maybe it’s because that I’ve just recently “joined the herd” about September last year if I remember it correctly  . After about a month into the show, I tried to get actively involved with the fandom community and MBS is the first brony group that I’ve joined. It was an ok group and I really feel like I want to contribute something to the fandom and bring Malaysia’s name with the other bronies around the world. I can’t draw or vector back then and just know how to use this one website that can make custom 3D pony oc, and thus, born the 3D Malaysian food ponies.

This is where thing get interesting, I posted all of the 3D Malaysian food ponies periodically (every 2 day or so) in MBS, Google+ MLP community (about 70k members back then), & here. In Google+, people accepted it well and many commented for the creative idea, and I also manage to make many great new brony friends there, Malaysian and international. But in MBS, most member there doesn’t seem to like the idea & some of the admin even thought that I was spamming the group. And without any notice from any of the admin, I was kicked out of the group and blocked. I was very depressed back then, knowing that I was “rejected by the herd” and stopped doing anything for the fandom for 3 month. 

After that, I learned how to do vector and started doing vector art. I just posted it here and in the Google+ MLP community. And the one thing that people really take notice and like is the “sitting catface meme vector” that I’ve done. I was very happy with the results and overwhelming acceptance by the international brony and decided that I’ll stick with vectoring. 

Appy burfday to a particular Arif I know.
