• Drawfriend Stuff #81

    Recovery edition!

    This was originally drawfriend #80, but my draft got destroyed by the blogger outage. 

    Unfortunately I don't have time to go re-locate all the sources for it (I usually do it when I find the image and delete them when I create the post).  I still have a bunch of email to go through and achievements to update before work tonight.

    Feel free to send me a list and I will drop it down at the bottom!

    You have probably seen a few of these images over the past few days for various things.  Sorry about the repeats.

    12. @Anonymous
      DERP, I misread "unicorn."
      I think that's lyra.

      ReplyDelete
    13. More #19 (I think?)
      Row 3 = Mayor Mare, Mr & Mrs Cake, Snips, Snails, Pony Joe(?), Hoity Toity, Photo Finish and Sapphire Shores.

      Row 4 = Wonderbolt members (Middle must be soarin', can't decide who the other two are), Derpy, The Doctor, Lyra, Bon-Bon, Buck Norris (or whatever his fanon name is, the tennis pony?) aaaand I don't know who the last could be.

      ReplyDelete
    14. are Applebloom and Dash supposed to be making a recognizable shape in 10? I can't puzzle it out...

      Flutterheart is adorbale though!

      ReplyDelete
    15. Bottom row is the wonderbolts, derpy, dr. whooves, Lyra and bon-bon, hoity-toity and... vinyl scratch?

      I see Photo Finish in the third row.

      ReplyDelete
    16. Please source the images.

      Thanks in advance.

      (I'm number 1 wooo)

      ReplyDelete
    17. Is the last one in #19 Vinal Scratch?

      ReplyDelete
    18. 6. Oh damn!
      7. Hello! Spoilers?
      8. Hilarious. That's canon for me.
      14/15. Really like the art style.
      18. D'awwww.

      ReplyDelete
    19. I'm going to be spending too long trying to identify everyone in 19, now.

      ReplyDelete
    20. This is a great overall bunch... but #18 is the cutest most wonderful thing. :D

      ReplyDelete
    21. Whoa! Number three is beautifully painted!
      And the brony who drew/painted #14/15... Needs more practice. Haha

      Other than that brilliant group!

      ReplyDelete
    22. Yes, #18 is the cutest thing ever.

      ReplyDelete
    23. @Paperpony: Ahah! I think the last one is Scratch, and I found out who the second-to-last one is: Ace. That tennis-pony.

      Third row is, Ma(yo)re of ponyville, Mr. and Mrs. Cake, Snips and Snails, Braeburn, Hoity-Toity, Photo Finish and... no idea what the last one is. But we've identified the rest!

      ReplyDelete
    24. 10 is so cute. love how fluttershy is making a heart

      ReplyDelete
    25. Whoop, #7 would be http://sagebrushpony.deviantart.com/#/d3g2wku !

      ReplyDelete
    26. #1 Reminds me of a pciture. It was man standing on a cliff overlooking mountains and landscape, abnove the clouds, with a walking stick in his hands. Pretty similar, even the coloring :P
      #2 Totally using that as wallpaper !!!
      #5 Nope its NOT !!!
      #7 Is that the continuation to that picture where Twilight is standing over the bloodied, bruised up body of Celestia?
      #9 At first I was BWAHAHAHAHAH. Then I started to shiver.
      #10 Cute overload imminent!
      #16 We are doomed. Now someone draw that in manicpinkie version.
      #19 Personally I think that one is ingenious :)

      ReplyDelete
    27. JESUS CHRIST, I'M HAVING DEJA VU. I REMEMBERED I DREAMT THREE YEARS AGO I WAS SCROLLING THIS PAGE AS SOON AS I SAW #2 AND 3.

      Bloody Hell, I'm tripping balls, bronies.

      ReplyDelete
    28. Last of the 3rd Row is Sapphire Shores, I bet.

      ReplyDelete
    31. Is that... is that a fucking Caspar David Friedrich painting with Rarity??? MY body WAS NOT ready.

      ReplyDelete
    32. @Anonymous
      HAH I knew it I saw it somehwere !!!

      Didn't know who painted it thought but I recall using that picture on a website I did like...pff...lots of years ago as a kid :P

      Thanks for the name brony ^-^

      ReplyDelete
    33. 19 reminds me of a DNA map...

      ReplyDelete
    34. I quickly glanced over #1 and didn't pay much attention to it then I realized that I've definitely seen that before.

      I pretty much jizzed when I realized what it was based off of, because it's probably my favorite painting ever.

      ReplyDelete
    35. 1st row: mane six + Celestia, Luna and Spike
      2nd row: Big Mac, Granny Smith, Gilda, Zecora, CMC, Trixie, Cherilee
      3rd row: Mayor, Mr and Mrs Cake, Snips and Snails, Braeburn, Hoity Toity, Photo Finish, Sapphire Shores
      4th row: Wonderbolts, Derpy, Dr Whooves, Lyra and Bon Bon, that tennis pony, and Vinyl Scratch.

      I am way too good at this. To think we can recognize ponies just by a couple of coloured stripes.

