2.) You are nit picking like crazy.


It's just that I believe changing those little things would work out best than making the episode significantly different, which would be kinda saying "this idea sucks, gimme something else".

As in, I think less people would find it just "okay" instead of "great" if all that already *was* in the episode was perfectly polished.


In the end, nitpicking is something I simply can't avoid. I've been doing it since I was 10. I find that recently I've been finding more and more imperfections (and more corrections, which is the good part), but thankfully I am more tolerant of them than I was two years ago.

And thinking about perfecting or streamlining stuff is very important as I may work with GUI design someday... I figured I'm not nearly math-addicted nerdy enough to eventually come up easily with crazy-efficient algorithms as, say, a Google engineer would. There are plenty of excellent coders out there. But very few with any sense of what a good interface should look like.

I am a blatant perfectionist. Everyone who's worked with me knows that.

But it is a damn cartoon. Elements of it are less than realistic because of the nature of the show.

Yes, certainly. You don't see me complaining about the hydro power plant in Mare Do Well. The things I picked on were... different. There are things you should keep closer to reality, especially if that's already "real" in canon. The problems I mentioned were mostly related to being over-the-top, something that wasn't so much present in the past unless the moment called for it.

I can recognize little strokes of genius too. When Twilight comments on the fate of her test as Mane 6 + Shining & Cadence walk out of the Crystal Empire, Shining not only mentions "It's only a test" (which by itself would be just predictable), but as he says "Celestia will probably give you a different test" Cadence notices how out-of-touch he is with Twilight's view of Celestia and holds him back.

That's like something really small but made a ton of sense given the known characterizations of all three. Having Cadence understand Twi better than Shining Armor despite the shared childhood is a good idea for several reasons.

Wait a second... Nothing college-related to worry me for the next two weeks... Plenty of time to learn how to better draw vectors...

LET THE CONSTRUCTION OF COPPERBLUE BEGIN!

Edit: I've also thought about making an airship, since airships are canon and are more useful than ships (you know, the "can go anywhere thing"

OTOH, I'd have to draw one from scratch instead of using a standard 17th century sloop as a model to vectorize then modify appropriately. I can't freedraw to save my life, and sis isn't as good at non-character drawings, but only because she never draws things like ships and cars and buildings.

Won't be long before "YOU WILL BE GAK'D"

They've got to rush to use this meme as much as possible before it dies...tomorrow.

ANYWAY,

Deviantart needs more Cadence.
