Pretty sure that was a war crime.

I liked Quibble Pants, so I made a comic. I draw slowly and burn out quickly, so it took me a week.

Commission for katiescootaloo. Luna has a new friend to game with.

Watching the @ncmares and @tsitra360 stream inspired me to do another Greenie. Blep.

One thing I notice about my art is that it I go through weird spurts of “genius” from time to time. That’s not meant to sound conceited, just that there are times when I feel like I draw well above my usual quality of work. I’ll look back sometimes and say “Damn, did I do that?” It’s a bit jarring, because I’ll feel like most of my past art is junk. Except for that one piece where I feel like I outdid myself. Then I get depressed when I can’t duplicate it. I know the solution is more practice, more repetition, until that benchmark becomes the norm, but sometimes you’re just not feeling it, y’know? I wish I knew how to ration my willpower better.

Anyway, NC and Tsi are awesome to the maxx, yo. I don’t need to tell you to follow them; I suspect if you’re seeing this, you already do. But I’mma tell you to do it anyway, just in case.

Happy birthday, @bumblebunn!

I couldn’t let one of my favorite artists take another run around the sun without doing something special. So here’s her cutey OC, Ink Key.

Seriously, this girl is amazing, and she’s been an inspiration and semi-mentor to me since I first had a chance to talk to her. How she manages to crank out such high quality artwork so quickly blows my mind. I wish her nothing but the best.

Have a great one, Snow. <3 (And for all my followers, go hit up her DA!)

1) AJ
2) Pinkie
3) Rarity, Fluttershy, and Twilight (no particular order)
6) Dash

And even though she’s not officially a part of the Mane 6, I give special consideration to Starlight. Unless they’re going to spin her off into her own series of reformed bad girls (yes pls), it’s time for a Mane 7.

And before anyone says “Why do you hate Dashie? She’s best pony, you’re just a stupid dummy butthead,” no, I do not hate Rainbow Dash. She just irritates me the most out of the six.

Also, you are a stupid dummy butthead. Preemptive burn.

Too much fun is scary.

Huggy Pie!

Actually, this is sort of an advertisement for my commissions. But she’s so cute, I figured I’d share her here too.

You can’t not hug that Ponk.

Commission Info!

http://yakoshi-draws-ponies.tumblr.com/Commissions

Just in case you’d forgotten (or you missed the last announcement), yes, I do commissions! I’ve even got a handy dandy commission info page set up now, with a nice breakdown of all the prices. Pinkie is there to be your guide.

Check it out! I wanna draw stuff for you. :)

They’ll be open until I hit 10, so get ‘em while you can.

@kris-321 is a straight up thug, don’t let him fool you with his memery.

This is totally SFW, ‘cause I spelled the naughty words incorrectly.

AJ in socks. Again!

One of my first posts here last year was a drawing of an adorable Applejack wearing socks. I wanted to see how much progress I’d made since then, so I did a new version to compare. I think I’ve come a long way, don’t you? Still, it always helps to have a good model.
