Spectacular Art and Another Milestone · 11:51pm Jun 19th, 2015
With luck, I'll be posting Chapter Twenty-Five of Sunset Shimmer: Element Bearer in a few short hours. I hope that you can set aside some time this weekend to check it out.
But first, I'd like to call your attention to an incredible work of art created by Dane of Celestia. After his wonderful work on "Three of Destiny", which serves as this story's cover art, I gave him a new challenge. I asked him to recreate part of the scene at the close of Chapter Nineteen when Adagio Dazzle carried Apple Bloom into Shrieking Raven's cabin at Lake Piebald. I am biased, but I think he did an incredible job. He captured Adagio's complex emotions, and made incredible use of the night sky to put everything together. Below is his composition, entitled "Reflection of Innocence."
Thanks to everyone for taking me on this incredible journey! You all had a part in Sunset Shimmer: Element Bearer achieving 50,000 story views this week!
I'm looking forward to it, but I'll be a little bit reading it. Off at a convention this weekend - busy time tomorrow with my other Hasbro-related hobby.
And dang that's some awesome art. Consider it a credit to your skills that folks are making art for your story; it's that good.
Needs moar cheese-hair,
Holy poops that is
goodamazing art *-*3164628 Have fun at the convention! I'm sure that it will be busy, but a lot of fun. You'll have to let me know what those sort of things are like, because I think I'm becoming sufficiently brony-fied to consider attending an MLP-related convention at some point. Dane of Celestia's art is beyond excellent, and I'm glad that he's taken the time to read some of the crucial scenes. I know it's summertime and everyone's busy, so I hope you enjoy the chapter when you get a few free moments!
3165039 Can one ever have enough cheese-hair? I hope you're enjoying your weekend and that the summer is off to a good start for you!

3166429 I'mma give you credit for sharing this with me
Though a shoutout to the artist who made it as well! /o/
3166429 Conventions in general are expensive, but fun. Definitely worth your time. Alas, I've yet to go to one related to ponies, but I hope to one day.
Man... That art is amazing!!! SO Much love for it!!!
So, I don't suppose Sunset Shimmer: Element Bearer is ever coming back? Because it was really good. I greatly enjoyed reading it.
