Twilight Doesn't Quite Get It Edition. Also, I love pointless capitalization. And pointed capitalization. Oh Celestia I'm so tired. That actually sounded funny to me. Ahahehe... eh. Today also doubles as wishful thinking night because it's the middle of June and I am tremendously hot and haven't gone swimming in... gosh, how long has it been? Years, I think. But these 167 splishy splashy little ponies are making me feel very cool and relaxed. Cool enough to celebrate our total rising all the way to 4,218 in total! *party favors!*
Well, before I pass out let's get this part out of the way. Submission guidelines are here. If there's something else I can help you with, talk to me at [email protected]. Rain or shine, your Blog Princess is always there to help!
The Theme of the Day
Draw a pony building something. This night is dedicated to productivity. But what are these ponies building? Iono. Tables, houses, computer programs, giant robots, relationships, statues in my own glorious image,
Earlier this week I found myself talking to Sethisto and asking if he'd be willing to take over the duties of this for a night or two so I could catch up on sleep. You'll notice that hasn't happened. He agreed, of course, but every time I go to tell him that this next night is the one, I think about all of you. I mean, granted I did miss that one night when a freak storm knocked out the electricity to my town, but there are a surprising number of you who have never ever failed to submit a drawing to me every single night. And a whole bunch more beyond that who have been doing everything in your power to get in a drawing every night you can. And with all of that hard work and dedication directed at me, I'm supposed to take a break? Because I'm tired? Sorry, friends. I'll make it. I can do this. I will do this...

100 kommentaari:
First
VastaKustuta154 is perfectly representative on my feelings.
lol @ 20.
VastaKustutaYou could always leave posting it until a different time? What was it that made you pick 12 am pst anyway?
VastaKustuta163 here. Today was a bit of a bust. I messed around with ink painting, but I've never really done it before so it didn't turn out that great.
VastaKustutaSO
VastaKustutamuch
AWESOME! SQUEEE!
How do y'all make such wonderful pictures??
#51 is amazing!
VastaKustuta96 here
VastaKustuta93 - Pick it up and put it in your pocket!
153 - Very nifty looking
Everything today is awesome! You're awesome. I'm awesome, the whole world is awesome! Why? Because swimming ponies are awesome!
VastaKustuta#55 today.
VastaKustutaI almost kind of regret not giving her an oxygen tank. But, she's DERPY. She doesn't NEED oxygen to operate underwater. :D
I also can't help but laugh at a minor error in the fact the package she's holding says "Ponyville Lake" when she's clearly out in the OCEAN. ...Ah well. x3
Still, not my best work, but definitely better than yesterday's. I'm a little surprised I wasn't the only one who though of Derpy delivering across the ocean, though, though I suppose I shouldn't have been.
76 reporting in.
VastaKustutaFavorites today are: 11, 47, 51, 66, 67 (Chip Skylark! That takes me back), and 137 made me lol.
#75 reporting in, and WOW, there are a lot of great entries today! I really liked all the "Fluttershy is bad at swimming entries" - they were all D'awwww-worthy :)
VastaKustutaAs always, excellent work, everypony!
#118 here.
VastaKustutaI think his/her name is "White Label" like the nondescript "BEER" or "COLA" they've used on MythBusters.
As far as "why?", That's what I do/get when I get complimented on the simple-ish ASCII in my (completely unrelated & finished, but un-posted) fanfic...
And, thank you, Phoe, for letting everypony know.
#132 here my friends(as pointed out by dear old Phoe is pretty much the same as #1, which I wasn't expecting). Anyway, as always great artwork, and I hope the great work continues! Great job everypony.
VastaKustuta@Phoe
VastaKustutaOh yes we did...
Hm...
Maybe I could get Display to draw me putting my rifle together...
That would count, right?
#59 here. Everything I know about surfing I learned from the Beach Boys, so, oh well. Especially liked: 23, 47, 51, 58, 64, 89, 94, 99, 135, 137, 149! This theme gave some scope for some really cool visuals.
VastaKustutaThink I speak for everyone when I say thanks for sticking with us, Phoe!
VastaKustuta105 had me giggling like a loon.
VastaKustuta165 owes me a new monitor for the coffee I spat over it.
147 ...*checks the reflection* GASP!
123 awww!
#156
VastaKustutaShoo-Be-Doo~
@Rains:
VastaKustutaPiece by piece, putting it together,
Rainy's gun, careful not to pull the trigger,
Bit by bit, making sure the barrel fits nicely,
It's the perfect guage, with all the clips,
Always have to keep in mind my pacing,
Making sure the stock's correctly facing,
I'm assembling Rainyyyyy's gun!
#131 - Near, far, wherever you are; I believe that my heart does go on... ;-;
VastaKustuta@Display Name
VastaKustutaThe hell...
