They're long gone now, though.

Being able to go to your happy place or to find a way to clear your head is just as important for artists as it is for the rest of us. In an age where we are looking out more and more for our mental health, it is important to take care of yourself and know when back away from our work and stressors and take some time for ourselves.As for our happy, relaxing ponies, we managed to get 51 ponies wrangled up today which now brings us to 1521 ponies in total! We finally broke the 1500 mark, everyone! Excellent job!Speaking of taking care of ourselves, I know you are all feeling pretty tired at this point. I am too, it takes a bit out of you hoping the prompts are good enough and having your schedule revolve around a certain time every single day. But we are in the home stretch with less than a week to go and I believe that of you can make it! So for today, to let us vent a little about how tired we all are, I'd like you Draw a pony feeling drained / Draw a pony in need of a recharge.As always you can find the submitter here.

Description:Princess Cadance has missed a lot after moving to the frozen North and becoming the ruler of the New Crystal Empire. She misses the sunshine and the birds, sure, but what she misses the most is the rain. Having so many fond memories of rainy days, and not having any rain within the kingdom's ecosystem, Cadance decides to head for Canterlot when she hears they are expecting a storm. Cadance heads off to Equestria's capital, ready to experience something she has not felt in a long time...

Never tried pineapple on pizza, but maybe I should just to see what all of the fuss is about. Maybe I shouldn't risk it though if it makes me out to be pure evil, heh.Another night and that means we have some more ponies for you tonight! We managed to bring in 50 ponies which now brings us to 1470 ponies in total! Nice work everyone!We've had villainous ponies, secrets being uncovered, and deals being done under the table the past couple of days so how about something a little more lighthearted before we wrap up the NATG for the year? We don't have all that many days left so lets try a more peaceful prompt by having you all Draw a pony finding their happy place / Draw a clearing their mind.As always you can find the submitter here.

Author: DafaddahDescription: To his great embarrassment, an IT manager has unexpected visitors pop-in on an internal company conference call: Twilight Sparkle and Pinkie Pie. The call does NOT go as planned, and of course, it’s his fault. Then he finds out why he is being contacted, and Twilight makes a request he simply cannot refuse.

Some things are never meant to be discovered, but fate has us stumble upon them anyway. We just have to be sure we're ready to deal with the consequences if we decide to dig deeper.As for today's totals, we managed to bring in a lovely 46 ponies which now brings us up to 1420 ponies in total. Just five more days everyone! Let's keep pushing forward!Yesterday I said we haven't had many shady prompts and tonight I intend to go a few shades darker because while FiM is a show about friendship and harmony, there are still villains in the show. While it is nice to practice good characters, it's also good to expand your skills by allowing you to practice some villainy! So for today I want you to try and Draw a pony choosing the lesser of two evils / Draw a pony rotten to the core.As always you can find the submitter here.

Greetings one and all!
Trinary here, stepping in as the new comic reviewer for Equestria Daily at the behest of my bud, Silver Quill. As he previously announced, he’s stepping back from doing the official comic reviews here on EQD in favor of refocusing on more regular and creative efforts. He leaves me with some mighty large hooves to fill and I hope that I can do right by the people who come to read these reviews for his insights, his humor, and his puns. I can only try to do my best to deliver my own insights and humor. Puns will probably be used more sparingly from here on out (sorry but not sorry, puns belong to Silver).
Today we’re here to look at Maretime Mysteries #1, the start of a new G5 four-issue miniseries from IDW. What’s the mystery? Well, let’s find out!op 12:00 PM

Author: Lucky SevenDescription: Starlight Glimmer has succeeded. Twilight Sparkle and her friends never met. Their influence on Equestria never came to pass.
But is victory truly worth earning if the future you end up with is coming apart at the seams? Starlight isn't so sure anymore.
After all, it's hard to be sure of anything without a cutie mark to guide you.

Well, another plus to the NATG is that at the very least it won't unravel reality thanks to a broken causality event. The likelihood is very low, as far as I know. Our artists haven't yet been able to completely break the universe.What isn't broken is the number of ponies we brought in for today! Tonight we managed 49 ponies which brings our running total up to 1374 ponies! Nice work my friends, let's keep pushing towards the finish!While we are on the topic of Pinkie breaking the universe, I find that tonight's prompt is somewhat related to a special episode of FiM! Our ponies have their secrets and secret dealings, and while we had ponies shrouded in mystery earlier in the event, we never were able to uncover anything about them. So I feel for tonight it would be fun to Draw a pony stumbling on a secret / Draw a pony making a deal under the table.As always you can find the submitter here.
