I really love how you acknowledge the racism without sweeping it under the rug. Thank you for admitting an issue with something you love, instead of dismissing it. It shows a maturity in you, that I can't often find with vintage fans and artists.

[@SavannahAlexandraArt]

Thanks! I think it’s important to acknowledge the pros AND cons of vintage stuff. Ignoring it and acting like it never happened does a disservice to everyone.

[@robertjohnson2976]

@@SavannahAlexandraArt How did you manage to make the title Fantasia style?

[@racheltheclumsy]

There’s a tshirt that’s super popular in the vintage fashion community that says “vintage style, not vintage values” and I feel like that applies to you too! Awesome art!

[@DemSweetCheekz]

Omfg applejack would have been perfect for the one centaur girl with the braids I swear I’m your biggest fan you’re amazing

[@nittygritty7034]

Cuuuute

[@CraftyMotato]

Fun fact about Sunflower: Fantasia came out in 1940. There would not be another named Black character appearing in a Disney full length aminated feature for over 50 years- the muses of 1997's Hercules.

[@dollydachshundart]

These are beautiful! They almost give me tinker bell vibes. You’ve captured vintage Disney very well

[@Kittenmax15]

I really appreciate that you talked about the problematic nature of that scene in a very kind and respectful manner and the fact that you mentioned it at all is amazing and I appreciate that in a world where history is being cencered and forgotten you let it still exist ( I could not figure out how to say this so this is the best I could do)😂

[@Vilexxica]

This is so cute! I would've loved to have seen a loving iteration of Sunflower though, one remade with the dignity she deserves.

[@heyfreakazoid8175]

This art is so pretty!! I never watch Fanatasia myself but the centaurs always looked so pretty!! And wow, the quiet “preview” and “shockwave sound” keeps catching me off guard

[@jasminewillis5495]

The way you can replicate artsyles is just incredible! I've been binging your videos and have been loving your art. I love watching videos like this because it really inspires me to get out of my art block

[@bagandbroad]

I grew up with the original My Little Pony, and I loved that part of Fantasia so much, this made me so happy. I’m also glad you talked about Sunflower.

[@angelnegrete1604]

im OBSESSED w/this vintagify series! You're so talented! I would LOVE to see your take on Bratz dolls and see you vintagify them!

[@oliviaerror4203]

I would have loved to see rarity with pearls or diamonds for her top and in her hair, I think it would fit her character better. But they turned out so pretty and magical looking

[@imjustdandy9799]

The centaur short was formative to me because it’s one of the first steps in my bi journey lol but also I’m black, so you can imagine my conflict. So thanks for talking about it! Your illustration is beautiful!!

[@emilyporter1186]

Honestly this whole vignette should've been a big glaring sign to me as a bi person too but it took me 19 years to figure it out 😭 that and literally praying in kindergarten to be turned into a boy so I could marry my best friend Emma lmao

[@nikadinah]

I don’t know if anyone else had this experience but I thought I kept hearing a man in my house. It was about halfway through the video I realized it’s in the background of the music playing. It freaked me out.

[@amandaleesartstudio]

So pretty! This was my favorite segment when I was young, but I also had the sensored version. Was a real eye opener to find that out...

[@jennaviva19]

Saw this in my subs and clicked on it so fast I knocked my phone from my hands- this was fantastic! I was obsessed with both these animations you melded these styles beautifully! I would love to see more of this mash up. Love the Rarity sparkles. I think you nailed it

Aww yay!!!!

[@benjaminacuna8013]

I absolutely love how you rendered these gals as the centaurettes of pastoral symphony

[@krisscoss8907]

I love how you choose the style to replicate in your vintage-ify videos. I really enjoy My Little Pony (friendship is magic specifically) and really like the merging of Fantasia with MLP. It’d be cool to see the rest of the Mane 6 in a different style. I also really liked your Monster High as vintage barbie videos because MH is also from Mattel.

[@Shaabun]

The addition of Barrie music in the background really puts me in the nostalgia zone

[@WinterRabbit1]

There’s a phrase that is used in the historical fashion community that I think you would like. Vintage Style, Not Vintage Values. It’s a quick acknowledgment of the abysmal values of the times while still making your point. I really like your designs here, how you modified elements of the original Fantasy art to fit each of the characters.

