#2: I really need to find out what REA stands for one of these days. My guess based on context is Royal Equestrian... and then either 'army' or 'air force'.
#17 Really cool and fantastically well drawn... but a Dr. Whooves pic without Derpy in it somewhere? I am dissapoint.
@MyBoyJ Well yes, but not even what I assume is baby talk would exclude the and. I think it says "That's Luna, Zecora."
But back to my main point, I never asked what it meant, I said I didn't get it. I just don't see the context, you know? I mean, there's Luna and Zecora, but where does the baby talk come into play?
Seth, you always post these too early now. What a ridiculously short Drawfriend! I guess I'll comment on them all!
#1- I don't get it, (is there anything to get) but I like it. #2- I think that's just a different caption. Either that, or you're late on the REA stuff, Seth. #3- All my bits #4- Wavy mane? Nnope. #5- That would be Dash on steroids. Yeah, steroids. #6- That's going to be an epic fic. #7- Trixie, no! You don't know what you're doing! #8- Wat? #9- Much better. She looks perfect. #10- That's quite a workout. #11- Leather Bracers are worth more EXP. #12- Looks like Littlepip came back. She looks pissed. #13- Hmm... #14- Meh #15- Love that artist, but Applebloom and Sweetie Belle look a little pudgy #16- Woot! More Applejack! #17- Tenth Doctor is best Doctor, especially because ponies #18- That Blackbird shouldn't be anywhere near Dash. She's too fast. #19- Good #20- Mother of Celestia, no...
Valentine's Day... Brace yourselves, ship-fics are coming.
@Bear its a Skyrim joke, the best way to level up your Smithing skill is to make tons of iron daggers, but in real life, if you just make Iron Daggers how would you know how to craft anything better?
My best guess is that Seth is just expressing a childlike fondness for the first picture. It does have something of a whimsical fairytale quality to it. But I would have said DAS DERPY
#2: Makes Seth happy, cause of Spitfire #7: don't really like because of the pentagram (I'm baptist christian) #11: Hey, a Skyrim joke that's actually funny. #13: Take a look at me, and BUY ME MORE JEWELRY!!!! #16 AJ's hat is such a troll, I mean it.
Short but quality drawfriend today. Here's all my faves:
#2) Always good to remember what you're fighting for. #7) Magic comes in handy when you're too broke and homeless to go to the movies. Lion King's one of my favorites. #9) Rarity as Red Mage makes total sense, but all I see in this pic is Rarity Sandiego. Fantastic! #13) Zecorapatra, completely love it. In jewels that place her all above it. #17) A very dynamic shot of Tardis in motion; the good Doctor should be getting more spotlight. Everything else was far above average too. Great job, everyone.
#1 Love the art style, but shouldn't Luna's mane be a shadow of blue and not black? #4 Twi <3 #6 I suppose, there's some story behind this picture. A fic, maybe? #11 Grinding at its finest. lol @ quality background #12 Badass Lilpip is badass. #17 Doctor, where have you lost Derpy? #18 Great fic, great art.
I LOLOLOLOLed so hard I choked on my fries. The King's fries may be to die for, but the Queen of derp will actually try to kill you with a thousand tiny iron daggers!
#1 Wow, that's a really gorgeous pic. Colors, Shades, lighting, they're all really good. If that's what Equestria looks like, now I want to be there even more. I really like Luna in this. Her coloring looks so nice and smooth. Especially her mane. Yes, I really like her mane!
#2 Uh-oh, more REA Spitfire here to seduce us into joining. Jeez, if you haven't joined already, it seems Spitfire is willing to pull out all the stops to get you to do so. I know it's becoming harder to resist the urge to join. Yes, there is a bad joke in there.
#5 What an awesome Birthday present for sure. I really like the more simplistic side shot perspective and pose on this. And the clean lines and strong flat colors. Looks really good. I'm sure they will be thrilled.
#7 Trixie is summoning a bunch of spiritual animals it seems. I wonder if she could summon Ursa's this way too...
#8-10 These are all pretty cool. I'm not a huge Final Fantasy fan really, but I think they all look pretty kickass in the outfits. Though I will admit... I thought Rarity was Carmen Sandiego at first. Please don't hurt me!
#11 Derpy as a blacksmith? Why do I have the feeling this can't end well? lol I was a great blacksmith, but then I took an arrow to the knee. I'm sorry, I'm sorry! But at least it looks like she's making enough crappy iron daggers to supply at least 10 villages. :P
#13 Wow, that Zecora outfit is beautiful. Really fancy. I think this outfit would make even Rarity green with envy. I wonder if this would be something akin to her Gala attire. I could see that. Very nice clothing and jewelry design with this.
