So what's all this I hear about people not liking Sombra? Or rather feeling like he's a let down? Nonsense!!!

Yes I know he's different from the past villains in that he didn't really say much but I think that on it's own actually can tell you a lot about him. I actually think he might be one of the most evil of the villains thus far. Nightmare Moon was formed out of the pain of jealousy that Luna suffered at a perceived rejection. It was her desire to be loved that drove her. Discord is...well he's Discord. While I do have my opinions about chaos vs. order Discord himself was really just bored and wanted to be entertained. Chrysalis my be the most innocent of all of them in that she was really just doing what she thought she had to in order to take care of her subjects. Sombra on the other hand was originally a unicorn, a normal pony who's ambition and lust for power drove him to enslave and imprison an entire pony nation. As to his not having any memorable dialogue, I think that speaks to his character as well. His own lust for power has turned against him, consuming him to degree that he can no longer even articulate normal language. Evil.

So yeah. All that to say I wasn't disappointed with him at all. And then I drew a picture. Tadaa!

I just wrote a ballad over Sombra . . .
Do you mind if I use this photo as a cover for it?
I captures his essence . . . perfectly.

I like this drawing because not only there are good light's effects and the tecnique is good, but also here King Sombra vaguely looks like Alucard of Hellsing, one of my favourite manga characters. Cool!!!

Thank you very much! I'm not super familiar with Hellsing or the character Alucard but it's cool that you could make that connection.

King Sombra's design is epic, but he hardly got any screentime ast all. Our fandom? Pfft, we just make him into art!

Also, why does he have two styles of eyes? Green and red, then white and red. I thought the white and red was a blooper in the episode, maybe not though...

His normal eye color is the red and white. The evil magic is the green and red with the purple streamy things. It included both simply for dramatic effect.
