Description This was a request during one of my Picarto     a couple of months of ago. It is of Thorax at the end of Season Six. It will be interesting to see what Hasbro and DHX crew do with him and the other changelings now, and what fate awaits Chrysalis?

I hope you like what you see. Please help make more art like this possible by supporting me at Patreon

I honestly love how you drew Thorax in your style!  It's so cool!

I hope that you have a great and blessed day/night!

Gotta admit something here: haven't been keeping up with the show itself for the past couple seasons so this guy is new to me.  So are the changelings going more for their own unique look now?  I ask because he looks more deer/bug rather than pony/bug.

He's a character who appeared last season.

SPOILER!



All the changelings except Chrysalis evolved Pokemon style into a different base form.  A changeling given the name Thorax by Spike had spent time openly among ponies in the Crystal Citadel (er Empire) before the evolution is now their ruler.  Chrysalis has banished herself into the 'wilderness' to plot her Revenge because she didn't have it in herself to Evolve like the rest of her hive.

Very well done how much time did you put in it ^_?

Baron-Engel In reply to mrhistorybuff [2017-01-27 20:56:28 +0000 UTC]

This was an evening where I cranked out about 6 images in a 4 hour period. If I remember correctly this was the last one of the evening and it was completed in about 40 to 45 minutes.

I just realized Thorax's new form looks like the 3-horned beetle kaiju ("giant monster") that Ultraman fought.

Horn and antlers at the same time. That's OP. He is even more powerful than alicorn.

I have to wonder if we'll have to wait as long in your dreamscape as we did in the show to see their kind undergo their combination mass evolution and regime change?

Baron-Engel In reply to Orca19904 [2017-01-27 05:49:16 +0000 UTC]

That will be a while. At the moment we've just dealt with what to do with Flutterbat since that has been a bit more complicated than in the show.

Yeah. The sheer amount of hate and butthurt that erupted was incredible. Thankfully it died down rather quickly.

Don't let this happen to Chrysalis!

Also they need a new species name, I called them 'Sparkle wings' when I got to know about them.

Now that I look at his design closely, I can't help but see Rhino beetle jaws on his head and horn on his forehead.

What gets me are their psychedelic colors.........shades of the late 60s!!!
They'll all be sitting around going Oh Wow Pony!!
Old Chrysalis will show up with bad vibes, messing with their groovy commune.....her last words.
Sock it to me!

The new changelings' colours are actually quite subdued and conservative when compared with moths and jewel scarabs IRL...

That is true.
I was shocked when I saw the show.
I suspected a pony of some sort but this was like a hippie psychedelic color experience.
It was nice and I do like brightly colored items.
I was very mod in my youth and it carried on in my older age. Drab?? Not me!!

a hippie psychedelic color experience. 4 out of 5 changeling nutritionists recommend hippy as part of a balanced diet

Well as pointed out the colors do mimic some of those found on certain moths, but it does make all of the changelings look like they are background characters from the Yellow Submarine.

Here comes Chrysalis with new minions.
Charcoal gray meanies!!!
Here is a new song
We all live in a pony universe, a pony universe, a pony universe.
A universe run by nothing but mares, nothing but mares, lots of mares butts......sorry drifted off for a minute.......oh WOW the colors man!!!!

I use the theme from "Spaceballs" as the basis for a Changelings anthem.   But that's just me...

Hold a wedding in a bubble with all the ponies for whom you care?

     But our queen is in there with you, posing as the bridal mare

‘Cause your love is what we need; we’re a bunch of bug-eyed fiends

     We’re the Changeling (watch out); ‘cause we’re the Changelings!
