Rat's Saucy Nest

Haha, I’m sorry! :D

I’m glad people like the picture

Just sign up there and grab a ticket when they’re available! You can be put on a mailing list for shows that aren’t taping right now, and you’ll get an email once tickets are available. Usually tickets start being available about a month before taping starts!

It was free! Tickets for on camera audience stuff pretty much always are! Not sure what seats we’re going to get. I’ll make sure to tell you guys about it once I’m home!

Sadly my wife couldn’t join me, she has work :(

No specific plans, but it’s something I want to do! But I have to focus on finishing pictures for the upcoming Babscon and some other important pony projects first!

Oh that sounds fun, probably some time in the future!

What I really like about MLP, is that there are so many different characters that are equally as amazing,so there’s something for pretty much everyone! So truly every pony can be best pony.

I’ve been asked why I like AJ best before, but it’s been a while since I answered it, so here we go! Random things that come to mind when I think about AJ:

1. Applejack is dependable and hardworking, two traits that I greatly admire. I myself am not too dependable and I’m rather lazy, so I try to be a better person. So basically she’s a bit of a rolemodel for me.
   
2. I absolutely love strong female characters. No matter what franchise.
   
3. She’s the only pony who wants to attend the Gala in Season 1 not for personal gain, but to help her family. But she’s also the first pony who offers to give up her ticket when she sees how uncomfortable it makes Twilight to chose one of her friends.
4. She’s incredibly supportive, always encouraging all of her friends. Sometimes even after the other friends have given up on them, like with Fluttershy when the group travels up the mountain to confront the dragon.
   
5. She doesn’t hesitate a second to risk her life to save Spike from the Timberwolves, even after she gets trapped, the only thing she cares about is getting Spike to safety.
   
6. Her accent is incredibly cute.
   
7. I really love her colors, orange is my favorite color.
   
8. Freckles.
   
9. She wears a hat!
   
10. She’s the only one to apologize to Twilight after she turned against her during the wedding.
    
11. She offered to go win a competition to help raise money for Ponyville, even tho nobody expected her to. And when she didn’t win the competition, she decided to took a job to make money, because she made a promise.
    
12. She would never cheat, not even when her entire livelihood was at stake.
    
13. Back during Season 1 and 2 she didn’t have as much screentime as the other mane six, making her kinda the underdog and people didn’t like her as much as the other ponies, which in turn just made me like her more.
    
14. Similarly Applejack is (even to this day) often left out of official merchandise. She’s the only mane six pony that wasn’t in this year’s McDonald’s Happy Meal toys, even tho three background characters where available too. Similar things happened in earlier years. Also a lot of the time when you see some official merchandise like a mug or a bedsheet, Applejack is missing. She really got the short end of the stick until the amazing Sweet Apple Acres toyline was released a few months ago. 5 years after the show first aired. Applejack seems to be underappreciated, which I try to balance out a bit by gushing about her a lot and drawing her a lot, I guess?
    
15. I remember back in the days, porn of Applejack was super rare. That’s one of the reasons why I started drawing her a lot, to overcompensate for people who don’t like her as much. Nowadays pictures of AJ are not that rare anymore, but I never lost my love for her, so I just keep drawing what I love, even tho it might not be “needed” as much anymore.
    
16. Apples!
    

So yeh, for some she might be worst pony or background pony, for some she’s best pony. But in the end, she’s a better person than I could ever be. And that’s why I like her so much.

Buddy, I was in love with AJ before you even knew MLP existed!

First come, first served does apply in those situations, right? Right?

Ok, so, back in 2014 I found a random link that said dolphin’s genitalia and teats are all like hidden in one single fold of skin and posted this info on my tumblr cause I thought it was weird and hilarious that the teats are literally in the same spot as the anus and the vagina, makes for awkward nursing.

Anyways, turned out that this info was wrong, and that female dolphins have the teats in two separate folds next to the the genital skin fold, and some of my followers corrected me and educated me and I got a lot of super interesting (and weird) info about dolphins, full with detailed diagrams and photographs, which I ended up posting. It was amazing. And I’m sure I mentally scarred some of the people who were just following me for horse smut. Sorry!

And so a day later I decided to put my newfound knowledge to use and drew my first and only cartoon dolphin smut!

I’m torn between being upset at that bad pun and trying not to laugh at it.

Yes, I’ll stop drawing any pony whatsoever and cancel all open projects and commissions because I’m suddenly in love with another cartoon character besides Applejack! It’s all over, guys. Closing the gates of pony smut. I’m RatofJudy from now on!

Nah, of course not, don’t worry! <3 The pony posts weren’t halted when I liked Blue from Jurassic Park either. Or random fox OC early last year. Or feral rats from not too long ago. Or that weird phase where I was into dolphins…

Just means that I’ll probably doodle her once or twice while I find some free time to do so in between all the pony pics. Speaking of which, I’ll have a new pony pic ready to post tomorrow. Stay tuned!

Oh yeh, I definitely want to redraw some of my older pictures! A full scale reimagination of some of my old pieces sounds fun. Edits not so much.

Sadly I’m quite busy with a lot of projects and commissions that are overdue and need to get done. But it would be cool to do a redraw in April, I drew my first pony picture in April 2011 (even tho I didn’t get serious about drawing until 2013). So it would be a nice anniversary thing. I’ll see what I can do!

I’d have trouble deciding which picture to redraw, though. There are so many that I like and would love to see done better!

Yeh, I noticed! It’s been a problem of mine for a long while now, it’s hard breaking out of my comfort zone, but I’m trying. It doesn’t help that there are only so many ways to show off genitals, haha, but yeah, I definitely need to push myself more. I’m working on a big comic and I’m trying lots of different angles and poses there!

I’ll try to draw more variation in the future!

I do think furry and pony are a subset of the same general idea and very much alike, even tho a lot of furries (and bronies alike) will have an aneurism when I say that, haha. But yes, people have argued in circles about this since the beginning of time.

Anyways, I also think Anon was talking about the Anthro comic! I’m not too much of a fan of Anthro myself, preferring feral/clop stuff. But I know there are a lot of people who like it, and really, only one out of seven comics is Anthro, if someone really doesn’t like it, it’s not too difficult to just not look at that one comic. I mean ignoring 80% of content that absolutely caters to someone’s taste because the other 20% doesn’t sounds like an overreaction. 

But I do understand not wanting to support something that contains things you don’t agree with. After all, voting with our wallets is something very important that everyone can (and absolutely should!) do. But the message felt a bit self-entitled. Like, it’s okay to not support something, but why send a message about it, it’s not like the maker of the pack is going to censor the pack just to pander to one person. That would be silly. Anon just wanted to be a dick.

Thanks so much for liking the pack, it means a lot <3

It was a joke, because arguably porn of anthropomorphized colorful ponies is pretty furry!

You mean get rid of everything in the pack?
