Whoops, yeah of course. Sorry for implying otherwise.
 
The artist is still active on FurAffinity (art published in the last few days).

Give her the helmet from that Fiendship is Magic comic and she’ll basically be a Kamen Rider

@Professor Genki & @Damaged  
It’s always polite to ask, first, though.
 
And, she’s a changeling, so she can be any color your heart desires.
 
Or any color she WANTS your heart to desire.

@Professor Genki  
You could take a crack at it. The artist isn’t flagged with a DNP.

Holy crap! Amazeballs! :O

pretty cool, needs color though.

@warbird  
cause even older art can still be awesome

@warbird  
They are hand-picked by staff.
 
Ninjad…

@warbird  
Everyone on staff gets to nominate one image. Then from that gallery we vote on up to 5 images (never on our won nomination). The winner wins.

How does the featured image work? This is 6 years old, why is it featured now?

All hail the superior Queen of Blades.

XD

And this was made well before we knew Chryssi would transform into Ultimate Chrysalis in the final episode.

If she’s planning on taking my soul with that scythe, then she can have it!

This style would make for an awesome colouring book.
 
Beautiful work. 💕

Scythe wielders immediately get favs. I love scythes.

@Derpy Whooves  
Okay, I like it, but readed the description too.

@platinumdrop  
This is not a “sketch”. This is “lineart”. Sometimes referred to as “Inked” depending on the process and the company you’re in. It is remarkable and beautiful and enjoyable as it is.

I do not want to question the rights of the image, but it is unfinished. The artist call it sketch. There are finished works too from this artist that are even better because… they are finished.

Congratulations!
 
Cute buggo.

Oh damn, that is one superb Chryssie!

Lineart is my fetish.
 

Nice

@ExistenceNull  
Good points.

@Chrysalislover  
Hard to tell without knowing the thought process that led to it’s design, but I would like to say yes, as the style lends itself to an alien, awe-inspiring appearance, which this does in spades.  
The scythe still bothers me, but a threshing scythe does bring a more…fearful response from others, as an actual war scythe does look a tad bit ridiculous.
