OMG, it's an advice animal meme in 2020. Retro is cool but this is retro!

I like the cute, chubby Ponker here. This seems like a good encapsulation of the fic, too. Overall a bit simple in composition but gets the job done.

You got me good! Memes are the prime staple of internet life. I feel like posting this around just to take people back to the retro days of the internet, plus the message in the fic and the message in the pic match. It may be silly, but who knows? Somebody might follow Sandbar's hoof-steps and go ask out that person that they are terrified to ask in the first place..

Kinda hard to judge and weigh against the other entry though. Geez... both rounds are hard to weigh-in on the slate.

I have no room to add ideas for improvement either since this accomplishes what it is set out to do

Thanks for submitting!

Thank you >>PinoyPony for your comment! This was tons of fun to make. It’s my first actual vector of a pony, and I’m happy with how it turned out. For the record, I didn’t trace anything, though you can bet your bottom dollar that my eyes were glued to my reference pics from the show and MLP Movie. I also eventually gave up on trying to eyeball colors (a dubious prospect given my partial colorblindness) and just eyedropper-selected them off the refs. If this is grounds for summary dismissal, let me know. But it was neat looking closely at my references and trying to decompose them into vectorable shapes—perhaps a basic exercise for some, but satisfying for a hardcore n00b like me.

I’ll have to put the original image without text up on my DeviantArt. Can Advice Pinkie become a new meme for a new decade? Probably not, but at least she’s having a good time!
