Contest Winner!
Introducing the new and improved Gia the griffon!
Out of three entries, the winner is vixenwolf123! Please submit your OC, and I’ll get to work as soon as possible.
Admittedly, this final design isn’t exactly the same as the entry I received, but it is the same color scheme. See for yourself!
I liked the concept, so I adapted it to something a bit more canonical. Thanks again vixenwolf123, and congratulations!

It’s been a while since I logged into the MLPDS Discord. Not much has changed, but it’d been too long since I participated in a drawalong. Here’s the fruits of today’s labors, each in 30 minutes or less of course.
The topic for all was simply “pony” so I asked the BT peeps for specific horses, and just drew the first thing that came to mind. Looking them over now, seems the next area of improvement is definitely legs. Gotta get consistent!
Updated character ref for Greenie. Mostly for me, but if anyone wants to take a crack at him, have at it! I enjoy seeing other artists’ take on him.
There’s also a permanent link on the main page, just in case.

Happy birthday, Silver Quill!
Doubt he’ll see this, but I wanted to show my appreciation somehow for my favorite fandom reviewer, analyst, and most notable hippogriff. There aren’t many that can produce consistently entertaining content with such a unique blend of humor, insight, cartoonish violence, and, dare I say, wisdom. Not only is he a talented vector artist and voice actor, but he’s putting in work all over the place. How many collabs has this guy participated in? How many conventions has he attended? I don’t know how he does it. Needless to say, his efforts have impressed the hell out of me.
Thanks for all your hard work, SQ! Have a good‘un.

One of my fondest memories this year was attending Woodlore’s live performance debut at Everfree Northwest. I got to meet him after the set, and he’s a genuinely cool guy on top of being a real talent. Just so much soul in his voice. It’s no wonder he’s a favorite on the Berrytube playlist. It was awesome getting to meet you, dude. Here’s to next year!

“It’s a holiday tradition! Actually, what most ponies assume to be mistletoe–order Santalaceae–is, in fact, holly–order Aquifoliales. A very common mistake to the undiscerning eye. See, mistletoe has rounded leaves with white berries, while holly has jagged leaves with red berries. It’s all VERY fascinating, I have an entire shelf of books about traditional holiday flora, if you’re inter–what? Oh, right, the tradition!”
Some fanart of Green Ganache from my friend Ti_Deltas. I love it! Thanks, dude.
