Finally it’s uploaded! I worked on this for 7 Hours and 13 Minutes and now it’s finally here, just in the nick of time!
This picture is a gift for
DinkyUniverse. Three years ago today, something important and special happened. And this picture is here as a commemoration of this important day and to demonstrate that good old times are neither forgotten, nor gone.
There is not a specific story behind this picture but, if you want, you can see it as a follow-up to this comic:

Of all the MLP: FiM fanarts I’ve ever drawn, I worked the longest on this picture. Unlike my previous pictures from the last six years, I actively practiced this one first before I created the final drawing. The practice sketches alone took place over the course of 2 Hours and 24 Minutes. But this picture is for an occasion that could not be more important, so I pulled all the stops and ensured that I will really draw it to the best of my current abilities.
I am happy with how it turned out, even though I messed up Lily’s cutie mark. For some reason, I have a hard time with drawing cutie marks, they always end up much too big. Drawing in such a small size is something I just can’t do (yet).
I have also uploaded a WIP picture and my practice sketches to show the progression of this piece and all the work that went into it. I have included the links to all that below.
