Some Tango stuff · 6:09am Oct 24th, 2015
Mommy, Barricade is being too creepy again. Make him stop. 
I swear that pony is going to end up forcing me to have the Derpy story with adult tags if this keeps up. 
I by accident, somehow, I still don't know how, managed to write up chapter 5 before writing chapter 4. Well actually I had written chapter 5 as chapter 4, but it just didn't sit right with me, something was missing and then it clicked yesterday, there was a chapter missing between. So I ended up changing chapter 4 into chapter 5 and am writing a new chapter 4. Confused yet? I sure am. 
I'm actually hoping to finish up Tango this weekend.
I was trying to make some proper designs for the various characters appearing in this story, but wish I had a better tool than Pony creator, it just doesn't reflect well enough some of the characters, especially Barricade and Barbell. I did try sketching Barricade myself and the results can be found on my DA account, but eh, still doesn't look quite right.
For those curious, Barricade and his twin brother Private (who appears in the Time Keeper) are roughly the size of Prince Blueblood (or Shining Armor, I think they are both roughly the same size), they are moderately big stocky unicorns. Barricade is well toned and muscular because he uses his gym, Private is not early as fit looking and does have a bit of a belly thanks to his pancake eating. Barricade is generally presentably groomed, Private looks like he hates brushes with burning passion (that is, mane and tail looks most of the time rather unkempt)
Tango is actually slightly taller than Barricade but much thinner, think Mr Cake or Trenderhoof thin. He's no slouch though, he uses the fact that he's an Earth Pony to his advantage when it comes down to it.
Barbell is a big mare, nearly same size as Barricade but is even fitter looking than him since she doesn't just run the counter at the gym but also some of the exercise classes. Her brother Blue is closer to Big Mac size, if not bit bigger. (I was actually tempted to retcon him into Troubleshoes size, but decided against it)
Vanilla is an average mare in both size and weight, but compared to Tango, Barbell and Barricade she might appear smaller. She is not plump but her features are soft and rounded.
Well that's it for now
Until later.
