      27. OMG LOVE IT!

    9. #22 I LOVE DOUBLE ENTRENDES!
      #20 Besides the lone statue, doesn't seem very pony inspired IMO.
      #16 Is just awesomely radically cool.
      #5 Good, but I don't get it.
      #8 Who said she did? WHO!?!? I will crush them into tiny pieces!
      #7 I can see why Scootaloo is miffed.

      ReplyDelete
    16. #8 - Oh, thank GOD! I wasn't sure and was about to ask!

      Time for the rest of the Drawfriend...

      ReplyDelete
    17. Some of you seem to be wondering about #8.

      The artist cartoon lion often portrays her with a dick and calls her Futashy. It even has a tumblr where apparently Pinkie and Dash are a human couple and have "Futashy" as a pet that humps everything.

      Personally, I hate it.

      ReplyDelete
    18. I really... REALLY can't believe #8 got on here... I guess it is SFW... but still... it is heavily referring to some NSFW stuff...

      ReplyDelete
    19. I want everyone to look at #9. Then think about if you saw it with no context whatsoever. I loled hard.

      ReplyDelete
    20. #6 Please don't let this be a new meme...
      #8 Didn't get it until google explained it. I cried.
      #16 Dash as an alicorn? Things just got 30% cooler.

      ReplyDelete
    21. #6 D'Awwwww
      #8 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ... I can't ... breathe. XD
      #10 If JJ starts drawing every pony with wet hair, like he did with the bed mane, I might cry from sheer amazing.
      #13 & #24 Pure Badflank-ness

    22. Some very cool images this Drawfriend!

      1) She should take off the glasses more often. Great work on this one.
      2) Rarity working her reformed tail is always a favorite with me. Always love this artist's style.
      3) Another outstanding portrait, with a unique style, dynamic pose and great coloring.
      4) I've never fully gotten behind the idea that Celestia and Discord used to be sweet on each other. Still, a neat image. Love her mane.
      5) Uh-oh. Derpy is not happy again, although this time she's testy rather than sad.
      6) Oh, Twilight. That's just not right.
      7) Okay, that's pretty funny. Love the look on Scoot's face.
      8) Do I want to know why Fluttershy felt the need to point this out?
      9) Again with the cozy enemies... I feel like its the equivalent of drawing Luke Skywalker making out with the Emperor. (Knowing the internet, someone probably already has.) Really nice style and coloring though.
      10) Not only has she loosened her tie, she's gone the wet-mane look! It suits her. Great portrait.
      11) Why aren't the skies out here like this? Brilliant blue and full of ponies.
      12) Pinkie! Don't smudge the lens! Cute image.
      13) Scratch is mission ready.
      14) Great shading and brush work on this adorable Derpy snowmare.
      15) Happiness is a colorful tortoise.
      16) Heh... funny, and well done!
      17) Derpy can solve the riddle. The heads behind her are a bit disconcerting.
      18) Oh my... glasses just make her that much more adorable.
      19) Do a barrel roll! Really neat image.
      20) Moody and evocative. Is that a Luna statue?
      21) What has upset poor Screwy so? Love her eyes.
      22) Left for Dead ponies? Or some other game?
      23) Wow... she looks fierce!
      24) I still wonder where the charge for Tank's helicopter came from. Cool to see a show-accurate portrait of him.
      25) That's a different style for Luna... I quite like it.
      26) A really nicely done job on the shading here.
      27) This is probably my favorite of the day. Sure, it's probably meant as a prelude to shipping, but it's such a charming image, and I love the use of textures to create the background.

      Great work every artist, and a great collection all together!

    24. #16 that is indeed AWESOME!
      #22 TAAAAAAAAANK!

      ReplyDelete
    25. And then everypony exploded into millions of emails.

