Transgender Day Of Visibility.

by storyboard supervisor Erik Fountain

A few years ago, Erik put together these updated AT storyboard guidelines for new board artists and revisionists.

not only does fluttershy smoke weed, the first time she did was at a party one of the other ponies brought her to. she was passed the bong and weakly said “oh… sorry. i don’t smoke, i’ll cough and it’ll be really embarrassing.”

other ponies are like “nah you can do it! we won’t laugh!” and then she was like “ohh… okay…” and then just took the fattest bong rip, held it for 3 seconds, exhaled. everyone is in shock. she then does a weak little not-even cough and goes “ohh… i knew it… and now you’re all staring at me :(” and runs away

dealing with the worst case scenario

your condom breaks

you feel a lump on your breast

your friends are ignoring you

you’re stranded on an island 

you got rejected by a crush

you get into a car accident

you got stung by a bee/wasp

you got fired from your job

you’re in an earthquake

your tattoo gets infected

your house is on fire

you’re lost in the woods

you get arrested abroad

you get robbed

your partner cheated on you

you’re on a ship that’s sinking

you fall into ice

you’re stuck in an elevator

you hit a deer with your car

you have food poisoning

your pet passed away

you fall off of a horse

you or your friend has alcohol poisoning

you have toxic shock syndrome

your house has a gas leak

They never close the door

It’s time for my 8th annual, month-long drawing challenge! 🎉

The challenge is to draw every new AdorkaStock pose that I submit to the Draw Everything June gallery between June 1, 2023 and June 30, 2023.

A new pose will be posted at 6AM Eastern every Monday – Friday Eastern USA Time. (No new poses Saturdays or Sundays).

HOW TO PARTICIPATE

🟣 Draw every pose submitted to the AdorkaStock Draw Everything June gallery between June 1, 2023 and June June 30, 2023 (22 drawings total, some references will include multiple models). Sign up to get the new pose emailed each day!

🟣 Your goal is to draw all the poses by July (July! Not June ❤) 15th, 2023. Yes, this means you have an extra two weeks to get everything done if you fall behind or start late! Don’t worry if you are in another timezone and need to complete ‘that day’s drawing’ on another day. Want advanced access to get a jump start on the challenge? Patrons at all levels have access to all the challenge poses on May 15th!

🟣 Post your art anywhere on socials with #DrawEverythingJune2023

🟣 There are no individual prizes this year but everyone who completes the challenge will get a special download AdorkaStock pose reference pack. When you’ve completed all the drawings you can qualify by submitting a screenshot of all of your works, or a link to where you’ve posted them on the prize redemption form. The redemption form link will be here once DEJ starts!

🟣 You DO NOT have to do refined artwork with every pose – rough and gestural sketches are okay! But it does have to be the full pose (yes, even multiple models) to qualify. Props are optional but animals must be included. 

IMPORTANT: The majority of the pose should be visible for it to count for the challenge. If you draw the head and shoulders and cover the rest of the body with a huge dress, it’s not going to count as drawing the pose. You can use anthro characters and other slight anatomical or prop changes; you can change the genders of the characters or the species of any animal.

My adaptation of the God of Arepo short story, which was originally up at ShortBox Comics Fair for charity. You can get a copy of the DRM-free ebook here for free - and I'd encourage you to donate to Mighty Writers or The Ministry of Stories in exchange.

Again it's an honour to be drawing one of my favourite short stories ever. Thank you so much for the original authors for creating this story; and for everyone who bought a copy and donated to the above non-profits.

hhhough barbie movie thoughts…

i don’t think the “im going to see my gynecologist” line isn’t only just for us to know that barbie is fully human. the scene of her in the real world for a second (at least to me) seemed to imply barbie was getting some sort of dream job and found her purpose. but no. she’s just going to see a gynecologist. but the way she is so EXCITED… the way she’s taking the joy in this mundane thing that lots of women go through… the barbie movie is about enjoying just being ALIVE
