Yepp, the same as gyashaa said.

Looks really neat! Thank You very much man! ^^

Sure! ^^ Best of luck with it, and Thank You again!

Sure, i might as well lurk here too, hehe. Basically anything you are okay with doing with this character: (Maybe a full picture? if it's difficult, a profile picture is good too!) http://orig13.deviantart.net/e616/f/2015/079/a/a/erad_ref_picture_1_by_asadama-d8mglm4.png http://orig02.deviantart.net/7ba5/f/2015/080/f/2/tumblr_n35onom6dq1t4v2flo2_1280_by_asadama-d8mm7xn.png http://pre00.deviantart.net/1d44/th/pre/i/2015/080/8/1/erad_style1_commish2res_by_asadama-d8mm7wm.png http://orig05.deviantart.net/4634/f/2015/080/1/e/erad_strum_by_asadama_d7hr5bg_by_asadama-d8mm7yf.jpg His BIO page: http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/erad-strum-r8012 I thank you for anything, in advance! ^^

I think it looks really awesome!It's simplistic looking, but gets the job done!With a few more small details it would be perfect! (Maybe add the noselines for example.)

Sure thing! ^^ Thank You too.

Well, anything you feel comfortable doing with this character. Two different styles.He has a regular body with the changeling chitin, and jagged horn.(no cheese-legs)The chitin is the best illustrated on the first picture.

Well sure heh.*Raises his hoof in anticipation*

Awesome furry body i say!I really like her mane and colours! ^^ Only thing which would seem a bit off is the gem on her chest.It seems to be above her fur, i don't know if she has a necklace or something under it which is able to hold the gem, but it is nice nonetheless.

Indeed he looks really nice! I like his colours, it really gives the gothic feel you went for!

The one thing i can't stand is to play on a smartphone.You can't play without blocking half of the screen with your hands and the controls are horrible.Also i am more comfortable with the older designs. The feels man... : I

I really like the rose on her head, it came out really nicely! Your style is an anime/mlp hybrid, which is awesome! :DD I love how her eyes are gleaming.

Same from here too! An outline would definetelly fix it. But i say it's good! ^^

They are amazing! ^-^ You got a +Watch/Follow from me. My favourites are Evaine, Crasher and Lovenotes! Your style is almost show like, but with your own twist in it. Very good job i say! Keep it up.

That's fine in my opinion! ^^ I say practice makes a master of his/her craft, so that's the key.

I would say it's never been better! As others have said above, you can reach a bigger audiance than ever before!If you do things right and expose yourself to others it is possible. But nothing comes to you without working for it.If you are certain that this is what path you want to take in life then go for it! It is difficult yes, with today's competitive nature, i won't lie it is, but it is not impossible, nothing is. I for one am certain that i want to remain in the field of art, maybe i will have to take part time jobs next to it, but that doesn't really bother me.It helps me go forward.In 2-3 years i was able to raise my artistic scales to what i have today, i take several commissions for a descent payment whenever i can, so i can't be sad with what i have achieved so far. We need art for everything, from commercials, illustrations, conceptual artwork, to many other things! I think the statement still lives, that if someone truly chases his/her dreams it can come true. So, i would say just grab a pen/pencil, a good ol'sketchbook and start practicing! ^^

They are not awful, but i would advise you to look into practicing basic shapes mainly spheres because that could be really helpfull on drawing ponies.(Especially because that's how their body is made up.) Also basic shapes in 3d space, to have a sence of depth, scales and structure.The good thing in ponies is that their structure is relaively simple, it's just circles mainly, and beside the basic shapes, after you get yourself familiar with the cornerstones of their anatomy, you can start applying your own touch/style to it. Also, you can start copying other people's artwork too, it also helps you understand how things look etc. . (But do not claim copies made for practicing porpuses as your own creations.)

Hy! This sounds very sweet of you dear! I would humbly request one from you if there is still a free place for it of course! If it's acceptable, Thank You in advance! ^^ My OC's page: http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/erad-strum-r8012 (He doesn't have a cutie mark, i guess it makes things easier, hehe.) He is a male, and an adult.