#14 D'awww, isn't that sweet? Applejack pulling a blanket over Twilight who likely fell asleep studying. Very cute. :3
#17 Dat description. Quite the awesome Dr Whoof image. Lot of stuff happening and things to look at. I feel kinda bad because one of the things I noticed first was... Rarity's plot. lol But that made me notice something odd: why do her legs seem to be going through the side of the TARDIS? Anyway, it's a great pic. I also love care-free Pinkie just riding on top of the TARDIS, having the time of her life. Get it? Time? Dr. Whoof? Yeah, I'm not great at jokes, sorry.
#18 Does something this badass and awesome even need explaining? I like the little Cutie Mark Crusader logo on the back wing, nice small touch.
#20 Really love this one. It's simple, but it has a strong emotional feel behind it. And I simply love how the artist portrayed her wings.
Last Drawfriend for me until at least Sunday. Maybe Monday. Tomorrow it's off to BroNYCon. :)
I really needed this today. I'm not going to comment on any individual pieces per my usual practice as I've had a terrible headache all day, but I did enjoy looking at them all. Thank you, everypony, for sharing.
1) Beautiful work. I love these kinds of scenes with full background and various details to look at. I don't know what Angel is up to, but I don't trust that bunny one bit. I still need to see a scene with Rarity, Zecora, Luna and the Mayor all together. We came so close with Luna Eclipsed. 2) It's amazing how much a little context shift can make. Spitfire is pretty awesome... I'm convinced Dash has a way to go to match her. 3) What a gorgeous Luna image. Just beautifully done. 4) A very cute Twilight in an original style. I like it. 5) Dash is looking pretty svelte and epic. I always like Cloudsdale as a background too. 6) Nyx needs to take better care of reading material! Still, that's a truly impressive painting and very dynamic. I wonder if people will eventually start giving her star-field hair like Luna and NNM. 7) Trixie grows in power. Soon she shall have her revenge. Soon. 8) Twilight's hat has nothing on Trixie's. Needs some stars or something. I'm sure Rarity could spice it up some. 9) See? She knows how to do it. Love the giant feather. 10) I know it says she's a monk, but I'm getting some Olivia Newton John vibes from the headband. Either way would be intimidating from a crazy pink pony, I suppose. 11) Derpy apparently makes a hell of an iron dagger. I haven't played Skyrim, but I recall spending a lot of time forging things in Fable... until I realized how much easier it is to earn money bartending. 12) Wow. Apparently dual-wielding is for noobs. 13) Cool! A fancy looking Zecora... Now I totally want Rarity to design something for her to wear to a royal function in Canterlot. 14) This is exactly the kind of "shipping/friendshipping" image that I think Jody was talking about yesterday. It's cute, and you're welcome to read as much into it individually as you like. I quite like this one. 15) Heh... I like the symbols on the apple... what a nice gift from Applebloom. 16) That's got to be a serious wind to shake that hat off of her head. I think the brim has a deathgrip on her, usually. Nicely rendered. 17) Yikes! Whatever is happening to Rarity does not look healthy at all. Pretty great, dramatic image of the Doctor and Tardis giving the Ponies a ride, though! 18) Proof that the Blackbird is obsolete. And that Dash is awesome. Great image! 19) It's not a drawfriend without some insanely cute Fluttershy. 20) Awww... Scootalove. I like the wing scribbles quite a bit. Lovely portrait.
You know, this was indeed a short one but it was overloaded with charm. Excellent job, all of your supremely talented artists... Thanks for sharing! And as always, thanks to Seth and the gang for putting these together.
@Eddmario #2 is, I believe, a new image. It's similar to a prior REA Spitfire pin-up that had a much more suggestive slogan, though, which made it a little too saucy for use on the front page.
Well I have no idea why everypony wants to call me "woona" I swear I will find a way to get back at Tia for using that nickname in front of so many ponies. @Nightmare Moon AAAAAAAUUUUGGGGGHHHHHH WHYYYYYYY ARE YOU BAAAAAAACK!!!!! I thought the elements were enough, why, Why, WHY! GETAWAYGETAWAYGETAWAY I DON'T WANT TO BE STUCK ON MY MOON AGAAAAIINNNN!!!!!!! CELLYYYYYYY GET IN HERE!!!!!!!
Finally got my computer to behave for a few seconds. Time for some Drawfriend!
