This image has possessed prime real-estate in my imagination since I finished my last Equestria Daily Artist Training Ground image. This is what I’ve been working on what very small amount of time I’ve had. Basically what is going on is an attempt to answer, or explore a question posed in a Fallout Equestria Discord: What would Fallout Equestria be like if the Great War did not happen.

Well basically, I’m fairly certain at a base level nothing for Fallout Equestria would ever exist. But the idea dug itself in and I explored it, and taking a certain level of artistic liberty I decided that if the characters of FoE were to exist in a world where the Great War did not happen or was not as intense and world-ending a conflict as it was in the book: then what would things be like if they were all retained to live at around the same time? And in addition: if at least the main characters of the core story lived close enough to be a part of a network, and so may either know each other well, or be acquainted? And thirdly: what would they be doing?

In the end the answer came down to: they all get together on a weekend to play a heavily home-brewed table-top RPG game put on by Homage at her place as a means to bring together her disparate friend group. An added layer to this scenario that came about at one point is that in order to mitigate rents, she co-rents a building with Applesnack who also completes the scene. And of course, some original FoE elements remain and is recast into a new situation entirely.

This went on long enough and I wormed in what small jokes I could this might end up becoming a AU I revisit visually to mess about.
