A trio of G3 ponies I had done before, but with more interesting backgrounds and poses (instead of just pure white/not transparent/basic standing).
Top to bottom: Daisy Paisley, Morning Monarch, Glitterbelle. (The stuff in Morning Monarch's mane is meant to be tinsel.)
One! (more info in alt text)
(the inspiration for #2 is this post by @anadraws! mine's more on the nose, but yeah)
(#3 was going to have an outfit, but I thought it looked better without. the magic arms are inspired by some gijinkas)
NATG XIV - Day 4
Prompt: Draw a pony on a wild goose chase / Draw a pony stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Silverstream must reach the top of the endless stairs if she's to have any hope of retrieving her necklace... if only she knew about the backwards long jump.
NATG XIII - Day 10 Prompt: Draw a pony doing something you like to do in real life (outside of drawing) / Draw a pony trying something new. Misty tries her hoof at surfing... it's not going to end well, to say the least. For this one, I mainly used the wet watercolor brush in Medibang, which is why it looks a little strange. (I accidentally used the pencil tool when doing her mane, tail, and possibly her ear and horn - it occurred while I was trying to correct a mistake on one of the layers.)
An idea from last week, based on BFDIA 15.
Ploomette, one of the toyline exclusive G4 ponies. This drawing is based on her Glimmer Wings toy, which also came with a little peacock friend.
NATG XIII - Day 13 Prompt: Draw a pony up to their old tricks / Draw a pony acting fishy! Twiggie commits a classic crime... or she would, if Enilapo didn't interrupt her. Who is this "Opaline Arcana" you speak of? (The fish costume was inspired by the many literal interpretations of the latter prompt that I saw.)
Here we have Sunny's mom (or Velvet, as I'm calling her) as an alicorn, sleeping peacefully in a mysterious bedroom, dreaming of the daughter she left all those years ago.
Experimented with a more loose/"messy" coloring style; the overall style was semi-inspired by Kirby's Dream Land 3 (crayon/pastel aesthetic).
NATG XIV - Day 12
Prompt: Draw a pony exploring a place lost to legend / Draw a pony off the beaten path.
A weird interpretation of Skyros, based on the tapestry from "The Lone Alicorn". Sunny is talking to one of the alicorns in said tapestry, Izzy and Misty are just chilling in the rainbow water, Hitch is watching Sparky, and Pipp and Zipp are just there. (Partly inspired by the celebration pictures from Kirby Star Allies; Sunny is smaller because this was intended to have a chibi-ish style, but that didn't really pan out. This took me hours to make... "Alternate versions" under the cut.)

Submission for Equestria Daily's Applejack Day. This piece uses a slightly different style, with thinner outlines, different eyes and muzzle, and no eyebrows.
just drawings based on things I like, yeah (you can also find me here: https://www.deviantart.com/mintwhistle)