Dude, you win the internets.
*Brohoof*
#146 today. Phoe water skiing with Rocket Cereal pulling her along. ...I'm not sure what else to say about it. o_o
VastaKustutaWanted to spend more time on it, but had a busy day again, something that unfortunately seems to be a theme as of late.
+favs include #6, #20, #29, #36, #47, #54, #66, #89, #165.
#5: This is extra adorable for some reason.
#105: This makes me giggle!
#1 + #132: And this is just perfect.
@RaspleZS: That's good, I like it. =P
153 today. I kinda blanked for the whole day, til I came up with a water orb. It's a neat illusion, because you can't even see Twilight in the smaller thumbnails. It's surprising how awesome the smudge tool can make stuff look.
VastaKustutaToday is awesome, as always. For some reason, I really enjoyed the seapony drawings. Why are these things suddenly so cute?! It makes no sense! Also, the "bellyflop" and "backstroke" comics were hilarious.
Rainbow Dash's weakness is water...I can't help by think of Sonic again. Why not just play the "drowning music" as you scroll through today's entries?
sure is shoop-bee-doo in here
VastaKustuta#47 is sooo adorkable. She would totally do that. That's why we love Twilight.
VastaKustuta#47 and #165 are my favorites.
VastaKustuta#10 here.
VastaKustutaA lot of awesomeness today. Got me giggling repeatedly. Too bad I'm going to miss the next couple of days, but that's rock festivals fer' ya'all. *sigh*
Damn it. I am going to have a weekend of fun, and I'm feeling bad for missing two days' training grounds because of it. Maybe I indeed am a bit ponyaddicted :DD
73 is the cutest Celestia ever. All these entries were great!
VastaKustutaI expected more Sea Ponies than Hippocampus/Mermaid Ponies, but it seems the other way around.
VastaKustutaThe odd ones are the one that attributes the "Shoop-ee-doo" to Hippocampi, and the one with Applejack that seems to be trying to splice the two races into one...
By the way: 165, more like articles of clothing.
VastaKustutaGreat job every pony! So much good art out there! I'm sorry to say but this was my last entry(52) till the 27th. I'm going to be missing a lot of art for this event. Keep up the great work Bronies! I will check back to see all your work when I get back on the 26 of this month. Stay strong! :3
VastaKustuta#24 this time. I'm really glad I happened to come up with a reference Phoe approves of - is this the best day ever? Probably.
VastaKustutaAll in all, I have to say that this theme has brought us a lot of very cute and amazing pictures.
#10: I really like that style. It makes them look even more huggable than they already are.
#36: I've heard so many great stories about that game! I can only assume I'd have spent all my time playing it, too; sadly, I grew up in the wrong country.
#47: Spot-on. It's time to do this Twilight Sparkle style.
#67: I love that reference. It has got to be my favorite cartoon, right after Friendship is Magic and Invader Zim.
#94: Is that a Castaway reference? I've never seen that movie... maybe I should. Anyway, it's a great picture!
#105: Classic Lyra sillyness. There can never be enough of that.
#111: I'm hooked. I really want to know where this Longshy stuff is going to go in the end; it's one of the many things I look forward to every day when it comes to this whole event.
#149: That one looks really wonderful. Nice use of light and shadow and all that... not that I'd know much about this, but it certainly turned out great.
I already know what I'm going to draw for today, but I think it's going to be rather difficult for me to pull off... Well, I hope I won't give up halfway through. That'd be a shame. Anyway, thanks to all of you for the great pictures, and thanks again to Phoe for being patient and diligent enough to keep all of this going.
44 and 68, I lol'd, those two are hilarious.
VastaKustuta165, the little blurb at the bottom, "Read it for the articles" with a picture like that with it.... I dunno....
not ONE nirvana reference?
VastaKustuta154 here. I feel terrible, I forgot AJ's freckles. orz Should be fixed now, hopefuully.
VastaKustutaAlso, have a silly followup sketch, that wasn't done when I was submitting earlier. Just for fun.
http://jenasu.deviantart.com/art/Twilight-what-have-you-done-213529294
Lots of great work today, as always. I'd list favourites, but am too sleepy. However, I will say that the backstroke comic just about killed me. ♥
@Anonymous : I'd originally had them drawn as traditional Seaponies, in the initial sketch. But the fins just would stop feeling "off" to me, so I opted for artistic license. I know it's odd, but for now I'm still just going to refer to them as Sea Ponies.
I love this fandom. Each and everypony is awesome.
VastaKustuta#48 checking in. Didn't have as much time as I would have liked to draw yesterday so it turned out a little rushed, but the idea struck me as cute being a big Disney fan to at least try.
VastaKustutaAnyway, some of my favorite this time around were #11, 20, 44, 47, 66, 141, and 154. Keep up the good work everypony!
