Description Ponyville at Dawn. I don't think i could add anymore to this, but knowing me, i probably made several glaring errors that will be pointed out to me by the first guy who looks at the picture.

Also, before anypony asks: No, i don't know where Fluttershy is going with a seal, two hummingbirds, two weasels and a raccoon. I can only imagine it being a very, very cute place.

Step by Step:
Night:
Noon:
Dusk:

[Edit]
I made some small corrections, hopefully Dash will now fit in better with that cloud.

A very nice piece, I'm guessing this took a while to make, but here a few things you should improve:
- The shading on the ground is a bit bland, especially on the building behind big macintosh, where the shading for the bridge is a bit too light
-the perspective near berrypunch and opal is wierd, as opal is far down the trail, but looks closer than she should be.
- rainbow dash looks like she is floating in front of the side of the cloud. either that or she looks like shes about to fall off.
- The shading on the seal could be a bit better
Thats all, otherwise this piece blew my mind when I first saw it! It still does, keep up the amazing work!

I'll look into the weird hovering-Dash-thing tomorrow. She probably has just too much light on her (she's just too colorful for her own good).
Opal isn't that far down the trail, but pony-houses aren't really built for perspective-shots and i basically scaled the ponies (and subsequentially the cat) to the doors, so there might be some sort of optical illusion effect going on.
As for the seal... it's really just a big brown lump, there's not that much on it that could be shaded with the light coming from behind. Maybe i'll try and put some more shadows on it when i look into the Dash-problem.

Anyway, thanks for your critique.

Hey, would you mind if IΒ use this as a background on one of the websites I admin? I'm an officer for my college's MLP club and we're trying to liven up the page.

Thanks.

I don't know what you're asking me. If english isn't your first language, why not just ask someone to translate for you? Because this right here is clearly not working.

Look, i'm not one to judge, maybe you're dyslexic or something, but it really is not that difficult to put together a simple question. What do you want to know about the vectors? Their size? Who made them? If you can use them somewhere else? If i can upload them individually? What they are? Help me a bit here; i can not read minds.
