Cheeshee

Cheeshee

A patron reward for Caerdwyn. This is Cheeshee. She's an NPC in our 5th Edition D&D game. She's obviously a kobold but more important she's a Divine Soul sorcerer. She's bailed out our party on several occasions, and she brought Cedric back when he perished at the hands of an assassin.  <...

A little talk

A little talk

 Princess Luna stared down at her student in my Equestria dreamscape. She did not look pleased with her pupil. Sweetie Bell and Scootaloo quickly bowed to the co-ruler of Equestria but beyond that they made no effort to draw attention to their presence in Applebloom’s dream.

   
  Applebloom swallowed and bowed to. “Ah, Princess Luna! What ah, um, unexpect...

Welcome to the Stable

Welcome to the Stable

Amber sat on the mattress in his new quarters in the Stable and pondered his change of fortune. 

      A couple of days ago the pony-dragon hybrid had been fishing for something that wouldn't eat him instead in wastelands. The sound of nearby gunfire had drawn him to what was obviously the aftermath of a raider ambush. Not an uncommon thing out here, but...

Yer going down!

Yer going down!

 Note. As I said in the previous post, the art for this was actually drawn a few years ago as quick notes after having the dream. The style is different from my current which more accurately portrays how ponies appear in my Equestria dreamscape.

“Get out of my dream ya vermin!” Screamed Applebloom as she threw herself at the mimic in my Equestria dreamscape. The ...

Back from the gym

Twilight pulled the convertible coupe into the driveway and parked it. Grabbing the the gym bag with her dirty gym clothes and racquet in it from the passenger seat she opened the door and exited the vehicle. Pausing to spread her wings in a slow stretching exercise.

Get behind me!

Get behind me!

Note. You may notice that the art style is slightly different on this posting and the next. That's because I actually did these drawings several years ago when I still learning how correctly portray what ponies look like in my dreamscape. I did them as visual notes after woke up from the dream.

 Applebloom was rather proud of herself in my Equestria dreamscape. Her l...

An image from last night's anthropomorphic MLP dreamscape that figured I'd draw up today for folks today. 

         Autumn Blaze sat on the edge of the bed swinging her lower legs back and forth absentmindedly. Applejack had been gone for about fifteen minutes. The mare had gone into the the bathroom muttering something about wanting to sh...

The Queen Crabapple

The Queen Crabapple

 Scootaloo stood in the doorway of the Cutie Mark Crusaders Clubhouse in my Equestria dreamscape. Bathed in the light of a full moon the orchards of Sweet Apple Acres in Applebloom’s dream fabric had been transformed into a fantastical world. Girls let's all go ta sleep!  View Post

Girls! Let's all go ta sleep!

Girls! Let's all go ta sleep!

 That evening while Luna and Celestia discussed Phoenix's past Applebloom would be doing something for the first time. Later she would become legendary for it in my Equestria dreamscape.   


  “And they were never heard from again!” Scootaloo finished her tale. The Cutie Mark Crusaders were sitting on floor of their clubhouse eating kettle corn and telling ghost...

Rarity hugged the pillow. "Now darling. It's true I make my living designing, creating, and selling fashion to other ponies. Some of my designs are quite elaborate and are capable of creating stunning impressions in the minds of other ponies. However there are times when less is more. Where accessories and accoutrements only dilute the signal and drown out the intent of the original message." View Post

The Beast in the Box


Okay this a warning. This post may disturb some. However it goes a long way to explain the behavior of a particular pony. This was a very disturbing dream, and I almost decided to not post this. But without this information it's hard to understand the motivations of one pony, and what drives her to do what she does.

Surrender

Surrender

Obla-Doom slowly regained consciousness. Shaking the cobwebs from his head the Great Night-Terror Master surveyed the destruction before him. A few minutes ago he'd led his forces through a rip he and his forces carefully created between the Lower Dark Realms and the Dream Realm of Ponies. Stealthy they had worked to produce this fissure between realm.

The cell

 Blank Check laid on her the cot in her cell and took in all she could see in my Equestria Dreamscape. It wasn't much. The dressed stone floor, the ceiling of similar material and wooden beams, four magical glow lamps in the corners, a simple, low wooden table with basic cushion to sit on, and the toilet. That was it.

Bottled Six thumbnails

Bottled Six thumbnails

Folks seem to have enjoyed seeing the quick thumbnails I posted yesterday showing how I test out compositions before starting on a final piece. These are some possible ideas/poses I might use for a series of drawing depicting an anthropomorphic Mane SIx as genies. These may or may not be the poses I will use for the final drawings, but they give me a starting point to work from.
