"War. War never changes. Those talking pastel-colored ponies, however... they're new."

I shouldn't have to say this, but seriously: do NOT hold a gun with your mouth. No good can come from it.

I would make a joke about being a grown man who is a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, but I think half the internet (including myself) have done that already, so let's move on.

I was given Fallout: New Vegas and discovered the new MLP show around the same time, and while playing FO:NV with all of it's western themes, I found myself picturing Applejack as the courier.

The downed ponies are meant to be feral ghouls. I played fast and loose with their color scheme, however, for added contrast with the Mojave wasteland. That pony in the back is a Nightkin. Their cutie marks are the symbol for radioactive and a crescent moon with stars, respectively.

The gun Applejack is holding (in such a fashion that nobody should ever mimic) is the Lucky .357 magnum revolver. I chose it for its western appearance and distinct look, but I later realized it was even more appropriate that I thought given that the gun basically has its own cutie mark.

That said, I have no idea how she fires the darn thing.

EDIT: Some corrections, anti-aliased high-res version.

This is something the fandoms of MLP and Fallout needed. Is Applejack going to fight the sleazy Benny, the fascist Roman cosplayers, the evil brother Elijah, the mad scientists in floating robot bodies, the guy that salts the earth, and the mysterious Ulysses?

My life has officially come full circle. I enjoy Fallout, and I do like My Little Pony. Fallout: Equestria is by far my favourite book of all time, I absolutely love the spin off books as well and I have a playlist on youtube that is half fan songs created for F:E. In fact, Fallout: Equestria is what managed to get me into seriously writing my own fiction. And now I realise that the very picture that inspired it all was made by the same person as the webcomic I have been reading since my teens? Dan, you are the muse of legends!

Look its the picture that inspired the most trending and best fandom ever. thanks for getting me into Mlp, if it was not for this I would have still thought of every brony as a fucking horse fucking fagget and would not have gotten the most beutiful girlfriend ever :3 so I must say that we all have come from a long journy.

I wasn't expecting Fallout: New Vegas to be honest (considering how little NV references there are in FoE) but I tip my hat to you DanShive for creating this inspiring and question-rising piece of art.

I swear, there is this creepy glitch in the real game that just gives me night mares. Β Have chills from this comment. The creepy glitch in Fallout Vegas is that there is a person that talks to you in a chair. The creepy part s that the person starts rotating its head, sometimes until it is upside down. The creepier part of the glitch: he is floating in a sitting position, following you, except with it's head rotated in a creepy way. I saw that glitch and slept with the lights on for a week.Β

Well, damn. Kkat may have made FoE , but you? You inspired her . You more or less triggered the creation of what I believe to be one of the best modern stories ever written.

And you did this all with a picture. Not the best picture, but a good one nonetheless.

In short, you are now legendary in my opinion.
