Description
I don't think I made something worthy of tears before. So here's Scootaloo memorializing her parents. Head-canon says both of them died in an accident when she was 4. She barely remembers them.This is my first true background. I also try to get everything in show-style. Does it look good? I need critique.
Yes, the clouds are wrong. But I derped something in Inkscape and it came out like that, and I was all ME GUSTA.
EDIT: Added stupid shadows and upped the saturation.
EDIT 2: Fixed stupid shadows and resized it for wallpaper use. Don't worry about the resolution, it fits a standard widescreen.
Guys, this isn't a real screenshot. Just wanted to make this clear. Thanks for faves and views.

Man... poor Scootaloo
Redstar: Hey Scootaloo? I've been thinkin' about this alot and I was wondering. Would you like me to be your Stepfather? I know that I cant replace your real parents, but I'd make a great Stepfather

what strange about that is the two people on that headstone died in different years so dose that mean that the placed the new casket on top of the older one

I think when one died, they didn't put the stone directly on top of the grave, but offset. So when the spouse dies, he/she can be placed next to the casket, and the stone is right in the middle of the two.

ahh, makes seance, though in the case of scoot's parents they might be buried in a two person(pony)casket.

Overall this is wonderful, but some of the coloring and lack of certain shadows bugs me slightly.

The colors are like that to add to the depressing feeling. I could bring more color back if that's better. And I'm working on shadows too. I didn't put them due to the sky being overcast, but now I see your point.

I think it's safe to say that Scootaloo being an orphan is official fan-canon now. Sinse they don't have any actual show material to count as such most seem to have come to this conclusion.
P.S. They need to make at least 1 Scootaloo episode.

Really? The rough sketch had her too big, I was told.
That's why I didn't post it. That and her wings are missing.

The background it's great! I love the show-style that you use, and the vector of Scootalo it's amazig.

Thanks! I strive to make as close to show-style as possible, and I'm glad that people like it!