      #1 Aw yeah, I love me some awesome Vinyl art. This artist does some really lovely digital work. I like the addition of the old little toy record player. I think I had one of those at one point when I was little.
      #2 Dat Rarity tail whip. Cute and I like the shading style this artist uses.
      #3 This is quite the awesome art style. I tend to really like styles done similar to this one. Nice, flowing and kinda whimsical.
      #4 Dat shipping couple. Discord seems to like where this is going...
      #6 Com'on, we all knew these pics were coming after that comment in the episode. Admittedly, this is what first popped into my head as well. lol I think Twilight would make an adorable pet. And she's very loyal. <3
      #7 So... Applebloom's special talent is being a chicken? Lawl. Love Scootaloo's expression.
      #8 Okay, Skyrim reference. I had to read the title but I thought it probably was one. And awww, sure, dash my dreams, Fluttershy! :( Lmao. I'm sorry. I'm feeling a little spunky in my commenting lately I guess.
      #9 Wow, that's gorgeous. Their poses, the lighting, the shading. It's all really nice. I like the little drawings on the sun back there. lol Cute. Also, the mushrooms are kinda adorable. <3 Really really nice work on this.
      #10 As soon as I saw this one earlier today, I simply KNEW it would most likely end up here. lol That predictability. It looks like I get to join the ranks of Wet Hair Rarity now. It's very lovely.
      #11 Nice perspective on this one. I like how her tail trails off into the sunbeam.
      #12 Pinkie... stop breaking the fourth wall... and stop staring at me! :|
      #13 Cyberpunk is another style I find rather cool-looking like Steampunk. Of course Vinyl makes an awesome pony for this design style. She has a more technological feel to her. :)
      #14 D'oh! Derpy has her very own unique way of making a snowmare. Which also happens to be one of the most adorable. <3
      #15 D'awwww. So many cute RD and Tank pics popping up now. Pretty colors. Me likes. :3
      #16 Hah. That RD alicorn. Actually rather reminds me of Lauren's OC pony.
      #17 That ancient puzzle. Com'on, Derpy, you can do it. I have faith in you.
      #18 I thought this one had been posted before. Or one of these smart Derpy in a sweater pics anyway. lol
      #19 Ooooh, such a beautiful sunset over the water. Fun perspective.
      #20 Very nice. Not even sure how to really describe my fondness if this one. It's got a nice deep darker feel though with the simple black, white and greys. Thought it was a graveyard scene at first. Was kinda disappointed when I found out it actually wasn't. lol But I still really like it. Looks like some very old pony city. I'm also a sucker for old architecture. :>
      #21 Oh, Screwball. You crazy nut you. You're so silly. Also maybe just slightly scary here. <3
      #22 Dem flat guns. lol Cool crossover pic.
      #23 Another awesome Dash image. Like the nicely portrayed sense of incredible speed.
      #24 Everyone loves Tank and his funky-cool little flying apparatus.
      #25 Ain't so great? I think it's really nice aside from the missing accessories. Would make a kinda cool poster too. Especially for next to your bed. It strikes me as a nice bedtime image.
      #26 Has that nice more realistic look to it. Also loving the shading and the trees back there.
      #27 That's rather cute. Looks like some interesting textures used in this too. This piece has got a certain serene peacefulness to it. At least to me. It could just be the rain, dark clouds and overall stormy feel though. I'm a sucker for those types of scenes. lol

      ReplyDelete
    26. So much good art this drawfriend! I found so much I want to try now that I've got a tablet! Time to get to it :D

      ReplyDelete
    27. Loads of great art tonight!

      #1: Great portrait; I love how the lighter blue stripes in her mane and tail look like they're glowing.

      #3: I'm going to have to keep an eye on this tumblr; I love this old-fashioned style, and it works perfectly with Rainbow Dash's dynamic pose. This one's my favorite of the night.

      #5: I might need to keep an eye on this tumbler too; this is a nice portrait of a pair of close friends having a "spirited disussion", and the artist has given Derpy a unique backstory.

      #8: I think @richfiles has already said all that needs to be said about this drawing.

      #10: So, is John Joseco going to be doing wet-mane ponies instead of morning ponies? I could live with that. And Octavia's a fine choice for this treatment.

      #12: And there goes the fourth wall again...

      #14: I lol'd! This is one of the funnier Derpy drawings in a while.

      #17: And here's the sequel.

      #18: Repost, but I'm not complaining; I love Briskby's drawings of Derpy.

      #19: I love the lighting and the unusual angle on this drawing; they really give it a feeling of motion.

      #20: Wonderful use of contrast and shading; this drawing reeks of atmosphere. It almost looks like charcoal.

