Well, I've decded to venture around the subforum more... Heh, love that picture of Photo Finish. XD The twilight pictures are looking great too!
Well, I've got Haze and Darkshine, and I will get ZW's, and I will ask for Zeph's, but ZH's doesn't seem to be in any of Snickershine's threads... Thanks gaiz! I did a few more drawings, but I don't have time to scan what with all the chaos in the house. I'll post them Friday probably. In one massive post. :3 And I will attempt drawing Legion, Haze, and Darkshine--and Firebreeze? Are all of you, and Firebreeze, okay if I do that?
Applejack and then Rainbow and then Appleteeny. ^^ Spoiler: Applejack I did the hair wrong there, but otherwise I like it. Spoiler: Rainbow Dash The eyes are totally weird, but at least I did my first drawing of pegasus wings right! Spoiler: Appleteeny The hat is totally just hanging on the edge of Applejack's head for some reason. >.> I couldn't get that right for some reason... Spoiler: legion That one I like, but I really need to practice drawing them in different positions. This will come next on my list of things to practice! Now, I drew a few pictures of Haze and also one of Dark Shine: Spoiler: Haze I made the body a bit stretched on that one, so I tried again: Spoiler: Haze again Heh. Hope I didn't massacre her too badly, DoDo. Also, I couldn't make out what her cutie mark was... And here is Dark Shine. I didn't think I did it too well, and it wasn't until I actually scanned it in that I realized: -facehoof- Something very important was missing! Can you guess what? xD Spoiler: Dark Shine Well, that's all for now. Soon I'll have some more, prolly of the Zephyrs. KK?
I like it! Ignoring the fact that somepony shaved of my tail :Trollestia: But really, it looks awesome. -Saved into OC folder-
Yyyyyyyeeeeeaaaahhh, lol. Didn't catch that until after I scanned, like I said. I'll fix it though! And also maybe draw a few more.
When you put the tail on, do you mind also putting the signiature slit in the ears for the shows style? Just to be picky!
Okay! Next: 1. Fix Dark Shine's tail 2. Draw picture(s) of Zephyr Wind, because I have no pics of the others yet 3. Most likely I will find something to fill this slot by the time I am done with the other two. xD Edit: Okay, that's the third time within the hour! Seriously, I need to type faster. I meant for his ear to be folded down, but I suppose it can be bent back if you want it to be. ^^
Is this what it feels like to be a celebrity? Somehow I thought I would feel more confident. xD Well, thanks for the complement, Zeph! I'm sure it won't be nearly as good as your avatar, though. Well, I'm off. Tally ho!
Time for next update! I have Dark Shine's OC, fixed (He now has a tail), and I added a few other things I forgot to do as well. It looks much better, don't you think? Spoiler: Dark Shine Revised I think it looks much better. And here is Zephyr Wind. Spoiler: Yumm That...took me 1.5 hours, as opposed to the usual 25 minutes. I COULD NOT GET HIS HEAD RIGHT! I still don't think his face looks right, and also I just realized that his Cutie Mark is backwards...but there you are. A hungry Zephyr Wind in a room alone with a cupcake. I could not resist the urge to put a goofy look on his face. That's probably why it doesn't look right. Totally worth it! That's all for tonight. I shall draw moar versions of all these OCs until I get them right, but Zeph's is the only one I've had any real trouble with.
For the head try moving his mouth/nose lower down (just a little bit) and move his eye up further, so it's partially covered by that bit of hair coming down. To me it looks like you've got the shape right just the positioning is a bit off. Nice pictures though man, and lots of them too
Thanks! Mayhaps I'll fix this pic as well... I don't like this kind of head. Zephyr, your head is hard to draw! Well, you know what this means? That's right! MORE PRACTICE!
Lauren Faust once said on her dA page, to imagine that you have like 4,000 bad drawings in you, and to get them out as fast as possible, then you'll be able to draw consistently well. Which is just a fancy way of saying practice makes perfect. :derpe: By the by, have you taken a gander at Faust's or Sabrina Alberghetti's dA pages? They have rough sketches of canon ponies in their galleries, so you can see each individual pencil stroke that took to draw the canon ponies. It definitely helped me when I was trying to draw on-model ponies. Also, if you're unfamiliar with the technique of volumetric progression, it's definitely something to look into, and very helpful when fleshing out characters to make sure the proportions are correct. Can't wait to see more
Excellent! Keep up the practice. I do think you squared the hooves a little more than traditional, but that can be attributed to a form of style, (kinda like how I go beyond the show-style pegasus wings and go more for the original Faust concepts.) :derpe:
@ Yami and Darkshine: Thanks! Yami, I shall have yours done by tonight if all goes as planned. @ Frost: I will definitely look into that. @ Eight Star: Hmmm...I prefer to attribute it to not enough practice, lol. But if you say so! Anyhoof, here's Snow Mark: Spoiler: Snow Mark If Snow is even here, then there you are, Snow! Sorry if I got the hair wrong, when I tried to enlarge the original picture, it...well, it didn't end well. And next on my to-do list: 1. Draw Yami's OC 2. Draw Silver 3. Draw Facia 4. Draw Windborne 5. Draw Endless Ensemble 6. Draw Simon's OC after asking his permission 7. Continue practicing on Snow, Haze, and Dark Shine in order to draw the picture with all four of them in it. (I'll even have to draw them interacting! -faints-)
I'm doing that too, so dont start saying stuff like that! Remember, if you ever need support, just look to a dictionary, hit yourself on the head with it, and then try thinking! Or dont. Its your choice.
