So, this one time at flight camp...

Description

A real push outside my comfort zone, as I'm not very good at drawing humans anymore.

Though I do like Twilight and Rainbow Dash best, I have a fondness for the whole doomed relationship vibe Gilda and Dash sometimes gives off. Rainbow's body was based off of track racers, and Gilda's was based off of female shotput and javelin throwers. More upper body strength.

I'm imagining Dash was in the middle of going on and on about how great she is, and Gilda decided to shut her up with a surprise kiss.

If you feel the need to comment on how 'mannish' Gilda looks, or how Rainbow Dash isn't a lesbian, just don't even bother. People come in all shapes, sizes and orientations.

Yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes all my yes.

I swear, time for real words.

I have always imagined Gilda as a really butch sort of woman, all strong and power and confident and bold and sexy. This hits every single damn one of my feels about her. The muscular arms, the hooked nose, the athletic wraps, the short cropped hairstyle, the earring. Your version is startlingly similar to mine, not even gonna lie. ( [link] )

Your Rainbow Dash is perfect, too. She's off from my personal headcanon, but I can't expect everyone to have the same I do. For your own personal canon, this is pretty spectacular. The short hair at the front with the long ponytail at the back is so characteristic of her, and the lack of a real "womanly" figure in favor of an athletic build is absolutely spot-on. I love the little rainbow athletic band around her wrist!

I can't give you enough words to express how much I love this. There aren't enough words in all the dictionary.

I have faved this so hard that the fave button is going to need therapy.
