Description And before anyone asks, yes this was inspired by 'Uncommon Bond', and no, there's no MAJOR spoilers from this image!

Part of me really wants to see a scene in Season 8 of Sunburst attending the pony equivalent of the Antiques Roadshow, discovering one by one that each of his most expensive antiques are fake, culminating in him destroying the only genuine antique, in the style of 'The Vicar of Dibley'

This was originally created as a piece for Colour Collective over on Twitter (This week's colour being the dark green of Sunburst's cape!) However, I'm not around Friday evening, so I thought I might as well post it here a few days early.Β

I gave Sunburst a bit role in one of my fanfiction stories (which was slowly published over the first half of this year on FIMFiction.Net), and actually got pretty close to the whole antiquities interest considering it was months before this episode was released and the episode preview giving no clues about it!

(Without giving too much away of the story, Sunburst - who is living in Canterlot during the time the story is set in, same as Season 1 and before the return of the Crystal Empire - was researching artifacts in "The Luna Vault", a museum of sorts that was made from the thousand years of accumulated birthday and Hearth's Warming presents Celestia left for Luna when Luna was in exile, when he gets caught up in the events of the story and KOed, only to be rescued and sent to a hospital to recover.)

Back when I first started in this style, it probably would have taken 5 days and at least 30 Illustrator layers...

...however, now that I'm fluent in it, this image took my 4 hours and only one Illustrator layer!

Yeah, I agree. The one I fear most is that the vase suck you up and turn you into genie of the vase.

Chiyawa In reply to GoldandSliverDragon [2017-10-19 19:43:31 +0000 UTC]

Agree, but he has to grant wishes to whoever owns the vase. Well... Poor Sunburst.

Chiyawa In reply to GoldandSliverDragon [2017-10-20 13:36:08 +0000 UTC]

True, I guess it can be done, provided that if there is no rule stated the one that set the genie free has to become the next genie.

Well, I don't really trust Discord. His magic, although good, but sometimes still has unexpected booby trap.

Antique means not many are around.
So you buy a supposedly authentic antique then spot it in another shop.
How amazingly rare!!
Heehee!

I've never understood the point of antiques. Some guy buys something, his kids sell their dad's old junk and finally the grandkids buy it back with more money than it originally cost. Oh well, as long as everyone's happy...

Only one thing defines an ordinary item into antique worth buying: Nostalgic moments, or more accurately, its history.

And now I'm wondering if Equestria has artifacts like in Warehouse 13. Sunburst breaks it, next thing we know it's using his life force to repair itself.
