I like the composition of this piece very much, and I love how you took the effort to make all the Twilights very visually distinct. In the end, think that what holds the piece back most for me is a perceived inconsistency between how the faces look to me. On one end of the scale, I absolutely love how Princess Twilight looks. Her eyes are cute, but her smile is just a little creepy, which is perfect! But on the other hand, Human Twilight is giving me some uncanny valley vibes, and I'm honestly not sure why, because there's nothing majorly stylistically different between the two to me. Everypony else kinda falls on the spectrum between these two. Sorry I couldn't be more clear! But thank you very much for entering!
I like the variety of Twilights. It's a good representation of the story! I assume the tiny winged one is a Breezie? The composition and facial expressions work well with the “target” in the center. Bunch of nice details: the clipboard and tape measure, the fangs on changeling!Twilight. Not as sure about the look of the human, but the intent is clear enough. Pretty solid hatching and linework, though I think the scan may have eaten some of it.
Why does lab unicorn Twilight have both a modern-style pen and a feather quill?

U Gonna Get Silvered!
‘Grats to Anon and Matt, and thanks for the silver and positive comments!
This was the strongest visual idea I got from this round, but my lazy brain did nothing with it until the last day. I then had the choice of trying to execute some polished art that was much restricted in scope, or just taking my rough draft sketch and running with it; I chose the latter. I’m happiest with the expressions on Princess Twi and Lab Twi, though I acknowledge that the whole piece is rough. This is also the first time I’ve tried to draw EqG Twi; perhaps her apparent lack of enthusiasm is also mine.
The mouseover is a reference to a filk song written by the late great Randall Garrett, which is sung here by the late great Isaac Asimov.
That’s a lollipop she’s saving for later.
(Also, none of you mentioned the Twilight at the bottom. This is probably just as well.)

Sorry I didn’t comment yet mr grey...
Wait.
Anyway, I really loved your picture with all of the twilights encircling the mane twilight. I didn’t even notice the Twilight down there before. 0-0 My favorite part about the whole thing is that Twilight’s staff is staring at Twilight Sparkle’s face, too.

Yes, well, I kind of half-consciously carefully avoided mentioning that one…
