I plan on doing one for all the mane six. AJ is first up cause I LOVED her design. Idk who I’m doing next but I figured I’d just make a thread. stay tuned

Haven’t drawn in a long time for the most part. But managed to doodle on my iPad for a little bit today. ;3; Ole girl Sunshine Bliss is almost a decade old lol. I remember making her in like high school/college.

Thinking about it over the last few years of my life I had zero confidence in myself. Ever since 6th grade I battled with low self esteem and social anxiety. I felt ugly and hated myself. But over this last year I have a renewed confidence. Granted I'm not 100% confident in myself, but I feel better about my appearance. Saw a dermatologist for my acne, saw a psychiatrist for my anxiety. Basically I just stopped beating myself up and tried to get help. My braces and jaw surgery has even helped me with my smile. Before I was bullied by this girl because my smile made me look...meh. But now my smile is a lot better and it's made me a lot happier.

Whatever you like. Tree or flower or both I don't care. I love Cherry Blossoms. Just so pretty!

So this is what my teeth looked like on day 1 when I got my braces on Halloween last year. I had a major overbite and open bite plus my teeth weren't exactly straight. But my jaw was a bigger problem than my teeth were. ^^literally that's me biting down. In February I had double jaw surgery and wisdom teeth removal. After 6 weeks of excruciating pain from my nerves coming back faster than normal and hunger pains from being on a liquid diet/no chew diet for exactly 6 weeks until my jaw bones healed I pulled through the first part of my journey. Let me tell you, the only part I hated more than not being able to eat real food was for the first week I threw up blood constantly. But this month it'll be officially 7 months since that terrible time in my life. This is the result of the surgery and braces so far. I have a couple gaps on my bottom teeth right now but they'll close up sooner or later. I should be out of braces sometime in the summer. My orthodontist said I'll be in braces for only a few more months. A little less than two years total. So what's your story, if you have one that is? If not, do you ever think about getting braces? EDIT: its now been about 14 months into my treatment. The gaps on my bottom teeth are pretty much gone. I have to wear rubber bands all day in a sort of U pattern to help my bite close since I have tongue thrust(causes open bites) which I am working on fixing with these damn spikes my ortho put in my mouth a couple months ago. I'd say I think I kicked that habit but idk.
