(2008) Coloured pencils. So... this might strike you (especially you who knows my normal style and kind of art) as strange. But it's based on a dream I had some weeks ago. A nightmare acctually... about ponies. Weird huh? It's probably been over 15 years since I drew a My Little Pony (© to Hasbro) last time! Anyway, this is not the finished picture, you can see part of the dream castle behind her and a crystal flower. Sooo, she could fly. I know, she hasn't got any wings, but she's actually flying, not jumping. But suddenly this black, living goo attacked her and engulfed her in seconds!! It was really scary! It came from nowhere!! If you've seen The Thing or Spiderman 2 (or was it 3?) you'll know what kind of movements it had and how scary that was in the dream! This is only a small part of the dream, but I had to draw it 'cause it burned itself into my mind. It's no specific pony, just a pinkish-purple one which I didn't remember the hair colour of so I gave her the same look as Halfnote (I think was her name) that I had as a kid.

Hope you like it.

It was Spiderman 3 12 and this looks great! a bit different than your usual work but I like that.

And thank you again, glad you like it! 11"

That black ink is cool. I feel sorry for the pony only because of her expression of fear/desperation/agony.

:-) Marika Viklund replies: "Thank you! 11
Yeah, I know. I felt sorry for her too. It was a scary dream. (I do wonder where my brain got it from though!)"

Wow, bet that was scary! I like the way you made the light reflect off the mane! Great job, I’m still learning how to do that 12

:-) Marika Viklund replies: "It was... but still fun. I love to remember dreams this well. 11 Thank you for liking it! 3"

Yeah, but she is still very cute! ^^ I do not know the series, but I still have some Ponys, cause I loved them. I like the background, cause as sketchy as it is it fits very well for a nightmare: still there, you can recognize it, but not see it clear.

:-) Marika Viklund replies: "Thank you! 2 Yeah, I loved them too! So cute and pretty.
Maybe, but I think I’ll try and finish colouring it anyway. But it might take a while! 1 I had intended to make the background in paler colours though, to make the pony stand out a bit! *nods*"

You have weird dreams... mine never make sense!

:-) Marika Viklund replies: "Yes, I know. This dream is not by far the strangest I’ve had! Mine don’t make sense either though. 2 After this part of the dream I dreamt I was in the Dream-castle and I was a male vampire and there was this cartoon snake outside... weird. 1"

It’s strange dreams like that, but they really can have a huge effect on you! I really should have a go at drawing My Little Pony as i was mad on them as a child and still appreciate their beautiful but chunky figures. I love how you’ve drawn this and i really hope she’s going to be ok!

:-) Marika Viklund replies: "Hehee... I always have weird dreams! 1 Yes they can. *nod*
I was mad about them too! I had some 30 of them! 1 It was fun to take a look at the again and draw some. 2 I hope she’ll be ok too. *nod*"
