Is this about Scootaloo?

If so, I thought most humanizations gave her that skin tone.

I'm surprised this ship hasn't enjoyed a sudden upsurge in popularity.

The reason he gave for the ship actually makes a strange kind of sense.

Eh, the racist angle :P I never downvote unless the topic is particularly distasteful (usually a particularly prurient(r34) or stupid(thoughtless) piece only) and I certainly would not downvote on race.

@Dalek: It's a canonically consistent piece of shipping

It makes some sense, which is more than can be said of the typical crack ship

Of course, crack shipping is fun too.

Hell, that was Rarity's whole motive for befriending Twi in the first place besides being the fashion police.

Dear Lord, Rarity/Twilight makes more and more sense....

No! Trixie is Twi's one and only! And maybe Applejack too.

I'm immune to shipping goggles, so I fail to see any of those working.

#270233 Ace Of Scarabs Wed, 15th Aug '12 9:26:38 AM from Singapore

Like I said, if you make your Shipping Goggles into Broken Phantasms, Twilight Sparkle easily has the most swag of the Mane Six and is argubly at least as shippable as Dashie

Looking at the Pilot and Ticket Master alone, everypony apparently wants her for various reasons, after all

What is a Broken Phantasm?

Popping in after skimming the thread.

@Apple: I agree with whoever it was who said you should start with simpler four panel comics. They're easier to draw and it'll give you a good feel for the cast dynamics while still being something worth reading. The epic stuff can wait until you're more comfortable with doing it.

@Yeller: Hmmm, this will be a bit of an explanation. Simplified, it's where you overclock a summoned legendary weapon until breaking point to make it do ridiculously overpowered things, destroying the weapon in the process.

In Fate/stay night, Servants can use this as an ultra-powerful attack by overloading their Noble Phantasm with mana so that they shatter on impact (called a Broken Phantasm), doing devastating damage. Archer, the Servant who does this in-game uses it without any setback at all, since he is a 'Faker' who duplicates any Noble Phantasms rather than 'owning' one, meaning that he can endlessly re-make Phantasms and break them as long as he has the mana for it.

Thanks for all the advice and support guys. Also, Mousa, link me to your work. I want to cast my vote.

@Apple: The picture in question is here.

I think Spike's legs look a bit weird, but the CMC look pretty good.

I voted up.

And yes, you're right Ace.

Also, does anyone have an FIM pony anatomy reference? I'd really really aprieacte it.

Yeah, there's really no way creating a system that can't be gamed in some way. It basically comes down to "it works most of the time, so we'll just have to go with it despite the occasional screwups".

I thought Spike looked weird too, it's odd, it's like he can't look right unless it's from a quarter/ three-quarters perspective.

And crossed legs were never my strong point, I'll get a reference for it in the future.

The spiked ears are also weird, but I assume it's intentional.

#270248 Purple Dalek Wed, 15th Aug '12 9:54:45 AM from the Moon

Spike always looks weird as a human to me. I always thought that if Twi is human, Spike would be a cat or crow or something.

@Ace: I learned a lot from Ego's digital coloring guide, because back then I was coloring stuff in stroke by stroke, which is fine if you're being more artsy but not so good when it's just flat colors. EQD really has a lot of great resources too.
