Description NATG: Day 13 Draw a pony in command; Draw a pony in the lead
Commander Twilight orders all hooves to defend the BFFFort.

Honestly I felt like I ran into a huge artist block today, but I dealt with it the way I always do. I just pick the first idea that comes to my head, no matter how boring or dumb and try to make it at least look interesting. Sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesn't. Either way I still get the experience of making something.

I read the fanfic that uses this pic for the cover art, which called "The Battle of Fort Book". Not only do I love the pic, but I absolutely love the story. It has become my most favorite MLP fanfic that I have read due to its super cuteness and adorableness contained in the story. 

And now that I have found the source, I thank you for drawing the pic and inspiring the author of the fanfic to write an awesomely amazing story!

So, when you say

"And now that I have found the source, I thank you for drawing the pic and inspiring the author of the fanfic to write an awesomely amazing story! "

do you mean you had trouble finding the source? Are you aware sometimes the image source can be found by mousing over the image of the story and clicking the Source button?

If not, helpful tips

Now that I just read my previous comment, I just facepalmed at what I wrote. 

Bleh. I really need to think before I write. Some of the stuff I tend to write tend to sound awkward. I think I should've taken out the first part of my last sentence and have it say: "Thank you for drawing the pic and inspiring the author of the fanfic to write an awesomely amazing story!"

Cutest. Thing. Ever.

 

And the "wump" tickles me way more than it strictly should.

Thank you for this picture.
It honestly inspired a 1,000 fan-fiction out of me that ended up becoming my biggest hit on fimfiction, got a feature for a few days, and constantly gets d'awwws.

So thank you! So so much.

It's fortunate that pillows are soft, because otherwise I'd have a concussion after all the ones I've had thrown at me over the years.

Good aim Cadence, good aim. They then took it over the next level and used pony magic to attack and counter attack. Judging only from names Shining Armour might have and advantage seeing his talent is protection.

Good drawing!

"Hey what are you two doing in--"

Cadance in a ponytail is still the cutest thing ever.

Thanks! And the fading totally wasn't because I didn't have time to draw a background. Nope purely compositional.
