Seriously, it's a terrible movie. But it has an ostrich.

I was looking at the comic and thinking about it, and in 196 Miles says our escape, as well as having 10 rounds to make it. I know you guys are better at guessing than I am, but I still can't see him not at least trying to escape :)

Or he was only saying that to make sure that Lexington would be okay with it.
After all, if Miles said that he had to stay behind, I have a feeling that Lexi would have objected and wasted their ten rounds.

It's a failed comedy, and few things are more painful to watch than failed comedy.

@Coffee: I'd thought I'd do some fan art.
Are you at all adverse to your creations being given pony form? Because I thought I'd do the scene from Issue #190: No Reset Button For You where Serrin is standing on the ceiling.

Absolutely no problem at all. I made ponified versions of the characters, but I couldn't save it to my computer...

This! So much this!


As for character's talking back, I've never had that happen, I just start writing a scene and suddenly they are doing things OTHER than what I wanted them to do....

I've actually found it really interesting, working on a webcomic with an artist, things tend to ... change a little, between script and comic sometimes, and the artist doesn't see the change all the time, but it always WORKS. It's like the characters are talking back to the both of us!

/exactly/

The worst thing is when the plot and the characters suddenly tell you 'Hey, that character you love? Needs to die.'

This is probably an oddly specific question... But what colour are the eyes of the main characters?

Green's as good a place holding colour as any other. Though I have a suspicion that brown is the most common colour among Kagoans due to their proclivity for brown hair.

So... Unfinished Fanart:

I just need to add in a background and weather the storm of complaints that Serrin isn't adorable enough.

Damn... I got the ears wrong...

Serrin's a unicorn, of course. I'd have put her ears as longer than normal instead of sharp and pointy, and in the ponymaker thing I have her body a slightly darker shade of lavender, but that's okay.

I'd say Lloyd's cutie mark is a shield or scales (Janine's is the sun), and what's Serrin's cutie mark supposed to be? But I do like it, and thank you!

I need to draw pony versions of all the characters. Maybe I'll have a chance.

All right, all right! I forgot to add in the horn!

Serrin's cutie mark is a couple of runes. I put them too close together and they're hard to make out. I couldn't think of any other ideas, so that's what I went with. (Also, one is a private joke)
As for the ear, I made it pointy because really long ears look strange. I also got them around the wrong way.

And I agree. Lloyd's cutie mark is a shield. I just put a sunburst behind it.


Now... To begin the really quick and easy task of unicornifying Serrin.
And then the long and arduous task of adding in a background.

Should I just do a miscellaneous blank field of purple like the scene in question, or actually do something?
In which case, what kind of building are they in?

Few people realize that MLP;FiM subscribes to the the trifunctional hypothesis and so may be an ancient Indo-European culture.
