Now that is a bug horse really lost in thought. I wonder what she could possibly trying to ponder through in her head? Just the look on her face shows how seriously she is taking this. And I know it isn't just bug horses that get lost in thought as I've seen plenty of you often wonder what exactly you'll draw for each of these prompts, let's just hope it isn't as nervewracking as this.
Another day means even more ponies for the pile everyone! Tonight we brought in 111 ponies which brings our total up to 1877 ponies! Nice work everyone!
For tonight's prompt we're going to be focusing on the darker side of Equestria. Usually I like to dedicate one prompt to more nefarious schemes and conniving ponies so for tonight I would like you all to Draw a pony with a dark side / Draw a pony that’s bad to the bone! After all, we know Equestria isn't all sunshine and rainbows, right?

5 Aquaberry's Artist Block - EbonyCrystal1986
(This OC belongs to a really good friend of mine on dA, used with permission of course! :3)
Aquaberry Paintbrush just couldn't figure it out. She just got a new drawing tablet, a new laptop after her old one finally kicked the bucket after so many years of good service, even a new chair so she could be comfortable while drawing, but there was a problem: she couldn't think of ANYTHING good TO draw! She thought and thought and thought, but nothing came to mind like it usually does right away...it was right then, she knew, she had an art block! Hopefully she can snap out of this one soon...

6 Equestria Daily Artist Training Grounds 2020 12a - Meto30
Prompt 12 is "Pony lost in thought", and I have Sunset here staring at the horizon thinking about stuff, pondering the issues facing her. This response, like the previous one, is in two pages, and I plan to have most responses up to prompt 20 be in two pages. On the first page I feature the Harley-Davidson Fat Boy (2020 model) again, as a way for me to practice drawing machines. Since drawing the Fat Bot was so much fun, I want to do an extensive study featuring the Rainbooms, the Dazzlings, and motorcycles.

22 Your imagination through books - Daimando
It's about time I bring Filly Twilight Sparkle into the fray. And to best do so, we tap into what she enjoys the most: Books. When he opens one up and glances at the words, her mind goes into a deep thought that no other pony can understand, not even Princess Celestia. It's like a child that is absorbed into a great animated movie. Once you pick it up, you can't put it down.

28 Lab Daydreaming - Termyotter
Pony with a wild imagination / pony lost in thought: OK, how about mild imagination lost in thought.
"Occupational Safety called. They wanted to know why you didn't file a report about 'The Incident' in the lab."
"There was an incident? In this lab? This one here?"
"You didn't wonder why three ponies didn't come in today? No question about the burns on my hooves?"
"How do you burn your hooves?"
"It's easier than you think."

75 Colors of Inspiration - Tigerett
I found the concept of a "wild imagination" hard to convey, so I partially just let mine do what it wanted (the other part is a long-winded musing on the concept of imagination in general that definitely doesn't fit in this small blurb).

I did lost in thought for this one. This is featuring AutinBrony's characters Rainsong and her best dragon buddy Bitey! I love these two together so much. I could see them either remaining friends or eventually becoming a couple. Either way they're heckin' cute.
What better way to lose your train of thought than to just lay there in the grass and watch clouds?

Getting back into it after a week off. I lost my dog that I've been with since I was a kid, and I've been tryin to motivate myself to draw again, and tonight I finally got around to it. Could have done better on the arm, but I think I did alright for my first time drawing anything humanoid!
