Isn't it nice to get our ponies up and moving? Just like how we don't like to stay in one place for too long our ponies have places to go and things to see. For art though it is a great way to put your ponies into all sorts of different poses, stretch your drawing muscles a little and get out of that standing pose with some experimentation!
For tonight we managed to pull together 174 ponies for tonight which brings our two day total to 353 ponies altogether! Excellent job so far everyone!
Now that we have gotten some of our more standard prompts out of the way, one of the things I like to introduce after the first couple prompts is some practice drawing emotion. Getting the right emotional tone for your ponies and your piece can greatly affect how the piece feels so getting some practice with emotion is really important I feel. Of course, feel free to interpret the prompts as literally or as figuratively as you want, that's where we have the most fun.
So for today our prompt is going to be to Draw a pony filled with rage / Draw a pony about to lose it.
As usual you can find our compiler for the day 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.
Animations do not animate when sent through the compiler! Include some text with your submitted animation that people should follow your links to the source to see the animation in full.
Remember, our compiler for the old prompt is up a few hours even after this post goes up with the new prompt so feel free to submit your submission to the previous day's submitter!
Also, if you are late submitting and the submitter is closed, don't just throw your pic into the next day's submitter. Wait for a Makeup Day to submit!

1 I take life literally - Zeal Crown
4 Spring Is Life - Pone-Dancer
I immediately thought of the season spring for some reason. So here is a character named Swirlz 'springing' flowers to life!
Swirls belongs to Strawberry-HeartRose and is seen here: https://www.deviantart.com/strawberry-heartrose/art/Finally-free-to-be-me-830850143

5 Dinky's Delivery Service - GoggleSparks
Mobile filly playing clutch in the game of urgent delivery.
8 Happy Horse - RhythmPixel
She's happy, and I like how this looks. The goal going forth is trying out many different poses and all that stuff.
10 ATG 2020 with Sunset Shimmer, prompt 2 - Meto30
After 16 months of hiatus, I returned to art only two weeks ago, and I decided to participate in this year's ATG to warm myself up further. This year my overall plan is to go through the entire ATG run with Sunset Shimmer's EQG form! I'll probably have to mix in some canon pony forms every now and then, just so I know I can draw ponies still.
11 ATG 2020: Day 2 - Apple Bloom Springs to Life - TechnoColt
On the second day of ATG, with the help of some Moon Shoes, Apple Bloom springs to Life. Life brand cereal, that is! Applejack is none too pleased about it.
24 Sunset's jumping for Joy - Daimando
For this one, I went for the filly Sunset Shimmer, and I had her just...jump. And if anyone asks why Filly Sunset? It's part of my AU, remember?
25 A Pony on the Move - Th3iPodM0N
26 Day 2 Spring time Sisterhood - silverRoddo jD
Here is another rejected series pitch. The Springtime Sisterhood. Spring loaded ponies saving the day.
28 Aquabiogenesis - NotADeliciousPotato
Aquabiogenesis: The formation of life from water, and also a word I just made up on the spot. Oh well.
Sea Swirl springs to life out of the water.

33 Springtime for Discord - Rapidsnap (Gary Mitchelhill)
Discord springs a suprise on unsuspecting ponies.
36 Comet Travel - MLT
Unique to the Monoceros Star Pony is their ability to transform near-earth objects such as comets into forms of travel, altering their speed and direction at will.
38 [SFM] Sudden weight off her shoulder (NATG 2) - red4567
I think this counts. Trixie lives in a mobile home, so she is a moible pony.
42 Activate Program Sweetiebot - Kylami
My first time joining this, but second upload!
Day two of Equestria Daily's ATG 2020, prompt taken was "Springing to Life"
Here Squeakiebot is about to take her first steps into the world. Enjoy!

44 Nature Pony Springing out of Hibernation - midnight-anomaly
I've been wanting to try learning to draw for some time now, and I finally have the time to do it.
45 Prince whatever on a mobile skateboard - gilbert
thought i would showcase one of my favorite brony artist prince whatever on a skateboard
49 Honk! - flutterkind
50 iPony - Beep... Boop... *ring ring* - Khaki Cap
Artist training grounds x: Day 2: Draw a mobile pony/Draw a pony springing to life.
Hey, this technically counts as a "mobile pony".
It's iPony. It can interact with you, does phone-calls and has alot of nice features.
Heheh... *beep boop*

57 Exercise - Soobel
If you stole all the cakes from the Celestia's pantry ... Then run!
Princess Amore's best result in 100 meters was 50 meters.

58 Magic Trick-sie... gone wrong - LennyStendhal
Here's a pony springing to life! At least, that's what Trixie is slowly trying to do, after accidentally turning herself into a statue ^^; The dangers of being a magician.
60 wake up Coffee - Taurson
NATG 2020 Day2: little ironic that I fell asleep working on this one but the prompt was mobile pony or a pony springing up to life, hope you enjoy the animation :D
63 Pinkie motion - Wolfy
Pinkie's always got a spring in her step. Or is it a bounce? Sometimes she apears as she's made of rubber - distorting all the laws of physics.
64 NATG 2020 - Day 2: Springing (back) to Life - tallaferroxiv
Kind ponies give other ponies a second chance at life.
68 [ATG 2020] Day 2 - Springing Upwards - MelodiousMarci
Pinkie fit this description pretty well, and yes I'm joining in ATG again, hopefully I can keep up with it this time, gonna attempt to try and make every art a transparent render | Made with Source FilmMaker
78 Applebloom torments tiny Applejack - Solar Spark
"Look on the bright side, AJ, now you get to watch over your little sister all the time, just like you wanted."
80 Hopping Around - PianoCube
Not sure if I prefer taking the picture with or without flash. A scanner would be nice, but I'll take what I have.
It's tricky enough to just draw a pony on its own. Making them interact with something (like a pogo stick) in a way that looks somewhat natural is significantly harder. And after uploading I realized I forgot the tail, but I don't feel like spending more time on it now.

