Carni's Corner

ok, so now that this filly is the “new” Helium, Will and i started brainstorming about what to do with “old” Helium. after some back and forth about names i concluded that i wanted to redesign her and give some more thought to personality and name and everything.

so now we have this new little magical lovechild between velvet and surprise, book-smart little thing that often ends up embarrassed because of her moms.

meet kersey.

poniest asked carniscorner:

So, Satin is a Cteno-Velvet hybrid. What would a Cteno-Surprise hybrid be like?

messy.

no, but in all seriousness, she’d probably be a sympathetic bubbly little airhead. in fact, i went as far as making her slightly translucent. tail and ears are shaped like this for help during flight. she doesn’t have normal pegasus wings but some sort of self-grown butterfly wing thingies.

i know we said Velvet’s and Surprise’s lovechild would be named Helium, but i think it fits better for this filly. gonna need input from Will on this.

dr. adorable probably helped creating her. only she would be so evil as to unleash something so cute and dangerous on the world.

oh, and she would totally be messy.

so, second day.

we went in there, set up our stuff, and i went around to buy something before the gates opened.

on that note, sb is much too humble. dude only wanted $5 for his prints. i said “the hell you are, here’s 15!”. and i gave it to him. that applejack print was well worth it.

atryl was fun too, because apparently he had just got up when i stormed over to his table and was like “gimme that and that and that and that!”. he had some great prints but was like “why are you buying my stuff?” (verbatim). made me chuckle.

after that i went over to lil miss jay and had a nice lil chat about the future of lil miss rarity. i told him that i thought it was the most confusing storyline ever. he cleared up some things for me and gave me a few spoilers. i’ll be looking forward to it. also, he bought a rarity print. first minute, first sale, as applejack would say.

after that it was time to sit down and wait for customers.

at around 11 the now infamous fire broke out, and we had to leave the con. (at that point i took the photo of will and surprise outside). people were applauding the firetrucks, and i thought that now was a good time to go to the bathroom and get something to eat. (funny how your brain works sometimes)

when we got back in, kar red roses told me that because of the fire they’d decided to keep artist alley open an additional hour.

submissions for ask velvet’s fan event that i didn’t end up using.
