    I used a reference, for a drawing that complex I like to have some to refer to so I don't butcher it.
    Thank you Placid!

    I've actually never really participated in a real art contest before Eight, but I'll think on it.

    And Turk, that was kinda the point!

    This stuff is great. It's loads better than what I can do, and this stuff is hand-drawn most of the time.

    I can see you going higher with continued effort, for sure.

    Well, at a drawing a night, I'm sure that classifies as 'continued effort' an soon I will have a tablet to work with along with my hand-drawn stuff

    You need to use constructions lines. Otherwise your art will always be wonky/out of proportion.

    Drawing each day is the best way to improve. You're already doing something right and well.

    For a long time all my practice was by .5mm mechanical pencil. The lines are the most important part with ponies too, so once you get all that down, the uploading and inking can be learned quickly - especially since they use vector coloring a lot, and no shading really.

    Nice job on the drawings. I also like the minimalistic background edits you did. Those looked really cool ^_^