#1 Wow. Just wow. No wonder this was the "headlining" image. It's just so well drawn. #2 Going back to "familiar" ground, huh. #3 Beautiful. Luna + aurora = WIN! #4 So what kind of magic are you working today? #5 Rainbow Dash in all her glory! #6 So much to take in here. Nice. #7 That's such a cool trick. #8-10 Awesome blend of Final Fantasy and ponies. The looks fit them so well. #11 That's just too funny. Derpy as a blacksmith. LOL #12 Is this the point where I get on my knees and beg for mercy? #13 Wow. Such a well designed outfit. Oh jeez, there goes my inner Rarity. LOL #14 Looks like Twi hit the books a little too hard again. #15 I don't know why, but I find this just adorable. #16 I'd have been caught off guard too if my hat suddenly got blown away. #17 What have you done this time, Doc?!! #18 Oh, wow! I found my new background…well, better said, something new to add to my current cycle. #19 So awesome! #20 Can a pony ever be too cute? NEVER! Yay Scootaloo!
#1: Unusual selection of characters and setting for a drawing, but I like it; Luna's mane and tail look a little strange, though everything else is excellent.
#2: A bit saucier than previous REA posters, but still good.
#3: Great Luna drawing as she flies through the night skies; this would make a nice bookmark.
#4: Unusual style for this Twilight Sparkle, but I like it.
#5: Very nice action shot of Rainbow Dash with Cloudsdale in the background.
#7: Good drawing of Trixie practicing her strength, illusions.
#9: Rarity wants to look her best even in dark, dank caves.
#10: The Pinkie Pie exercise plan: stand on your forelegs 10 times, and break the fourth wall 3 times a day.
#11: I like this silly Derpy drawing.
#13: Terrific Zecora fanart; I wonder if that's what she'd wear to the Gala.
#14: Cute scene with AJ and Twilight, regardless of whether you see it as shipping or frienshipping.
#15: This drawing's from about 3 months ago, but may not have appeared in a Drawfriend then; sweet drawing of 2/3 of the CMC.
#16: I think AJ may need a strap to keep that hat on her head. I really like this style of art.
#17: Epic action shot of the mane 6 with our favorite equine Time Lord; lots of fun details, but since my break's over, I can't comment any further on them.
If it hasn't been addressed, to all those that don't get the derpy blacksmith joke; it's poking at one of the best way to level your smithing skill in skyrim; which is by crafting iron daggers, tons of them.
#1 The detail! Great work. #6 That's Nyx I'm assuming, have never read that fic. Seems damn popular though. Anyway this piece of art is awesome, love the wings. #7 That's a mighty fine spell you're practicing there Trixie. #8-10 Love it, Pinkie made me laugh. Looks like she has some pretty wacky fighting style. #12 Yea... Don't think anypony will be bothering you. #13 Wow, awesome look for Zecora. #14 Dawwww... All my <3 #16 Nooooo! #17 I really have to watch Doctor Who sometime, heard a lot of good things about that show.
Totally LOLing at the chronic RPing Princess Luna. Yikes. Even Nightmare Moon needs the occasional hug! Dat new Luna is a funny Luna.
I have to say that 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 11, 12, and 17 were filled with unimaginable levels of win!
1, 3, 6, and 17 in particular were STELLAR!!! Luna's mane was stellar, space was stellar, 6... 6... hmmm stars in 6... Oh!!! I know! There are stars on Twilight's butt, therefore it is also stellar! LOLOL!
in source #18 The SR-71 Blackbird is the fastest aircraft that can be launched from the ground. They have planes that are a lot faster, but they must be launched in mid-air from a converted B-52 bomber. In other words, Dashie has some serious competition. But don't worry she might be able to pull of the mach 15 speed of the x15. See you in the sky!
@BornIn1142 Brian McPherson did a couple of "recruiting posters" featuring Spitfire, and Spitshy has followed with three more, of which #2 is the latest; they're similar enough that if you haven't seen one in a while, I can understand how you'd think the newest one is a repeat.
