This is possibly the stupidest ongoing argument in this fandom. At least the derpy drama has the freedom of expression vs. what counts as offensive.
This is just whining about someone's fan art because it's not what you imagined.

"An African Celestia just doesn't fit with her voice and how she is shown in the tv series as well as appearance."

Well, of course it doesn't fit the appearance, silly. She's a goddamn pony. ^_^

Logic doesn't befall people often, but it seems to have befallen Fellmoon.

While I do agree that race and ethnicity is up to artist interpretation, there are certain logical limits that should be obvious to everyone. Based on what the show has shown us, Zebras are indeed supposed to be African American and Buffalo are more or less Native American. If a certain character is not one of these ethnicities in the show, then logic would dictate that they would not be such in reality.

Skin color is fucking HEADCANON, like our friend in the second comment said.

Fuck you, my Celestia is black, my Rarity is Asian, and my Twilight is Indian. And there's nothing anyone can do to stop me!

@ CodenameOne

If logic applied to fanart, I'd agree with you, but it doesn't, and that's why we have Cteno, Sweetiepoo, inflated ponies etc.

So to anyone, go ahead and make humanized versions of the mane cast be any race you want. It's not like it's official Hasbro art that people actually have a reason to bitch and moan.

I have nothing to say about the amount of logic placed in things like Cteno, Sweetiepoo, inflated ponies, or anything else of the sort as logic applied to fetishes only works in the sense that it is the logic of opinion.

@CodenameOne: Zebras are an African analogue, not African American. That damned America-centric worldview irritates me to no end, especially when people make assumptions about things.

Well OK, fine. But my point still stands. Zebras are analogous to Africans, and Buffalo are still analogous to Native American. Those are the only specified ethnicities, of which the Mane 6 or either of the Princesses are not a member of.

Nah I'm not mad, anon 170. Just calmly and flatly stating logic. I'm not trying to say you CAN'T make any pony any ethnicity you want when you make them humans, but I am telling you that your choice may or may not be illogical and make no sense.

Nah, it definitely falls into an artist's own interpretation.

Just because it doesn't make sense for the fandom or other viewers doesn't mean it has no business existing. Artists should do what they want do, period.

I agree, Telling artists that they can't do what they want seems quite douchey in my opinion

I love how this fandom is totally okay with pony bondage porn, but god help you if your Twilight is anything but lily-white.

Actually it only seems to be when you make her black.
Asian Twilight barely gets any complaints.

Why do you you have to make them human to begin with? Oh yeah to fap to... my bad. Carry on.

Well, we've gotta humanize everything because people just can't just help but turn everything to anime.

Because that's just how the internet works.

If you're human, you get turned into ponies, kittens, puppies, etc. and vice-versa.

I just know there's a rule for it like rule34 somewhere.
