Why is it that, when you guys do a humanization of the mane 6, many of you keep him as a dragon, or worse:turn him into a lizard. I mean, I understand that being a dragon is a important part of spike's character, but so is being a unicorn for twilight, or being a pegasus for rainbow dash. And some you guys simply add wings and horns to the human versions. Why not make spike human, and just give him a tail or repitilian eyes (some people do that)? I mean some people make a bold move, by fully humanizing the ponies and spike, and I like that. It gives the artist a challenge to see how the world would incoporate things from the show. Something even have to change a bit, but it's all in the challenge.

And why do some of you make him a lizard? He's not a pet! When did they, at any point say that he's a pet? If he was, he'd by like all the pets that the mane 6 have, and not talk. Heck, he can't be twilight's pet, especially humanized, since he has a pet, Peewee. Also, in the Secret of My Excess twilight takes spike to a pony doctor, as if he was an equal. It wasn't until the doctor suggested it, that she took him to the vet.

Now, before any of you jump to conclusions, I like the approach that many of you take. And I won't force any of you to change your style. If you like him the way he is, or like him as a lizard, that's fine. That's your vision. I'm just wondering why you like it that way, is all? I'm sorry if I at any point hurt anyone's feelings in my comment. I'm just a curious person, is all.
