Queen of Swords by StarsongDusk on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Part 35/78, completed at the request of a dear friend!

After I was asked to return to the Tarot Ponies series with the Queen of Swords card, I immediately thought of Starlight Glimmer. The cart itself, in upright position at least, represents independent and unbiased judgement, clear boundaries, and direct communication. This very much reminds me of post reformation Starlight Glimmer, after she's had a chance to address her demons.

The Swords arcana is interpreted as elemental air, so while I might have chosen a pegasus in her place, I instead opted for an airy background and scene.

Hope ya'll like her, I miss drawing Starlight, she's such a fun character to work with! I plan on digitizing this piece tonight on stream on Twitch! Lots of fun pony stuff and general shenanigans to be had, we usually start at 8PM PST!

Thanks for checking out my art, I appreciate it.
