My God, Rainbowdash, your hair! Your hair! What a pain in the-- oh right! Why does she have an ax on her butt? If you get the reference, good on you, if not...
Blame these people. [link]

Hooray for hand-drawn ponies! Screw you Photoshop, with your fancy, fancy, oh so pretty vectors! (God, I wish I had Photoshop... ;_; ) Anyway, enjoy the best pony, now made better due to axes!

Heh. Someone linked this pic to me once, and we somehow got discussing making it the other kind of "axe". This pic came out of all that: i.imgur.com/HpfAO.png =p


I have to say, that axe makes one wicked looking electric guitar :XD:

Hard to choose, one handed axes you can swing easier, but two handed axes are heavier and do more damage... I'll have to go with two handed axes. Maximum Carnage!! >: D

The look on RD's face... Nicely done. I now only have one question remaining...

Two-handed axe, or two one-handed axes?

I'm not one who's big on weaponry, but admittedly, I'd totally rock a RD inspired axe as well. X)

That is all kinds of awesome. I love how the axe can also look like a bad-ass electric guitar if you squint right. Of course it is a double-axe...

Thanks. It was a long while ago that I did this one, so I don't remember if the guitar thing was intentional or not. ... I'm gonna claim it as intentional... so I look clever-rer. ;P Thanks for your comment. :)
