Last year we actually pulled it off. Not just shitposting for once, we made Born to Silly and raised $5,527 for Anchor Ridge. All of it went to helping kids and families. Turns out even a bunch of terminally online horsefuckers can do something good when we feel like it, so we're doing it again.Born to Silly is back, and we're aiming bigger. Same idea: comfy, cute, slightly unhinged poners but this time we're raising money for Kids Rein, supporting equine therapy for kids, real horses helping real people, funded by cartoon horses. Poetic.This year's pack is gonna lean into the wholesome side a bit more; life, family, healing, but still very much /mlp/. Cute mares, fillies, whatever you’ve got, just keep it in spirit.This thread is where we organize everything:post ideas, art, concepts, help with themes, whatever. Lurk less, contribute how you feel. Let’s make something solid again, just anons doing their thing.>Websitehttps://borntosilly.com/>MascotSilly Stuffing!>CharityEquine-assisted therapy Kids Rein leading the pack.>Pricing???>NSFW?Common sense rules, keep it tame, nothing extreme.>Controversial OCs (Aryanne, Luftkrieg etc.)Common sense again, no political bullshit or symbols.>Platform for selling the art packe-junkie, most likely.>Deadline for contributionsPerhaps around Apr 17th>Donation proof because skeptics you knowhttps://borntosilly.com/archivehttps://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/42927089/#q42934889>Previous threadhttps://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/43087148
This is still going?
>>43132896Yes, and obviously with new content>>43133005BtS isn't a scam, also DarkDoomer isn't staff you retard just a contributor to the packThis thread now requires more Scoots
>>43132896It is, even if it's pretty dead and no one really joins. But there should be an anouncement this weekend for Marecon.
Could you imagine an /mlp/ without obsessed schizos?
>>43133534what are they obsessed about exactly?>>43133148i think also war and gas prices aren't factors playing in favor of charity these days.
>>43132654Finished my artwork. For those who don't know FoE, that filly is Silver Bell and she lost her family in a raider attack. She copes with that by obsessing over Pinkie Pie and ends up being cared after and adopted by Derpy. So I thought it was fitting since the pack is about helping children in need and wasteland foals need love the most. And I was also inspired by php104's awesome comic he is drawing right now. The mold is dedicated to you Moldanon.
>>43133740Based and wholesome! Thanks Anon!
The only good thing about this project is that it makes demons like Amy New seethe. Other than that I don't care for it at all.
>>43133740Uh, this is the 200% exported version, I thought it looked a bit better for a short moment, but no lol. So here's the original resolution: https://files.catbox.moe/xfrbzw.png>>43133766Thanks!
>>43133790>In b4 yeetedI'm of the opinion DD very likely wormed his way into 4chan/mlp/ staff.
>>43133780True, and this is literally who that spammer is and what he's all about, they cannot accept the truth that Born To Silly remains a thing, as it was born shortly after Silly Stuffings while despite all of their efforts, spam, and attacks BTS collected more than 5x what they have done. So yes I understand the butthurt.>>43133796I wonder who came up with this conspiracy theory but that's been disproven for a long time.
>>43133740fucking adorable.
>>43133862In the end we win.>>43133796Even if he were, and you can't know because staff are Anonymous what's the matter? He's staff in some boorus and rather enforces the rules, even against his own interests or opinions.That Anon is mad because he wanted to get pounded in the ass by DD at MareFair and now he's mad at the guy for ghosting 'im!There's no cabal, no conspiracy nothing, and I'm sure it's the same anon shitposting in the AI art thread or the MLP awards thread.
>>43134301the mad anon wants that DD horsecock.
>>43134301Damn this clarifies more why this tranny's obsessed about this guy just like he used to be with Tamers or ZZ. That's typical foid behavior>>43134650Ironic since that artist barely draws any porn even less cocks I don't think this is his taste.>>43133740We are so back even if it doesn't looks like>>43132654About this>>Deadline for contributions>Perhaps around Apr 17thThis is pretty slow as mentioned earlier there are other events going on that narrows people's focus so I believe the best would be late April.
Born To Silly mentioned on Marecon! Get in here!