1. Now there's a pair you don't see everyday. I wouldn't mind seeing this two interact on the show a bit more, just because they're both fascinating but rarely get much screentime. In particular, I enjoy the use of colors and the feeling this piece has of being a quality painting I'd like to hang up on my wall. 2. I'm pretty sure this is a duplicate. Also, no, Spitfire, no matter how you act, I won't be joining the REA. 3. Seems to have some unnecessary blank space near the bottom, but other than that it's a great picture of Luna. 4. A wonderful picture of Twilight, though it's definitely a different take on the design than the traditional art style. 5. Yes! This is the majesty that should be Pegasus wings all day erry day. 6. I don't recognize the character or the setting...I see Twilight in the background, but the lack of context confuses me. Though that said, if the look on their faces and the shredded state of the book is any indication, something is seriously wrong... 7. That's a neat new trick, Trixie. I just hope you aren't planning on using them to attack anypony. 8. Twilight with a magician's hat looks cute. 9. Now, my first thought here was Carmen Sandirarity, but apparently she's supposed to be a red mage. Either way, it's a great look for our lovely lady. 10. Pinkie's workin' those hooves. Nice amusing action pose. 11. Well she's certainly produced a lot of daggers, at least, though how useful they are in terms of design for ponies, I'm not so sure... 12. I'm pretty sure this is supposed to be Littlepip, since that appears to be Little Machintosh she's holding, amongst other weaponry. As before, the Pipbuck is on the wrong leg, but otherwise it's a neat little action pose, although she might be trying to wield too many weapons at once. 13. Zecora looks lovely in this jewelery...although at first I thought one of them was supposed to be an Element of Harmony, something that sent up a red flag in my mind since that didn't seem to be quite right. 14. Twilight fell asleep on her books and Applejack is seeing to it that she sleeps well. D'awww. 15. A great sepia-tone sketch of two of the CMCs. Interesting how fascinated they are by the apple...I wonder why? 16. This problem is probably rather common for poor Applejack...must be much harder trying to wear hats as an Earth Pony, since you can't exactly use magic to catch it and you don't have hands. 17. Speaking of paintings I'd love to put on a wall...while there does seem to be something odd with Rarity's legs(she's clipping through the police box) it's a fantastic drawing. The use of color, the angle, the action poses, the way Pinkie is so calm while everyone else is scared out of their wits...it's perfect. 18. You go, Rainbow Dash! Outrace those human-made flying machines! Show us humans why we can't ever take the skies away from the Pegasi!
...I feel as though I'm biased in the wrong direction here... 19. Fluttershy is, as always, adorable. 20. Now THAT'S how you do a subtle drawing. Spectacular the way it engenders feelings in the viewer despite its simplicity. I especially adore the way the wings are merely drawn lines implying their presence.
#6 features Nyx, the main character of a popular fan fiction named "Past Sins". Essentially, she's the product of a cult using a spell to try and resurrect Nightmare Moon independent from Luna. The spell gets interrupted, and she comes into the world as a young filly with no memories of her past self. Twilight is the one to find her and take her in, keeping her origin a secret for fear of what would happen to her if it was thought that Nightmare Moon had been reborn.
And for those who don't get 11, it's a running joke on how easy blacksmithing is in Skyrim. Since all items give the same amount of XP (bug or really bad game design), Derpy is capable of crafting the most basic level item in the game and get to master blacksmith easy peasy, lemon squeezy.
Mmmmm, smell that? That's the smell of high quality art. I've been missing that as of late. I'll have to get back to the drawfriend and away from everything else.
Nevermind that winged flight in outerspace is impossible. You're pretty much constantly at stall speed. The Blackbird has the advantage of its massive ramjets and relatively short wings. It's the only jet fighter throughout history capable of outrunning a missile.

Lots of nice pics today :3
ReplyDeleteI don't get it either. :/
ReplyDeleteNor do I understand blacksmith Derpy, inside joke?
Been waiting for a Rainbow Dash vs SR-71 Blackbird picture! =D
ReplyDelete@MyBoyJ
ReplyDeleteWell yes, but not even what I assume is baby talk would exclude the and. I think it says "That's Luna, Zecora."
But back to my main point, I never asked what it meant, I said I didn't get it. I just don't see the context, you know? I mean, there's Luna and Zecora, but where does the baby talk come into play?
1, 7 and 17 :D

Valentine's Day... Brace yourselves, ship-fics are coming.
Loving #14. Might just be because I'm currently working on an AppleSparkle fic, though.
ReplyDelete#11 hoho I believe Derpy does the same all of us who played Skyrim did.
ReplyDelete@Bear its a Skyrim joke, the best way to level up your Smithing skill is to make tons of iron daggers, but in real life, if you just make Iron Daggers how would you know how to craft anything better?
ReplyDeleteAJ really should invest in a lanyard to go around her neck.
ReplyDeleteThat #12. My god, that #12.
ReplyDeleteDoes REA stand for
ReplyDeleteRoyal
Equestrian
Army?
I've been wondering for a while.
I want 11 on my wall.

ReplyDeleteMy best guess is that Seth is just expressing a childlike fondness for the first picture. It does have something of a whimsical fairytale quality to it. But I would have said DAS DERPY
#2: Makes Seth happy, cause of Spitfire
ReplyDelete#7: don't really like because of the pentagram (I'm baptist christian)
#11: Hey, a Skyrim joke that's actually funny.
#13: Take a look at me, and BUY ME MORE JEWELRY!!!!

Short but quality drawfriend today. Here's all my faves:
ReplyDelete#2) Always good to remember what you're fighting for.
#7) Magic comes in handy when you're too broke and homeless to go to the movies. Lion King's one of my favorites.

#13) Zecorapatra, completely love it. In jewels that place her all above it.
#17) A very dynamic shot of Tardis in motion; the good Doctor should be getting more spotlight.
Everything else was far above average too. Great job, everyone.