      ReplyDelete
    36. 19 is just pure win!
      I really like how he got down Zacora and Celestia

      ReplyDelete
    37. Now I got an image of the original Caspar David Friedrich and checking it next to #1.

      Whoever did it, you have all my respect.

      ReplyDelete
    38. The fact that I was able to recognize all the ponies in #19 without looking at the comments scares me.

      ReplyDelete
    39. These are all so very wonderful.

      And I love the minimalist one =D

      ReplyDelete
    40. Source for #10
      http://bamboodog.deviantart.com/art/My-Little-Sleepy-Heads-208370294
      RD is a fan.

      ReplyDelete
    41. 19 seems to be organized by height/age too, as Celestia is the tallest and the CMC are the shortest. So why is Applejack taller than the rest of the mane 6?

      ReplyDelete
    42. #2 is simply brilliant! Absolutely incredible!

      ReplyDelete
    43. Because of the hat.

      ReplyDelete
    44. Love the detail on #3, then again I love everything with AJ in it.

      ReplyDelete
    45. #8

      Greatest Party Ever.

      ReplyDelete
    46. Good lord, is that a fire giant from the first series?

      >> #7 Is that the continuation to that picture where Twilight is standing over the bloodied, bruised up body of Celestia?


      Not exactly a continuation but mostly re-imagination. Happy, no-violence version, that fits MLP more.

      ReplyDelete
    48. Call me a nerd but #19 made me LOL.

      For those of you who are confused, 19 is the the characters on spectroscopy form.

      ReplyDelete
    49. I'm not usually one for the humanized ponies, but #12 is incredibly well done.

      ReplyDelete
    50. #7 Twilight was so upset after she failed the "unscrew and empty a bottle of Heinz-legs Ketchup onto a row of hotdogs" spell. Thankfully Celestia was there to comfort her.

      Is it odd that I knew all of the ponies in #19? I went herpa derpa when I saw that...

      ReplyDelete
    52. I can name all ponies in 19 too, I was kinda aroused by it as well.
      Derp

      ReplyDelete
    53. Number 2 is amazing. Absolute quality.

      ReplyDelete
    54. 3. More Applejack! Yay!

    56. Because I'm a harlot for guessing games, my guesses on #19:

      Twilight, AJ, Fluttershy, Dash, Pinkie, Rarity, Celestia, Luna, Spike
      Big Mac, Granny Smith, Gilda, Zecora, Scootaloo, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, The Great and Powerful Trixie, Cheerilee

      Random Wonderbolt, Soaren, Spitfire, Derpy, Dr. Whooves, Lyra, Bon-Bon, Whatever-the-hell-the-fandom-has-dubbed-the-tennis-pony-from-Call-of-the-Cutie, Colgate(?)

      Celestia dammit, I have too much free time on my hands.


      On a unrelated note, Canterlot at night may well be one of the greatest pieces of fanart ever.

      ReplyDelete
    57. The last one in 19 is definitely Vinyl Scratch/DJ-P0N3.

      ReplyDelete
    58. Ohhh my Gosh #10 and 11. aaaaaahhh!

    59. 19 reminds me of Vzones.

      Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog!

      I know people already recognized it but I am nerding out so much right now that that was made!

      ReplyDelete
    62. The fact that I could name every pony represented in #19 from memory simply by color recognition makes me think maybe I need to take a looooong break from ponies... >.>

      ReplyDelete
    63. I love that opening headline pic of Rarity
      She looks soo bold in that picture, would like to know if there was some inspiration for it. I know she isnt a happy pony there . . . Its one of those pics that i wish were in a widescreen format . . . . just would be such an epic background image.

      pic 1 isnt loading, its blank for me, even after a refresh with a cookie cleaning.

      pic 2 is wonderfully done, the glow on canterlot is rather pleasing, perfect example of an awesome background image pic.

      pic 3 Our fav stetson wearin, hardest workinin, apple buckin, big sis doin what she does best. Keeping them mghty tasty apples from spoiling so everypony can enjoy them. Its another one of those pics i cant tell ( like headlined rartiy ) wether its painted by hand or digitally, either way its still just a treat to look at, i commend this pony/brony for such talent.

      pic 4 I can see this being an episode . . . . lol Im waiting for twi to team with whooves for a sciency-type episode. lol

      pic 5 WHY, RAINBOW DASH? . . . you changed yer mane style . . . cooler yes, is it you? no. Soo much prettier with it down. LOL

      pic 6 If i was walking into a room with anypony and seen that . . . well i would definately bite my lip and SCOOTALOO . . . . ahahahah clever pony is clever . .. .

      pic 7 PLS PLS PLS . . . .we need backstory on this O.O Its just soo touching . . . Is cely's horn BROKEN?!?!?!

      pic 8 anything . . . i mean anything is 20% cuter with our fav mare derpy in it!! MUFFINS GET!!!