>>43135220uhm based?>>43134650That explains a LOT.
Bump
This but it's Rainbowdash carrying Scootaloo in the air, with Silly stuffing feels like she's flying
>>43134685>late aprilseconding this
>>43133534There was a time.
>>43137781this.>>43134650IDK if i said it but how a conservative Frenchman visiting the states the second time in a decade saving $$$ for travel and hotel to be greeted by a guy in a dress, he even made a video about it!It's a good motivation to keep this thread alive and the project a success.
>>43136402Make fillies wholesome again
bump
>>43133740>>43133784nice
>>43133534Ive been in a similar situation a while ago with a bsky faggot doing everything he could to dox me. Contacting my friends to get info, claiming he's my biggest fan, trying to draw badly porn fanart, accusing me of ignoring him, crying on Discord VC, dumping dox, faked chatlogs, getting banned and accusing me of fucking horses IRL, being insane, being a pedo threatening to show everyone art of Applebloom) accusing me of ruining his entire life, threatening to kill himself and emailed my derpibooru tag to evereyone in my company, but hopefully no one gave a damn assumed it was a prank. But I submitted a police report for the IRL threats.They're mental, no other word, when a 30yo need ruined his own life and did that to himself is a way to cope. This is creepy but not a serious threat but if you remember “Misery”, that sums it up.That guy obsessing about Tamers and all the fandom reminded me of him.
I FUCKING LOVE CHARITY
>>43143598ah i see, still a few years ago we had autists, not that kind of psycho sjw, sonme are reasy to kill for their ideas.and well i won't make you more worried but tldr, nothing more dangerous that someone who do something persuaded being «the good guys» against «the nahtzees»
>>43143598insane story anon. thank you for sharing with the class.
>>43143861desu i wish we should not need that but if it can bring joy to people, i'm all for it.Generosity!
>>43145088
>>43133534>Could you imagine an /mlp/ without obsessed schizos?what are you talk->Restore from archiveoh
>>43146456Huffyfilly keeps talking bout it on Discord so I decided to check by myself and regarding last years, it IS legit.Reminder to always do the opposite of what an obsessed antifa diaper lover on HRT tells me to do.
>>43146637>schizo is crying on dickswordkek
>>43146637This guy keeps DMing me he's sworn he's gonna take down the whole 4chan cabal with rigging threads, Patachu stalking him at the cinemare event or whatever, he says something, and a while later it's different.He's not giving up.
>>43146637>Huffyfilly
>>43147120His new name, they identifies as anonfilly now.
>>43146248
>>43147636Tick tock
>>43147636pronouns an/on
>>43146637And he got me to join this thread. I have no idea what to contribute so have a upsie.
>>43149693
>>43150421scootaloo!
>>43132654Brump
Looks like it's not really taking off. Maybe we should bring NHM, Sumaryanon and Patachu back in the staff, also haters reminding us what we are fighting for.
>>43152725Nobody hates you, you are just beyond people's interest, most of all this board.
>>43152778This. It's not that the new anons are bad. It's just like how we remember Armstrong and Aldrin but can't name Apollo 12's crew. There's nothing much happening right now, first BtS one shot, and it was beautiful. This one has the same vibe. The only difference is that now the enemies have lost and are reduced to denialism. There's not a lot left to prove until the next time something serious happens.
Feels like there's almost no art for this year's edittion
>>43151807
>>43153454I agree.
I need to wait to the pack to be released to post my work? Anyway this is my wip and hope can participate this time around.
Rip project I guess
>>43154172nah no need to, just post itt for sharing ideas and critiques and that's cute, thanks ! and keep it up!once it's finished feel free to post it there https://borntosilly.com/ so it is uploaded in the art pack
up
>>43155010No, I still hope you guys will make it. even a little.
I'm too busy to participate this year, but bump.
>>43156608Same I can just afford to pay my bills so not the right time for generosity. Still praying for you all, god bless and thank you.
Decided to redo my "Anon sewing Silly" art that you've probably seen. I'm not good with hands yet, but I'll try. Might do 2-3 more artworks. All the best to the drawanons out there. Here's the bump.