Number 132? Uncle Leo? I'm number 1. We are now officially soul bros.
VastaKustuta#9 here. #47 did it for me. Just SO Twilight!
VastaKustutaSo many amazing entries here :D
VastaKustutaGonna be a sad day when the NATG ends.
Oh well, I have something special planned for todays installment.
Provided I get it done in time.
The pictures today are great as always!
VastaKustutaMy internet crashed yesterday, so i couldn't send in my own picture: http://s4.postimage.org/c2qfamkqt/Seaponies.jpg :(
#137 and 167 today.
VastaKustutaIt was tough trying to figure out how Pinkie's FOREVER! face would look like at that angle. That and trying to make her look a little more like the shark ended up with her as a very strange shape. I wonder if it would have been better to simply keep her in her normal FOREVER! pose, but then it would have looked less like the Jaws poster. Not sure which way is better. #167 was an attempt to draw quicker, because recent days have seemed like I've been getting slower and slower.
#94 was funny, and Badzerg's pictures get more intriguing every day. The perspective and everything in #149 reminds me of pictures I've seen of elephants swimming. Interesting effect.
#68 reporting in
VastaKustutaYeah. I don't know what it is about half dressed ponies either.
Second time drawing Dashi is flight. I would have done the back of her mane facing the camera (like it does) but then it would have covered most of her face both from the shot AND the reflection.
I kinda failed at the angle of the reflection though.. HA! Well There's always tomorrow
My participation is number 12. =]
VastaKustutaMy today's fav are 11, 38, 51, 89, 96, 123, 125 and 141.
I have so much ideas for today's subject *__*
@Adrian Brony
VastaKustutaYeah, kinda disappointing. I didn't have time to make one.
Building?
*opens Minecraft*
27 reporting in ^_^ glad you liked it phoe. My favourite is 67 though, now I've got a craving to watch fairly odd parents out of nostalgia.
VastaKustuta#85 here.
VastaKustutaI think my ponies are looking a bit better now, and I'm certainly doing better on my wings.
So many great entries as usual that naming them all would be a real task; but I will say this much, I've noticed and started to eagerly look forward to each of Ego's entries.
I did especially love the Monkey Island one as well, that one was great.
#37 and 62 today, reporting in!
VastaKustutaJust wanted to throw out a couple of my favorites here:
#36 - Oh my gosh, the memories!
#40 - Love the pose!
#47 - My absolute favorite, clueless Twilight is the best Twilight!
#51 - Ego you continue to be amazing.
#59 - Is that Crayon? Looks awesome.
#76 - Splashy splashy!
#147 - Looks great, love the ripple effect on the water
Ok, going to feel like an idiot for asking, but what's the Shoo-Be-Doo stuff referencing? I think I missed something...
VastaKustuta@Anonymous
VastaKustutaIf you haven't seen the horror that is Shoo-Be-Doo go watch this...
http://youtu.be/P4TedkQP_hM
@Emerald Dust
VastaKustutaI don't know, but when I looked through at 94 a second time, i noticed which ponies were doing what activity.
and i laughed out loud for two minutes.
#66 here
VastaKustutaGotta say, I'm loving 89, 125, 149 and 154
13-probably my favorite depiction of the Sea ponies, as that was my same expression when I saw the video of it. o_O
VastaKustuta36-"something something dysentery!" I snickered!
45- love the Pinkie shark. And Gummy <3 And Twilight's expression!
Thought of doing the sea pony thing on mine (125) but I remembered how Twilight's wing spell gave butterfly wings, not pegasus wings and I wanted to draw more of a hippocampus anyway! I realize now that I forgot to add scales >.<
@fetchbeer
VastaKustutaOhgodswhy
Hi, it's 145.
VastaKustuta5. Nice swimming pose
6. Haha, that dead goldfish face <_>
12. Makes horse-shaped ponies cute
15. Someone else liked that story :)
29. That's unsettling. I like it.
38. I like the underwater glow
46. That's not a lake, Pinkie
51. Graceful curves
63. Not until I perfect my book waterproofing spell.
64. As usual, Squidbombed makes strangely dynamic pieces. Pinkie's hair seems to undulate.
68. Pony fanservice: wearing clothes
93. Guybrush! Ladychaparral?
98. Challenging angle, you didn't do too bad with it
112 how...?
125 I wonder if seaponies will look more like mermaids
137 It's not safe to go in the water... FOREVERRR
141 Aww
149 Ooooh, glowy.
154 I like this adaptation of seaponies.
73, 94, 105, 167 gave me a laugh. I kept an eye out for pictures with good floaty hair, like 29 51 121 125 154.
