Hi all! Today's video is a custom pony for channel subscriber Linda ("Din" - deviantart.com/dinstraction), who shared her story with me and inspired me to create this little Grässtrå / Dandelion for her. You can listen to her story in the video (from 1:10 to 2:55). I hope you like it, Din! And watchers! And forgive me, please, lovers of the 40th anniversary Hasbro ponies. Minty said she was happy to evolve into Blade of Grass ;)
(Quick note: I'm using a new subtitle generation tool that saves me hours of manual writing work. Please let me know if they look acceptable!)
(Quick note 2: I forgot to add the head-coming-off warnings!! The main one is 1:44)
