Commission for

This is an illustration for a fanfic called "Sanguine Kindness" that is being written by Rated Ponystar.

You can read the fanfic right here -> Sanguine Kindness.

This illustration belongs to Chapter 2, Sorrows and Awakenings.

This is the tomb of Fluttershy, The Element of Kindness

May the love in her heart always be known to all creatures of the earth

May the heavens themselves sing as they welcome her into their embrace

May all know of Equestria’s own angel who wlll never be forgotten

Rest in peace beloved pony of Equestria

This one is a break from the norm that this fanfic's illustrations have maintained until now. I think the versatility of camera movement in movies opens a lot of doors to create atmosphere and draw the viewer into the story. There is a lot of horror movie tropes used in how Rated and I framed the panels in this comic. The ominous-looking mausoleum; the slanted camera angle; the face close up followed by the opening of the blood-shot eyes. It's impossible not to use these tropes, they work real well in horror movies not to use them here.

Also, that goddamn mausoleum took way too long to complete. I will have nightmares with hairless pegasi statues for the rest of my life.