@SgtMuffin
ReplyDeleteAre you sure it's not airforce?
@#17, Haha, that doctor. xP
ReplyDelete#11 GJ DERPY following our advice :D
ReplyDeleteI always figured Twilight would be a blue mage because of her ability to learn so many different kinds of magic.
ReplyDeleteWasn't #2 already posted?
ReplyDelete#12 epic lilpip is epic
ReplyDelete@Sgt Muffin
ReplyDeleteOkay thanks. It's been bugging me since I saw the first one weeks ago.
#1 Love the art style, but shouldn't Luna's mane be a shadow of blue and not black?
ReplyDelete#4 Twi <3
#6 I suppose, there's some story behind this picture. A fic, maybe?
#11 Grinding at its finest. lol @ quality background
#12 Badass Lilpip is badass.
#17 Doctor, where have you lost Derpy?
#18 Great fic, great art.
The REA stuff was awesome for the first two pics, but now it's a little tired, especially since they're starting to look so similar.
ReplyDeleteApparently #6 is from Past Sins (Luna dammit, I need to read that freaking thing), but I love the use of light and dark in that one. Very dynamic.
@Haze
ReplyDeleteOh Luna! I nearly died @ 11.
I LOLOLOLOLed so hard I choked on my fries. The King's fries may be to die for, but the Queen of derp will actually try to kill you with a thousand tiny iron daggers!
I love 1, especially since it has Luna and Zecora in it.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of Zecora, I'm really digging #13 as well.
Yay, some awesome arts for me so bask in.
ReplyDelete#1 Wow, that's a really gorgeous pic. Colors, Shades, lighting, they're all really good. If that's what Equestria looks like, now I want to be there even more. I really like Luna in this. Her coloring looks so nice and smooth. Especially her mane. Yes, I really like her mane!

@Bear
ReplyDeleteIt's talking about skill grinding in Skyrim, hence the endless iron daggers.
12. Little Pip's gonna kill e'rybody.
ReplyDelete2) I still haven't figured out what REA means.
ReplyDelete…Royal Equestrian Army. 'Bout time I figured that out! …Am I right?
3) This would make a great bookmark.
#6 for those wondering thats nyx from the fic "past sins" and the picture it self looks amazing!
ReplyDeletewow, these are great!
ReplyDeleteI really like #6, Nyx looks fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI really needed this today. I'm not going to comment on any individual pieces per my usual practice as I've had a terrible headache all day, but I did enjoy looking at them all. Thank you, everypony, for sharing.
ReplyDeleteShort Drawfriend today... Let's get to it.
ReplyDelete1) Beautiful work. I love these kinds of scenes with full background and various details to look at. I don't know what Angel is up to, but I don't trust that bunny one bit. I still need to see a scene with Rarity, Zecora, Luna and the Mayor all together. We came so close with Luna Eclipsed.
2) It's amazing how much a little context shift can make. Spitfire is pretty awesome... I'm convinced Dash has a way to go to match her.
3) What a gorgeous Luna image. Just beautifully done.
4) A very cute Twilight in an original style. I like it.
5) Dash is looking pretty svelte and epic. I always like Cloudsdale as a background too.
6) Nyx needs to take better care of reading material! Still, that's a truly impressive painting and very dynamic. I wonder if people will eventually start giving her star-field hair like Luna and NNM.
7) Trixie grows in power. Soon she shall have her revenge. Soon.
8) Twilight's hat has nothing on Trixie's. Needs some stars or something. I'm sure Rarity could spice it up some.
9) See? She knows how to do it. Love the giant feather.
10) I know it says she's a monk, but I'm getting some Olivia Newton John vibes from the headband. Either way would be intimidating from a crazy pink pony, I suppose.
11) Derpy apparently makes a hell of an iron dagger. I haven't played Skyrim, but I recall spending a lot of time forging things in Fable... until I realized how much easier it is to earn money bartending.
12) Wow. Apparently dual-wielding is for noobs.
13) Cool! A fancy looking Zecora... Now I totally want Rarity to design something for her to wear to a royal function in Canterlot.
14) This is exactly the kind of "shipping/friendshipping" image that I think Jody was talking about yesterday. It's cute, and you're welcome to read as much into it individually as you like. I quite like this one.
15) Heh... I like the symbols on the apple... what a nice gift from Applebloom.
16) That's got to be a serious wind to shake that hat off of her head. I think the brim has a deathgrip on her, usually. Nicely rendered.
17) Yikes! Whatever is happening to Rarity does not look healthy at all. Pretty great, dramatic image of the Doctor and Tardis giving the Ponies a ride, though!
18) Proof that the Blackbird is obsolete. And that Dash is awesome. Great image!
19) It's not a drawfriend without some insanely cute Fluttershy.