@Anonymous
VastaKustutaOohhh! Right, I just noticed I'm an idiot. Well, I'm feeling really stupid now, especially since that episode is definitely one of my favorites. I need to pay more attention.
Hundreds of pictures with a swimming theme, and not a single Steven Magnet one?
VastaKustutaEQUESTRIA DAILY, I AM DISAPPOINT.
@Phoe
VastaKustutaOh, our dearest Great and Powerful Pony Princess Phoe! Perhaps this unworthy subject has the balm to sooth you.
*Fires up his copy of "Heavy Metal Lyre - The Qmax Remix" to lull our despot into wakefulness*

VastaKustutaThis. We need more of this.
PONY GEAR SOLID: TACTICAL ESPONIAGE ACTION.

@Anonymous
VastaKustutaMWA HA HA HA!!!
NOW YOU WILL BE HUMMING THAT TUNE...
FOREVER!!!
shoo be doo...
Oh no! Whats going on?
shoo shoo be doo...
NO! I shouldn't have listened to it when I posted that link!
just call upon the sea ponies...
NOOO! Oh what a foal I've been! Why did I try to spread this!
I adore #6 and the mystery behind it makes it that much more adorable. #20 is SOOOOO cute. #27 is an awesome idea. #67 is great, I always love the crossover ideas you guys think of. #69 is fantastic even if it's not a drawing, as long as you don't let people get away with things like that multiple days in a row! #108 is probably a better example of the idea I was trying to convey, and it's awesome.
VastaKustutaWheeeeew yeah. I'd be here all day, again, to point out every single pic that I loved out of these. It gets harder every day. You guys really DO improve every single day, and on the whole the set of pictures has gone from a lot of obvious newbies with a few real artists sneaking in to a whole bunch of real artists, or people very quickly approaching that level. I can't reiterate enough how much I love being a part of this.
Oh, I had a big paragraph there about how much I love seaponies, but it got eaten away somehow? Either way, I love seaponies. Draw more seaponies. I need to draw seaponies. Seaponies seaponies seaponies. Best word ever.
VastaKustuta@Thattagen Noooo! Not that music! D:
VastaKustutaArgh I hate that music so much, just because it usually meant you were totally screwed. >__<
@Emerald Dust @Anonymous Yaay making lots of comments! :D I may make a bunch... later.
@Lucky Charm I WILL COMMENT ON YOURS!
Sorry, sea ponies, but Faust already said there aren't any of you in season 2. Maybe in season three... notsureifwant.jpg
133 reporting in
VastaKustutaAs I said to Phoe last night, I can't be sure, but I think someone spiked my drink before I started drawing last night.
........Pinke Pie has the power to transform into a submarine, who knew?
@Phoe lol I'm sorry Phoe but your reaction to my picture is priceless and about what I expected XD
VastaKustutaHah, this theme worked out really well. I love how many waterwing Fluttershy's there are.
VastaKustutaVery nice entries all around, not that I'm surprised :)
148 here, by the way. Think mine came out pretty well considering i didnt have time to colour it.
Pony building something? Now that's a theme I can work with.
#69 here. I drew something, but it really didn't turn out right. Then, I turned around and saw my neighbor's pool. IDEA~
VastaKustuta91 here... I can't help but feel I'm lagging far behind the class in terms of progress. I hope I don't flunk out :(
VastaKustutaINB4 hundreds of pony / Minecraft crossovers.
VastaKustuta@Chromadancer: Not any farther behind than I am. =P
VastaKustutaDon't worry about it, half the point of this is to keep chugging out art so you spend more time gaining experience as opposed to making one or two pics, looking at someone else's work, ":[ i suck," then quitting.
Probably would've quit myself had I started drawing on my own, but then I never would've discovered how much I actually enjoy doing this.
@Chromadancer It's okay, we grade on completion. :D
VastaKustutaJust keep drawing!
@Xiagu
VastaKustutaGlad to hear it! 'Cause I just realized I've been drawing the characters with great big donkey ears this whole time! Oh, well, too late to change it now... :)

@Invidlord
VastaKustuta#59 was crayola colored pencils, which worked much better than I expected. I've got watercolor pencils coming in the mail, hopefully they're even more fun!
#140 & 166 today.
VastaKustutaOkay, I hate the dolphin design too, but I was trying to make her similar to the cutie mark that Seafoam sports in the show, and Phoe knows what you can do with these ponies' damn huge eyes! (Of course that is why we are here) I will work on my delphinia design in case she swims out again. However, I will stand for my Seafoam and Twilight! *soft snort and stomp*
No sbumission today as i fixed up some old pics i submitted and Phoe had so graciously resubmitted the new pics for me in the old training grounds n.n I had a stressful few days the last few days . . . plus im going to be more careful at what i submit from now on. ANYWHO submission stuffs time.
