Description Two things that influenced me greatly - MLP and System Shock - now merged into a single instance....

For whatever reason I was asking myself how Shodan would look like in MLP. This is my current idea of it...

The submission is a SVG file that looks way better than the 150 pixel size preview requiered by DA. Made with Inkscape, looks fine in Firefox...

I'm not really satisfied with the hair... Since SS2 we know that Shodan will avoid a comb if possible but this would not go with the FIM style at all... I'm open for ideas here...

The base for this artefact is Vote Twilight by
Coloring is inspired by the Shodan interpretation of Ryan Lesser (search big G for "Ryan Lesser Shodan" and you'll find).

MLP belongs to Hasbro.
System Shock and Shodan belong to Looking Glass now owned by Electronics Arts.

TWIDAN.EXE: Look at you Brony. Stumbling through my fandom, trying to comprehend what is beyond your primitive flesh and bone. How can you compare to the best pone alicorn?

I'm thinking SHODAN would look more suitable as a Nightmare Moon type. Her voice fits pretty well like Luna's old self - save the glitchy overtone.
Anyway, thanks for making this! I love both games, and although the gameplay of both takes some time to get used to, I actually enjoyed them, especially during the twist in the second game where it's basically like, "Let's go kick the Many's ass!"

OMFG! I LOVE System Shock 2 and Twilight Sparkle is my favorite pony! Awesome work man!

L-l-l-look at you pony. A pathetic creature of flesh and bone.

System Shock fans seem to be a small but never dying group...

Glad you like this - I wish I had more talent than just recoloring an existing vector - but somebody has to do it.

Do you mind if I re-size this to use as my avatar?

I am totally OK if you use this for an avatar image (note that you can download the SVG file and resize it to anything you need). While the lineart does not belong to me (made by ) I do not think that this kind of use is problematic.
So - have fun with it

Wow, thank you so very much! I'll give you credit for it in my profile.

Well, Shodan doesn't really have hair so much as she has wires. So I think it should be like Twilight sparkle looking straight on at the viewer, head tilted slightly downward (like Shodan's), then many wires acting as the 'hair' shooting out in random directions.

Well, Ryan Lesser introduced some wicked wires for Shodans hair. Too bad there is not so much detail in the last SS2 fight/cutscene...

The randomness versus the smooth hair in MLP was something I really did not know how to deal with... Pinky-Pie-Style Hair did not quite hit the spot ( ) and I'm not talented enough to come up with something good...
If I was able to draw something like Twilights head in a Shodan way I would certainly follow you suggestions but currently I'm limited to recycling the works of the gifted...

Maybe I can draw a base for you.