[@lachauntiswashington231]

This is so beautiful. They look amazing in this style. I would love the MLP did a centaur sequel. The fantasia centaurs are one of my favorites in the movie. I didn't know about Sunflower till I got older, the only black centaurs were the zebra girls.

[@oliviaerror4203]

It was so pretty and satisfying at the end when you changed the line color. 💖💖 I also love how you used your initial sketch in a different color other than black, I do this too sometimes when drawing and I think it helps me be more creative and lose with it

[@jellybee3202]

I really loved the black characters in the movie. I wish they kept the idea but instead of it being a racist stereotype with ugly black characters {I’m calling it a stereotype that people make black characters ugly not actual black people/characters} it’s just a bunch of girls helping each other get ready. That would be so cute and the only thing they would change is a small design change for two characters and getting rid of the carpet scene.

[@fiend-ish1090]

can i just say, your lineart is so beautiful. i love watching your videos and seeing the lineart stage bc its so satisfying and pretty

[@mandarazlim1677]

This is everything I never knew I wanted

[@Zyssah]

I like it they are very cute and I really like the concept! I think the only thing that I would consider changing is maybe make their accessories more in line with what the MLP characters might wear. But that’s more of wish than an actual issue. Your an amazing artist and I really enjoyed this idea.

[@Hromovlad1]

Absolutely gorgeous art As far as Sunflower goes, I'd say, keep her in. Don't erase the past. Show old works the way they were originally intended. Not to shame people, but rather to show them how much they've grown as a society since then.

[@WeatherInOrlando]

As long as it was never shown to children :/ Sunflower is a hugely damaging stereotype and I would never want that shown to kids, especially black girls, because even if they see it with the message that it was/is wrong, it's far too hurtful.

[@Hromovlad1]

@@WeatherInOrlando The thing is, so many more properly developed black characters have appeared over the decades that a character like this just gets lost in the crowd, ultimately losing any harmful potential they might have had in the past. I watched many of these cartoons uncensored as a child, and it never made me think any less of people of other races.

[@montanarose4622]

@@Hromovlad1 that is entirely untrue and dismissive. Racism doesn’t stop being racism just because we do better now. Stop expecting young black girls to shoulder the burden of racism just so you can pat yourself on the back and say, “Well, I don’t think like that, so it’s fine!”

[@Hromovlad1]

[@shinypaintf588]

will you vintagify the rest of the mane 6? u could do the first generation (though it's been done before lots of times so u might not wanna) or u could do the last unicorn too (especially for twilight sparkle, she'd be perfect!) if u do just her u could make applejack and rainbow dash together which wld be cute because they're married besides those two i can't imagine any other vintage horses- but you could try vintagifying (?) equestria girls too, easier since they're human

I also loved Fantasia! I had it on VHS as a kid and also love love loved the centaur section, I had no idea but it’s not surprising unfortunately with what I’ve learned about Disney over time. Years later after my mom had gotten rid of all our VHS tapes I found a copy of the Fantasia VHS I had and do still watch it now and again! I love this, thank you!

[@emilyporter1186]

Thank you for acknowledging the racism and for making a conscious effort to create racially diverse characters after realizing the lack of representation historically. I also grew up with the fantasia vhs and would rewatch the part with the centaurs and the pegasus family over and over again. It was everything i wanted in terms of beauty: using flowers and lilypads to dress up qnd having little winged babies root for me lol. Definitely have more complicated feelings about it now but it still holds a soft spot in my heart. I also really appreciate that you include all the erasing you do. Im not a professional artist but ive drawn since i was a kid and always felt a sorta imposter syndrome thing when i see other artists speed draw and they hardly erase anything

[@gabyeguizabal7164]

I like the piece i think it’s especially cool how I can see both the Mlp style and Fantasia style in the background. However I have some comments on the video I think you could have done a lot better of a job at explaining the racial stereotype Sunflower was based on, and how that is problematic, as well as a little bit more into the history of racism in Disney’s works. Also I’m liable to wonder why you claimed you wanted to add more diversity to your art, yet we didn’t see that reflected in the piece?

What the heck is being whispered in the background?
