There, I hope that clears everything up.
Oh my goodness I just want to express my love for this blog. I needed a good laugh this morning and that third panel totally delivered.
“Dis gun b good”
Sketchdump. Sorry I haven’t been posting much lately. I’ve been getting back to traditional again and trying to re-understand the pony form a bit. I haven’t been satisfied with anything I’ve produced lately. I don’t even know if I got the joints right on Dash. Uggggh.
Lots of anger and sadness on this page. Sorry…

Spoiler-Spoiler-Nightmare Pony finished for the 30m Challenge tumblr (NSFW Sometimes)
haha, I don’t even know what I’m doing with colors anymore. *Flops around slinging color everywhere*
Next Time for something a little bit different - a fan comic starring some background ponies. Twilight and her friends may be the best of friends, but t…
I knew I was forgetting something on that reply. There is this comic by T-Brony on dA, where Twinkle (Twinkleshine) is characterized as “Moondancer,” Where she is a famous blogger on the ponynet. And she talks in third person as if she were referring to herself in the first episode of the show. The rest of the cast includes: Cloud Kicker, Cherry Berry, Linky, Sparkler, and Dizzy Twister.
It has some charm, kinda cute, and it flows in the theme of the first season of MLP. Good all around!
You have successfully peeked my interest in Twinkleshine. Does she have a fanon personality or other accepted information or any information at all? All I have right now is she's oft overlooked.
I think the backcard for her lists her as loving the movies and wanting to be a movie star. Every ask blog I’ve seen start up with her lasts less than a few posts, and every fanfic I’ve seen discards her at some point or leaves her out as well. I even recall Bangor MC 3rd telling me about a story with Lyra, Colgate and Twinkleshine escaping the Crystal Caverns after the royal wedding, and eventually Twinkleshine is left behind or something.
I haven’t looked too hard myself because I don’t want to muddle my ideas with someone elses’. There’s already a decently established Cloud Kicker fanfic series that has me wondering if mine will stand on it’s own well enough!
Short answer I guess is no. She’s pretty much a blank slate. She’s had a line here and there on the show, but nothing that would describe her personality or characterization.
I’m going to fix that eventually… But, meh it probably won’t be popular enough to be fanon accepted. :b
Apparently Twinkle:
…is now officially Twinkleshine, at least according to the Gameloft game.
I’m probably the only person who still thought she didn’t look anything like Twinkleshine, aren’t I…?
The game also has Forsythia in it.
So Twinkleshine’s toy was Pinkified.
Just like the first Princess Celestia toys.
Hasbro can make their toys look different from the show. They do that.I dunno, it really ticks me off. At least Celestia has a distinctive design and has the exact same cutie mark and has her picture on the box and is directly connected to the pony on the show by the name on the box. Twinkleshine sorta doesn’t have any of that at all.
(For those who wanna bring it up, I know the Cheerilee toy has a different cutie mark too. I own it. She’s Cheerilee on the box, it uses a picture of Cheerilee, she’s all the same colours, oh and there’s a big difference between Cheerilee’s marks and Twinkleshine’s marks - Cheerilee’s marks aren’t as generic as all hell. They use the exact same distinctive motif. The Twinkleshines even have different-shaped stars.)
Yup yup. I’ve noted these disparities as I’m working on something Twinkleshine related. Opting for the show’s colors most of the time, though I kinda like the multi-sized stars cutie mark more I think. I’m not totally sold on either though. As for the toy’s pink-ness, I have some odd feeling that either Hasbro knows or thinks pink toys sell better, they didn’t want her somehow being confused for a Celestia toy, or that pink plastic is simply cheaper to produce.
The rabbit hole of confusion goes a bit deeper though. Since she has only ever been named via a toy, which varies in her resemblance, there’s actually still some people who roll with Moondancer as her name. As if she were referring to herself in the first few moments of season 1 episode 1. I’ve also noticed that sometimes when she’s used in art that people don’t even catch on that she’s in the show at all. I’ve seen, “Oh that’s an interesting OC” said in context for Twinkleshine.
Furthermore, she’s actually a very common background pony, with more notable appearances than many others. Take for instance she’s the third ‘bridesmare’ in s2e25/26, but most people refer to the trio as “Lyra, Colgate and that other pony”
Poor thing. :<
Higher resolution versions of the final mlpartchallenges challenge.
Since the first one was only 10m, I was wondering what Colgatetail had up his/her sleeve, so I tried to keep it open for more characters. I simply got lucky with the order they were picked in. Also, I shifted into another style on the second picture. No idea what happened there.
Also, Colgatetail is looking to hand off the challenges blog to someone else to operate, check in with him if you want the details! (x)
