    A picture of things to come.

    There's one picture of art for "Sunshine and Fire" that I never got around to posting. It's a sketch of Celestia and Luna made by this fellow in return for something I would probably have given for free. There's actually a few alternate versions of it that might be lost forever by now. It is just a sketch, but captured my description very well and

    Thoughts on Equestria Girls

    I don't usually post about this kind of stuff, but I have a lot of thoughts and this is as good a venue as any.

    Anniversary

    I've been writing Sunshine and Fire for three years now. June 2011 was when I started formulating ideas and July 3rd is when I put out the first chapter, though it was a few more months before I got around to Fimfiction.net.

    I won't suggest that time has flown by quickly even jokingly; I know it hasn't.

    The viability of making changes to earlier material.

    Hello all.

    This post isn’t just random rambling. There’s actually something I’d like your opinions on.

    Do you think I should go back and improve the first few chapters of “Sunshine and Fire” a little?

    Writing female characters

    This is a post of random thoughts and ramblings. It's tangentially related to "Sunshine and Fire" in that it collates some issues I've had on my mind writing it, but I'm not going to tag it for subscribers. It's a bit too incidental for that, and probably not really up everyone's alley anyway. But it's stuff I want to get off my chest, and I'd be interested in hearing other perspectives on the

OCs in "Sunshine and Fire" (redux). · 8:01pm Aug 31st, 2012

These are approximations of the original characters in "Sunshine and Fire," created using generalzoi's pony creator software thing. I figured that since I went to the trouble of creating these (for some reason), I might as well display them here, right? I don't really know if tagging blogposts with various trivia is something other authors do, so forgive me if you got an unwanted notification from this. You'll notice they all lack cutie marks - that's because I simply do not have the patience to find suitable images and splice them on the characters' asses.

Brainy Bright

An earth pony magical theorist and inventor of a spell for creating dimensional portals. Brainy Bright is renown for his brilliance, but has grown discontent with the political and social realities of Equestria. His cutie mark is a magical rune with an unknown meaning.

Glint Hardhoof

Loner and former earth pony rebel. Glint was the head of the Apple Underground for decades, but feels he failed as a leader and never accomplished anything. The wise and stoic Glint feels for the down-trodden earth ponies. He does not regard himself as a member of Applejack's group, but gives her advice and recruits members for her all the same. His cutie mark is gray horseshoe.

Emerald Hope

An earth pony environmentalist and steward of the Apple Underground. Emerald Hope is neurotic and uncomfortable with responsibility, but passionate about protecting nature and masterful at crunching numbers. Her cutie mark is a watering can.

Chequy

A Zebrican assassin working with the Apple Underground. Born to a pegasus soldier and a zebra mare, the dark and serious Chequy was brought up by rebels fighting Queen Celestia's occupation forces in Zebrica. She was, however, shunned for her heritage and eventually assigned to Equestria to work with the new allies of the zebra resistance - the Apple Underground. Her cutie mark is a throwing glaive.

Brightsmile

The bastard son of one of Queen Celestia's top generals. The Apple Underground kidnapped and held Brightsmile hostage to blackmail his father, but found that the father didn't care one bit about his son's wellbeing. Since then, the educated but somewhat pervy Brightsmile has become an informal member of the Underground. His cutie mark is a shooting star.

Prime Minister Gelding

The Prime Minister of Equestria and top adviser to Queen Celestia. The clinically dispassionate Gelding is almost legendary in Equestria, but nopony seems to know much about him. Although incapable of magic, Gelding was the head of the unicorn Secret Police for as long as anypony could remember, until his position was ousted by Celestia's protege Daylight Sparkle. His cutie mark is a black wheel.

Duke Blueblood (okay, so he's not an OC)

General of Equestria's ground forces. Although lacking much skill as a leader, a distant relation to the Queen has given Blueblood a strong sense of superiority. He is known for his dalliances with various highborn ladies. Blueblood has a large facial scar and is blind in one eye - his lesson not to anger Celestia. His cutie mark is a compass rose.

Duchess Redsky

Commander of Equestria's Air Force. Redsky is the most important pegasus in the world. She is known to be a capable fighter, quick to anger and utterly vicious. Redsky is not like other ponies. Her cutie mark is a black feather dripping with blood.

Agent Striker

Operative of the Secret Police. Striker is a jovial but ruthless pony, with a reputation for enjoying his work. He is the owner of the dragon Blitz. Striker is also a Gelding loyalist. His cutie mark is a bolt of lightning, bent like a horseshoe.

I'm more than happy to get a notification from you. :yay:

You'll notice they all lack cutie marks - that's because I simply do not have the patience to find suitable images and splice them on the characters' asses.

You could always ask someone else to do it... or draw them yourself in MS Paint, or something. :twilightsheepish:

Brony. wat r u doin? Brony. UPDATE YER BUCKIN STORY.:flutterrage::twilightangry2:

Has Redsky ever eaten meat? If she has, did she like the taste? Because if she did it really wouldn't surprise me.
