Worse, she thought. She had succeeded in giving it a good laugh.
It held up it’s damaged hoof and waggled it tauntingly as it locked eyes with her, laughing in a deranged facsimile of her own voice. “You were saying?!” it laughed, “Not bad for a ‘bargain bin knockoff by some hack who didn’t even remember the wings’, eh?!”
Twilight steeled herself, refusing to give it the satisfaction of knowing she was scared. “You’re still just a cheap sketch. That’s all you ever will be. No match for the one and only original.”
The sketch laughed even harder, almost falling into hysterics. “What makes you think you’re the original?! Maybe I am, or maybe neither of us are! Maybe you’re whole life is a lie! Maybe you’re just the dolled up facsimile of some sketch! How would you ever know?!”
Twilight frowned, hoping she could at least hold her own until help arrived. This thing was dangerously insane and she had to do something about it fast, before it hurt somepony. It honestly thought it was possible that she wasn’t the original Twilight Sparkle and that one of these abominable sketches was.
There’s no telling what crazy things it might do, thinking such a ridiculous thing was possible.
(I don’t really know. I forgot the original reason I made this batshit-crazy-looking Twi and decided to get creative with it.)
Little unfinished but i could finish the rest
inspiration can be crazy like that sometimes I guess
Yep. I even still have the non-sketchified version in all it’s untouched wingless / cutie-markless glory. I drew a little pair of wings on graph paper, scanned them and cut them out to put them into place, and got the idea from the juxtaposition of how different they looked.
I actually really like the effect too. I’m probably going to end up doing a few more with this “species” once I get my backlog dialed back a bit.
wait, you just forgot to draw the wings, and it then inspired you to create a battle between evil insane sketch twilight clones and the princess?
I have like a library of horns, ears, eyes, cutie marks, etc for that express purpose. Otherwise I get like halfway through and it’s “dammit Twilight Sparkle has a horn >:[”
This time I rolled with it because if I point it out myself it’s not technically a mistake anymore, right? Right?
“TAKE IT EASY, IT’S JUST A DRAWING!”
I just earlier today managed to customize a brush in sai that replicates my pencil lines well enough to fix stuff I leave out. :D
@DragonBoi471
Oh man. It’s too bad the guy can’t just take it for what it is, y’know?
But lol, I’m the hack who forgot the wings because that’s totally what happened. I don’t have the original sketch (just the scan) so I just drew some wings and scanned them as well. I got the idea to do the whole weird half-n-half thing from trying to size them before vectoring.
Also I totally didn’t forget the cutie mark too
@Badumsquish
Yes, that is correct. Kwark is a vector artist, much like Badum…however, there’s one defining trait about him that makes him an absolute butt in the fandom: he hates Twilicorn.
When I read “bargain bin knockoff by some hack who didn’t even remember the wings.”, Kwark was the first thing that came to my mind, so I couldn’t resist making a joke about it.XD
Also, my original comment has a reference to Terminator 2.
there’s a somewhat infamous artist named kwark who is super ultra anti twilicorn
at least I’m pretty sure that’s what the reference is
CyberKwark?
@Dirty Bit
Gah.
Well, next she might start telling the ponies that they don’t exist and are just a tv show born from a lucrative toy industry.
@Zebasiz
Nope, this one’s a “Sketch”, a murderously insane copy of Twilight made by some talentless hack who forgot her wings ;D
@Bionomaly
Twilight learned the last time she tried it on an opponent that scissoring them doesn’t always work…
Sure, until you get a sorcerer’s apprentice scenario.
@Keith Mowz
@Solitude
Common guys everyone knows that scissors beat paper.
And an eraser.
And if that fails, go for the nuclear option and get some Dip.
“I am the ultimate pony, Sketchlight Sparkle! I AM THE REAL TWILIGHT SPARKLE!!!
Also: if magic fails, try fire. Lots of fire.
