Description Super Long Overdue commission for the fantastic

This one was requested during one of the last charity streams I had to organize last year, and due to my busy schedule I have been unable to get to it up until now. It feels really satisfying to complete such a big picture, but it also feels quite sad. It was a lot of fun drawing this, taking the time to add every detail, profile every character, sketch every line. I had a blast shading this one, trying to figure out where the light fell and the shadow projected has never been so entertaining. It was a challenge, and in the end everyone involved came out satisfied with the result (even I like the picture, and I don't usually do this).

What you have here is a typical scene in the town of Ponyville, as an odd group of background and secondary ponies gather to enjoy their meals. Yes, all you see here are background characters and secondary characters from the show. None of these are OCs. You are more than welcome to play "Tag the Pony" in the comments. I will let you know if you got them right or not I hope you all enjoy this picture!

Seems Amethyst Star has the same cutie mark as Mint Jewelup and Lemony Gem. I saw a preview and Ms. Star is going to have screen time. Bringing background ponies into attention is what we discussed while you were drawing this. I don't know if you had a hand in influencing this but if you did I say congratulations. Episode 100 is going to be something else!

HAH!

No way man! That's awesome! I don't know if I did influence it, since the episodes take like a whole year to come to fruition, but episode 100 is indeed having the same feel as this drawing I can hardly wait.

         I was inspired to request this image after a day of playing the My Little Pony card game with my friends at a local game store. At that time I had a near complete collection and was paging through my binder. We got to talking about how some of the cards/characters are inter-related. For instance the two mares in the back row their cards' flavor text references each other, The three on left side of the center table are luck based, and the two others at the center table are intelligent. Of course I did not want to exclude Fancy Pants so I thought it would be a neat idea if he plotted with the CMC to make the two mares get along in a Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam kind of way. So I had them paired up in that manner.

          Both times, the talk about the cards and the requesting of this commission, happened in the afternoon when normally people would be getting off of work. I wanted this piece to reflect that same relaxed feeling of spending time with friends and people you care about. Obviously this piece is much later in the day than that. I was okay with that because when I was still hanging out with my friends at Boarders to play Mahjong it will often go late. Those were fun times and that sunset reminds me of that.

       My hope is to see this print hung in my game shop.
