Sometimes our actions are just enough to give grey hairs to someone else. We can only hope that such things are few and between lest we become known for our failures and flaws. The best we can do is move on, learn from our mistakes and try to be better going forward. Not only for ourselves but for everyone we care about.
I know what isn't flawed though and that is the fact we brought in 46 ponies today which now brings our total to 870 ponies! We're so close to those four-digit numbers! Keep up the good work everyone!
Now that we are halfway through the NATG, tonight's prompt is a special one! It's one that Phoe, who started the NATG, started a long time ago before I took over and is one I love to use every year. We all have our own interests outside of pony, especially when it comes to other media and this is a great chance for you to show off what you love because today I'd like you to Draw a ponyfied version of your favorite book, game, etc / Draw a pony from another world.

The next one will be Twilight, that was about to fail the exam if the rainboom didn't happened. Do you think Princess Celestia choose her students only by their names ?

My two OCs, future Kayla Goldenwing and Harmony casually walking together. Kayla is maybe past her prime time to being a capable fighter and partial acrobatic flyer, but she's still a loving mother to care for her daughter, Harmony.

25 Falling From Grace - Frith
Who is Grace and why was the pony riding her? Y'know, falling out of the saddle was particularly harsh for Christopher Reeve. Fortunately for our pink pone, Grace is smol and she's got a talent for first aid. And now, deeep gravely voice: *In a world where everypony wears saddles, who will ride the riders? Coming soon to a theater near you.* I used watercolor pencils and watercolours, some of them glittery.

This one's a flashback to Cookie's younger days, when she was still apprenticed to Knick Knack, the former owner of Curios. Mentors can receive guidance from their students just as much as their students can receive it from them. =)

You don't have to be old to be out of your prime--you just have to not have played in a while! Poor Emerald got dunked on. Not too much new here, but I did attempt to draw a couch and game controllers. "Before a downfall the heart is haughty, but humility comes before honor" (Proverbs 18:12 NIV).

34 Math Burn - Termyotter
Sooo, typically past the 20's is sort of past prime physical age for people, but she's two years past her last mathematically prime year, 31. I don't know what her age is, but its supposed to be someone trolling her, so they probably will aim higher. Hey, if she's going to paint an equals sign on her flank, then I think bad math jokes are fair game!

What was Star Swirl, the mage who for years had led the greatest heroes of Equestria and its protection, thinking when he had been so quickly defeated, with Tirek not having needed an iota of cleverness or surprise, underhoofed moves to defeat him? Probably just 'ouch' given the immediacy of the beat down :<

Inspired by "Copa rota" (specifically, the cover by Los Rodriguez). I've listened to that song over and over while drawing for this challenge, so I suppose it was only a matter of time until it inspired me with all of its vivid imagery.
