@R_Dart The art direction & character design did struck a cord with many people, me included. You've absolutely nailed it! I did unhealthy amount of MLP related artwork years ago, there was something extremely friendly & approachable in the art style which just begged for emulation.
I know no one really cares. But here're my character doodles for a fan project I do when I want to destress & unwind from work. Plus practice screenwriting, design, boarding and such for portfolio & practice. It's a lot of fun; I am unsure I'll ever release it publicly.

My first "professional" commission, which's still in publishing hell. I was allowed to share a segment from the background of larger illustration- an Eurohippus family. (Please don't be harsh, I did entire piece over weekend, it was my first time illustrating something proper)
