#stone mane

[skybrushus]

A relatively recent image from my Equestria dreamscape. As their relationship has grown Applebloom and Stone Mane have learned to count on each other. Both in the Waking World and the Dream Realm, and they've learned to trust each others abilities and skills. 

     Now Stone Mane is hardly helpless in either realm, but compared to Applebloom he can seem rather underpowered.  This has caused AB to be a bit overly protective of her stallion. The result is sometimes during expeditions out into the Waking World or the Dream Realm Applebloom can end up having a rather hair trigger. Often enough that Stone Mane is now unfazed by the sudden and dramatic appearance of Biblically Accurate Applebloom.

I hope you like what you see. Please help make more art like this possible by supporting me at Patreon

[Image ID: A digitally illustrated redesign of Fluttershy from My Little Pony: Friendship is magic. Flutteryshy is a fluffy yellow pegasus horse with skewbald patches of pale fur. Her mane and tail are green, and so long that they flow across the ground, appearing to have picked up twigs, leaves, and flowers while dragging. Her hair mostly covers her eye, which is blue. Her mane is pinned up partially to support a robin’s nest with eggs. Her cutie mark shows several pink butterflies. Her wings are bandaged with grey compressional tape. End ID.]

Fluttershy is something of an outcast among the ponies of Ponyville, since she lives on the outskirts of the town, never wears shoes, and talks to all her animals as if they understood her. Some of the local ponies even think she’s creepy, and the fillies make up rumors about her being a witch who cursed anyone who tries to go into the Everfree forest. That suits Fluttershy just fine, though. She doesn’t need that much company; she’s content with her small group of friends, most of which are woodland critters. Fluttershy is a bleeding heart whose compassion extends to nearly every living thing, since her appellation “The Arbor Pony” allows her to speak to and understand both animals AND plants alike.

Fluttershy was born with chronic joint pain that makes it extremely difficult for her to fly or channel any magic with her wings, so she moved down from the clouds to live somewhere where mobility would be easier. It still hurts to get up and move around some days, so Fluttershy prefers to take things slow, and knows the value of rest and relaxation. Fluttershy is so gentle, in fact, that a family of robins built a nest in her hair one day while she was in her garden, and she decided to let them stay there and styles her hair around the bird’s nest to keep it stable. What Fluttershy enjoys more than anything is a cup of lemongrass tea and a quiet sunny day at home. In that way, it might seem a little odd that her girlfriend is the fastest flyer in Equestria, but she wouldn’t trade her for the world.

i want to see dragon zhongli so badly like i have so many questions and thoughts

does he let the people of liyue pet his tail or is that considered sacrilege?

how about his mane i bet it’s super duper fluffy

i love that the rex lapis plushies depict him as a chubby creature

zhongli curled in a ball with his tail over him eyes…

i think rex lapis alters his form to be more approachable to humans but sometimes he towers over cities so imagine looking at mountain range and boom there’s rex lapis curled over the top

big claws big paws

big ole dragon eyes staring at you and he slowly blinks

the way i see it dragon zhongli is terrifying like the people of liyue are used to it cause he’s been there since birth but like an unrelenting stone cold gaze with no trace of emotion that always seems to be looking at you like they’ve come to accept that this gaze is like the gentlest thing ever and will always protect them but like that shit is scary

or rex lapis is playfully docile like his eyes are always soft and he always shrinks his size so the people can see him comfortably like he always makes himself more appealing and cute like to his people everyone else sees the horrors

BIG TAIL WITH THE FLUFF AT THE END

This is the piece I started during my most recent Picarto stream. That evening I was demonstrating my colored pencil, mixed media technique. So here's Applebloom and Stone Mane enjoy a milkshake together.

    This Saturday 11/25/23 starting at 5:30pm Pacific I'll be streaming on Picarto. With the Holiday Season upon us I'll be hosting my annual Holiday Fundraiser Stream.

    Once again I'll be raising money for Second Harvest of Silicon Valley Link . With the cost of everything going up, many families and individuals are feeling the economic squeeze even more this Holiday Season.

    If we reach a milestone goal of $1,500 USD raised I'll throw the switch and stream will be NSFW. If this goal is reached before 5:30pm Pacific the whole stream will be NSFW.If you wish to make an early donation here is the Link.

Important. If you do make a donation and plan to be in the stream, include your Picarto username in a note when you donate. As in past years we'll be drawing names of donors and giving away the art I will be doing that night. Of course there are rules for winning a piece:

You must have donated before or during the stream.

You must have a registered Picarto username and be in the chat during stream.

You can only win once.

So join us for an evening art and stories as we raise money for a good cause.