      #23: Very effective use of distortion to give the impression of Dash on the verge of a Sonic Rainboom.

      #25: Cute storybook-style portrait of Luna; I could see this in a foal's picture book on Equestria.

      #26: It's a simple portrait of Twilight Sparkle, but I love it; the shadows from the shrubbery really add to the feeling of realism.

      #27: A joyous picture of two friends horsing around in the rain; I knew DJB123 would love it, and I half-expect WhiteDiamonds to squee when she sees it.

    28. Oh dear GOD, I just FREAKING DIED at number 8! It was... Oh gawd, I am just... I'm a terrible brony...

      ReplyDelete
    29. This might be the funniest draw friend ever.

      2. Referencing that scene from episode two I hope.

      5. They're even cute when fighting.

      6. Muwhawhaw. I knew these would be coming. This one is pretty sweet.

      7. Muwhawhaw. Poor Scootaloo.

      10. Octavia come out of the ran before you catch cold.

      12. Don't adjust your set, Pinkie will do it for you.

      14. Snow Derpy.

      15. Dawww. Nice bold colors.

      16. Muwhawhaw. Fantasic, totally lost at the Deal With It shades.

      17. I guess Derpy is going to burn it with fire.

      19. What a beautiful sunset.

      24. I adore the smug look look and those floppy legs.

    30. Scootaloo cutie mark = best cutie mark.

    31. I get [i]Red Dragon and Woman Clothed in the Sun[/i] vibes from 9.

    32. "This one time, me and my buddy Spitfire took Tank down to the swamp for some fishin'. But we didn't know that he'd had some bad alfalfa beforehand. Whooo-ee, let me tell you. Swamp gas and turtle gas don't mix all that good. Well, Spitfire, she tried to hightail it on outta there, but she got that fire comin' outta her backside when she goes too fast.

      You know that swamp gas is flammable?

      Spitfire din't. Hooooo, man. Third-degree burns over twenty-percent o' her backside. It's funny, 'cause we had to take 'er back to town, but she smelled like swamp gas and turtle farts and burnt hair, and there weren't nopony in the clinic was gonna touch her."

    33. @jodyjm13

      You're right; you could not hear me, but I did indeed squee.

      @DJB123

      I did see what you did there!

      But anyway yes, that #27... I know it's not the case obviously, but I almost feel as though this picture was made specifically for me, as I wanted to do something similar after seeing Sisterhooves Social. And of course these are my two favorite ponies and I also enjoy shipping them way too much. I'd probably gush even more enthusiastically but I'm trying to refrain, otherwise I'm sure I'll just embarrass myself... *ahem* Needless to say I love it though!

      And it's true, there really is a smashing collection of artworks in tonight's Drawfriend. I'd love to be able to comment on them all but I have just gotten home from work, have not eaten a single thing all day and feel as though I could fall asleep at the keyboard so yes, I'll keep it brief...

      #1 This is truly a gorgeous artwork... the shading/coloring is so smooth it almost looks like plastic or something and I absolutely adore the glowing music notes and streaks in Vinyl's mane, they're fantastic. Beautifully done.
      #9 I don't know if this is supposed to be shippy or whatever but it doesn't matter; this is a beautiful piece of art as far as I'm concerned. I even love those creepy little mushroom-things running around at the bottom.
      #15 I am really envious of artists who are this fearless when it comes to color... this is so fabulous in so many ways. My kudos to you artist...
      #19 Love the composition on this one; I imagine that must be what it's like to dip and roll through the sky like Rainbow does. It makes me miss my coastal home too. Lovely job.
      #26 Another one I feel obligated to mention... love the cast shadow of the foliage here and the artist's painting technique.

      Why are you all so good? I really need to step up my fanart-game if I'm going to keep putting my work up, I guess.

      Just so you know, cartoonlion's a she. I'm a fan of hers, and I like to keep these things straight. Anyways, this was a fun drawfriend. I can't find a single one that I don't like.

    35. #6 No, stop it! Stop it right now, damn you.

      #7 And then they did it.

      #8 ....um.....okay....I...

      #10 Damn you johnjoseco. Damn you and your sexy pretty ponies. Look what you're making me say.

