    If

    Sometimes, I make the mistake of looking at my stories here and their comment sections, and I get that old itch to make pony stuff again. I had a lot of fun doing it, after all, and I do love to entertain. I still have a lot of trouble getting any creative work done, of course. I haven't even had any real interest in it for quite a while, now. But even beyond that... well...

    A Collab Relic

    A few years back, Samey90 and I started writing a story. A story about a little group of young pony friends hanging out at a lake. We did most of the writing on it, but it kinda fell by the wayside. I drifted away from ponies and retired, and it looked as though the fic might never see the light of day. But now, that story has finally been

    A Surprise Shadowbolts Story

    Do you like the Crystal Prep Shadowbolts? Do you like stories with romance in them? Do you like a grittier and more realistic (and cynical) take on Equestria Girls? Then you might want to have a look at the story below the break. I think you'll like what you find.

    And no, it's definitely not the Shadowbolts Adventures series, if that's what you guessed by who's doing this promotion.

    The New Fimfic

    Is it April again already? Because this new site update is a joke.

    Edit: Okay, it's not a complete joke. There's actually a lot of good stuff in this new update. Bugfixes and cool stuff galore. Buuuut there are also some not-so-good changes, and the flood of new code seems to have broken... everything, at one point or another.

"Hey, Bootsy, don't you ever post anything but art blogs anymore?"

"No."



I don't often share cover art I've done on this blog, but hey, it's Equestria Girls Zecora. That's kinda a rare thing, at least when it comes to movie-style artwork. Plus, Zecora is just cool. Here's her as a fortune teller, which she appears as in Shadowbolts Adventures: Choices (in case you somehow didn't know, I do all the artwork for that series). The mohawk... didn't really suit the role, hence its absence. I think the longer hair looks cute on her, though, so oh well.

And hey, if you haven't read Shadowbolts Adventures, get on that (starting from the beginning, of course). It's a pretty good series that fleshes out some of the least-developed characters in Friendship Games.

She looks neat! The thick striped locks give her kind of a Medusa-ish vibe.

Zecora appeared without her mohawk in her Nightmare Night costume in Luna Eclipsed if I recall correctly

She did, though I think that was a wig, given the colors. But that's what inspired this hairstyle, yeah.

What would Zecora even be in the Equestria Girls universe anyway? An ethics teacher or something?

I've actually been sitting around trying to think about what role she might have outside of a magical negro, but I ended up getting a bit drunk and couldn't really think of anything. I'll have to get back to you on that, 'cause this is an interesting topic that, if I can figure out, might be cool to explore if I ever write again.
