It is only SIX WEEKS until The Longest Pony begins! If you're looking for a last-minute Christmas present, may we humbly suggest tickets to one of the shows?

A picture of the Voyage album artwork, the floating sky island (skyland?) in the distance with its rustic buildings and high domed towers, and in the foreground the hull of a flying ship with swarthy sky-sailor leaning over the edge while supporting himself from a rope, the whole thing cast in sunset tones of oranges and browns. THEN, through the image loops the uncomfortably long body of Gazpacho the Longest Pony, entering from the rear left behind the island, and draping around the back of the island and its buildings, before reaching into the fore of the image and across the deck of the ship, leaving the image to the right. A radical tonal shift here, where we see a Japanese man in a suit, stood in what appears to be a zoo. He is facing to the left with outstretched arms, one angled up, one down, and between them is pulling a lengthy strip of Long Sakeru Gummy, a Japanese confectionary. In the background, the lengthy body of Gazpacho enters the shot from the left, stretching through the shot, and leaves on the right. At the top of the shot, the subtitles ~Long Long Pony~ are visible. It's a picture, surprise, this time courtesy of Erian so your poster takes minimal responsibility. It shows an enormous, white trumpet statue photographed from a low angle, in front of a building and with a bright blue sky in the background. The body of Gazpacho enters from out of shot on the left, disappears into the mouthpiece of the trumpet, and then exits through the bell and off out of shot. A cosy stock image Christmas scene, featuring an enclosed fire burning away in the background, piles of cut wood underneath and around it, a chair with a few presents piled up on the left, and two pairs of be-socked feet warming in front of the fire. Then, intruding onto the scene, the body of Gazpacho arrives from the top left and sort of dangles down into the shot before curling around over and then behind the feet in front of the fire, so as to warm itself in the fashion of a particularly disconcerting puppy, before once again wending its way onwards to the right of the image and leaving. Merry Christmas?

KEEP SHARING to see how far we can stretch both the pony, and the upper limits of what can be accomplished with the Warp tool and minimal art skills!
Tickets still available, make sure to get yours!

A shot of a beach at evening, where Gazpacho's enlengthened body enters from the left, crosses the beach, and then plunges down into the sand on the right. The three-headed MS Paint Longest Johns Amalgamation is sat astride Gazpacho, arms raised in triumph. In front of them, is a wooden sign saying "Long Pony Rides" An image showing a sandy desert where, in the middle, a huge caldera has erupted and from the middle, the body of Gazpacho is bursting forth amid a cloud of badly-photoshopped dust and debris, before disappearing once more off to the right of the frame. In front of this crater, two small figures can be seen standing in what may be some sort of awe. This is a still from Dune. The joke is that Gazpacho is taking the place of a sandworm. This is a shot from the game Elden Ring. In the background, a glowing, golden Minor Erdtree can be seen towering over the Altus Plateau location. Coming into shot from the left, the body of Gazpacho is seen, while in the foreground a player character sits on a cliff in the dim evening light. At the bottom of the shot, a boss health bar is visible, titled "Gazpacho, The Longest Pony" This shows a segmented rainbow-striped body running straight across the scene from left to right, against a dark blue background with stars. To the right can just be seen the possible hair and ear of Gazpacho! We nearly caught him, but oh no I think he's going to get away! Perhaps if this image had music it would be singing the Nyan Cat song, who knows.

A recently-shared picture of Marti from El Pony Pisador, lying in a hospital bed, with his right leg completely in plaster. He is grinning and has his fingers up in a 'peace' sign. Coming in from the left of the frame is the lengthened body of Gazpacho, which is draped over his broken leg, and under his unbroken one, before leaving to the right. A shot of a team of men in a snow-covered frozen wasteland. They are dressed in arctic exploration gear appropriate to an 1845-1848 time period, and dragging a small boat on a sled that is probably laden with their supplies. Gazpacho is trailed through the scene and across the snowy ground, where members of the party are stepping over him. They show no signs of Terror. Some tonal whiplash now as Gazpacho is weaving his way through a shot from a Longest Johns Community Project video, appearing under and over various frames of different recordings. Lastly, Gazpacho is present in a shot from the press kit for GEOFF KEIGHLEY'S VIDEO GAME AWARD GAME OF THE YEAR AWARD NOMINEE Balatro, where his troubling body is hanging below the game's UI and trailed beneath the displayed cards.