      #13 I don't know what's happening, but I don't ever want it to stop.

      #19 I'm getting Afterburner flashbacks. Really awesome ones.

      #22 Heh.

      #23 Sweet.

      ReplyDelete
    36. last photo, Rarityjack?.... No :C
      still good art though.

      My favorite is 10... ahhh... Octavia... you are almost best pony with a pic like that.

      ReplyDelete
    37. @Stargazer But... that... Confound it all! Now I have to search google for it, just to see the horribleness! xD

      Still, overall awesome Drawfriend, just like it should be!

      ReplyDelete
    38. I thought #8 was funny, then laughed my arse off when I saw the artist. I'm a terrible person for completely understanding that before reading the comments...

      ReplyDelete
    39. Great drawfriend today. I really like #27 the background and cheerful expressions are brilliant.

      I'd actually say it's cheered me up somewhat, I love it when art does that.

      ReplyDelete
    40. Aww hell yeah! Vinyl and Alicorn RD make this Drawfriend 30 % cooler!

    44. If you know why Fluttershy said that in #8, then I hope you think her message is a win.

      ReplyDelete
    45. 1) Scratch looks so awesome there!

      21) Screwball so crazy!

      ReplyDelete
    46. Also, that #6! I instantly think of that manga "Tramps Like Us", even though only having read works based on it.

      ReplyDelete
    47. #10 is beautiful! I love that style for her.

    48. @mycutiemarkisagun

      I must admit dear, I think I have come to look forward to reading your posts when you see fit to comment. You have a charmingly... unconventional way of interpreting the world I suppose is how I would put it... it's interesting to me.

      Er... I meant all that in a good way, if that wasn't quite clear...

    50. aaaannnndddd I'm already sick of images of Twi with a leash around her neck...

      However, I never get sick of Images of Left 4 Dead Rainbow Dash...

      Although, I think she would look cooler dressed up as Zoey from L4D1...

      ReplyDelete
    51. Haha. Alicorn Rainbow dash should have a 20% cooler name to go with that, sutible for her accendence to godhood. Rainbow Storm?

      ReplyDelete
    52. I love #15, the colours are amazing :D

      ReplyDelete
    53. good stuff in this set, #27 certainly gets a D'aww from me ^^

      ReplyDelete
    54. #16 Is gonna spawn ''Rainbow is related to Celestia'' Rainbow can turn into an alicorn and all sorts of fads and images about it.

    55. #12: I got to have that on my Iphone lock screen.

      ReplyDelete
    56. #1 Why does she look at me like that ? <3

      #2 Rarity knows exactly how to capturee my attention - by shaking her ... tail ... yes, her ... tail ...

      #3 I REALLY like her mane

      #4 I wonder if Celestia was telling the "whole" story about her and discord back then

      #6 :´( poor twi

      #7 lol sweetie's and scootaloo's expressions are great

      #8 WUT ? - I pretty much hope you don't, dear.

      #9 More awesome discord and celestia shipping - i'm ok with that

      #10 You can't go wrong with wet ponies (exept sea ponies i guess... *shudder*)

      #12 I wonder what pinkie is up to

      #15 Lovely scene - and those colors <3


      #24 Smug tank is smug

      #25 This should be a poster for something

      #26 Awesome rendering

      #27 Rarity and AJ - yay :) --- i like those trees. also - wet and muddy rarity - if that's a dream, don't wake me up...

    58. @Whispy Willows

      Oh yeah. I do tend to forget that she's a she. It's just... All dem darn dicks... It's easy to forget that fact. I mean, seriously. her art style is beautiful, but good God, all the... well... THAT stuff!!! I personally enjoy Fluttershy and Big Mac shipping. It's adorable.

      What Cartoonlion does... is...

    61. #5: Nice to see some more attention being given to other background ponies.
      #10: Are we in for a trend of pictures of ponies with wet hair, or something?
      #12: Pinkie, stop paying so much attention to the fourth wall. It's why everypony else thinks you're nuts.
      #13: Until I looked at the source URL, I thought this was supposed to be Homage from Fallout Equestria.
      #16: Dream on, Dash. No one is going to trust you with that sort of power.
      #27: Oh, I can really see this happening.
