Battle Symphony: A Decade of Linkin Pony (Animated Music Video)
10 years ago I created Linkin Pony. I don’t think 14-year-old me would believe how far Linkin Pony would go. Back then, it was a combination of my 2 favorite things. Now, it’s a part of who I am. Linkin Pony is not meant to be a joke concept, it’s a genuine way to show my gratitude towards Linkin Park.
I want to thank everyone who’s supported me over the past decade; The few friends I’ve made along the way, and those who came and moved on. It means so much to me.
That all being said, I wanted to make something special for the 10th Linkin Pony Day. I present, Battle Symphony! I put my all into this video. Believe me when I say most of my time creating this year was on this video.
“Why isn’t it the full song?“ You may be asking. Well, it never was meant to be. It first started out as a 55 second clip that was meant to push my skills. It grew bigger to form a full story as I extended it several times, working backwards. While I could have done the whole song, it wouldn’t have added anything to the story, and wouldn’t be done by the 10th.
I’m really proud of this, and I want people to see it. Since the algorithm HATES me, I could really use all of your help sharing this!
5 years ago, I promised that I’d do my best to keep Chester alive in HyperBlitz. I hope I have done that, and I hope to continue to do that. My art might not make that many rounds anymore, but these characters still have a special place in my heart, as Linkin Park has a special place in my life. We love you Chester, and always will.
