Stealing Terrible Transit’s schtick tonight and adding a spur of the moment vignette:

—

The filly shrunk behind Professor Sparkle’s oaken desk. peeking out just enough for her eyes to flit from the masked stallion to her teacher and back again.

“Care to repeat that?” the Professor demanded forcefully enough that her student cringed.

The stallion paused, eying the purple mare up and down.

“Well?” The bunned pony peered expectantly over her glasses.

“I said out of the way, old mare!”

“No.”

“Then your life is forfeit!”

The assailant had barely taken a single step when an all consuming flash of white filled the room. When the light cleared away, the stallion lay motionless on the ground.

This is my second submission for the Artist Training Grounds’ week 30 theme: draw a pony in the future. So here’s another imagining of where Twilight might be a few decades from now. My initial idea started with her psychiatrist gag bun and glasses and was supposed to go to something resembling a wizard mantle. But then I realized everyone draws her as a wizard. So I went with something a little more academic. And, of course, this humble professor is still the most powerful unicorn in Equestria, so she’s rather unimpressed that somepony is underestimating her.

Anyway, done in 4 hours with my 2H-HB-2B trio.
