Patchwork

NekoMellow(Neon Assplosion) is a huge bitch. You say you don't like something she made, she sends you hate and blocks you. I have 2 DA's so imma have ALL THE FUN! I'd rather not. I'm pretty cautious about strangers on the internet...

Heh, I know! Everypony is so friendly here..wait huh? *guards nipples* I like these! They're like accessories for my bewbs...lolwutidonteven

Bolt is essentially a red and white RD recolor. Both of the creators(Neon Assdrippings McRainbowqueef and Not RD) are complete dickheads.

Welp, I didn't want to sleep tonight anyway.... Creo que quieras decir hermana...

I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about but thanks a lot for the warm welcome!

Yaaaay. I'm curious though...why do eyesores like Bolt and Neon Boom get fans, but the cute OCs aren't even noticed? Is the internet like high school: scene assholes are loved while sweethearted plain janes are forgotten?

Heh, thank you! I've been thinking about Sew Sweet's future and came up with a bit about her. Around the time of Sew Sweet's 11th birthday, Toffee Twist came back to Manehattan to try to become a part of her life, but Patchwork wouldn't have it. He had been used by her so many times..even he couldn't forgive her. But Sew Sweet wanted nothing more than to have a happy family, and while she had a very close relationship with her father, she needed her mom too. She stayed up all night for days, sewing a quilt for them in hopes of reuniting her parents. When she was finished, she showed it to Toffee and Patchwork. It pictured a basic tan stallion on a pink background nuzzling a brown mare with a red background and under their noses was a dark brown filly with a purple background. It wasn't professionally stitched, no it was clearly done by her, but Patchwork and Toffee loved it. The two older ponies on the brink of liquid pride, decided to make up. Even more so, Toffee noticed that the incident had left her daughter's flank not-so blank. Three cloth squares appeared, one pink, one red and one purple. While they didn't get back together, Patchwork would allow Toffee to visit anytime and babysit. Sew Sweet is just that: sweet. She's a sucker for romance and loves helping others work out their issues. She will work as a school counselor when she's older. Her talent is stitching wounded relationships back together and mending injured hearts.

I was actually going to add this, but imma post it here. He always feels inadequate, like he isn't good enough. He believes it's his fault Toffee cheated and left him, and he worries about his daughters future.

http://mlpforums.com/topic/74140-my-oc-patchwork/#entry1867381 I'm not sure if I've carved out his past enough...I also don't need him to be a stu. Wonder if I'm actually doing it right?

Hey, I posted his backstory. Maybe help me improve it? I'm always open to criticism and suggestions, provided they're not along the lines of OMG DUZ OCEE SUX AZZZZZ

You know, I would use Photoshop, but I'm gonna have to wait until I get it for Christmas....maybe I'll just stick to pencil and paper. Haven't steered me wrong yet.

Thank you everypony for such a warm welcome. I'm new to digital art so it means a lot that you like it!

Oh, I use GraphicsGale and started digitally drawing ponies only about a week ago. Traditional art is my strength. I know, I'm not too great..

I'm a bit unsure if I have to improve his story or design so I would like opinions about it please ~ I've attached pictures of See Sweet (older)and Toffee as well. Story- So, this is my OC, Patchwork. He’s 20 years old and his talent is sewing, namely toys and clothes for his daughter, Sew Sweet. When he was 18, he found that his marefriend, Toffee Twist, was pregnant. After the foal was born, she left Patchwork and moved to Seaddle. Now, Patchwork lives in a small apartment with his one year old filly, Sew Sweet. He works 2 jobs, one at a toy store and another pulling carriages in Canterlot. When he’s away at work, Patchwork’s mother watches Sew Sweet at her house. He does everything he can to make sure that his daughter doesn’t go without, even not eating normally to make sure he has money for formula for her. He gets sick fairly often due to not eating adequately, but still works all day for her. He’s selfless to the point where he’ll endanger his own health for someone else, very religious, a few parasprites short of a swarm, but he’s a loving father to his little princess. When he was a colt, he wanted nothing more than to be a teacher. He was a good student and always did well on exams. Patchwork loved to learn and help others learn, even dedicating his afternoons to tutor struggling ponies. His best friend was a pegasus from Austria named Grand Scale. Patchwork helped him with academics and in turn, Grand Scale helped him learn piano, although Patchwork never did quite have any talent for music... Patchwork always loved sewing and helped his parents run their quilt shop as a colt. His mother, Heartfelt, always knew her son would be just her and her husband, and always appreciated it greatly when Patchwork would help out. His father, Lockstitch, adored his son and never forgot to take the time to play with him and help him. Everyday after school, Patchwork would help them out by sewing small quilts, fetching twine, sweeping, stocking shelves etc. This earned him a lot of bullying from the other colts at school. They would tell him that sewing is for fillies and colts play stormball and have fights and get dirty, but he didn't care. Nothing could deter him from his passion. Then he met Toffee Twist, a sassy, manipulative, beautiful and at times nasty young mare. He loved her, from her "I don't care what you think" attitude to her culinary prowess right down to her fiery red eyes. He eventually worked up the nerve to ask her out and, thinking he'd be fun to toy with, agreed. t first, Toffee was loving, kind and a faithful marefriend to Patchwork but over time, grew bored with him and started cheating on him with her current coltfriend, Ribeye. Being very religious, Patchwork wanted to wait until marriage to have sex, but Toffee wouldn't have it. She blackmailed him into having sex with her by threatening to tell the police he beat her(Ribeye has temper issues and hit her once)and a year later left him with their daughter, Sew Sweet.

I can definitely see your reasoning, but it is possible to have a good alicorn oc. By giving them more noticeable personality flaws rather than dumbing down their flight or magic, an alicorn can have balance.