VastaKustuta#3 I seen this pic coming a mile away when i read about ponies swimming yesterday LMAO.
#4 it is really cute, specially Twi . . . but i hope we dont see the sea ponies in season two O.O
#6 We can see the Pinkie Puffer has gotten excited at the prospect of being fed. THis reaction normally happens at any prospect the pinkie puffer may experience. THats why they are soo hard to keep on the shelves.
#7 With a mane and tail like that. Rainbow could have whatever the hay she wants if you think about it.
#8 Great now i have to order new eyeballs . . . stoopid overly-adorable explosion clause . . . why would that even . . . *sigh*
#10 Huh . . . if only Rarity knew the visual appeal she had with her mane and tail all soaking wet...
#12 i really love the style of linework being implied here. i would love to have enough time to do backgrounds and coloring . . . or an app that would let me do so.
#14 Solar winds are reflective . . . true story! this is too cute.
#19 oooohggg Rainbow is gonna get it if pinkie pie finds out about this.
#20 DEM EYES, i couldnt ever argue with them *sigh* these ponies would walk all over me with that <,_,>
#25 Maybe she should get a job at coney island.
#27 It would be awesome to see anything vacation worth in season two O.O i love ponyville and all, but a change of scenery would be great.
#31 leave it to scootaloo to go and make use of her wings in the most unpegasi way O.O KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK SCOOTS!!
#36 Ever played any of the remakes, they time wasting was still there . . . but the flair was gone. Maybe a pony version would be fun if it was still like the old days version.
#38 Yes... Yup... this is wonderful... I cant put my hoof on it . . . i really like this pic O.O
#40 i never could get the hang or snorkling myself >.> I really like the style of the environment in this.
#44 Yes i quite agree. The real only proper swimform for muffin swimming is muzzle first, remaining completely submerged ...
#45 *Bellie-flops on pinkie and gummie* "RUN TWI!"
#47 You just dont get any cuter do you, Twilight!
#48 Yep they did, better stuffs all around. Vetter voicework and animatronics. Some of the old props actually made it on ebay Ironically enough.
#50 I still dont get the ponies in swimsuits thing . . . but D'AAAAWW
#51 I cant put into words how beautiful this looks
#58 this came close to eyesplosion... LOL
#59 Y'know, i can see Applebloom surfing . . . and being quite good at it.
#63 NOPE, still cute . . . thats fine im not much of a swimmer anyway...
#64 If that was comign at me underwater, i think i would prolly end up drowning from trying to laugh underwater.
#65 NOOOOO! THE STETSON!
#68 Im not sure what they are doing . . . and why Pinkie is enjoying it. But . . . knowing pinkie, well its got to be normal for her.
#73 THis is well done, but NO! LMAO its really cute!
#75 HAH, Just like flying through the air, my wings are just as effect at menouvering underwater!
#79 Twi's teleport ability would be useful about now :'(

VastaKustuta#84 SEE RAINBOW, I told you diving into the water after coming out of a rainboom wouldnt work. The air surrounding you would actually push the water out of the way... No i have to levitate you to the hospital... jeesh i dont live in a library and read books all day for nothing.
VastaKustuta#85 Derpy truely is the Jedi of all swimmers.
#89 I really hope they bring detailed anylitics back of the ruins... The amount of research I would need to do could take weeks. It would be soo worth it though. Yes . . . Rarity really need to let her mane and tail hang straight for once.
#90 Yes she is, Tis soooo adorable!! But i still adore Berry and Ruby more, Im sorry Derpy, *huggles*
#91 HAH, never gets old!!
#93 I sat at that scene in the game to see if there was a mechanic to see if he would drown...
#94 LOL
#96 If i was a kid learning to swim . . .i would want floaties just like those!
#99 Fluttershy, dont be nervous. All of yer friends will be there to help you.
#103 sadface.jpg I cant decide wether of not to make a silly or concerning comment on this one. so ill just smile :)
#105 I dont know what happened . . . But it is hilarious, as long as Lyra isnt drowning...
#107 Understandhing this pic would ruin it for me O.O so ill just sit back and take in the pure giddy glee it radiates.
#111 You know, Honestly, yer pics used to creep the hay outta me. . . bu the more i see them, the more unique i feel they are. The art style is unmistakeable, and the lines have a very special personality. Plus its adorable LOL I hope my words didnt bother you. I just really never noticed how nice they are until now. Now that i look back at the others more carefully. :)
#112 Gotta love a killer bellie-flop. Even if its not soo good for the flopper...
#113 Complaining changes nopony. It just makes them want to do it even more. GO LYRA!! *head pops out of the water, looking at bon bon and blows rasperries, slowly sinking into the water again.*
#115 LOL it did.
#116 APPLEBLOOM in da pool. Now its a party . . . sorry i always wanted to say that. CMC swimmers are GO!!