      pic 9 PINKAMENA and FLUTTER-RAGE, i could soo see some extreme things happening here. That face Pinkamena is making used to make me laugh . . . . but now it sorta scares me. Intellectually im depressed to know our cupcake bakin, party throwing, hiccup-snorting, giggle factory has some issues she needs to come to terms with. While i can see an epic story of unkown demeanor coming from this . . . . I dont know if i could read it >.< Im saddened to know she is this way. Flutter-rage . . . well you cant be butterflies and squeaks all the time. LMAO

      pic 10 i ABSOLUTELY ADORE THIS PICTURE. Its utter and scary cuteness makes my mind race . . . . lol and it sorta looks like our little Apple Bloom there is ready to do a spind-dash . . . . Rainbow Dash is on the floor laughing, and Fluttershy is sleeping ever soo soundly despite RD's voistrous behavior, maybe Rainbow is laughing at Apple Blooms impersonation of sonic, DOING a spindash. I just dont know what else to say about this pic.

      pic 11 HMMMM Rarity has flavor!!! This DAWWWWW pic is just too much after seeing pic 10 . . .it made me laugh for sure.

      pic 12 Stylized . . . not my thing but bravo for catching each personality so visually. n.n

      pic 13 . . . . hmmm 13 . . . . im not superstitious or nothin . . . but 13 + troubled Rarity . . . its kinda making me wonder, i hate seeing any of the ponies sad/troubled. So other than a perfect visual representation of her poor self stressing during the dress making incident i cant say much of or look at a pic of Rarity like that.

      pic 14 WHOO Derpy, LOL. Looks as she is coming home from a long days work, seeing the smiling faces of the friendly ponyfolk of ponyville would have me smiling gleefully at the end a my day as a mailpony too. Nicely done on the shadowing and coloring . . . the texture really makes the pic unique!!

      pic 15 Hoping thats traditional media . . . its always a joy to see a picture of this caliber posted, its fun to see unique stylized lines and personification of the portrayed character thru the artists work. Hope to see more of Scratch in the show n.n

      ReplyDelete
    64. pic 16 Pinky Pie as an alicorn . . . . *nods* yeah i can see this! THat face is just too gleeful. If i had a friend who was like that all the time . . . i sure as sugar wouldnt turn them away. Tho it makes me wonder why Cely is sooo big compared to everypony else . . . . even luna who is the same blood is the same size as the ponyvillians.

      pic 17 streeeeaatch little one. The sun has risen on a brand new day, its time for you to go and play! Wow its sorta fun to try and talk like Zecora sometimes . . . Its hard to not be smiling when you see a foal face like that :D

      pic 18 mom . . . . . :'( i miss you both. . . . This is touching . . .ever so . . . . as much so that this young stallion's a little misty eyed.

      pic 19 I get it . . . . but i dont know how to react.

      pic 20 DASHIE!!! LOOKIN GOOD!! ( stickly in a complimentary way, im not a perv pony. O\../O They all looked exception well in the Gala gowns. I love the forelock (crown) rarity set up for Rainbow, it was in perfect taste aswell as an excellent compliment to an already stunningly colorful mare.

      pic 21 AHH soo BOLD, determained, confident and rather intimidating. The art style here is very complimentary of the mood. This is one of my fav things about everypony in the mane cast so far. When their morals are confronted ( themselves, friends and others ) They turn into these extremely adorable demolishers of the bad. I know i met anypony like this id definately steer clear. If friendship is magic, its also the power to fuel limitless anger.

      pic 22 I dont know whats going on in this pic, but GO TWILIGHT SPARKLE!! SHow that golem(?) that friendship is much stronger than MIGHT!! I really like the rough sketchy lines used here, it shows the anguish the mob is putting up with. *whinnies cheers for twilight sparkle*

      pic 23 Ahhhh Trixie . . .yer close to the bottomg of my list . . . right there with gilda, no one likes a show-offy, snooty head pony. But you are rather friendly looking when you want to be . . . Hopefully the others can see your redeeming qualities eventually. I just hope you let others see them for once. Tho im not a fan of snooty ol' trixie. I really would have liked to see her redeem herself to the ponyvillians. I want to like trixie but i just cant. Even with a superbly crafted pic of her like this. She is rather fetching in her own way.


      SORRY for the wall of text, i feel bad some of the artists pics are never commented on whenever i see these drafriend collectives( im guilty of not commenting my self. ) but i feel the artists put out soo much effort to show us little different sides of our ( idols dare i say LOL ) That they should all be recognized. I draw, not very well mind you, but even one comment on a pic i have done makes me feel much happier and willing to draw more.

    75. For the ones who asked, in image 10 Applebloom is making the form of an apple (with a bite)and rainbow dash is making a helix

      ReplyDelete
    76. I think if you look at the file description of #7 you can start to understand what the artist (presumably)was thinking. After all these stories about Twilight's power taking her over and overpowering Celestia there had to be a moment where it all came to a head, either destroying Twilight, or destroying the rest of Equestria.

      Or...there could've been a a third possible outcome: at the last moment, using all of her power, Celestia was able to stop Twilight's rampage, and give the pony a greater degree of control over her own magical powers. Finally, exhausted and wounded, both collapse on the ground, Celestia maternally protecting her protege.
