Description

A small firefight between some ponies out in the wasteland.
 
Arguably continuation of this image. A few days ago it was ShiftTGC’s birthday. I promised him I’d make some art and so this is the result. I managed to convince him that I completely forgot to do it and sent him a 5 minute meme drawing. He believed the lie and his other friend set this as his desktop background while he wasn’t looking. He sure was surprised when he minimized to desktop.
 
I’ve been continuing practicing with my graphics tablet with my daily sketches and at this point I think I’m fully transitioned out of mouse. Mouse served me well but it just is a plain downgrade. Don’t get me wrong you can make great stuff no matter the tool, but that doesn’t mean that some tools aren’t better than others. If you ever feel like you can’t draw or that you need better tools I encourage you to just try. Be committed and put in the time and you will succeed, no matter how you feel right now. Don’t get discouraged if it looks like you’re not making progress. Progress is slow, trust me. Please just try things you are interested in and don’t let doubt get in your way. I’ve seen too many people give up too early or not even give an attempt because “I could never do that”. There will always be people who appreciate what you make, even if you yourself may not like the quality of your work.

Hehe … Yeah, it’s an odd quirk (like, outta every single of the tens of Changeling OC’s I’ve ever seen he’s the only one who can barely hold a transformation for mins; I don’t remember the youtuber’s name, but there was a Changeling in some anims, I think he’s just a generic one, who had some kinda flaky transformation that could drop anytime and he’d be vanilla for fairly long before he realized), but there ain’t much anything interesting to him despite being made by a certain artist.
 
DA=Pony-Berserker is mostly the one drawing him, mostly in comics.

Huh, I believe I may have seen the oc before but I didn’t know of that quirk of theirs. Do like characters that have some quote on quote “odd” quirks to them. A bug to check out closer for sure! Thanks! :3

Plus, for reasons unknown to most, Shift is not the best with levitation spells. He can do it, but he tiers out quicker than most unicorns. Maybe even the average unicorn colt/filly can endure levitation longer than Shift can. But, Shift doesn’t have any problems with illusion spells. Like disguising himself to look like someone else or maybe even make something look like it is there when it is not. But, the more complex trick (with exception to pony-like shapeshifting, anything else is included), the harder it is for Shift to maintain/preform.
 
This means if needed, he can use levitation spells to lift a weapon. But the best way for him is earth-pony/pegasi-styled weaponry for a fight.

Now when I take another look you must be right: he’s using a strap to hold it, maybe with a pin to pull the trigger, and he’s positioned the gun on the left side of his left hoof for stability, and most likely personal pref.