83 Springing. Just springing - Scout Guy
I mean, what else can I say? The prompt was "draw a mobile pony/pony springing to life", so I made Pinkie springing up out of a box. It works, right?
86 ATG 2020 Day 2: Pinkies Pogo Stick - NaomisHeadspaceART
Hey everyone!
Finally got my submission finished! Kinda funny that I mostly went with the "Mobile pony" side of the prompt, but ended up having a pun-like take on the "springing to life" part of the prompt. Maybe the spirit of Pinkie just possessed me or something!
Have a wonderful day!

87 Cozy Breakin' Free - Huffylime
Taking the "springing to life" as more of a "back to life" for Cozy here.
She'll get the rest of that stone off eventually!

89 2020 ATG X - Day 2 - Spring Apple Run - KirbyLiscious
Hoo boy, foreshortening is hard, as usual~ uwu
93 Pounce of Doom - Tigerett
I made the stunning realization that Gallus is part lion, meaning he is also part cat. Unfortunately for him (and Sandbar), Smolder has also discovered this fact.
100 Afternoon Flight - dzamie
This was fun! Wings are hard, but I think it turned out well, and I'm rather proud of the background.
103 Springing into Action - SOENJAY
I 100% accidentally read this prompt as "Springing into action" so I drew Littlepip doing just that. I think this still counts though.
109 Chrysalis returns - Tsunami
A mysterious spell has awoken Chrysalis from her curse and soon she will spring into action and wreak havoc across Equestria! Hope you like her!
112 Derpy Bat takes a ride - Shrimp
Getting better at shading and details, still awful at the pony itself. I'll get there someday!
116 Impetus Blitz at 5 in the morning - Joyous Tempo
120 Starting Line - Cornerback Fluttershy
121 2020 ATGs Day 2/Chrysalis Day 2020 - EbonyCrystal1986
As we all know, Pharynx was quite the feisty one before he was reformed, and of course that way back to when he was a little guy. Queen Chrysalis trained all of her little ones herself from the moment they could walk, though he showed the most potential and she clearly saw that one day as he practically ripped apart his training dummy to shreds until there was nothing left, showing off some impressive moves in the process. She couldn't help but smirk evilly, beaming with pride on the inside, knowing he would be VERY useful to her in the future...
122 Run - Frith
I'm out of ideas for a clever title for this, so Run will have to do. I was able to plan out and start this one yesterday, on a day off work, because I was 95% certain today's prompt would involve moving. Tomorrow, whose nose?
124 Pinkie and the Portal - Faith?
143 Daily Sketch #280: Late - johnerose126
Alternative joke: Not as late as this post. Shade's pretty bad, but colored in more so than last time, so this'll do.
144 It's Time to Be Awesome - Skypause
There wound up being a lot less physical movement in this one than other and metaphorical types of movement.
One of my top three pony moments is rainbow pone singing about peaceful revolutionary action.
In my opinion, the movie is totally about "what if ponies came to our world" in a gritty way... not like EQG. If you haven't seen this movie...do. It's great and actually on of my all-time favorites.
Don't put your fingers in your ears.

154 Skate Punk Scootaloo - Twilightning Storm
Scootaloo found some cool new gear over at Button Mash's house.
156 ATG X Day II - RizDub
I thought the phrase "springing to life" had the implication that the pony wasn't technically "alive" to begin with, so...
160 A pony.... springing.. to.. life.... - MarshMallowDub (Art)
Yes, I know, I'm sorry, but I couldn't think of anything else, this awful pun didn't want to leave my head, so I had to do it. Pony Life Pinkie credit goes to icey-wicey-1517.
164 Dash Nyoom - thattagen
Nyoom!
This turned out so clean! I'm starting to like the idea of stylized stickers for this ATG.

165 - RealShadowGrave
167 A Hairy Situation. - Binky T.
Had a lot of fun with this one! Pinkie Pie is just pure cartoon energy and I'm all for it. Also, an excuse to draw Pinkamena is always a welcome one.
168 Freebee Honey - KorenCZ11
If you get the numerous references here, you're pretty cool.
The obvious one though, is the reference to my story, Star Overhead, which you can read here:

172 Acrylic On The Move - Rainbows2424
Personally, I like how this drawing came out. It has got a more cartoony design to it than most of my drawings, and it is definitely cute, alright?
173 NATG X Day 2: Cotton Cloudy on a Mobile Cloud - CMC_Scootaloo
Day 2 of the Newbie Artist Training Grounds X! For the prompt of Day 2 "Draw a mobile pony/Draw a pony springing to life", I drew Cotton Cloudy who chills on a cloud while the wind moves it over the blue sky.
I did not know what to draw at first, but then I looked at moving clouds in the sky and my pony inspiration was springing to life!

Just a springy pone~