Musing on a Hat and the Hair Beneath

So, the Misdreavus line is more for contests than combat. Not that their stats are bad or their move pools suck. However, being mono-type is debilitating for general damage output, and they aren't defensively powerful outside of the 3 immunities and a weakness that really knows where the weakest point of the line is, Physical Defense.

Iono giving a Levitate Pokemon Tera Electric is pure evil. 'Nuff said on that.

Flutter Mane is a strange case, and I don't know how to feel about it, yet. I think I like it better than when I first saw it in the leaks, since the dex image sucks as an introduction to its design. I will be trying to Shiny hunt it, in spite of having Violet.

Flutter Mane, Scream Tail, and Sandy Shocks all prove one thing. The Past Paradox Pokemon are from long before Legends: Arceus, because evolution stones clearly don't interact with these 'mon. They may not even be naturally-occuring in the world at that point. And Mega Stones are irradiated Evolution Stones. I want to see where this thread goes, and we'll never find out more.

On a completely unrelated note, I'm analyzing the full dex for a new Top 10 Pokemon. I don't think I'll make a video, but I might post it here, when I'm done with it.

I have long wanted to write a headcanon where high demons have lesser forms, so take a walk with me on this:

Imagine that the brothers are fighting with each other and one of them takes a serious hit, like, somebody's left hook got them right in the jaw and it was brutal. They fall to the ground, stone cold, and... just. Poof into a tiny little critter. Like a verison of their familiar. And they can't retake human form until they've rested and healed their wounds.

I'm doing that.

Lucifer becomes this fat-ass, little peacock. He's like one of those rotund Chocobo from the Final Fantasy universe, you just want to pick him up and squeeze him but he's slightly too heavy for that. His feathers are black, save for the tail which have black, red, blue, and green markings. If something makes him "Poof!" then he'll hide away in the Castle because he refuses to let his brothers ever see him in that state. MC can visit him, though, and he'll coo and get all fluffy whenever they pet his tummy.

Mammon turns into a three-eyed raven, but not fat like Luci. He basically becomes a bigger verison of one of his familiars, he's about the size of an eagle. For being the second strongest he gets "Poof!-ed" rather often because he gets caught up in so many fights. Most of the time, he's just a bystander then some stray shot hits him and suddenly he's squawking everybody's ear off! Hilariously, he's arguably smarter in this form so when he's stuck as a bird, his grades actually improve (if anyone can read his actual chicken scratch penmanship).

Levi becomes a snake. Duh. He has similar markings along his back to the colorful scales on his neck in his demon form. He isn't even the length of your average scarf, so MC can drape him behind their neck easily and he doesn't get in the way. He's absolutely MISERABLE like this, though, because he has no hands to play games with. He can get extra clingy to people if he's feeling cold, but MC has to invite him to share their body heat because he's too shy to signal what he wants.

As much as Satan would love to be a cat, he becomes a little unicorn (Sorry, I didn't make the lore). He's about the size of one of those miniature horses, but don't be fooled. He will snap your kneecaps and he's at perfect height to rear-kick his brothers right in the crotch. His coat is black but his tail, mane, and the underside of his horn are all his signature green. If he every gets "Poof!-ed!" he's big mad, so he'll spend the entire time trying to kick and spear his brothers so they have to suffer along with him. He's the cause of a lot of chain "Poof!-ings."

Asmo becomes the smallest, cutest scorpion you ever did see. Well, as cute as scorpions can be. His whole body becomes hot pink and he has the biggest widdle eyes (think those jumping spiders who wear raindrops on their heads type energy). He's also venomous as all hell, so his brothers HAVE to make sure that they continously call him "small, cute, and adorable" lest they suffer a week's worth of paralytic toxin. He can fit the palm of a hand and makes MC tie a little bow around his tail so he doesn't feel too bad about being under-dressed.

Beel, unfortunately, becomes a fly. A big fly (by fly standards), but a fly nonetheless. You wouldn't even know that it's him if he weren't traffic cone orange. Literally everyone panics when he gets "Poof!-ed" because it would only take some bozo with a swatter to put an end to the sweetest brother... Belphie never lets Beel out of his sight and even has a tiny leash so he can keep track of him if they have to go out. He's a lot easier to feed like this, but everyone has to resist that automatic urge to smack him away from their dinner plates.

Belphie ironically has the largest lesser form out of his brothers. He's a cow, more specifically a bull, but there's nothing special about him aside from the navy fur. He is a full grown bull and he loves to lord it over the others if they all get "Poof-ed!" at once. Also, good luck getting him to do ANYTHING in this form. He is a bull. If he does not want to move, he will not be moving. Not even Beel can carry him like this. He's the only brother who doesn't mind getting "Poof-ed!" all that much because of it.
