You know, in this case, sometimes working for Peanuts isn't such a bad thing. More importantly, I'm happy that more than one of you came up with this reference for today. You make an old pony proud.
With Day 9 out of the way we managed to bring in another 59 ponies which brings us up to 552 ponies in total as we finish a third of the NATG! Keep up the pace everyone, I know we're all getting a little tired, but we can make it.
Now that it has been 10 days into the NATG with your first Makeup Day being tomorrow, I really hope that you all are starting to settle in and are starting to feel a bit more comfortable drawing on a regular basis. So far the prompts have been a bit abstract and can take a bit of time to wrap your head around so as we wind down to our first Makeup Day how about something a bit more simple as I ask you to Draw a pony feeling out of place / Draw a pony feeling right at home.

Even if it's a job we enjoy and wouldn't trade for another, we all have those 'ugh' days that leave us feeling drained by the end.

Just some pony having a bad day at the coffee house. Sorry if the drawing kind of ripped a little, just trying to maintain my new watercolor art style.

Sprout finds himself becoming the mascot for a cheesy space-themed milkshake place while a pair of children gaze (gawk?) at him. How humiliating. (The kids are OCs of mine; Sugar Cookie is the pegasus and Chamomile is the unicorn.)

Here's a drawing for Prompt #9, Draw a pony working for peanuts / Draw a pony working a crummy job In this artwork, it's always best not to pissed off somepony, even if they're a former raider. When Heartbeat's small quest went kinda wrong and turned out to be a scam, let's just say she handled the situation of killing two birds with one stone moment.. Heres the Derpibooru version: https://derpibooru.org/images/3380501

49 Learning is Work - Termyotter
Sometimes mentors push a bit too much on their students. Maybe you can get away with it as head of state, but the rest may have to pay up.:) Twilight: Pay you? But Princess Celestia never paid me for all those times... Starlight: Not MY problem. Maybe that's why she gave you the whole alicorn package. Twilight: I'm sure what you learn... Starlight: Unless you got an extra pair of wings there, I think I'll be taking the bits.

Even working for peanuts, there are ways to be content! This pose is a new one for me, and I am happy that the forelegs turned out well. Nothing super ambitious this time, though. "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving" (Colossians 3:23-24 NIV).

The dreaded escort quest. They take up time, they're too long for little effort needed. No one likes them, especially when they involve multiple trips back to back. But you'll always get saddled with one sooner or later if you're the adventurer type.
