This is basically best part of this day. Posting that piece.



Plenty of personal blabber ahead, so you read this on your own risk:

I wasn't planning on drawing that one to begin with. Actually sometime earlier, during previous week, I had few ideas for comics. 2 or 3 short comics I think. What hit me though was that each of those was more or less cynical commentary on either, certain story threads seen in the show or some fandom opinions I met with recently. It was this moment of realisation where I felt bit sad and unsatisfied with my ideas, because I didn't want to create another art just to express some criticisim or jab on one thing or the other. Then I reminded myself of "Fame and Misfortune" episode and gave it a watch. Man, I know some people like it, some don't, but to me this episode is so darn satisfying. So much of various pointless fandom drama brought up for the Mane 6 to exprience. And yet in the end it felt even better seeing how they realized it's not point being bothered by all the hubbub some of their fans bring. The positivity despite all the nonsense happening around - that's what touched me. In the end, I decided to draw something based on that episode instead of any of the comic I was thinking about drawing. And what's better than drawing those six wonderful characters that make this show what it is. I hope you like it, to me it felt very therapeutic to draw that piece, focusing on optimistic stuff since for the next season I will probably abandon all the episode ranking gimmick, semi-reviews and doing one drawing per episode on weekend to weekend basis. Just enjoy the show for what it is in basic manner. Also this is probably my last digital drawing for a while, in the nearest future I want to focus bit more on my traditional drawings since I have been neglecting that for quite long, and I miss it.