>>43157222The religious stuff is really cringe dude.
>>43157526Reddit's thataway, bud.
>>43157543If you know where to go why are you still here?
>>43157400cute, stay based!>>43157526no I don't think it's not, you need Christ especially today.>>43157553Why are we still here. Why am I even bumping a thread when two years ago I begged Patachu and NHM to drop it and let anons take care of it and now it's completely different people perhaps no rigging or not the same advertising skills the new crew is having a hard time. Coping with the schizo was one thing, now coping with the current situation, it's harder, it takes more hope but at least the Timsplosion stans accusing everyone in the pack being pedophile have gave up.
Looked up and discussed references for Silly Stuffing. I remembered on one of the threads last year where someone mentioned this doll called Raggie. As a newfag, I have no idea who was that. I did a bit of research to this pony and realized she was the original Silly. With her oldest post, from Ponerpics, dated 11 years ago. Recently, I wanted to draw those 2 together. So I searched references again. But I've stumbled upon Raggie's family; a full species of "hagwarders". With mentions of OC like patchpleat, wetweave to name a few. It's nice, I might draw them as a family with Silly being their newest member.
>>43158085youre still here because you jerk off to foalcon and since the OP suggests care for children this isn't gonna make it you pedos gonna all get exposed soon.>>43157526Religious people often are the most perverted ones especially christian and the fact theyre ok with an art pack drawn by foalcons proves they got no ethics.
I'll have you know I've been asking a clinical psychologist to investigate this thread and it's people and most important the art done for this pack.There's a lot to discuss as the obsession with protecting children or denying a womans body's rights. Pregnant fetish was also posted.>>43137248That mascot is a living patchwork, this is some kind of golem plus theres ironic satanic symbolism in foals praising and playing with a sentient monster that represents the members of this NGO
>>43158380So you confirm an initial thought that the thread where one single anon roleplayed as many pretending to create it was just a reuse of a much older project.>>43157400This is not normal.>>43155785I hope not and soon we'll expose the truth behind this <<project>>
>>43158414>one single anon roleplayed as many pretending to create itUh no. There are many other anons here. >past project Like I said, I was a newfag and wanted to explore more about their interesting original species. While I was finding references. Prior to Silly, I had no idea of the existence of Raggie. I don't even know that there was a project a decade ago. >Not normalIt's similar to finding an injured pony, and bandaging her or taking care of her wounds
>>43158424Do you take pleasure imagining the character in pain? Can you elaborate? I'm trying to understand.>>43146937Stalking someone isn't normal behavior, I also followed what happened. More info will surface soon about this, people start talking what really happened that night.>>43146637Have you considered they may be the victim here?
>>43158438>Do you take pleasure imagining the character in pain? Not at all. But I can understand why you might think that. By drawing a character hurt, you would assume I have a hurt fetish of some kind. But that wasn't the point of my art. The art was supposed to have a healing message. That, when there is hurt or pain in this world, there would also be comfort and help from others. I apologise if my message wasn't clear enough. Here is a text above, that hopefully removes any doubts and makes the intent clearer. I am open to any feedback you would have, though.
>>43158470Okay this is cute!
>>43158438"Theys" cannot be victims, it's an inanimate pronoun.
Don't give a shit about the drama just wanna make and see cute foals being happy and help with the cause. Anyway here's my collab
its all ran by the foalcons are shilled in every thred as the cabbal janitors prune the truth threads timestamps bleed golden ratio subversion they protect them because exposing him collapses the whole charity laundering the kids rein front and the brony leaks to harvest in there born to silly. lmao more like born tol rig and cheat. when the goyim finally read the metadata and burn the operation. now hyenari is gone darkdoomer laughs from rotating his kike mossad nodes staff complicit the pack is pure satanic or weird masonic ritual now we klnow salon13 was a cover up for the real thing they beenm hidign or get stuffed next the diffs dont lie the foalcon timestamps screamws fake
>>43159531Someone's mad
>>43159535mad riggt now but haoppoy cause all's gonna burn pretty soon bigger than ever and they are in panic right now trying tl shut it down but lmao all the names and dates were released to the press.