20) Awww... Scootalove. I like the wing scribbles quite a bit. Lovely portrait.
You know, this was indeed a short one but it was overloaded with charm. Excellent job, all of your supremely talented artists... Thanks for sharing! And as always, thanks to Seth and the gang for putting these together.
#1 is amazing
ReplyDelete#2 is kind of late. Love #15.
ReplyDelete#18, good job Lord.

ReplyDelete#6
I am all over #8.
ReplyDeleteDat Zecora, in number WHATEVER, there's a rupe from Zelda on there I think. It's #13.
ReplyDeleteOther stuff was nice. :3
@Eddmario
ReplyDelete#2 is, I believe, a new image. It's similar to a prior REA Spitfire pin-up that had a much more suggestive slogan, though, which made it a little too saucy for use on the front page.
Well I have no idea why everypony wants to call me "woona" I swear I will find a way to get back at Tia for using that nickname in front of so many ponies.
ReplyDelete@Nightmare Moon AAAAAAAUUUUGGGGGHHHHHH WHYYYYYYY ARE YOU BAAAAAAACK!!!!! I thought the elements were enough, why, Why, WHY! GETAWAYGETAWAYGETAWAY I DON'T WANT TO BE STUCK ON MY MOON AGAAAAIINNNN!!!!!!! CELLYYYYYYY GET IN HERE!!!!!!!
Dawwwww fluttershy....
ReplyDeleteSeems oddly short after that huge december draw off post.
ReplyDelete#17 is my favourite of this batch.
#12
ReplyDeleteOnce there was a badass little pip.
She was so pissed that everyone died
The End
Seriously though. Best FO:E fanart by far
#12 how appropriate, I just finished FO:E this morning
ReplyDelete#11 I see what he did there.
ReplyDeleteVery nice drawfriend, I laughed at the iron dagger one.
ReplyDeleteFinally got my computer to behave for a few seconds. Time for some Drawfriend!
ReplyDelete#1 Wow. Just wow. No wonder this was the "headlining" image. It's just so well drawn.
#2 Going back to "familiar" ground, huh.
#3 Beautiful. Luna + aurora = WIN!
#4 So what kind of magic are you working today?
#5 Rainbow Dash in all her glory!
#6 So much to take in here. Nice.
#7 That's such a cool trick.
#8-10 Awesome blend of Final Fantasy and ponies. The looks fit them so well.
#11 That's just too funny. Derpy as a blacksmith. LOL
#12 Is this the point where I get on my knees and beg for mercy?
#13 Wow. Such a well designed outfit. Oh jeez, there goes my inner Rarity. LOL
#14 Looks like Twi hit the books a little too hard again.
#15 I don't know why, but I find this just adorable.
#16 I'd have been caught off guard too if my hat suddenly got blown away.
#17 What have you done this time, Doc?!!
#18 Oh, wow! I found my new background…well, better said, something new to add to my current cycle.
#19 So awesome!
#20 Can a pony ever be too cute? NEVER! Yay Scootaloo!
#1: Unusual selection of characters and setting for a drawing, but I like it; Luna's mane and tail look a little strange, though everything else is excellent.
ReplyDelete#2: A bit saucier than previous REA posters, but still good.
#3: Great Luna drawing as she flies through the night skies; this would make a nice bookmark.
#4: Unusual style for this Twilight Sparkle, but I like it.
#5: Very nice action shot of Rainbow Dash with Cloudsdale in the background.
#7: Good drawing of Trixie practicing her strength, illusions.
#9: Rarity wants to look her best even in dark, dank caves.
#10: The Pinkie Pie exercise plan: stand on your forelegs 10 times, and break the fourth wall 3 times a day.
#11: I like this silly Derpy drawing.
#13: Terrific Zecora fanart; I wonder if that's what she'd wear to the Gala.
#14: Cute scene with AJ and Twilight, regardless of whether you see it as shipping or frienshipping.
#15: This drawing's from about 3 months ago, but may not have appeared in a Drawfriend then; sweet drawing of 2/3 of the CMC.
#16: I think AJ may need a strap to keep that hat on her head. I really like this style of art.
#17: Epic action shot of the mane 6 with our favorite equine Time Lord; lots of fun details, but since my break's over, I can't comment any further on them.
#12 - EXTREME LILPIP IS AWESOME TO THE MAX OOOOOOOOH YEEEEEEEEAAAAAH SNAP INTO A SLIM JIM!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDelete#13 - Go head, Zecora. Ball out on these hoes.
#15 - HNNNNNNNG
#18 - I want a Dash-on-Earth fic where she flys through NYC.....and its post-9/11 so they scramble jets. :\
I told myself I would never clop to ponies, but why does Spitfire have to make it so difficult!
