Now I might just be biased as I really love space stuff, but I feel that whenever we have a space prompt for the ATG the creativity of you guys goes into overdrive. It makes sense though, space isn't something our ponies are usually accustomed to so you can be a bit more creative with the situations.
As such you all created 124 ponies spacing out in some way bringing us up to 2246 ponies in total! Nicely done everyone!
For our next prompt I'm borrowing a popular one that Phoe started a long time ago and that I've continued with the ATG ever since taking over. As we're half-way through the ATG just about I figured it would be a nice treat for all of you while still getting a chance to be creative. For today I'd like you to Draw a pony crossing over with your favorite game, book, ect / Draw a pony putting on a show.
As usual our submitter is here.
We also have a new Makeup Day submitter!
Good luck everyone!

This is statistically the third most likely thing to happen to Patch, but that's only because Equestria doesn't have automobiles.

Crux is visible in the top left, but Orion got smothered by the darkness, because I hadn't yet figured out that I needed to leave bigger clear spots for stars.

33 MULTI PROMPT DRIFTING! - Moonatik
I missed the last few days of ATG 2018 so I drew the prompts I missed in one big go, those being:
Draw a pony mingling / Draw a pony being a social butterfly.
Draw a pony family / Draw a pony leaving the nest.
Draw a pony in space / Draw a pony exploring the final frontier.

I got inspired by this very cute Pinkie Pie animated emoticon someone linked on Discord and I decided to draw it as today's prompt!
I don't know who's behind the original animation/gif, sadly, otherwise I'd credit them for the pinkie pie expression I was inspired from!

In the not too distant future, way down in Void 13

They hired a gent by the name of Brew--a boring stallion, with no life, too
Their experiment needed a good test case
So they conked him on the noggin, teleported him to space...

Boulder would love to follow the prompt in exploring space. It's full of giant floating rocks, so Maud Pie would totally be down for that.
Unfortunately, she isn't too thrilled with this idea.

56 Moonstuck - Bombom13
Moonstuck was one of the first webcomics I ever read, so I figured I'd have a go at drawing the characters. Also, drawing it now gives me an excuse to try my hand both at grayscale and at using different artistic styles.
I strongly recommend anyone to read it if they missed it's run!

Well what do you know, I actually finish a prompt early for once lol x3;; It's pretty self-exclamatory so no story for this one. :3
This one is another redraw from the big makeup pic I made from last year with Ebony discovering a new planet thanks to one of the books she read, and I've got to say I LOVE this version a LOT better than the one I first did! :3

Doctor Whooves is taking a break to look out at the stars as he heads off to his next adventure in the TARDIS!
This one kind of exploded in size. When I started I wasn̢۪t planning on using the whole page, but that̢۪s what I ended up doing. The TARDIS has a lot of straight lines. Drawing straight lines free-hand is no fun.

80 PONIES IN SPACE!! - Benjamin Eric Berlin
Probably the longest I've spent on any one single drawing for the ATG, estimating around 6-8 hours. This drawing was inspired by the Muppet Show's "Pigs in Space" comedic sketch. Hope everyone enjoys. I have a few other ideas I plan on submitting through the Makeup day submitter. As usual, I will look forward to hearing what everycreature thinks in the comments here and on my Deviant Art page.

83 Walking on the Moon - Frith
Giant steps are what Luna takes, listening to her Pony Walkmare on the moon. I wanted an image of Princess Luna skipping along to the beat which is why the right fore is in the air. Sauntering along thus in the low gravity, she should be rocking left and right as she goes.
