It's good to take a breather sometimes to help yourself rest or just get caught up on things you need or want to get done. Now that our first Makeup Day is over I am hoping everyone is feeling refreshed or, at the very least, feeling caught up and ready to tackle the next ten prompts!
Before we get to that time for the pony count! Tonight we managed to bring in 59 ponies which now brings us up to 663 ponies in total!
Now that we are all recharged or caught up I hope you are all ready to dive right back into the NATG with gusto! Today's prompt is an inspiration from that can do spirit as I would like you to Draw a pony reaching for the stars / Draw a pony willing to stop at nothing.

An AU piece where Campfire Glow has had enough of Dr. Atmosphere's lax safety standards in the Rainbow Factory. Someone could get hurt... (Inspiration taken from artist Threetwotwo32232's "OSHA lime": https://www.deviantart.com/threetwo.....lime-956415030)

14 NATG XIV Day 10 - "I Can't Stay Here" - Campfire Glow
Adopting the pony persona named Sugar Song was easy for Corium. A few days passing into Canterlot, collect love, leave. But after making friends, trying to keep up the facade takes a lot out of anyling that wants to stay in one place for a long time and not be discovered.

22 Day 2: Tai's Drawing Comes to Life! - Taichi
Tai was not sure how it happened, but his drawing of a unicorn came to life! Perhaps it was that mysterious art shop owned by a little unicorn mare who sold him some enchanted art supplies?

23 Day 3: Tiptoe Past Amber - Taichi
Amber is feeling frisky and lurks under her blanket nest at the foot of the stairs waiting for anyone to walk past her so she can leap out and bap them with her paw. Tai know he has little chance of getting away un-bapped, but attempts to tiptoe past her up the stairs anyway.

25 Day 6: Stardust's Pearl of Wisdom - Taichi
Stardust offers a pearl of wisdom that anything easy should include an actual piece of cake as a reward. Princess Celestia would most likely agree with her, too.

33 Shrouded - Frith
For Day 5, a pony shrouded in mystery. I used ZeFrank's Scribbler (downloaded) in Media Player Classic Home Cinema and then flipped the result to a negative image. If you wanted to get a copy of ZeFrank's Scribbler, it looks like it's gone now.

This was completely rushed and doesn't look good in my opinion. I like Lyra's horn design though.

43 "The Tempter" - Emerald Light
Looks pretty harmless, huh? This is for Prompt #1: Pony standing/standing his ground. "Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak" (Matthew 26:41).

44 "Reading of Home" - Emerald Light
Drawing from the well! I decided to go faceless with this one, because I liked the more symbolic look when paired with the "house." "But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables Him to bring everything under His control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like His glorious body" (Philippians 3:20-21 NIV).

45 13 Silver Dollars - SOENJAY
I get most of my inspiration from song lyrics. This one is my favorite song by the Canadian country artist Colter Wall. Everything about this situation screams "Mustang" but since Desert canonically wears a stetson, he gets to be the one drunk in a snowbank. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4getBk1onkY

52 Mill Work - Frith
For the Day 9 task, a pony with a crummy job. Walking all day around and round a mill stone to grind grain, while blindfolded, would be about the crummiest job a pony could get. Could be worse, you could be on fire.