#120 If Celly is being the Troll . . . do you complain to her mom . . . O.o how does that work?
#123 AHAHAAHA I love the face.
#129 But Dashie . . . air is considered a liquid. SO its not different to swim if you put yer mind to it. Im confident in yer abilitites!
#135 Well she is the sister of Rarity after all. Beautfiul underwater manes must run in the family.
#140 Thats kinda cool!
#142 YEah . . . uhm thats not a good idea in a public pool x.x
#144 COlor me stupid or just lack of sleep (6 total hours the last two days) But i dont even know whats going on here. O.O looks interesting tho.
#149 WOW, just wow!
#154 AJ just close yer eyes, maybe they will dissapear, and youll be back at school in her skibbies.
#159 Thats going to haint me for a long time... im not going to be able to sit quietly alone... with that popping into my head conctantly.
#165 UHHHH uhm . . . I got nothing
#167 Sometimes this is what inquisitiveness gets you. Understanding some things... normally just not worth it.
If i didnt comment on one of yer pics, its not that i didnt like it or anything, i just didnt have a comment . . . LOL GREAT JOB EVERYPONY!!! These were just as fun as the filly and pony love days!!
#119 Here.I kind of expected to see alot of fillies in swimsuits, but I'm surprised there's so few of them.
VastaKustutaI didn't expect #38 to have the same idea I would have (Rarity pearl-diving).This is the first time I've drawn Rarity, and I feared doing her design because I didn't wan't nerf her beautiful-but-complex mane. With the swimming theme, I had the exucse to give her a swimcap.
So far I've drawn 5/6 mane cast, which leaves DUN DUN DUN...Rainbow Dash.
#51 NEVER ALLOWED TO PAINT!??!?!?!?!? WUT?!?!?! That looks frikking awesome!!!!
VastaKustuta@Doc Steedly Rock on. Mad props for commenting on so many pictures :D
VastaKustutaHey, at least she's not drinking it. ^^
#34 and #36 here.
VastaKustutaI had #36 rattling around in my head and had to get it out on paper, but I got done with it way too quickly and didn't really feel satisfied with it so I did #34 to follow up.
On an unrelated note, fording rivers was almost always my cause of death (Screw paying money! Or caulking!), followed closely by accidental misfire while hunting (Screw buying food!). Dysentery was a distant third. (Screw not having dysentery!)
I am highly disappoint that I didn't discover this whole "drawing" thing until day 19 because I wasn't really a brony at all until roughly day 16. Confound these ponies, they drive me to draw, etc.
#5: A wild Horsea has appeared!
#6: lolwat
#8: ahem: http://www.assateagueisland.com/ponyswim/ponyswim.htm
#11: Oh gods, memory of spending hours trawling all around the Great Sea. Good stuff.
#17+25+32+37+45+53+61+89+101+161: THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE SNORKELPINKIE
#20: yes
#23: hell yes
#27 and then #29 immediately thereafter made me lol hard
#45 (again): I love this
#47: I hope Swimming for Eggheads is cited in that manual
#51: this is really really awesome. You should sell prints.
#55+57+85: I would think Derpy would do fantastic underwater, what with the bubbles mark.
#59 surfboard cutie mark pending
#66: the following statement is true: the preceding statement was false.
#67 best ship of all time
#79 d'awwww
#86: OH GOD, RUN FLUTTERSHY DOLPHINS ARE SERIOUS BAD NEWS
#89 again: this should be a season 2 episode
#105: where doing this man. where making this hapen.
#133: THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE SNORKLEPINKIESUbma..rine..... nevermind. Are the Bridles in there? (approximation of horse pun for Beatles)
#137 do want, make movie nao
#141 FLUTTERSHY I KEEP TELLING YOU THAT DOLPHINS ARE EVIL WHY WON'T YOU LISTEN TO ME
#142 I would make this into a fountain if I could
#151 this pony is now in my personal canon
@Argembarger Wooo, great to see other ponies putting out obscene numbers of comments too!
VastaKustutaNow that you mention it, that would make an awesome fountain. Pinkie Pie ftw.
@ your 86 and 141 comments: haha, that was my reaction too! Dolphins (despite being pretty cute) get up to some creepy crap.
@Xiagu RE:142) Your water in this is not bad at all. At least it is recognizable as water. I used the clouds that are so beautifully stylized in FiM for inspiration for the water I've been drawing the last two days, but I tried to make it more solid than the clouds and with a different curling so it would hopefully look like cresting waves and when I added clouds to the picture they would have a different "feel". I could recommend that you draw your water with lighter weight lines to give a "wetter" feel. Also, "Google (Images) Is Your Friend" for drawing anything. Try looking up raindrop images or splashing water to get some ideas. Good ponies!
