Description All hail the Bug Queen in her slimey glory!
(I kinda support the fan theory I read somewhere, that Chrysalis is Queen Rosedust from G1,
consumed by greed, evil and jealousy, OR one of her Flutter Ponies. Resulting in this bug like succubus...)


Hi guys! I'm back for a bit.
Everyone's ok out there I hope?

Chrysalis belongs to Hasbro

Fairy-Slayer [2014-12-14 00:40:54 +0000 UTC]

This is great work on the vicious queen in all her nightmarish glory. I think you really captured her true nature and personality fantastically: vicious, ugly, decaying, yet still powerful and somehow compelling. No wonder ponies fear her so much! Nice choice of a foul, acrid background for her too.

CigarsCigarettes In reply to Fairy-Slayer [2014-12-16 10:06:35 +0000 UTC]

Thank you In the series, she indeed striked me as such an ugly being, both physically and psychologically. But yet she had a very elegant aura around her. A very well thought character and an amazing idea for a female villain.
I'm not really a fan of all the beautified Chrysalis(es) around here, so I'm happy I could manage to keep all these features true to her by also maintaining this kind of image ^^

Thank you. I'm not entirely down with that theory myself, but that was a pretty original idea I came across and didn't throw me back as much.
But of course that's just my opinion Speaking of Flutter Ponies, they were so delicate and pretty, I should really work on them soon, wouldn't mind to see your take on their anatomy as well, that is, if you don't have anything else planned in terms of future drawings :3

equigoyle In reply to CigarsCigarettes [2014-12-17 03:26:36 +0000 UTC]

Funny you should mention that. ^^
I've been considering which Flutter Pronies I should draw but haven't been able to decide. I'm trying to figure out a simple Christmas image featuring Megan and Sundance and maybe one or two other ponies. But I've been struggling with Megan. Sundance came out lookng cute though....at least so far.

CigarsCigarettes In reply to equigoyle [2014-12-17 18:51:52 +0000 UTC]

Wow, aren't I lucky to guess

Well, I for one can't wait to see it I'm currently working on one of my 'old G1 memory' pieces with Sundance in it as well, so it will be awesome to see yours.
Especially since it will have Megan in it (I don't get the whole hate thing, she never really bothered me in the old series)...Hmmm yeah, picking one of the Flutter Ponies can be a bit hard, they're all exciting to draw. But luckily there weren't that many of them, I'm sure you'll have your pick (I personally always had a hard time picking my favourite between Morning Glory and Forget-Me-Not)

equigoyle In reply to CigarsCigarettes [2014-12-18 02:28:50 +0000 UTC]

Ah Morning Glory. And Forget Me Not. I see them as male Flutter Ponies....same as Wind Drifter. They can't ALL be girls...but maybe I could invent some babies and other stallions.

With Megan the only thing I didn't like about her is the voice actress and the rushed stoey lines. She was much better in the pilot and the special. I liked that style of animation so that's how I want to draw her. I just can't find any good refs for her.

Interesting theory on her backround. I always see her as Equestria's one and only true villain, and a cross between being a photo negative of Twilight Sparkle.

CigarsCigarettes In reply to SlanderOptim7th [2014-12-16 09:52:42 +0000 UTC]

Well, I kinda known Tirek from way backΒ  (G1) but I treat him as an old villain, that could stay in the old series. As far as G4 and Equestria go, I also see Chrysalis as a real villain.
Kids show and all, but there seriously need to be more bad guys like her, elegant and evil, without being 'converted' by the end of the episode :/

SlanderOptim7th In reply to CigarsCigarettes [2014-12-16 19:17:35 +0000 UTC]

Yeah the in modern society they don't teach us that their is such a thing as true evil, ( Megatron, Unicron, DarkKat, Makuta as some examples.) Β I just find it very misleading that mlp seems to give off the vibe that everyone is capable of ALWAYS going from bad to good- Just very misleading, ( And on that note, I'm waiting on Sunset to relapse, like Discord did/WILL again.)

CigarsCigarettes In reply to SlanderOptim7th [2014-12-17 18:55:39 +0000 UTC]

I know. I get that people want to plant in fresh young minds that all evil in the world can be turned into good, but what if it can't? What if someone is just born with that thirst for evil, and there are COUNTLESS examples in the world we live in, even recently. Like you said, very misleading. I would rather introduce a villain that cannot or doesn't want to turn good, so that future generations can deal with the fact that good does not always prevail, teach awareness, but not necessarily ultimate violence when dealing with it.

Aaah, now that is the queen we all love to hate ^_^
honestly, you did it just majestically disgusting, in the good way I mean incredibly well thought out, and at a certain extent, biologically reasonable
i could say this is the Crysalis I'd have in my universum ^_^
just out of curiosity, did you use that certain ref I proposed ? )

Anyhow, fear the Queesn of the swarm :3 Armies will shatter, worlds will burn )))

Glad to hear you like it, espceially since you vere one of the people who were expecting her (or any villain in my gallery actually) for sometime now

Actually, I kinda focused on the 'atmosphere' in the pics you sent earlier (does that make sense?), it did help me with the background, yes.
That and the atmosphere in 'Be prepared' from the Lion King Kind of a hellish, covered in sulfur fumes place

CigarsCigarettes In reply to RollsRocker [2014-12-17 18:46:01 +0000 UTC]

Hmmm...how should I say it...Ok, you know me, I don't really fully know what's going on in Starcraft, especially regarding this chick encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/ima… but this particular image, for me, had an atmosphere of fear, cunning, wit and smartness, a kind of flare and somwhat evil. This one image alone has this air about it, that made me think "I wouldn't really want to mess with this woman". And I guess that kinda wraps what I was aiming for with Chrysalis.
I don't know hoe to better describe it in english at this point, but I hope some of it came through

And actually, yes, I think chances are good I'll end this year with Sombra But I can't really tell anything more at this point.

Hehe, no worries XD The story of that chick is HUGE anyway XD
Well, i have to praise you, you completely desribed her At least when she was evil Β 
And well, in what concerns both Kerrigan and Krysalis, (similar names hehe ), I think this trailer of destruction and impending doom fits BOTH perfectly ) With their biological armies and such XDΒ www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVbeoS… you tell me if you'd agree But you got it right Β 

It did, don't worry

Neat If something I could TRY and give some armor examples XD Β Anyhow, good luck with him as well Β

Thanks
I imagine that when 'da power of love' sent Chrysalis somewhere over the horizon, she needed time to heal herself and made something like a big cacoon (?).
This would be the image minutes after she finally regenerated and got out (slime all over the place)
