Week 140 Wrap Up

A simple thing, perhaps.  A strip of cloth, worn across the neck, near the face to be pulled up for warmth.  But there's a certain charm to scarves, which makes them so much more than just a utilitarian piece of clothing.  They can be any color under the rainbow, they can be long or short, tasseled, stringed, silken, wool, the list goes on!

Popular outside of winter as a fashion statement.  A little knit wool fabric strip is all it is, and yet it can catch the eye, accentuate an outfit, or by itself... define a look.  Or a dozen looks.  For some ponies, a different scarf for every ensemble, for others, one dependable scarf is best, like an old friend.

So, bundle up with a bandanna, slip into a shawl, bedeck a boa, wear a wrapping, or adorn an ascot!  Let's take a look at the unique designs and styles of some be-scarved ponies... because when it's cold outside and...

Scarves are hot.


01. Rocket Quillwing


I've never seen something so blinding, as this scarf that is a winding. - fetchbeer


02. Lord Bababa
Nothin' terribly unique or great but uh... hey I submitted something in here for once!



03. Still Waters


Is this pony bundled up to go outdoors? Or so that he can go rob stores? - fetchbeer


04. Cobralash




05. LionCrossing


That scarf seems absurdly long, but to tie ponies together it must be strong. - fetchbeer


06. ImpCJCaesar




07. AaronMk
Steinkirk.

The very picture of a pony bandito, though this one is probably after a burrito. - fetchbeer


08. Catseye-View




09. HalflingPony

Warmth is a wonderful thing to share, anything to fight the chilly air. - fetchbeer

11. Milanoss

Does a pegasus really need to worry much, for the ground they so rarely touch. - fetchbeer

13. ScuriLevenstein


Magicians always seem to get carried away, and so many scarves tend to go astray. - fetchbeer

Week 139 Wrap Up

Treasures fill this world, and for those who know where to look, they are theirs for the taking!  Ever is there talk of ancient artifacts of magnificent and deadly power being sold by simple thrift store merchants.  Or perhaps some kind of valuable comic book purchased second-hand from somepony who didn't even know it had mystical properties!  You can never know what you'll find with a little bit of hunting, some perseverance, and a lot of luck.

There is a certain joy in finding something wonderful among the discarded.  To find those items which have been cast off by others, broken, useless, unwanted, and then to reshape them.  To give them new purpose, or to give them better purpose!  To remake and reforge the trash of the past into the treasure of the future.  Does it ennoble the object, to give it a grander purpose?  Trash can be made into new treasure with hard work, creating an item which many desire.

And of course, for others, the definition of treasure does not merely rest in items of great worth. A diamond in the rough, some call them.  Those who might appear on the outside to be uninteresting, afraid, dull, or shy. Treasures which lie within the heart of some ponies, and it can take love and caring to nurture it to the surface, to see the gem of their true selves, and realize that deep down, a treasure awaits...

Such it is with the art found within this weeks wrap-up.  Found treasures, made treasures, and treasures from the heart... There is no trash here, only wonders for one and all:

01. ScuriLevenstein


Is it vermin digging in the trash? I heard of this there's been a rash! - fetchbeer


02. Catseye-View




03. HalflingPony
I regret nothing!

Some ponies deserve the treatment that they get, though some claim this behavior the can't permit! - fetchbeer


04. Philith




05. Silverwisp


There's no end to what you can do within a box, even reversing all the clocks! - fetchbeer


06. dredaich




07. Frostspear


There's always things to throw just lying around, they're just waiting to be found. - fetchbeer

Week 138 Wrap Up

Fortune is a fickle mistress.  She offers with one hoof, and she takes away with the other.  The trade winds guide many along their way, ponies seeking fortunes by wind or by wave.  The world is vast, and filled with many wonderful things, some in plain sight, and some hidden.  It takes dedication, hard work, and a bit of luck... fortunes are out there to be made...

...and fortunes are out there to be lost.  Put your bits down, sidle up to the table, and play for keeps.  Your opponents all have their tells.  A bad bluff may be your key to winning big! But one bad turn of the cards, and everything might be gone.  Fortunes shift and change, as variable as weather, and twice as fierce.

Ahhhhhh, but Fortune smiles upon those who seek it this week!   Just take a look below at what riches have been come across our path :

Week 137 Wrap Up

Alright, it's time for everypony to come out from their homes and rejoice! The unending storms have passed, the Queen has returned with full control of her powers, and the country is once again at peace. With the skies once again clear and the temperature returning to summer norms, it is time to celebrate! And what better way to do so than with art. And conveniently, art is something we have. You guys have taken quite a liking to this theme, it seems. We've got pictures of the Queen, of course, along with some airborne ponies, a few stray ice monsters, and Discord... well, being Discord. But let's not keep everypony waiting, eh? It's time to show what you've created:

Week 136 Wrap Up

Ah, a new year from the traditional calendar of our friends from the east; and with it, a new animal - so long, snake!  It's time for the Year of the Pony!

What?  You mean - ?  Huh.


Well, I've just been informed that it is not, in fact, The Year of the Pony.  Technically, it's the Year of the Horse.  To that I say - ponies, horses...  it's close enough!  We're all equines, here, so let's ring in this new year of all things four-legged and hooved!  Let fly the fireworks, and let's have a look at what all you've done for this fine week of Asian Ponies! :D



01. sixhorsepower