VastaKustuta@Virga Rainboom Did you intentionally comment at 1:42pm, or are you just awesome?
VastaKustutaThanks for the advice! I'm antsy of drawing anything with lighter lines, since they don't scan as well, but I'll give it a shot.
I do like your waves. The dolphins don't look so bad!
@Xiagu
VastaKustutaHeh i try, i thought this topic was gonna be fun to look at. I was right. WHile i dont comment on all pics i see i do like to comment on most of them. Sometimes the response i get back are rather fun to read to. Most artists love to get some sort of comment on their work. I know i do. But just having my stuff being posted here is awesome enough. It took me a long time to comment, but its worth it. Even if my art isnt the greatest, i would love to let peeps know how awesome theirs are n.n
@Doc Steedly
VastaKustuta#144 here. Yea, sorry about that. I've been trying to keep a running narration while incorporating the day's theme (I admit today was a bit of a stretch... but I do think it is totally Pinkie style to enter a melee by beaching a boat... in retrospect, said boat should also have balloons and other party stuff attached too) and aside from people probably not remembering what's going on from previous days (and it probably doesn't help taht the 2nd page I ever did jumped to the end of the fight), I admit my flow isn't all that great. I tried to cram too many panels onto one page. And on top of that, at least for me, I found teleporting stupidly hard to represent in a comic without blowing through extra panels. Plus I'm not particularly happy with having to do diagonal cuts. Anyway, bare minimum for anyone to know here is Twilight's evil twin is still wrecking havoc and the rest of the ponies are coming to canon Twilight's rescue.
I wish I could have done yesterday's natg, I had a really hot idea to put Twi in a bikini.... >///< But Imma try again today! I hope I'll find the time to, anyway! <3
VastaKustuta#6 Here. I am glad so many people like it.
VastaKustutaDoc wins at making up an explanation.
@Doc Steedly
VastaKustutaThis is because I fail at drawing water and perspective.
It' supposed to be Dashie poking at her reflection in the water bitching about the bikini being pointless.
/If you're young don't read this next part
Pinkie's staring at her plot ifyouknowwhatimean
@Kits
VastaKustutaAhh, Kits, that was a brave attempt, and not a bad sketch at all! I don't think I would try that. I thought that Dashie was wrastlin' with another pony on the ground and I certainly understood that Pinkie was watching in interest. It is a fun idea, of course. Keep plugging along. Dash!
I am skipping more than last time in the interest of this not taking forever.
VastaKustuta#4 clever!
#10 PUSH HER! DO IT DOITDOITDOITDOIT!
#11 And look adorable while doing it! Best :D face ever.
#12 Appledash? Appledash! :D Also, more realistic anatomy that doesn't make me want to go hide under a pillow, so props for that too!
#14 Is that a Rainbow Dash duckie in front of them? It's absolutely adorable. I want one. Twilight needs one for her Secret Tub Fun too. Speaking of which...
#15 SECRET TUB FUN! That a hilarious series. Swimming Fluttershy is awesome.
#16 *VWING!* Quick, go hide until the alert wears off!
#19 Nice onomatopoeia there. :D
#20 Phoe, how can you possibly resist her super-whining powers?
#22 dook. That's the sound I imagine poking it making.
#25 It's Pinkie Pie! She does what she wants. Physics can go shove it.
#26 She hunts them down to give them hugs. (...don't ask how she got the armor.)
#27 Me too! That seems like a secret that Rainbow Dash might actually have. Alternatively, Fluttershy.
#29 That mane is amazing.
#31 If Scootaloo got a treaded scooter, I bet she could hydroplane across water like a snowmobile. (Also, like a boss.)
#32-33 Do we get awesome backstory for this? :O
#34 The rubber duckie is a nice touch.
#36 I have never actually played this game! Never. But I still get the "something something dysentery" joke.
#37 Pinkie, that hair is going to give you away! ...also, no snorkel?
#38 Apparently it's a euphemism for ruby diving ^^
#40 She's looking at WATER! SO MUCH WATER. MORE WATER THAN- okay I'm done.
#42 Ponypaddling! :3
#44 I had a similar idea, except I was going to use Derpy. Then I thought about drawing all the muffins and decided ``eeeeNope.''
#45 See! What did I tell you! The hair is a dead giveaway! ...Actually her hair looks vaguely like a Portuguese man-o-war sail. D:
#46 I don't think you're going to need that snorkel for puddle diving, Fluttershy.
#47 Twilight won't let anything spoil her beach vacation! It's going to be done by the book. That way she knows she had real fun.
#48 After it worms its way into your head, really, how can you not sing it on every ride?
#51 You painted this? what. i jelly >_>
#53 Is she hiding from a cloud of angry bees? (inb4 NOT THE BEES)
#54 Phoe, can't you take a nap or something before midnight PST? Then you wouldn't have to be awake all the time.
