Sometimes we like to be brave and sometimes we like to be a little bit cautious, especially when we are trying something new. Whether you are a veteran trying out some new technique or a newbie who is trying art for the first time, it can be a bit frustrating and scary to get started. Hopefully over the course of the NATG those fears will melt away and you'll all be more gung-ho diving into new challenges!
As for today, we managed to bring in a total of 69 ponies which now brings us up to 201 ponies in total. Not too bad for a few days worth of work!
For today's prompt, we have all tried something to find out it led us nowhere or been put into a tough situation with barely a way out. An occurrence that can happen when you have a 24 hour deadline and things go wrong at just the wrong time. So for today's prompt I'd like you to Draw a pony on a wild goose chase / Draw a pony stuck between a rock and a hard place.

This is my first time drawing Anthro ponies, and I will need lots of improvement drawing them. But it looks good for a first attempt at anthros.

13 NATG 2024 day 3 - Draw a Pony throwing caution to the wind / tiphoofing around danger - C_||_R
Lyra really wanted that ticket, no matter the danger of being the first tester of an experimental spell! (just in case my cursive is too garglemeshed to read) Twilight: "Thanks again, Lyra! I really appreciate you helping me test this cloudwalking spell!" As part of my attempt of bringing awareness regarding just how many brony sites there are out there (and conversely bringing awareness to other sites of EqD’s NATG), today I posted my drawing to MLPForums /)

Thankfully, not every hidden treasure has to be rigged to release a death trap if it's taken away, but better safe than sorry, right?

26 A Peaceful Place - Mintwhistle
Sunny leaps across a dangerous spike pit in a crystal cavern. Sure, she could just use her alicorn powers, but where's the fun in that? (The title is a reference to an old, unofficial name for the "Crystal Dungeons" track from Kirby's Return to Dream Land.)

37 Tiptoeing Through the Tulips - Frith
They're horses! They walk on their nails! They're always tiptoeing! Now, you'll be telling me, tulips aren't dangerous. But look that pony with the hoe, galloping this way with bared teeth, and tell me again that tulips aren't dangerous.

43 Donkey Oatey arrives to stop Tirek! - Palmetto Prêt
Donkey Oatey is always willing to lend a hoof to help ponies as is befitting a knight. If only his large helmet didn't send him blindly all around Equestria until finding his foe (and usually running head first into the first object that looks like it.)

55 Book Faire 2: Pyrotechnic Boogaloo - Termyotter
So, years ago I had these two go wild at a book faire. So, I thought about both being much older, in positions of power, and what throwing caution to the wind might mean then. Like scheduling two fairs together to make a really exciting one. It's going to be awesome. Set the town on fire!

Fun Fact, conventional deer crossing signs don't really help either deer or people, since the danger the signs warn of is largely hypothetical. Besides, deer will just go wherever.

The original idea was for Derpy to be surrounded and slowly working her way through mouse traps. The idea grew the more I thought about it.

67 Spelunker - SkulltanEve
This is my most ambitious drawing yet. If you haven't noticed, it's heavily inspired by Spelunky HD—I started playing it again recently, which brought back some of my disappointment with Spelunky 2 (it's a great game, but can't compare to the original imo).

The party encounters the classic first RPG encounter, slimes! While they are easy to deal with, you traditionally need weapons to do so. Without equipment, the party must navigate around this field of slime ponies and avoid waking any on their way to town.
