• Nightly Roundup #122

    I labeled this as "Sparklydash" on my source list for drawfriend earlier, and spent a good 45 seconds stumped when I couldn't find the TwilightxDash image to go with it. 

    Have some news!

    See that pumpkin?  It's awesome. 

    I'm running a pumpkin event a bit closer to Halloween, so save your stuff for that!

    I also want to do a Halloween banner thing, since me and Cereal totally lack the time to make banners these days.   Let me know if you guys would be interested in something like that in comments!


    Rainbow Dash Invades Russia



    That city looks so clean aside from the graffiti. I need to go to Russia some time.

    Rainbow Dash Case Mod


    I'm actually building a computer soon. Maybe I should cut out some Trixie on the side? Or maybe I'll just toss a picture of her up there... That would be much easier.

    Have a gallery for more images of it!

    Fallout: New Vegas AppleVictor and Pinkie Man

    For those of you out there who haven't already completely filled Fallout to the brim with pony weapons and voiceovers, another mod has popped up that replaces the screen on Victor with Applejack. It's subtle, but that's what the nightly roundup is for! check out the demonstration of it here.

    Ebay / March Stuff
    Sea Pony Lyra
    Velvet Remedy
    Phone Cases
    Rainbow Dash Oil Painting
    Derpy Blindbag

    1. You forgot the QnA video, Seth.

      VastaKustuta
    2. That Dashie on the wall needs to be around 120% bigger!

      VastaKustuta
    3. I was the one that asked Jayson where ponies get their glue in the Q&A :v

      VastaKustuta
    4. Halloween stuff sounds like a good idea. Is it going to be a banner contest or just a new banner?
      Sure they're recolors but they're also the doll ver. of some blindbag characters.

      VastaKustuta
    5. That's one big chalk Rainbow Dash...

      I've got a feeling that somepony's going to make an awesome CMC Halloween banner, just feelin' it.

      VastaKustuta
    6. Has there actually been any post on EQ so far about ponies in stores in the UK? I know a while back it was mentioned that they will be heading over to the UK, but I can confirm that they ARE here, in case people don't know. Maybe there has been a post about it already and I missed it, someone lemme know.

      But either way, there are many G4 ponies in my local Tesco and Toys R Us now, including that oh-so-rare 4-pack of figures of Twilight, Dash, Rarity and Pinkie.

    7. Ooh, Trixie pumpkin. Nice. And a pumpkin event, you say? Well, I'm interested. Though admittedly, I haven't carved a pumpkin in a long time.

      Huh, that Rainbow Dash they used on the side of the building looks like a giant sticker. We have similar things on the walls here. Same size too it looks like. Cool. :) And I don't mind some graffiti. It can look quite nice and artful. :D

      Nice Rainbow Dash case. I'm surprised I haven't seen more of these yet really. I know all the big computer builders and customizers are around. ;) And I know a few companies that do absolutely fantastic work with custom cut cases.

      A chalk pony is fine too~ And a giant one no less. Some one will probably 1-up this eventually too. Just watch.

      Inafter others mentioning the missing Q&A session with Jayson. :P But yeah, throw that in there at some point, Seth. ;)

      Yup, saw some of those new recolors just earlier in a Target.

      The Rainbow Dash oil painting... they just had to take a shot of her plot. Now I can't look at it without instantly thinking "dat plot". lol

      VastaKustuta
    8. I had a good laughat the description.
      Get some sleep.

      VastaKustuta
    9. more ponygrafitti! i think i would get more excited about a Rainbow Dash then i would about an origional Banksey.

      i have become part of the problem and its magical :D

      VastaKustuta
    10. I should do something pony to my desktop... where is my spray paint

      VastaKustuta
    11. Needs to be a pony Minecraft mod apart from that weird one which changes your avatar.

      VastaKustuta
    12. I need to find some bronies around here. I have no idea how though. :(

      VastaKustuta
    13. I dont reallt play rs at all anymore but...ITS ABOUT FRKING TIME.A CLAN/GUILD GOT ON LFM PART OF NRU...:3

      VastaKustuta
    14. Pumpkin ponies, I think that is the last art form that we had to combine with ponies. I think we are done now until they build a laser powerful enough to tag the moon with Luna's face.

      VastaKustuta
    15. Regarding the Freaky Friday part of the post, I should direct some of you guys to a fic called "To Trot A Mile In Another's Hooves", featuring Applejack and Rainbow Dash taking on a bet where they have to switch places. It's a really good read. :)

      VastaKustuta
    16. Go russia and go those chalk drawings :D

      VastaKustuta
    17. Looking at those Pony recolors, I'm kind of annoyed at how lazy Hasbro is being (even though I own no pony toys at all). I don't blame them for opting for simple recolors on the toys themselves since the sculpts are not all that unique anyway, but what excuse is there for just recoloring the pictures of Rarity, Dash, Cheerilee and such on the box? Take the 15 minutes to have an artist draw a different mane on the illustrations (since the doll hair on the toy will never match it anyway) and suddenly it actually looks like a new character rather than a color-shifted copy.

