So many emotional ponies tonight, but I think, considering what this pic is based off, this might take the cake. Oh Discord... Anyhow, we've willed our ponies into existence, made them move and now have given them the ability to express themselves! With some of the basics covered we can start branching out a bit and see how you all handle it!
Our ponies have been known to get into all sorts of trouble and ours for the NATG will be no exception! While our ponies were fit to burst yesterday, is it possible for them be on the more subtle side? We'll find out as tonight I would like you to Draw a pony with a secret / Draw a pony cracking under pressure!
As for yesterday, we managed to bring in a wonderful 123 ponies, Bringing our total up to 397 ponies in total! Keep up the amazing work everyone! We'll crack 1000 soon enough!

3 On Good Authority - LittleLooney
Moonbeam: You know, Twilight, you could've just used the front door. Twilight: Who needs doors when you're a princess? Moonbeam: But you left a big, gaping hole in the middle of my living room. What do I do about it? Twilight: Square it off and convert it into a window? Moonbeam: ... Twilight: Then you can say you've upgraded to a new version of windows! Moonbeam: Get out.

28 Anger (NATG 3) - Generic-artist
Draw a pony bursting with emotion / Draw a pony who can't contain themselves.. Well Prince Penumbra Meadows fits perfectly with that! When angry he cannot restrain himself at all and SNAPS! Being the son of King Sombra probably doesn't help.

40 Deep love - Midnightracoon
This is a crack ship of smolder and terramar, I thought they looked cute together and decided to do some fan art of them. Smolders swimsuit was inspired by sirzi’s art, I don’t know if that illegal or not just giving credit to be safe.

47 Training Grounds Day 3 - Essentialsingularity
While I like drawing ponies with nice round butts, the general proportions of this one aren't entirely to my liking. Drawing limbs from the 3/4 angle is tough, and I'm still having trouble estimating the torse length, girth and anatomical details. I'll definitely give this pose another try!

49 Happy Pinkie - ScoutGuy
What was the prompt again? Bursting with emotion? Probably about as close as I can get with this. As for what Pinkie's excited about, your guess is as good as mine.

Twitter: https://twitter.com/notewise1?lang=en Hi there! Note here! I think this one feels like a better improvement than Day 2 was. I still don't like how big I made her body, and I'm not happy with my faces yet. But I'm much proud of this one! Ponk is my favorite Pony.

65 NATG DAY 3: Twilight takes Friendship so seriously - Cynac
The tilte says it all, not to sure if it counts as "Draw a pony bursting with emotion / Draw a pony who can't contain themselves", but Twilight certainly can't contain the seriousness of her expression and teachings of the importance of friendship. (Though seriously, 1/ I really need to brush up on my shading skills. my facial expressions too. Also, 2/ I desperately need to get myself some better tools. I should probably try and go digital, maybe).

79 I'm so excited... - Termyotter
Wanted to find a way to setting up the end and stumbled into a mini-story (story below not needed to get the joke line). A changeling had a relationship for some time. When things changed for them there was new chance to make what they had more real. It had been real for both before. He could never bring himself to do it though until now. Their partner however knew something was always amiss and eventually figured it out. They'd been just waiting until they were comfortable saying it.

85 NATG XI Day 3: Hard to Contain - AceBlazewing
I decided to take the second half of this prompt in a literal direction, to mix things up. =P Pinkie's always popping out of improbable places, but I like to think that power fails her sometimes, so that, at those times, she literally can't be contained. XD

86 Okayish, Lines should be thicker - ADrawingOwl
This one is sorta better, nothing to crazy in terms of perspective in dynamics. Lines need to be thicker for the next time. Maybe do better colors still? Needs more improvement overall.

88 Wrestling with Emotion - SOENJAY
Caliente works as a luchador wrestler and often times gets called away for matches as far South as Mexicolt. Needless to day, Mustang gets a little lonely waiting for his best buddy to return back to the frozen North of Whinnysota.

This... did not turn out the way I wanted it to. I wanted it to show Maud simply being extremely happy, but instead she turned out looking crazed.

93 Burst of Tears - Pone-Dancer
Eye-Candi cries every time the Shameless Herd welcomes another foal into their lives (his first daughter died in a tragic accident and he's felt empty ever since). Bri's birth pretty much sets the pattern for all the others. Marley is still exhausted from the event but is incredibly proud, and Rainbow Opal is just incredibly happy.

102 Stairs! - SamuDash
After having to take a break yesterday because I was tired after getting home late, this is my submission for 'a pony bursting with emotion'. I thought there would be enough Pinkies today, so I decided for another pretty emotional character that surely is very excited about something she sees... I think you can guess by the title. Anyway, it was very fun to draw!
