Description Here is the fully compiled Cutie Mark story (at half resolution <.<)

Once again, a big thanks to the guys n girls of Tumblr and DeviantArt who provided fantastic feedback through out the process. This would not have been possible without you all.

To all 1100 DA watchers and 865 Tumlr followers on the main blog, you are all fantastic. Keep at it!

Final Panel: [link]

For those who think the comic is oddly paced, I am aware of that. Remember it wasn't designed as a comic therefore it's disjointed setting reflects this. It was designed as a series of posts for tumblr.

The ending was rushed a tad more than I would have liked, and Maybe I'll go back and revise it some day, but for now, It's a done project.

A great story, very interesting in itself. I like your creativity when developing it and how the graphed speaks highly of your abilities as a draftsman. On the issue of substance but is a much used cliche, this well done.
In regard to the funds has been a good selection I have nothing to object or suggest, so if I call a little attention is the resemblance that has this pony with Applejack.
The supporting characters nothing to say, they fulfill their function in your story so I have no more things to object.
Well until another pic, this work is to you is well

Lightning reflect efficiency, speed. Like Rainbow Dash's cutiemark is a lightning bolt to represent speed.

but she took days to repair that ... why is she speedy then? oO
dont get me wrong. i love this backgroundpony, and im very happy you made an OC out of it. This pony needs more attention.
but i thought her CM-story would be more epic.

Sintakhra In reply to DavidCurser [2013-04-17 12:34:55 +0000 UTC]

Time-wise it took her one night to fix the table with minimal training ^^
And the thing is, the more times people have "Epic" cutie mark stories, it detracts from the overall feeling of getting your cutie mark. If everyone's is epic, is anyone's epic?
That and I was absolutely knackered whilst writing and drawing this whilst working and, I've freely admitted this already elsewhere, It was rushed and I wanted to just get it done (it had dragged on for a few weeks).
Given time and unending inspiration and patience, I may revisit it and retcon parts, but that is in the unforeseeable future.

i dont know that many epic CM stories oO tell me some.
i know RD's is pretty epic and maybe twilights, but else?
Epic is already something like "she was struck by a lightning and survived", that would satisfy me already xD
epic is always in the eye of the viewer. if there is to much is overloaded, i dont like that ^^
"keep it simple but make everything epic" is a guideline i try to use.
I made a OC based on MjΓΆlna or Sandy, named her Donna, and changed the CM slightly. Her destiny is to take the legacy of the Hammer, the MjΓΆlnir her father gave to her after he died--<-- epic enough, for my taste.

thank you for answering my comment ^^ i appreciate it ^^

There are a few lurking about on tumblr.
Another one of the Mane 6 was Fluttershy who had just plummeted from Cloudsdale to be caught by essentially her cutie mark realised.

Sintakhra In reply to DavidCurser [2013-04-17 15:39:03 +0000 UTC]

A questionmark . Which signifies that I honestly don't have a clue what to do half the time but is also a double standard for me being very good at rather random facts which leave people thinking "???"

Just one "?". the "???" was more a general "What on Earth?" gesture

I had a feeling you'd say that. He appears as a table maker on The Equestrian Inquirer (EQI) who are a part of the EverFree Radio Network and is is a funny made up pony related news shows. it's worth watching in my opinion.

This was thoroughly enjoyable. also I couldn't help but notice the lightning bolt behind the hammer, and that the hammer looks like mjolnir. Therefore I must conclude that this is the story of a pony Thor

Sintakhra In reply to creeper57 [2012-06-30 20:44:38 +0000 UTC]

The fandom named her MjΓΆlna after her appearance in Super Cider Squeezy 6000 because of her similarity to the blonde haired Norse god of lightning in Marval's movie "Thor"

I just took her Cutie mark and gave it a literal deciphering to come up with her personality as it is ^^ To me, she isn't Thor. But that's my headcanon and I can't force it on anyone else
