My Little Pony 2F: Ponibooru, We Hardly Knew Ye...

[Maxtronaut]

Hello fellow bronies and pegasisters. My name is Sysnisster Syster or RetroGamer1224 on twitter/ I just started the show in mid May and I love it a whole lot. Umm I dunno what else to say other then the communiter is super awesome and I am very happy to be proud of it.

Welcome to the herd! Please take a brohoof!

Tell us a bit about yourself. IE: Fav pony, shipping pair, episode, stuff like that. (Too creeperish? )

Not too much, yet. It'll get lost in the welcome; there ought to be at least two more on the way.

One of which needs a cue. Alabenson, would you care for a celebratory barrage of the OFCs?

I dun really have a fav ship. Maybe AppleDash or ScootDash. My second post has my fav ponies. Fav episode is Hurricane Fluttershy (Seen it 6+ times). Ummmm I like the original Derpy voice.

Better? I ended up mostly rebuilding the legs (and the body a bit) from looking back at the articulation - and a horse walking animation. This involved also looking at real horses again. Which, yes, means, in order to get it something like, I did have to spend several minutes literally looking at a horse's arse...

Not put the floaty guns nack this time, since they rather got in the way last time!

I also took, I think it was Even-, sorry, SlyGuy's advice and went more Armoured Fetlock Flares, which I think does look better!

See, if it is like a creepy-pasta, then we're missing a vital stage.

The Audience indulging in Wild Mass Guessing to try and figure out what exactly just happened and what it all meant!


My theory is that the story is about Mask, who has gotten trapped in Spike's Thousand-Year-Dream (probably due to it being so filled with Lies about Rarity and the other ponies). She must figure out what is wrong and slowly destroy the dream from the inside out, in order to stop being Rarity and everyone else in the dream and go back to being Mask.
Once she has gotten spike to admit what he's doing, the truth sets her free.

Also; Regarding who mask is or isn't, I'm reminded of something I said a little while back. "It's Masks all the way down, and they're all true".

Soras - Draw ponies.

I'm not 100% certain that Tiki Snakes is right, but this feels to me like the most coherent explanation for what actually happened in the story. So, good job ripping logical organization out the swirling chaotic maelstrom. Keep up the good work.

Never saw the first pic. Seen the second and I LOVE Pinkie. She is my fav pony (mostly because she seems to be one closest to my heart). Rainbow Dash and AJ are next. Then Twilight, Fluttershy, and Rarity. Of the CMC it has to be Scootaloo and AppleBloom. I like Sweetiebell too. Of the many and many background ponies I have to give it to Spitfire of the Wonderbolts then Derpy. Gods it feels like I still have so much to catch up on.

Umm I have read Cupcakes and My Little Dashie, for what it is worth.

Welcome to the herd.

Larger picture spams will come later, that's not really my thing.

Given the current conversation in the thread, might I recommend you read Thanqol's Your's Truly? It's an excellent story and might leave you less confused since we're all talking about Easy as Lying right now, which is set in the same continuity.

That looks a lot better. I think the walking stance and armor look good and the arse looks entirely reasonable given the power armored covering. Your time was well spent. The headpiece of the armor looks slightly odd though, and actually makes me think of a cow, which I think is partially due to the length of the snout and partially due to the top reminding me of horns.

That's hilarious! (But also full of swear words. Just saying.)

I would give anything to be able to do that. But I think I share the same problem as Zigg'rrauglurr (How the hell do you pronounce that?) in that the pictures in my mind are rarely perfect anyway.

Jolly good!

The headpiece of the armor looks slightly odd though, and actually makes me think of a cow, which I think is partially due to the length of the snout and partially due to the top reminding me of horns.

Yeah, not overly happy with that myself. Unfortunately, that is about the best I can do, given the material limitations; i.e. can't make 'em thinner than 1mm. Which makes doing thin curvy things like horns extremely hard, and nearly impossible on a small figure like that.

(It's sort of designed as a box shape which covers the pointing-foward-over-the-eyes horns, and the ears and the pointing-backward-over-the-ears horns. At larger scale, I'd probably model them more accurately and as seperate bits.)

I might have another look another day, see if I can shave another 0.1 or 0.2mm off. The absolute, absolute limit is 0.7mm; I design to 1mm, because it gives me a bit of maneouvering room. This may be one of those times I have get a bit closer to that. But I'm not sure how close I've actually gotten with that already, though.

Any chance you could turn them to point up, or would that not "fit the vision", as it were?

I also feel like the front... what are they, shins? between the two blue joints—are a little thin.

[Lix Lorn]

Welp. It's finally happened. Pony paradox is here for my soul.

Quick! Call Charger!

Quick! Call Charger!

Which one?

[Zigg'rrauglurr]

Hey guys, Some friends were going to make some pins, so I tweaked some pony images that have been on the internet for ever. In some I tried to recreate the original vector, in others was more of a touchup. But they ended up being awesome pins and decen wallpapers so if anyone is looking for a new face on his/her desktop, have at them:

Hmm. Might well try that, see what it looks like. Good thought!

Can probably live with the shins, though, seeing as there, beefing 'em up by 10% probably won't be noticeable at actual size.

...or they would distort the screen if they'd show up. Plugging the links in directly gives me a 403 Forbidden. Try something else.

That said, I saw them on your deviantArt earlier. The Dash one definitely needs to have used a font different than Arial or whatever that is, and probably not overlapping the mane (though it looks fine, even great, on the Pinkie and Twi images).

EDIT: Any chance Brohoof could be a bit smaller, like 200x200 or so, for use as a reaction image?

Yep, the original images are for making pins, that's the reason for the overlapping text. I didn't deem the RD one good enough for a wallpaper, which that's what the the ones I tried to post are. I'm editing the links right now.

you can hotlink from DA.

[OracleofWuffing]

I use Imageshack mostly because I'm lazy, you just need to select "Do not resize" when uploading your picture.

[Trixie]

Google Picasa (website, not the program thing) for me for hosting, zero downtimes and great speed compared to other services but sometimes you need to wiggle a bit to get hotlink links...

If anyone needs to know how, contact on mail/steam/AIM.

Yeah, but I don't want to spam a gallery with the four versions of each image (16:9,16:10,4:3 and pin)

Even better, I know enough to rip the hotlink from the bowels of the beast, the first time, I hotlinked the google drive image, but apparently the links are temporary...

Picasa is not a Google drive, it's their image hosting service. I host nearly all images from OPs and such on my account and the links didn't budged in years...
