    Well I know I'm not the best artist. In fact, this is the first time I used photoshop in 3 years. For those who don't know, my character is as follows:
    [​IMG]

    I have yet to decide the right name for my character, but it's getting between "Solar Wind, Solar Breeze, Solar Dash, etc" I've always wanted to put my character in the show just for fun and "Winter Wrap-Up" is one of my favorites and I saw an opportunity while watching the show. I ran out of time for now, but I'll do some touch-ups later. I just wanted to see what everyone thought.:smile:

    Original:

    Photoshopped:

    The hardest part was changing the outline color for my character.(you can see quite a few mistakes) The cutie mark was also difficult considering its not many pixels to work with and my character is light grey instead of white.(a lot of the extras on the cutie mark were exposed)

    I'm still working on a story for my character, though it's pretty similar to Zephyr's.:pff:

    I'm open to some criticism, but please don't castagate me. I'm quite proud that I did this well for not touching photoshop in 3 years.:grin:

    P.S. Biggest mistake was that my character has a round face, but I just edited the color of Dr. Whooves who has a different shape for his. The picture looks much better when it's not the size of a wallpaper.

    Looks good. The only problem I see is his nose. I don't see a nostril.

    Ah, good point, I remember thinking I would have to recreate that when I started, but I forgot.:cry:

    Similar to mine? Hehe...

    That looks AMAZING!! It makes me want to learn photoshop and put Zephyr Wind into the scene! That'd be so cool!

    It looks perfect to me.
    Wow I would give just about anything to see my own OC in a picture like that.

    Ooo, if you do that and it works out for Setzer, may I have one? Just a thought...

    Would you want to replace a character or be put in as an added character? Yours may be difficult because he's much taller than any other pony, but I like a challenge.

    Ooo, that's tough. I was thinking of inserting my self 4:26 in the Gala episode, replacing the colt on the left:

    The size doesn't matter, you could shrink him if needed. If replacing the character doesn't work, I'll find a spot where you could just stick him in. :)
