Happy Valentine’s Day, y’all! I hope it treated you all well, and that you had some fun! 

Whenever I decide to draw Chrysalis for Valentine’s Day, all I can think about was a moment, years ago, when I was explaining to my mom what I was drawing and what Changelings were, and then how she stopped to think for a second… And then said, “Oh, so they’re love bugs?”
And I had to stop myself from screaming that I was SHAM because I had been working on FQC about 3~ years or so at that point and had never even thought about that idea for a second.

Have a rare love bug, and go get some cheap candy tomorrow!!

Now here’s something we haven’t seen in a while! Changelings!
I got a cute commission from @ohmytgot​ again, this time of their Changeling OC’s! They’re having a lovely picnic with some bottled love, and some jewels they’ve mined up. What a pleasant afternoon~

I only have ONE commission slot left for this month, and then I’ll have a full queue for the first time ever!! If you’re thinking of ordering something, I’d be so happy if you would!

HUZZAH, IT’S DONE!

My friend Pen commissioned me to make a cover for his most recent pony fic, and, hoo boy, I don’t think I’ve drawn so many characters in one picture before! It was really interesting and fun to try and do something like this. I actually really enjoy designing covers, usually for my own stuff, so it was nice getting commissioned to do the same for someone else!

This commission was ultra fun because this is actually one of my own players’ characters from my homebrew game!
I’ve always wanted to do more artwork for my players then just illustrations of what the monsters they’re fighting look like, but it can be difficult to find the time and motivation.

So, when one of my players commissioned me to draw their unicorn wizard Fairy Lily, I was super excited!!
Fairy Lily is the researcher of the group, think Daniel from the Stargate series, and a fairly powerful magic user when she gets into battle. I decided to illustrate an event that happened to her before she met the group, which was her exploring a temple dedicated to Nightmare Moon that she managed to track down. Unfortunately, this particular adventure wasn’t very fun as the temple was full of traps and other mechanisms, and she wound up losing an ear trying to scramble out of a spear trap. But she did find a really cool, and rare sapphire that got her into contact with Princess Celestia of all people though, and now she has this crazy job alongside some other, equally as crazy people to protect Equestria from the things that go bump in the night.
All’s well that ends well, right?

Request #4: Luna eating a burrito

She might just be eating the entire burrito, package and all.
When I got this one, all I could think of was how in “A Royal Problem” she seems capable of eating anything, including stuff that’s supposed to be inedible when she’s super exhausted. (I mean, come on, she takes a bite out of a pineapple and then eats a banana peel after peeling the banana.)
I think it’s a good companion piece to the churros! XD

Request #1: Celestia eating churros.

I’m not sure what else needs to be said about this! It’s Celestia having herself some very delicious churros! Funny enough, I’ve never had a churro myself so I had to look up what they looked like. >>;

I FORGOT NIGHTMARE MOON!!!

I’ve always really wanted to draw Nightmare Moon with extra bright colors, and while this isn’t as crazy as I’d like, it’s definitely getting closer to what I keep hoping for.
Maybe I’ll do Daybreaker next since I haven’t drawn her before, and we finally got a Nightmare!Celestia like a lot of people were wanting for a while.

Eyyyy it’s the old goat noodle!

I really should have known better then to put him as an option in the poll I ran over on twitter, but I’ve been meaning to get out my usual horsey comfort zone. 
I think every MLP artist is kind of terrified someone will one day ask them to draw Discord and then when we can’t deliver, the whole fanbase will decry them as talentless sham that can only draw a few characters really well.
…No? Just me? Okay.
But despite this being the first time I’ve ever drawn Discord, I think I did pretty well! I gave him his cotton candy clouds back too, because I just adored that little detail way back when S2 premiered.

And here are all the princess’ quick paintings! You can definitely tell which one’s the first and which one’s are the most recent. These daily doodles (when I have something to share, that is) have been really nice and helping me stretch my artsy legs outside of things I feel are supposed to look really nice.

“Ugh, so much black… We get it; you’re sad!”

I’ve been wanting to draw Daybreaker ever since she premiered but never really had the time! And since her design is a little more complicated then Nightmare Moon’s, I decided to take it easy and do a screen redraw of my favorite scene. Although I think a lot of people liked how sassy she was.
Honestly, this was probably my favorite episode of the whole season. I’ve been DYING for a Celestia and Luna centric episode, and not only did it happen, IT WAS GREAT!