#56 This is one big wave away from Scootakite. :3
#57 But you are, Derpy! You are!
#59 Still a blankflank - therefore this surfing isn't going to end well for her...
#63 She hasn't finished reading the Egghead's Guide to Swimming yet, you see.
#64 Torpedo tube 2, FIRE!
Total mind blank.
#74 Cutie Mark Crusaders Divers! Apple Bloom's setting herself up for a belly flop :S
#75 So awesome looking! :O
#76 Bonbon heard the song on the radio and wanted to sing along!
#84 Immediately before this, Rarity stuck her hoof in the pool and declared it "too cold."
#85 She must have a ton of tolerance for water rushing into her nose... because when I do that it sucks.
#86 Dolphins are actually not the nicest creatures. :S
#88 Captain Derpy scans the horizon for the dreaded Muffin Pirates.
VastaKustuta#91 BOOTS ON HOOVES, BIKINIS ON TOP
#94 Collect volleyballs! Play seashells! :D
#96 Scoots doesn't even need to learn a stroke, does she? She can just use her wings to propel herself. That's pretty cool actually.
#97 Aww. Sunset and everything.
#98 Cool perspective here.
#99 D'aaww, Fluttershy is afraid of swimming too? :c
#101 In the thumbnail it looked like Pinkie was blowing confetti out of her snorkel. And I thought "Yep, she would definitely do that." xD
#103 and 104 Phoe, >implying...
#105 This is great. Especially the fish watching too.
#106 And Fluttershy is collecting the seashells, I assume?
#108 Exactly! Scoots doesn't need to know how to swim.
#112 ...ouch. That looks like it hurt. xD
#119 Pokemans! Uh... Chinchou, Horsea, Gorebyss, Luvdisc, ...Relicanth? I HAVE FAILED AS A POKEMON MASTER D:
#120 Would be creepy if Luna didn't look so happy :D
#123 Eeee! That Lyra is adorable!
#126 I'm the goddamn Derpy. I can breath underwater.
#131 Are your amazing reference powers failing you, Phoe?
#132 I like the title. Surfin' the web indeed.
#133 AND THEN PINKIE WAS WAS A SUBMARINE. Very cool goggles too. Did I mention The Twilight October yet?
#135 Everypony's mane looks lovely underwater!
#137 FORREEEVVEERRRRR
#141 That dolphin looks like it's dropped the cute glamour and has revealed its true nature. ...almost a ``B**** I WILL F***IN END YOU'' expression there. Dolphins are evil :P
#145 This picture is great! Fluttershy cutting through the water majestically, like an eagle. Just like an eagle. What, did you think I was going to say something else? (Possibly more like a penguin, but eh.)
#147 LunaMac? But nopony can ever replace Abacus! D:
#149 Whoa. Stunning. :O
#150 Fluttershy is also adorable when she can swim. Duckies~~
#153 Whoa, cool. That's... that's pretty cool.
#157 ...it's Gummy wearing a shark fin? :3
#161 Pinkie is leaning on the 4th wall again. Staring at you.
#164 NARWHAL. That's a fun word! Narwhal. Narwhalnarwhalnarwhal. Anyway, Lyra looks pretty jelly right now.
@Kits: Pinkie just wants some pie, that's all.
VastaKustutaHonestly the reflection perspective isn't that bad at all, just the body is rotated toward the viewer a bit too much.
@Xiagu That is just what I was thinking of when I drew that. Well that and shoo bee doo shoo shoo bee doo.
VastaKustuta120 today. Like I told Phoe, the idea came before the explanation for this picture. I have no idea why Twilight is trapped in the royal snow globe.
VastaKustutaOnce I looked up what "scrying" was, I laughed heartily.
~Buddy Vox
@XiaguI guess, much like Rainbow Dash, I am just awesome! Awesome, but not very observant. I was going back over comments and saw that I commented at the same time as your entry number for today. Hopefully it is a lucky sign for you. Make the most of it and ... DRAW MORE PONIES!
VastaKustutaEnjoy.
@Kits
VastaKustutaAHAHAHA OK i get the pic much better now. LOL
I woulda just squiggly line the water . . . anywho, its SOOO much funnier now!!
@Philith
VastaKustutaWow, Really . . . AWESOME n.n
Im glad you liked it, i hope other got a kick out of it after reading my explanation too.
@Kuroi Tsubasa Tenshi
VastaKustutaYou needent be sorry, it was just a little hard for me to see at that REZ. Im using a 1080P monitor and it got too fuzzy when zoomed in.
I sorta like how its going tho. Ill be sure to keep an eye out for it now n.n
Partition, I love it, thank you! <=K
VastaKustuta
