the first prompt to be announced 24 hours ago, so I spent most of the day today drawing this while I waited. Ponies have these tiny nostrils and even when the really talented artists draw semi-realistic versions of them, the nostrils remain tiny, practically vestigial and impractical. So I decided I'd try to equip my standing pony with real, useful nostrils.
3 NATG 2020 Day Balancing with a water cup - Devinbay
Were back doing this again. I will try my best to try something new and fun

This year’s self-appointed theme for the NTAG 2020, I’ll attempt “MLP FiM/EG rejected series concepts�? I guess. Idk.
9 Starlight Glimmer Stuck in Time - TechnoColt
It is officially Day 1 of the 2020 Newbie Artist Training Grounds, and Starlight has asked Discord for some help with time-travel! She ought to learn to phrase her requests more carefully.
10 I'd be confused too if I was frozen in the middle of a dance - Zeal Crown
12 On your marks! - LennyStendhal13
Maybe she's training for the Running of the Leaves? ;3
Happy ATG to everyone! And happy 10th birthday to this beautiful event ^^

14 No Jazzercise - SazerLite
I return to the one time each year I actually motivate myself to draw, and I'm going with a low-res Microsoft Paint style. I've reached the pinnacle of laziness.
Anyway, this guy likes to work out, but he's been given the difficult task to do absolutely nothing (though I'm a natural at it).

21 Dashie in Pencil - Martin
I've recently got into drawing as a way to try something new, i never thought i'd be any good at it. This is the drawing i'm most proud of. i hope its good enough and i hope to draw more in the future,
24 Sweetie Belle in Pencil - Martin
Most recent drawing after being given some advice from a friend, i'm improving every day.
27 Standing - RhythmPixel
Will attempt to participate once again, however will definitely not have the time for everyday. This is a good opportunity to see what I can do in a short amount of time. Also good luck to everyone else!
31 A Cold Snap with Coldnelius Snap - Daimando
Description: Coldnelius Snap is the leader of the Windigos Guild, a cult group dedicated to freezing all of Equestria. He is as tall as Princess Celestia and often speaks with a cockney accent. But underneath that smug personality is one of the most dangerous ponies ever. While he is only capable of cold-based magic, it also makes him as deadly as some of the known faces of the world. He and his cult members enjoy spreading fear and chaos across the land, and they sometimes resort to provoking their enemies into fighting each other to strengthen their cold hearts.
32 Rainbow Standing - Aero
First time in 6 years drawing a pony. First time in a long time actually trying to be consistent in drawing. I hope I can improve a lot over the course of these days.
34 Standing - Zizi

38 Trapped in Time - Th3iPodM0N
39 Stand In Derpy - Rapidsnap (Gary Mitchelhill)
Was going to have Lyra standing, but couldn't find her, so I got a Stand In to replace her. Cheers Derpy.
45 Saving by Stopping Time - Khaki Cap
I'm not sure, but I'm sure some of you will get this.
Either that or it's classic meme reference and I'm lazy to sketch something proper. First idea was for GMod T-pose and somepony other dragging her somewhere else with physics gun, but then I changed it to this.

46 ED: NATG 2020 Day 1 - Addelum
I have always had trouble drawing Twilight and this year was no exception. I hope I'm getting closer, though!
47 Office Doomsday Clock - Pony4Koma
This is what a fast drawing after three days with only 4 hours of sleep per night looks like...
49 Standing Pinkie - flutterkind
51 Minuette's new job - Kylami
My first time joining Equestria Daily's Artist Training Grounds. Used the opportunity to play a little with some of my texture brushes with Krita, ended with this.
Minuette or Colgate welcomes you to Jurassic Park, a place stuck in time! Or as the theme goes.

Quarantine's going to be a bit longer for this lad.
Happy Training Grounds! :D

68 Doctor Whooves Stuck in Time - Solar Spark
He thought back to all the adventures and creatures he had met since he found himself stuck in Equestria. He thought back to Derpy and Roseluck, and he wondered: if he could get the TARDIS working again, if he could once again explore the cosmos and all of time and space, escaping death time and again, would he really want to? Or was it time to stop running? Had he finally found a place to call home?
70 - Nicholas Granderson
I drew this with a mouse lol
74 The Persistence of Malady - phallen1
Obvious idea is obvious, both for the prompt and my take on it.
75 Day 1 - Standing/Stuck In Time - Caneighdian
I'm thankful that EQD has done this again this year. Given everything that's going on in the world right now, it's a welcome dose of positivity.

99 Displaced isn't Dead Scootaloo - kits
Scootaloo may have a few of the facts of Twilight's "death" wrong. Namely that she's not.
From The Enchanted Library
Too rushed to color or finish. Between naps and work and my other obligations, the ink won't be dry in time to color. So have a quick sketch instead.

Hey everyone!
NaomisHeadspaceART here. I submitted some drawings for ATG last year, and I'm looking forward to practicing my skills again! Maybe this time I'll actually complete the thing, LOL.
Have a wonderful day!

109 Standing Coco - Huffylime
Nothing fancy, just trying to work myself into drawing a standing pony. I started drawing last year after Bronycon for the first time like, ever. I've seen previous progress from drawing daily, so I hope to see more by participating in NATG for the first time this year!
Have fun everyone!

118 Circuit Mane Standing Up again - Circuit Mane
Corel Painter 2019 with Calligraphy pen (first time)
120 Rainbow Dash - FriendshipIsHorses
I spent most of the day working on a more ambitious painting that, it has become apparent, is not going to be finished in time. I hope this Rainbow Dash will suffice until we get to our first makeup day. New Artist Training Grounds, yay, we're doing this!
121 A Simple Zecora Drawing - Daimando
I think I'm taking this Artist Training Ground a bit seriously, as this is my first time drawing Zecora of all Ponies. Anyway, this is my own take on Zecora from My Little Pony, as I added in my own slight twist to the character.
Note: I am aware there are only four rings each on her neck and arm. I couldn't fit five rings in, mainly because this is my first time drawing her.

124 Daily Sketch #179: UnderSTAND - johnerose126
First time entering (officially) and first time with digital art (from traditional)! Choosen Sandbar as the Chosen One for the rest of this journey (starting things off slow instead of the obvious JoJo reference).

My OC has changed style over the years. His hair looks a lot more like mine in real life now.

134 A Moment Stuck in Time - EbonyCrystal1986
After hearing today's prompt, and since I've been feeling nostalgic as of late, and I've heard the phrase "stuck in time" a lot with photography, I knew exactly what to do for Ebony and her family. This pic is actually based on an RL photo I have of my own family, with a couple of changes made to fit, and that photo's one of my personal favorite memories as well. :'3 (there's a bit of a story to this pic, too, but you have to follow the link :3)
138 Quick Twilight - Calpain
Big tip, don't accidentally sleep in for five hours and then scramble to get an art piece done. Could have turned out much better, but I'll take it for the 20 minutes I managed to put into it. Will try better next time.
139 Pony Stuck in Time - A Pony Artist
144 Say Their Names - Skypause
There's not anything I can say or draw to make this situation better. I wanted to bring attention to a real problem. Please listen to people when they say they are suffering.
Love.

A recommendation I haven't heard discussed much for Covid-19: if you have the flexibility to do your shopping at off-peak times, please do so so that essential workers don't need to wait in long lines after a long day at work.
