G Three came, across the net
It brought us pain and misery

It killed our hopes, it killed our dreams
It took our minds for it's own needs

We fought it hard, we fought it well
Out on the plains we gave it HELL

But strong it was, too much Cree.
Oh will we ever be set free

Riding through forums and barren sites
Galloping hard on the net

Chasing the infidels back to their holes
Fighting them at their own game

Protest for freedom, post in the back
Woman and children, cowards CHARGE

Run to the Hills, Run for your lives
Run to the hills, Run for your lives

Artist blue in barren sites
Condeming and painting's a game

****** the fandom and wasting the ponies
"The only good suckers are tame"

Selling them toys and taking their cash
Enslaving the stupid and destroying the old

Run to the Hills, Run for your lives
Run to the hills, Run for your lives

At first, the comic was kinda "strange", but then came the other half and... man, those feels. :(

... oh, and Halloween stuff. One mustn't forget to post Halloween stuff.

EDIT:

And they've finally finished the Hot Minute series!



Although I have to say the ones that aired in the first half the year were a bit better than these two. They seem to lack something, the animation has more obvious cuts and in Rarity's case, the VA hasn't set the voice quite correctly. Still nice, though, and even that teeny-tiny midget of official animation makes the wait so much easier. :P

EDIT2:

For Halloween stuff there must be! (Sorry, Karuik)

EDIT3:

Now... I'm getting a bit worried. Some dark power may have abducted the ones that have read this post before you. They happened around, dropped a like and haven't been heard from since. You might want to look behind yourself 'just to be sure' right about now.

...Still alive and completely not abducted? Ok, then enjoy some more Nightmare Night preparations from 'round the great town of Ponyville! ;)

Aaand with exactly one month remaining between today and the P day, for which we've all been waiting for, Hub has decided to hype it up with a pretty biggish spoiler of the starting 2-parter.

No, I won't be so heartless as to include a spoiler tag with that info in this post. Everyone will find out through all the promotions that are going to start up before seeing the episodes, anyway. ;)

Nice flag. :)

Although I'm not much into the whole NLR and SE thing, it's always nice to see some art done in that theme (especially since Foxi-5, the guy behind those awesome mechs I had posted a while ago, bases the whole series around the idea of Luna and Celestia militaristic rivalry). Plus, I just love this piece:



Putting Luna into WoB, one assumes Celestia represents ComStar and that leads to a question: "There are 6 houses in the IS that are basically ruled by ComStar and WoB... then there is mane 6 ruled over by Celestia and Luna. How would mane 6 representation of the Houses look like?" Assuming Star League era with Cameron still on the map, since it is impossible to draw parallels between the post-SL 5/6, which is constantly at each other's throats and 6 friends... although anyone brave enough to try and find something that works has got my full support (hey, it could be fun). ^_^

@Aridos
Well acording to the Lore we have on our EQRG forum Celestia and Luna died centuries ago. What is left is the Solar Conclave (Comstar)
Posted Image
who tries to be neutral and bring back harmony to the Inner Sphere one way or another. However the shism will happeneventually and the Word of Luna will be, just like in the original Battletech lore, the fundamental splitoff of the Solar Conclave.

To hop on your Question however:

Federated Suns - Twilight Sparkle (Dear Princess Celestia, today I tried to be the good guy, but I failed)
Steiner - Rarity (Look at all my mighty and fabulous Mechs! Now I just need some good pilots...)
Kurita - Rainbow Dash (Taste my awesomeness of my imperialism motherbuckers!)
Marik - Pinkie Pie(Hey! How about inviting a lot of small states and have a gant party!?)
Rasalhague - Fluttershy(Can I have independence please? I mean ...if you don't mind...)
Liao - Applejack (Work harder those billions of people ain't feed themselves!)

Just imagine for a second MW:O allowed for full acutator functioning like demonstrated up there... :)

Oh, and now to pony. You've probably all seen the new promo airing on Hub right now already, so no need to post it here, right? I like the fact that both the premise and the promo turned the summer predictions on their heads (since it means I was right :D) and it also makes for much bigger excitement, since it's hard to know what to expect.

So have some more of Nightmare Night preparations in the meantime. :P

Posted Image

P.S. Guys, I'd like to ask for a little bit of advice, please. Could someone point me in the right direction in the thickness of the strokes when it comes to show-accurate pictures?

I mean, I've been using Illustrator and so far have always done pretty well with 8 points of width, but I've hit a wall now when doing a pony-fied Polish winged hussar (you probably know those guys, but just in case... look for the feathery thing on their backs), since no matter how much I try, the feathers simply require a much smaller stroke to look right... but that goes right against the show art design where the stroke width is uniform across the whole character and all it's accessories (apart from pressure zones), so if I want it to look right, I'll have to re-scale all of them.

I'm asking here, because the show does actually have characters with feather accessories (the buffalo) and they look good, so I'm going to attempt a re-scale of the whole pony with some lower stroke width and see how it goes, however, the stroke width is obviously changing from scene to scene due to how scaling of puppets works (so there is no "right" stroke width to use, sadly and I'll have to go by intuition... thus asking for a little bit of objective take on the matter).

My daily dose of "WTF?" has been officially filled to the top. :ph34r:

On the other hand, Halloween was pretty rich in terms of great (and not that weird B)) stuff.
Like this song, which is perfect for atmosphere... if only it wasn't November here already.



Oh, and for any Castlevania players out there, check this out:



Of course, this is just a tiny piece of all the great pony stuff that was unleashed on the world yesterday, but all those punpkins and batponies and spooky vids, songs, pics, costumes (even two old Lauren's costumes...) simply can't be contained by this whole thread, let alone this single post, so yeah. :huh:

@ Fabe; had a similar experience.
The music and premise were annoyingly teenybopper, but it wasn't the terribad I was fearing. (And I have daughters, so even those negative points were palatable).