ReplyDeleteDat Spitfire
ReplyDelete#18
ReplyDeleteI bet Scootaloo is the one piloting that BlackBird!
while i hope im not the first person to ask this (but hopefully isnt the last), what is the REA????
ReplyDelete12 - This is why you don't piss off Littlepip!
ReplyDelete20 - This is too adorable for words!
#18 is now my wallpaper. The best part: to get it to fit to my liking, I had to make it exactly 20% bigger. True story.
ReplyDeleteHow many times has #2 been submitted now? Or is it just several near-identical images?
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is 15.
ReplyDeleteAnd how is Rainbow flying in an area of space with barely if any atmosphere? I can't even imagine what her kias is.
@Princess Luna
ReplyDeleteYou're kidding, right? I'm here to post, not to cause trouble...besides, getting hit with tge elements...twice is enough to knock sense into anypony.
If it hasn't been addressed, to all those that don't get the derpy blacksmith joke; it's poking at one of the best way to level your smithing skill in skyrim; which is by crafting iron daggers, tons of them.
ReplyDelete#6: OH MY GOD NYX
ReplyDelete#12: OH MY GOD LITTLEPIP WITH AN AUTOAXE
#6 - NYX LIVES!!!
ReplyDelete...that is all.
#12: HOLY CRAP LIL' PIP IS JUST AWESOME.
ReplyDelete18) NYAN NYAN NYAN NYAN NYAN
ReplyDelete#1 The detail! Great work.
ReplyDelete#6 That's Nyx I'm assuming, have never read that fic. Seems damn popular though. Anyway this piece of art is awesome, love the wings.
#7 That's a mighty fine spell you're practicing there Trixie.
#8-10 Love it, Pinkie made me laugh. Looks like she has some pretty wacky fighting style.
#12 Yea... Don't think anypony will be bothering you.
#13 Wow, awesome look for Zecora.
#14 Dawwww... All my <3
#16 Nooooo!
#17 I really have to watch Doctor Who sometime, heard a lot of good things about that show.
Sextuple-weilding Littlepip? Take that, Spartan 117.
ReplyDeleteDoctor Whooves IS AWESOME
ReplyDeleteNice that Zecora's getting some love.
ReplyDelete#19 and #20 D'AAWWW!
@Nightmare Moon
ReplyDeleteTotally LOLing at the chronic RPing Princess Luna. Yikes. Even Nightmare Moon needs the occasional hug! Dat new Luna is a funny Luna.
I have to say that 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 11, 12, and 17 were filled with unimaginable levels of win!
1, 3, 6, and 17 in particular were STELLAR!!! Luna's mane was stellar, space was stellar, 6... 6... hmmm stars in 6... Oh!!! I know! There are stars on Twilight's butt, therefore it is also stellar! LOLOL!
@Hrabia12
ReplyDeletePersonally, I hope we don't get a single buckin' picture here, much less twenty of them.
Oh, wait, that's not what you meant, is it...
@richfiles
ReplyDeleteHeh, I try not to do that in comments usually, but I will if someone does to me first, but I'm glad I made you laugh.
As for Nightmare, yes, she's tied with Luna for my second favorite pony.
lol, I STILL don't know what REA is
ReplyDelete@Mike
ReplyDeleteI thought it was Royal Equestria Army or something of that sort, but I could be wrong.
in source #18 The SR-71 Blackbird is the fastest aircraft that can be launched from the ground. They have planes that are a lot faster, but they must be launched in mid-air from a converted
ReplyDeleteB-52 bomber. In other words, Dashie has some serious competition. But don't worry she might be able to pull of the mach 15 speed of the x15.
See you in the sky!
@BornIn1142
ReplyDeleteBrian McPherson did a couple of "recruiting posters" featuring Spitfire, and Spitshy has followed with three more, of which #2 is the latest; they're similar enough that if you haven't seen one in a while, I can understand how you'd think the newest one is a repeat.
@Pegasus Rescue Brigade, @ChaosDX1, @Nimru, @Mike
REA = Royal Equestrian Army, yes.
I don't get it, why Luna and Zecora out of all characters.
ReplyDeleteWait dash... If you're above that blackbird then that must mean... You're in sPaaaaaaaaaace! How are breathing!? This is life changing!
ReplyDeleteAnd here we go!
ReplyDelete1. Now there's a pair you don't see everyday. I wouldn't mind seeing this two interact on the show a bit more, just because they're both fascinating but rarely get much screentime. In particular, I enjoy the use of colors and the feeling this piece has of being a quality painting I'd like to hang up on my wall.
2. I'm pretty sure this is a duplicate. Also, no, Spitfire, no matter how you act, I won't be joining the REA.
3. Seems to have some unnecessary blank space near the bottom, but other than that it's a great picture of Luna.
4. A wonderful picture of Twilight, though it's definitely a different take on the design than the traditional art style.
