Question: How many of you have heard of Them's Fightin' Herds?

I just recently joined the MLP fandom, and it didn't take long for me to catch

wind of the game. After learning more about it, I became fascinated, not only

with the world and characters, but also with it's overall history.

To summarize, the game was originally going to be fan project based on MLP

in which the characters engage in combat with each other Street Fighter style.

After some time in development however, Hasbro sent the team who were working

on the game, Mane6, a cease and desist letter prohibiting further development.

Soon after, the game was converted into an original project, complete

with it's own universe and characters. After hearing about the project, Lauren Faust,

the creator of MLP: Friendship is Magic herself provided some insight on the character

designs and in addition to that, Tara Strong who voiced Twilight Sparkle in MLP, also came

on to voice Arizona the cow (Seen in this drawing). I'd also like to mention that Craig McCraken,

the creator of Powerpuff Girls and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends suggested the name.

It's quite an interesting little story and it got me interested in purchasing and playing the game.

I decided to pay tribute by drawing this. Now you might be wondering where Tianhuo is. To put

it short, I ran out of room for her so it's only these five. I wanted to draw the main characters

standing together, not as competitors but as allies of sorts.

Also yes, it's yet another scene in the rain I know. I just like the dramatic effect that rain gives off.
