This is my submission for the Artist Training Grounds’ week 20 bonus theme: paper ponies.

So when this was announced, I was unprepared. My printer ink is low and I only have the low grade computer paper, so printing one of those pro papercrafts was probably out. And I didn’t have any construction paper. Naturally I decided I wouldn’t go to the store tomorrow to pick up supplies, but scrounge what I had around my room. MacGuyver mode go!

What I came up with:
-A handful of flimsy green, blue and red note paper
-A stack of recipe cards
-A roll of clear plastic tape
-My yogurt container full of a mish mash of different pencil crayon brands

So over around 100 minutes I drew up, cut out, coloured and taped together a flimsy Twilight Sparkle. I’ll be honest, it wasn’t even among the best designs I’ve come up with, but amazingly, she stands. And she looks all right from the one side. That counts for something, right? XD