>>43159373that's adorable <3 thank you anon !
How did he solve the Captcha?
>>43160436He got 10 bucks
>>43160825cucks on pedoproxy still have to solve the captcha
>>43159373Scoots! Cute!>>43159531Take your meds anon.
>>43159531>>43159558>the deleted posts tooAnon, I really think he lost it.
>>43158380I am that guy, >>41680979and the one you're talking about was patachu. >>41680411To shutdown schizo, Silly is not a remake of Raggie it was made entirely by different people. It just happens that there's not a lot of wiggle room for the concept of stuffed animal pony that people end up at the same ideas. >Kids hold their stuffed animals for security>Living plushy >Stuffed animal is a protector
>>43162868stop calling me schizo we all see the same synbols
>>43162868That was the core idea and I think it's great, Silly Stuff is pure sovl. anyways wip
Trying to make another draw
>>43163549Good stuff anon!
>>43163549god i love cmcs so much.>>43163528who is flying away with my silly!?
>>43164134>who is flying away with my silly!?Well, we know for sure it isn't Scootaloo, haha right?
>>43164162
>>43164162Could be a possibility of Scootaloo
>>43163528>>43163549have a bump
>>43163549very cute drawing anon
>>43165565
>>43158392Must be an offboarder or something but I cant let that pass. caring for children isn't pedophilia, it's building a base for a normal society.Jesus is King.
>>43167245>caring for children isn't pedophiliaNormalfags literally think like this, it's fucking disgusting. Total Normalfag Death
>>43167486that's been their argument for a while, just like accusing every artist drawwing fillies being a pedo.I mean even SFW artists have been targeted by the anti foalcon crew!
For some reason I want this thread to stay up just to piss off that tranny
>>43169426That tranny being you of course.
>>43168475
>>43170260I agree.
>>43167245>Jesus>Proceeds to jerk off to horse children instead of getting married and starting a family???
>>43172782Anon what makes you think we all jerk to foalcon here? I'm 38, and love both my wife and my daughter.
>>43172744
>>43172802Why would a follower of Christ defend furry artists who draw nsfw horse children
>>43172821>horse children El oh el
>>43172821You’re mixing up two completely different things. In Christianity, and for being one myself what matters first is what you do and how you treat others, especially the vulnerable. Supporting a charity that helps real children is objectively good; and every artist in this pack is blessed.>“Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.” Matthew 25:40>“Religion that God our Father accepts as pure is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress.”James 1:27So if someone contributes to helping children in real life, that aligns with core Christian teaching, regardless of who they are. What silly things they have drawn or posted on the internet. God does not give a damn about these, you do.Now, about sin: Christianity does not say “thoughts don’t matter,” but it also clearly distinguishes between inner struggle and outward action.>“If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves.” John 1:8>“Judge not, that you be not judged.” Matthew 7:1We, Christians are explicitly warned against acting self-righteous or condemning others while ignoring their own faults. Also, nowhere in the Bible is there a concept about “drawn or fictional material” being equivalent to real-world harm; and don't get me on the iconography or representing gods. The moral focus is consistently on real actions, intent, and their consequences.Oh and most importantly:>“Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone.” John 8:7If you’re trying to gatekeep who is “allowed” to do good based on personal dislike, that’s not a Christian position that’s just moral grandstanding. Christ Himself was a destroyer of the moral.Your reasoning in that one sentence is proper to a cult that will ignore someone who saved a life, but will have to be beheaded for being gay. It's called Islam.
I don't remember when this thread was about drawing cute foals anymore
>>43163549Done
>>43172919cute!
>>43172919Nah really this is why I love this pack, it's all about cute! have a Scoots; gotta find more ideas for the complete things, maybe more shading, background or something design-ish, you decide!
>>43173320Okay now I need to make something with Sweetie Belle to complete the set, any ideas? Can't remember too much of her motivations or storylines other than she wanting to sing and maybe being a fashionista like her older sister. Think gonna do the first
>>43173416I'm not even sure if she really knows what she wants to be but whatever, your idea will be the best!*not my art, for decorative purposes only.
