16 Fanart! · 8:35pm Aug 21st, 2022
And lots of it! I've added these to the individual chapter notes, but with as much work as RoyaleFanaticGal has put into all of these, I wanted to give her an artist showcase blog as well. I also want to express my thanks. 
She's drawn all sixteen of the main characters, as well as some of the supporting cast. What all of the below characters have in common is they were all available in the toyline, but never appeared in an episode of Friendship is Magic. All of the main cast members were available as brushables, while the supporting characters (Bumblesweet, Cherry Spices, & Sweetie Blue) seen here were all blind bag exclusives.
Before we move onto the art, RoyaleFanaticGal is also currently having an art contest.
I'm not committing to participating, but I plan to draw something. The question is whether it'll be good enough to submit to the contest or not. I'm not exactly known for my drawing skills...
Without further ado, the fanart!
First up is Cherry Pie, and I've started working on the expansion to her chapter:
Daisy Dreams:
Dewdrop Dazzle (and Snowcatcher):
Diamond Rose's chapter extension is posted and has been blogged about:
Diamond Rose & Lily Blossom:
Feathermay's chapter extension is posted and has been blogged about:
Flitterheart's chapter extension is posted and she'll be the next one I blog about in the near future:
Flitterheart & Sunny Rays:
Honeybuzz (and her twin sister, Bumblesweet):
Lily Blossom's chapter expansion has been finished and is now posted. Expect her blog post to come after Flitterheart's:
Lily Blossom & Diamond Rose:
Lulu Luck:
Ploomette:
Plumsweet (including one with her bestie, Cherry Spices):
Rainbow Flash (including one with her bestie, Sweetie Blue):
Snowcatcher, as an alicorn (no, she hasn't ascended, but she dreams of it):
Starbeam Twinkle:
Sunny Rays:
And the as yet unseen sixteenth pony, Sweetie Swirl. Her chapter is nearing completion and I anticipate posting it in the next few months. I'm hoping to have another surprise ready to go at the same time. In the meantime, here's a sneak peek at the only cast member we've yet to meet:

You're welcome, and thank you for taking the time to create!
I wonder if any female human diplomats and VIPs ever ask Ploom who does her mane and tries to poach them.

You could ask her and see what she says...

I tweaked the wording to change it to asking Ploom the question directly and added it to the ask blog. I hope you're okay with this? I really like answering questions about this series because it helps build the background more and gives me an idea of what everyone wants to see get expanded. You never know what's going to come out in the story as a direct result of the interaction between author and readers via the ask blogs. For example, before you asked this question, Daffidazey didn't have a place in this setting and now she does. We'll probably see her interacting with Ploomette come Act II as a direct result of your inquiry. Thank you for asking questions - I really do appreciate it, and implore you (and everyone else) to ask more of them.
Dan: Have any female human diplomats and/or VIPs ever asked you who does your mane and then tried to poach them?
Ponies tend to have significantly more hair than humans, and that’s not even counting our tails. My first few years spent on Earth were based out of a hotel while our consulate was being designed, approved, and built. I had almost no staff with me to cut down on expenses. I continued forsaking having personal staff even once the portal opened. Instead of a personal cook, I hired one for the entire building. Likewise, grooming is important, so I have a manestylist on staff for everypony working at the consulate. Appearances are everything in my line of work – we have to look perfect every single day, and Daffidazey does wonders with our manes and tails.
A number of humans have commented on it, and Daffidazey has tried working on some human females, but they just don’t have the volume of hair we ponies do. Suffice it to say, as good as her work is, she’s certainly had a few offers. But she’s continued to turn them down.
Nice, congratulations, and good luck if you do enter the contest!
