Ciao. Musta na. Welcome. Have a look around.
Normally I'd ask that you don't write a comment on my profile solely for the purpose of thanking for a fave, llama, etc. as instead, I would rather thank you for making nice art or being so kind. If you do anyway I probably won't particularly mind and may even reply, maybe.
Otherwise, I read every comment I receive, even if I may not respond directly. If I respond, it's usually to direct queries that I feel I have a proper answer to, which is because I don't want comments on my uploads to be mostly from myself. Of course, I genuinely try to appreciate the various comments I receive, even if I don't actually say so.
Other info to see first:
I don't do requests or commissions.
Generally, I don't make anything involving:
Derpy Hooves, Rainbow Dash, or Vinyl Scratch
Non-platonic romance/shipping
NSFW and/or Adult-oriented work
About me:
I'm Ryan, and I'm from San Francisco, California/USA; "ChainChomp2" is one of my names, but the specific name I go by on here. On this account, you'll mostly find content related to My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic (MLPFiM). English is my native language, while I studied Spanish (Español) as a second language in school, and have been exposed to Filipino (Tagalog) for much of my life, not that I can understand it. Just in case you'll communicate to me in any of these languages.
Other than My Little Pony, I'm into civil aviation and traveling the world, while on the side I enjoy a Nintendo game or follow the artistic gymnastics scene.

About my DA and its content:
Between 2013 and 2020, the featured character/avatar was Crescent Moon, a canonical background pony from MLPFiM, as I did not have my own OC. In March 2020, I unveiled Topaz Tracker as my OC, and until this time, I stated that I did not upload or publish content on MLPFiM OCs.
Much of what's posted here is traced from or heavily modeled on the art style of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. This can consist of anything from a high quality image or resource of a character directly from a frame of the show, or fan art inspired by it.
I don't make bases (the ones you use with MSPaint, GIMP, etc.), and I don't endorse them either; I ask that no bases are made from anything I post here. You might however still find bases of my older uploads circulating, from before I had stated any type of stance on the matter. You may also refer to my longer statement on bases.
Who can really say? My gallery has various examples of characters in the same mane-do and tail style that predate or come after each other, that they can all be alternate versions of each other, or even just be their own thing. Whether they are or not doesn't really matter to me.
A lot of the background ponies in the show were recolored from each other in the sense that Doctor Whooves himself was no exception.
I'd recognize that Guardians of Harmony wing-pack anywhere.
On that note the contradiction you mention reminds me of the similar inconsistencies of some of the foals that appeared in the finale, which had visibly female designs but were male characters.