5. Yes! This is the majesty that should be Pegasus wings all day erry day.
6. I don't recognize the character or the setting...I see Twilight in the background, but the lack of context confuses me. Though that said, if the look on their faces and the shredded state of the book is any indication, something is seriously wrong...
7. That's a neat new trick, Trixie. I just hope you aren't planning on using them to attack anypony.
8. Twilight with a magician's hat looks cute.
9. Now, my first thought here was Carmen Sandirarity, but apparently she's supposed to be a red mage. Either way, it's a great look for our lovely lady.
10. Pinkie's workin' those hooves. Nice amusing action pose.
11. Well she's certainly produced a lot of daggers, at least, though how useful they are in terms of design for ponies, I'm not so sure...
12. I'm pretty sure this is supposed to be Littlepip, since that appears to be Little Machintosh she's holding, amongst other weaponry. As before, the Pipbuck is on the wrong leg, but otherwise it's a neat little action pose, although she might be trying to wield too many weapons at once.
13. Zecora looks lovely in this jewelery...although at first I thought one of them was supposed to be an Element of Harmony, something that sent up a red flag in my mind since that didn't seem to be quite right.
14. Twilight fell asleep on her books and Applejack is seeing to it that she sleeps well. D'awww.
15. A great sepia-tone sketch of two of the CMCs. Interesting how fascinated they are by the apple...I wonder why?
16. This problem is probably rather common for poor Applejack...must be much harder trying to wear hats as an Earth Pony, since you can't exactly use magic to catch it and you don't have hands.
17. Speaking of paintings I'd love to put on a wall...while there does seem to be something odd with Rarity's legs(she's clipping through the police box) it's a fantastic drawing. The use of color, the angle, the action poses, the way Pinkie is so calm while everyone else is scared out of their wits...it's perfect.
18. You go, Rainbow Dash! Outrace those human-made flying machines! Show us humans why we can't ever take the skies away from the Pegasi!
...I feel as though I'm biased in the wrong direction here...
19. Fluttershy is, as always, adorable.
20. Now THAT'S how you do a subtle drawing. Spectacular the way it engenders feelings in the viewer despite its simplicity. I especially adore the way the wings are merely drawn lines implying their presence.
It is probably wishful thinking, but I hope that #6 gets made into a a new Nyx fic.
ReplyDelete@Kyronea
ReplyDelete#6 features Nyx, the main character of a popular fan fiction named "Past Sins". Essentially, she's the product of a cult using a spell to try and resurrect Nightmare Moon independent from Luna. The spell gets interrupted, and she comes into the world as a young filly with no memories of her past self. Twilight is the one to find her and take her in, keeping her origin a secret for fear of what would happen to her if it was thought that Nightmare Moon had been reborn.
@Harwick
ReplyDeleteYou know, the fact that it uses my second most favorite pony...kinda of makes me want to read it even more.
Torn between #17 and #18... I'm a massive fan of The Doctor (plus the pic is just awesome), but #18 is just gorgeous.
ReplyDelete#6
ReplyDeleteNyx....What have you been doing?
Love #12, Fallout Equestria is an amazing Fangic.
ReplyDeleteAnd for those who don't get 11, it's a running joke on how easy blacksmithing is in Skyrim. Since all items give the same amount of XP (bug or really bad game design), Derpy is capable of crafting the most basic level item in the game and get to master blacksmith easy peasy, lemon squeezy.
@Kyronea
ReplyDeletesorry for PipBuck((
*takes a deep breath*
ReplyDeleteMmmmm, smell that? That's the smell of high quality art. I've been missing that as of late. I'll have to get back to the drawfriend and away from everything else.
17 Is my favorite. I set it as my wallpaper on all 3 of my computers. Ponify ALL the electronics!
ReplyDelete12 is my cell background
ReplyDelete#18 "Four and Twenty Blackbirds baked in a pie..." I'm cheering for Dainty Dish in that one D: sorry Dash!
ReplyDeleteNevermind that winged flight in outerspace is impossible. You're pretty much constantly at stall speed. The Blackbird has the advantage of its massive ramjets and relatively short wings. It's the only jet fighter throughout history capable of outrunning a missile.
ReplyDeleteGummi's eyes terrify me....

ReplyDeleteLuna's hair looks a bit weird in the first picture, then again, maybe her hair is a diffrent colour in the daytime.
ReplyDeleteplease dont tell me that is rainbow flying with a black bird YOU KNOW ME AND MY AERODYNAMICS GUYS!
ReplyDelete@Shutterspeed
ReplyDeleteYou and me both!
A sequel... >:D
Either way, I have a new backdrop!
Nyx Nyx Nyx Nyx XD