      VastaKustuta
    18. Russian is not country. It is lifestyle.
      BTW. This pumpkin is awesome. Good work for author.

      VastaKustuta
    19. I wrote a story weeks ago that would have fit incely into that freaky Friday event.

      But the prereaders rejected it so... yeah...

      VastaKustuta
    20. Can't really read the names on those new pony toys.
      I managed to make out "Honeybuzz" "Feathermay" and "Plumsweet", but I can't figure out the other three.

      They're quite pretty tho. :3

      VastaKustuta
    21. Oh my God I want that white re-colour of Pinkie Pie! It looks adorable!!!

      I expected you to carve a Trixie pumpkin for Halloween. That would be all shades of awesome Seth if you do that.

      I'm actually interested on the Halloween Banner thingie, I might try something out and send it your way.

      Also, Fallout New Vegas mods? I gotta see if they run on the Xbox 360.

      I'm guessing this is the one. I will leave this here while Seth gets his much deserved sleep ^_^;

      VastaKustuta
    23. You think that city looked clean? Wow, the US must look sh*t. You should come to Norway sometime.

      Eeyup, I was JUST about to comment with that same link.

      You dun goof'd Seth! =)

      Oh, and I'm gonna come out and admit it here: Big Macintosh is best secondary pony. I just wish they didn't kill his character, taking him from being Applejack's experienced (and "wise") older brother to a catchphrase-repeating "+1" character, but here's hoping he gets some redemption (however small) in the future.
      Seriously, I can't even call that guy a background pony. He MUST be secondary by this stage! :P

      Fan in-jokes about liking specific characters too much aside, yeah, that's probably the right link considering it's the best out of all of them. Best video quality (and frame rate!), clearest audio, and it actually spans the entire session.

      VastaKustuta
    25. That giant chalk pony is literally right outside my dorm. It's pretty great.

      VastaKustuta
    26. I'm still waiting for Pony sightings at the Occupy Wall St. protests.

      VastaKustuta
    27. I just noticed that the pink Dash recolor has an orange parrot. That imposter stole Dash's pet! That's why she never had one in Season 1!

      VastaKustuta
    28. Hasbro!! Y U NO make show accurate toys!!!

      VastaKustuta
    29. Seth, Seth, Seth! What are the specs of your rig? Tell us!

      VastaKustuta
    30. HI! I just realized that if you tried to register on EverfreeForest.com, the reCAPTCHA was derped. It's fixed now. Sorry!! We had changed domains earlier and I forgotten to update that.

      VastaKustuta
    31. i think we all want to go to Russia sometime seth

      VastaKustuta
    32. Россия рулит, поняши!

      VastaKustuta
    33. I want the fluttershy iPhone case but they only made it for the 4 and 4s iPhones... =(

      I has a 3G still........

      VastaKustuta
    34. Runescape? Oh nostalgia... so many wasted hours (days)(115 day's worth. You can check) of preteen time...

      VastaKustuta
    35. Heh. You know, I was actually going to write that story... a Freaky Friday crossover with Rarity and Applejack switching places on the day that Rarity would have a meeting with Hoity Toity and on the day Applejack would star in a Rodeo. But I guess if everybody is going to be doing it (probably better than I could) I might as well leave it to the others and focus on one of my other crossover ideas.

      Besides, there's probably no way I could do anything in one chapter, less than 15 pages...

      VastaKustuta
    36. That pumpkin, case mod and chalk drawings were pretty darn cool

      VastaKustuta
    37. I know a Carnegie Mellon brony, and I suspect that she's currently omigosh-ing over those chalk ponies. They're so awesome!

      VastaKustuta
    38. Oh my god! My pony pumpkin has made it to Equestria Daily! Why am I the last person to know this? I'm finding out about my own pumpkin on facebook. Regaurdless...I am pleased :D

      VastaKustuta
    39. I hope those russian artist guys had premission to put RD on that building, or that it wasn't owned by anyone.

      As for the city looking clean to quote that one character from Yugioh Zexal "There's an underside to everything"

      You only saw the back of one building after all...

      VastaKustuta
    40. So... Was there a video or not? Because if that interview video happened, I don't see it in this post.

      VastaKustuta
    41. I guess that I am going to stop by CMU tomorrow, in order to see if they are still there.

      VastaKustuta
    42. Target in La Crosse, WI has re-color ponies in stock, for those who care.

      Also, our regional store, Shop-Ko, has the Pinkie Pie ornaments for $14.

      VastaKustuta
    43. My dad went to Carnegie Mellon. Why cant he be this cool... XD