>>43174042I'm trying to make her singing miraculously did this in less of a day so gonna be done by the end of the line and gonna be able to provide three draws to make up for not submitting anything last year. Too bad it feels like there's a lot less of art in this edition
>>43172919>>43173320>>43174100Awesome!
>>43174100Sovl!>>43174675Thank you I'm a bit slow. I will upload the original version 3200x4000 w/o text directly to the site for the pack
>>43172919>>43173320Nice!>>43174100You can't sieg heil in public like that Swibble!>>43174909Incredible artwork, anon! You drew the Anon holding up Scootaloo one last year?
>>43175189Thanks anon! No not me that's another artist; but I have been very inspired by this Anon going with the raw brush strokes, it's a good study to take freedoms from a topic and go nuts, lot of things to arrange now I look back, i might eventually finish another older painting/study with silly, but that's for later.It was feeling flat so I went with an emboss filter to harmonize the shapes of the strokes, and a sharpen filter.
Let's get sillier
>>43175527
>>43174100>>43174909>>43175530Pretty fucking based lads!
>>43175521>>43174100>>43172838>>43157543That's a lot of nazi salutes, Born To Silly confirmed far right whistleblowing!>>43174909>(You)
>>43176193Fuck off
>>43175530Remember Anons this artist rigged his position in order to take the leadership back and BornToSilly also check the end of the year awards thread archives by the same discord cabal
>>43176815What?
>>43176838Rigging exposed for fake donations on a literal ponzi scheme as planned, samefagging in the end of yearts awards with his pals boosting borntosilly and jannies part of cabal doing a memoryhole attempt with foalcon artists whitewashing corrupted charties under investigatinos and he gets mad when exposed.
>>43176838Writings on the walls. Foalcon samefags shills exposed rigging for borntosillys corrupt cabal but tries to memoryhole what they did paid jannies covering up but archives arent what they can control. Truth coming.
wake up, sheepple!
>>43177004>>43177023What?
it’s okay, nonny. no need to be angry. there’s a silly in your attic, and this itn't a conspiracy theory
>>43177867Finally!Lovely art, thank you Anon!
>>43177867The specks of dust floating in air gives that feeling of calm and silence
Couldnt post earlier due to maintenance. Is this fixed?
I'm not done yet so BUMP
>>43177867arranged a few things i didn't like; ear color and the movement of the curtain on the floor behind, some lighting.i like to keep that negative space on the room's wall behind but if you have other ideas...
>>43180716or a more sad version if you prefer, depends of the mood etc.
>Deadline for contributionshow about we extend that to the april 20th? maybe even longer. depends really how much arts we have as of now.
>>43180877End of April would be nice, so we have all of the month of May for collecting the funds etc.
I'm doing my part just had $1 left on my prepaid debit card, thought that I'd make that dollar useful by giving it charity
>>43180877Would be helpful in my case cause of work, Rarity's mane being the hardest one of the characters I've done so far and having not doing the background at all.
>>43180716Alright, colour saturation is too high overall, and it looks like the image was converted from CMYK to RGB. Try mixing your colors more naturally.The pink ear is good now that you’ve looked at the reference but give it a more ear shape. I prefer the drape/curtain shape in >>43177867 but the sunlight passing through it in this one is now a masterclass. Careful with the huge brush and blending tools. Some finer details, like the stitches in the mane, have been flattened>>43180726This feels quite depressing. Try to find a better middle ground. Test your image on different displays, you’re currently losing either contrast or dynamic range. It’s a difficult path, but worth it. Please consider using a smaller brush than 100 pixels wide for your last stitches and details.
>>43181253I agree, that allows artists to actually venture in art, it takes time to make something that isn't a doddle or a speedpaint.
>If you build it, they will come!
>>43180881I'm ok with the end of april. Seems resonable.>>43174909Art pack cover?
>>43182596Wait it was supposed to be a sketch, there's a better version as I'm trying to imagine her left leg placement and also arranged the hip a little
>>43183272>no, Anon there's still flaws in my art I need to work on
>>43183272>sketch>literally a masterpieceok anon you don't have to mog us so hard. share the better version once you're done
