Newbie Artist Training Grounds IX: Day 5
by Calpain
It's always hard to pick a header for the NATG posts but as I was quickly scrolling through entries these haunting eyes just made me freeze. If that isn't a broken pony then I have no idea what one looks like. I want to particularly congratulate you all on how well you all did with what could be interpreted as a very emotional prompt and your portrayals of raw emotion whether it was anger, sadness, frustration or, well, being broken.
A tough world we've put our ponies into right off the bat, haven't we? In total we managed to put 137 ponies through all sorts of trouble, bringing our grand total up to 618 ponies! Well done everyone, we'll be crossing that 1000 picture mark soon!
So, sometimes as I like to do here on the NATG is I like to give themes I feel are contrasts to the day before, to let you guys explore both ends of the spectrum. While we had ponies that were at their breaking point and the end of their rope, today I would like you guys to draw something a bit more optimistic: Draw a pony snatching victory from the jaws of defeat / Draw a pony following their hopes and dreams!
As usual, our submitter can be found 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!

As some of you have noticed while wandering around the ponynet, screencaps of an unreleased episode have started to sneak into twitter feeds and instagram timelines all over the place. It's looking like China has released the 14th episode early, long before however many months this hiatus will last.
As always, be wary if you want to avoid spoilers. They will be everywhere now.
Thanks to Stone Prophet, Sindral, and everyone else for the heads up.

Rotten Tomatoes has popped up a new editorial covering some of the best of the best animation of the last century. Everything from the classics like Scooby Doo to the newer stuff have a spot on it if they are any kind of good. Anime is also included, so the pool is pretty huge on what they are pulling from.
Pony pulled in at the #64 slot. It doesn't seem to go in any kind of specific order. You can find the full list over here. -

A new compilation album just dropped in the community, so it's time to go to that Bandcamp page and download the album and listen to it like "this is what our big and creative community is doing!!" Many talented pony musicians contributed with really stellar tracks (ok ok I stop), with one of them playing at Sweet Apple Acres' praised Cider Party right now. Many of the tracks have been uploaded individually on YouTube by their respective creators already, and I recommend going to every of these lovely musicians' channels and subbing to them and telling them how much you appreciate what they do! In the meantime, go grab this amazing compilation album from Bandcamp here and let us partake in blissful pony tunes together!
