She just realize that Dash doesn’t like pies, and is holding back the anger.

@Background Pony Number 17  
It was kind of the intent though to make it look like she’s a bit uneasy or tired while still trying to keep a smile.

I don’t mean to be a downer, but she looks like she’s having an asthma attack. That’s some very labored breathing.

She looks perfect. It’s not that weird, plastic-y SFM style that we’re so used to seeing. The matte finish to her and the shading used really pull it all together and make it look show-accurate while still adding that extra dimension.

What pony do you choose? I choose PINKIE PIE!!!!!

My heart can only take so much..

Reminds me…  

Glad to see this featured.

Cuuute

We need some 3d Ponk to share here.

Cool.

So cute! I want her in my life!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH <3  
(Her mane seems like it could be a little bigger/poofier, but still)  
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH <3

“How do you manage to inhale 16 tons of sugar each day and not get cavities?”  
“Pinkie dents.”

@Stellarator  
I dunno… doesn’t really sound precise enough, especially for collision.
 
 
@mjangelvortex  
Yup, that’s me. And this is where I ended up… :V

@DJTHED  
Well, it’s good enough that I couldn’t tell which it was :)
 
Have you tried the approach where you make a super simple soft body (like only 4 or 5 vertices) and use the motions on that to drive an armature? That can be surprisingly powerful.

@DJTHED  
I think I know you. Are you the same guy who did the revamped animated Pokemon models for Smogon? Nice. I didn’t know you liked ponies too. I love your animations.

@Stellarator  
I wish I could simulate the hair and get desired results, but I can’t. So yeah everything here is manual animation. Thanks!

Very good weight and bounce. She looks like she is straining to keep that huge smile, but that is what I think you are going for. Also, your physics (manual or simmed) on the little bits of tail and mane are impeccable.

Oooh, I like how the eyelashes move.

@LightningBolt  
Will do, sorry.

@Meanlucario  
Cease.

@Meanlucario  
We’ve talked about this a total of once, I don’t know who you’ve been talking to.

@Background Pony #8CCC  
For once. Still, you get the idea?

@Meanlucario  
I wasn’t the one that started this though…
