I kinda like the narwhal in the second picture.

I think he actually looks pretty good.

As far as beards go, beards make everyone look older, and there's simply no way of getting around that, really. At least a good proper beard.

@the pictures: So... that's kind Leo, huh? Bit disappointed he's no a hippocampus. Ah, well.

That art style is... I dunno. I like it the way it portrays everything except the mane cast. They still look weird to me. Everything else looks pretty cool, though, even if it doesn't fit in with the show like at all.

@Apple: Maybe that could be a part of his character; everyone thinks he's older than he really is. And then at some point he shaves it and everyone is surprised by how young he looks.

They CHEATED, the cheated, they freaking cheated!

The ball left Harper's hand after the Shotclock went off! After! But they gave it to him.

The ball left Eisley's hand before the Shotclock went off! Before! But they didn't allow it!

And Micheal Jordan blatantly fouled Russel, and the refs ignored it.

But worst of all, Micheal Jordan clearly hit Malone on the arm to get the ball in those last six or so seconds. SHOULD HAVE BEEN A FOUL, and that many fouls should have gotten him removed from play; or at least the Jazz should have gotten a foul shot.

But no, Jordan gets all the calls in his favor; because Micheal Jordan means Huge Ratings means Loads Of Advertising Revenue; and all the hype of the Bulls continuing their streak.

The game was rigged I tell ya, it was frigging rigged!

?

So is that, like, wrong thread, or am I just missing something?

The Jazz sounds like a slang term. Like The Fuzz.

I.... don't know.

But speaking of sea ponies, this is what happens when you WMG too hard.

Well there was a little discussion about team mascots, which led ATC to start ranting.

As far as the seapony pictures go, the art is nice, but it looks nothing like the Mane 6. Also, I really want to know why their wings are all white. And why only Spike is wearing a bubble helmet.

For some reason, I read ATC's rant in the voice of Dan Backslide.

They used a spell that gave the ponies gills turned their wings into fins, and it doesn't work on dragons.

I thought she'd look better once I put her mane on.... I was horribly wrong◊

@Turtle: I think she looks fine.

She's too ploofy now... and her ears look even weirder... like Goblin ears.

I am so redoing that part of the pattern when I have time... just keep sewing heads til I have it right... then I guess put them all on stakes and take a picture for shits and giggles.

You don't need to know Polish to know what this is about. Journalistic idiocy is a global thing.

Thanks guys. I really apriecate the positive feedback. And the negative ones too. It's all constructive and useful.

@ JT

A reversal of Fluttershy's bit?

You're just too old to apriecate this

Beat

I'm two years younger than you.

Ponies are Satan?

Explains so much...

Those pictures look interesting and as said, the non-Mane 6 look beautiful, but ... Leo is Celestia's cousin right? Um... Yeah.

"Cousin" in the same way Cadance is her "niece".

Yeah, I think it's basically established that Celestia's "family" is primarily adopted. Which raises some interesting implications about whether she's really Luna's sister...

Probably, but who knows?

Celestia and Luna's parents are similar to the King of the Cosmos from Katamari Damacy in that while the Goddesses of the Sun and Moon are his direct children, all of the other deities were created by hoof, thus making them cousins.

Well, that's admittedly possible. I do think that this isn't enough to joss Leo being her biological cousin. Fantasy has some weird families out there. Still, I'm wondering how that might have happened.

Well, I tend to think that 'alicorns' can choose their own appearance - we've seen Luna do it, after all. So maybe he just altered his form a bit closer to his citizens to make them feel more at ease.

Also I tend to regard the cosmic council as being one gigantic adoptive family, and any pair or more that either operate the same country or very close countries, will regard one another as brothers/sisters, their proteges as nieces/nephews, and now their distant 'relatives' as cousins.

And that article... just taking a wild swing, does it say the president hates ponies? We need to get Death in here.

@Kegi: I can kind see that. I was actually planning on Leo being among the mising in My Little ... but clearly that is unnescessary! Especially considering who else isn't among the missing.

@JT The thread was somehow discussing sports team names and mascots I chimed in about the Lakers and I think I got ATC all up in a Lakers-frenzy.

Well at least it's probably not like Malack's family.
