Description I'm pretty sure that the title means "My Little Pony" ...or at leas "My Small Horse" :/ ...Not an expert in japanese grammar. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I drew a unicorn in a kimono pouring tea in Children's Literature classes when I was supposed to be analyzing the morality of Little Red Riding Hood. It was drawn in copic pens, then later colored and edited up a bit in Photoshop. ...I carry copics arround in my backpack. ...You know...just in case. XD;

I'm pretty sure there must be a japanese-themed place in equestria. I mean, why not? They have an old-west themed place. And a camelot-themed place. And then we've got Zecora whom i am pretty sure is from an african-themed place. Maybe there's some far off land to the east of Equestria that is just like japan, where ponies paint their faces white and wear kimonos while drinking tea. ...*shrug*

Bluh I'm pretty sure you don't tack on the modifying adjective like that. I'm not an expert, but I think it's probably "Watashi no chiisai uma".

Also, I'm totally for the idea of Japan!ponies. That would be the best thing ever. Though I suppose the kimonos would be really impractical at that length?

XD Of course they're impractical. But real life kimonos tend to be pretty impractical too. ...I mean, unless you're just wearing a summer yukata or something, you will find it hard to move. >8]

I think the no ko implies child, not small, so that would be "My baby horse". My Japanese is extremely rusty. Haven't used it in 20 years.

:/ Good point... Maybe Chisai would be a better word.

Oho, that's pretty cool.
I'm still loving how you do your ponies.

Speaking of ponies, didn't you mention to me at some point quite a while ago that you were working on an new pony persona for yourself? Is that still on its way, or has it been scrapped?

Just curious.

oAo;; AH! Thanks for reminding me! ...No this isn't my ponysona, but I did draw one and put it on my facebook but forgot to put it on dA. I'd better go do that. XD;;
