My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Comic Issue #1 Fan Art — Snapshot 3 — Left Line-Up %(2016)%

Technically the 5th or 6th snapshot, but I don't think they would add much on their own. This is the finished line-up on the left with all the main characters together. I'm sad that I don't have a snapshot with the full line-up on the right side before having drawn the background.

• Rainbow Dash is not amused about Pinkie busting their cover.
• Twilight Sparkle does her best at being braindead and screaming inside on what the heck Rainbow and Pinkie are doing.
• Rarity has her nice hair curl covering her face, I didn't want everyone's mane to fall to the same side, she's a trendsetter after all.
• Applejack, Spike, and Fluttershy are actually an emulation from the original panel this drawing is inspired by.


> About This Project
> Back in 2016, I planned to make one picture to each official MLP:FiM comic issue. I actually made several scans during the making of the first drawing and never published them. The pencil drawing has been created over the course of 3 months and it was very frustrating to me. It took so long due to medical conditions (OCPD, MDD) which makes me strive for unattainable perfection while being low on motivation and energy. On top of that I'm a bloody beginner, not having much experience, and it takes a lot of effort to get to such a level without practice. I never came back to this project which was left in a halfway coloured state. The whole experience made me lose my motivation for making art almost completely.


> About The Comic
> The first issue of the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic comics is the first part of a four-parter titled "The Return of Queen Chrysalis". In short, changelings either trapped the ponies or turned them into zombies. The plan of the main characters was to pretend being zombies and one specific panel showed Applejack, Spike and Fluttershy facing some changelings. I wanted to recreate that scene but zoomed out with a full line-up of the main characters.
