    I initially planned to just ask for a single picture's source (though there's a few more I'd want), I decided to turn this into a thread asking for a picture's source. Be it PIXIV, Tumblr, or Deviant Art, ask away. I archive a lot of the fan artwork (not all due to quality standards and preferences), so I *might* be able to help most out for finding out just who drew one of your favorite pictures.

    I'm looking for the source of these two pictures:

    The NMM picture is done by tsampikos

    I can't find the original picture source though. It's not on DA and I don't have an FA. They locked that to people without an account.

    Only thing I could find about the Fluttershy pic was "kenshiro" I don't think that is the artist though.

    First fluttershy picture, the teeth make it look like she has become a vampire... some sort of "Blood is Thicker than Friendship" fanart perhaps... my trail went cold at Kenshiro too.

    Tsampiko is indeed the artist of the first one, but it's not posted on his FA account, even under scraps. I found it somewhere else and downloaded it, then listed him/her as the author. (I think the original EQD posting is the same size anyway, so meh.)

    As for the second one: that's a damn mystery. Here is the source of the image: http://ponies-282.tumblr.com/post/28648035378#notes

    No author listed, no one questioning it. I suspect it's drawn by someone from an obscure site or the mod is throwing us off with Fist of the North Star (Hokuto no Ken being the direct translation of the text). I haven't spent as much time digging through the Japanese links, but so far in English, this tumblr is the only place it shows up. Really bugs me as it's quite interesting. The style is unrecognizable for any fan art I've seen, namely the eyes and muzzle. The red shading is unusual, but not enough to really stand out as unique to an artist.

    Thanks for your help, though. :p

    I have, at last (and completely by accident) discovered the artist of the Fluttershy picture. PIXIV artist C.D.I. I'd link to him/her, but there's some very questionable pictures on there.

    Are you asking who made the gif or where the muffin king animation was originally from? Because I remember it from an episode of Dexter's Lab in which the dad goes insane with hunger for muffins.

    Artist goes by Rainbow, good luck trying to find the original artist with no link back.

    They have an OC by the name of gammadelta. That might help find the source of the art.

    There's something about this thread that is fantastic, I'm not sure why.
    You people, yes.
    Of all the threads here.
