Description title_generator: if( Celestia && Luna ) title = adjective + " Skies"

There are still areas that could be refined a bit more, but I've been working on this for awhile now and have had my fill of it. My goals and direction shifted around a lot; many things changed in the process. Learning experience.

Used 's brush set (here ).

I love the name; it's what drew me here. It fits the picture, and throws the 'something bad will happen, Celestia' right at my face. Beautiful

There is a kind of ominous and lonely feeling.Β Β 

but it's background and lines are perfect.Β

Hello there! I was wondering if you might let me use this image in a YouTube video series. All credit would go to you, of course.

Is there any possible way you can do me a request?



I'm sorry, but your art is just absolutely STUNNING.




I apologize if I may annoy you in any way.



I don't usually do this.

I'm not currently taking requests (too many other projects in my schedule at the moment), but I'll probably post something in my journal when/if I'm open for them. Thanks for the interest and sorry for the late reply!

Uh-oh, Luna doesn't look like a happy camper. I presume this is shortly before their big fight?

I didn't really have a specific point in the story timeline picked out, but I like that idea.

I'm very impressed with how you managed to make Celestia's jewelry look so full and reflective. Nice palette, too. And course, adorable :3

I took a semester course on Java in school and haven't touched it since, so it looks good enough to me.

Celestia seems to be worried and Luna seems not to have a good mood.

Something about the way Luna looks makes me think something's wrong. Like NIghtmare Moon is coming that night kind of thing.

Ooh this is interesting.

I've had this idea about what if all the other ponies are gone except for Luna and Celestia. I think this picture might be perfect for a story like that.
