Well that is a wrap for our first Makeup Day everyone! Pretty impressive numbers for our first one of this NATG meaning a lot of you got caught up, jumped into the event in earnest to participate for the rest of it, or decided to try some prompts again. Now it's time to tackle our regularly scheduled prompts again so I hope you're ready!
For our first Makeup Day we managed to bring in 88 ponies to bring our total up to 1262 ponies in total! Keep it up my friends.
Our header today not only served to highlight one of our many artists participating in this year's event but is a bit of a prelude to what I want you all to draw today. For the past ten days or so many of you have been drawing just ponies, getting used to their anatomy, how they move, their expressions and throwing them into situations you think work for them. Of course, being a well rounded artist means being able to draw more than one species of creature so I'm going to be poking you out of your possible comfort zone tonight with something a little different.
What is that you may ask? Well tonight I'd like you guys to Draw a pony as another species (Draw a MLP species other than an equine) / Draw a pony starting a new life.
As always our submitter is here.
Remember, our compiler is up a few hours even after this post goes up so feel free to submit your submission to our submitter!
Also, if you are late submitting and the submitter is closed, don't just throw your pic into the next day's submitter. Wait for a Makeup Day to submit!
Attention Discord Users:
For those of you with Discord we are really pulling out all the stops this year as we have a channel on EqD's official Discord server called #artist-training-ground for you to hang out in with your fellow artists during the event. You can join our Discord server here.
Check on after the break for today's gallery!

10 The Price of Prodigy - Justin K
"Draw a pony following their hopes and dreams."
What is a nightmare, but a terrifyingly immersive dream?
(This is a final touchup of my entry from Day 5, which I failed to complete in time)

35 Pinkie's reaction to Mad Magazine ending - Daimando
Note: I was gonna take a break after the Lyra/Bon Bon drawing, but I had to sketch this quick drawing up, especially after I found out that Mad Magazine was ending its run and switching to Reruns for future magazines. Furthermore, it will be disappearing from news stands across the world.
Truly, the end of an era
Mad Magazine: 1952-2019.

Submission for Day 3: "Draw a pony in need of schooling".
Stendhal thought it would be fun to teach basic concepts to his son.
Stendhal was wrong.

43 EQD NATG day 10(?) - snezhok42
Redid day 1 because what I originally did was a mess.
I mean, this is a mess too, but a bit less so.
I hope, at least.

I believe this pony is in need or guidance or schooling. She needs to get schooled that quicksand ain't no joke. :p

77 Entrapment - Frith
This is for the sneaky pony prompt from Monday. I was a wee bit sore from mowing the lawn so I slept through the deadline. *First World problems! Harsh! Feel my pain* If anypony was up to no good, it was Applebloom harassing shoppers and trying to entrap them into buying apples they had not planned on getting. After nine years of these NATG's plus a few other sketches here and there, I think I'm getting closer to getting the ponies on-model, as long as I don't try for anything too creative.

Makeup for day 8.
I was going to do something for day 4 as well, but then I thought of something that needed a bit more time than I had; I'll do it on the next makeup day.
