Here is the castle of the royal pony sisters: 20% less crumbly edition, because the original was too crumbled. I swear, they made castles out of nature valley granola bars back then. Anyways, the original was also very ambiguous so it left alot of room for interpretations, but I also used some ideas from [link] . Completion time of 14 hours over a period of 3 days.

I can honestly say I've never been as curious as to what their old castle looked like before, until I've seen this.

There is very little artwork of it out there, but I was inspired to draw this by a piece done by an artist who simply goes by "Moe". Check him out if you want!

Does this "Moe" have a DA?

No one knows.. he's a mysterious one. As far as I know he doesn't. All his pieces on EQD simply have "Moe" for the source. His stuff is all over google. Pretty sure he stopped making art for a while, though. It's a shame! [link]

:iconfangasmplz: Wow!!!

Moe is essentially a Ghost Artist now.

Wandering the cyber streets looking for shows that need to be punished on a canvas, and when their found... his/her all is given into full canvas beatings.

This is absolutely amazing. There's so much detail and I could spend a good fifteen minutes just staring at it, catching all the little things here and there. I love the mysticism tone to it, what with all the fog and ivy all over the place. Definitely my favorite piece of all your stuff.

Thanks! I really appreciate it, since this one seems to not be as well-received as some of my other work, haha :D

Words, mere words cannot describe how this resonates with me! it sets an atmosphere of both mystery, of old and different times, and of a path that is nearing its end (as it did on the show).

I apologize, but I cannot add much more to my thoughts... and I am usually NOT stingy with my words! Bravo!

Thanks! I liked doing this one because the original was very vague so it left alot of room for interpretation. I'm glad it works for you!

indeed. Much like your other artwork, in reminds me a wee bit of Dark Souls (well the old "New Londo" ruins to be specific).

Capturing beauty that is destroyed is a difficult thing to do, but when it is pulled off, it comes out wonderfully! Once again, great work, and yes, I found your interpretation wonderful!
