Rio

^ The pegasi actually looks a lot like my Ponysona! Thanks so much W00t! Welcome, also please be sure to save it. I'd hate for it to eventually some how be lost if I were to purge my puush at any time. So I figured I'd give you that heads up~

Tools of Trade & Tips Paint Tool Sai - Art Program Photoshop CS6 - Small effects some times Wacom Intuos 3 Tablet - Used forever Wrist guard - Good for those who have carpole tunnel like me or those who roll/easily feel pain with their hand. Tip #1 Waterbottle - Trust me using water while staying occupied for hours at a time working on art its good to keep something with less sugar. Plus you can buy flavor water packets if you really desire something with flavor. Tip #2 Do not sit for periods of time that last longer than 5 hours. You must get around and walk, bad things can happen to muscles and veins if you leave them in one position or not move them for longer than this. Sometimes it can even be life threatening! Take your time on art and be sure to go out and walk even if you desire to stay and draw. Tip #3 If you're like me and stay up late at night drawing you learn pretty fast its bad for your stomach and also health to snack out on things during all hours. I recommend eating light fruits or maybe even nuts if you aren't allergic. Eating junk food or full blown meals can end up making you nauseated and possibly harder to find sleep quicker. Tip #4 DO NOT force your self to stay awake. Work on art at your own pace and do not think you have to rush to get things done and plus disrupting your own sleep patterns can be harmful in it self. Tip #5 MOST IMPORTANTLY... Save your work continuously cause for the love of Celestia I have lost so much work by not saving regularly. This out of the way... *cracks knuckles* Lets get to business.. I guess I'll start from oldest to newest of my recent works. Kayy so this first one is a bit of fan art based from the IDW comics so if you plan to read or haven't read to the 'Reflections arc' then I do not really recommend looking. If you do not care then be my guest! These next three are fan art from Equestria Girls: Friendship Games so again if you do not want potential spoilers.. Then do not hesitate skipping this spoiler section all together. If you notice I relatively screwed up her outfit on most of the images then you'd be correct. It was frustrating for me to even figure those out. Everything else? Piece of cake mostly.. But the clothing just.. WHY This is fan art of Sunset Shimmer, mostly was a practice run really. My theory is her being the Princess of Guidance with element being possibly "empathy" or "forgiveness" Because she was two sides of a coin and knows both walks of life. Plus the fact who knows what hardships she had to overcome offscreen. These two are together because they are kinda a 'mini story' in my mind I could never actually form into words into a fanfiction. Majorly what happens is Discord gets corrupted by his own dark magic arts and begins tormenting Fluttershy with nightmares that are endless. Resulting in eventually her breaking fully and him able to use his power to turn Fluttershy into a sort of Nightmare Moon sort of thing. Unnamed Pony though I have been tempted to just name her Silver Music.. Well anyway ear is awkwardly placed and so is the horn. But hey practice makes perfect! This was my first shot of drawing tirek! Inspired by a animatic by Ink Potts! Just search up "You're only second rate animatic" by Ink Potts ;v; This final image was inspired by a fan fiction. If you wish to know which one I'll gladly share via PM! I am trying to evade directly sharing things publicly without permission to do so out of respect for the authors/Artists. PS. Sketches and other unfinished art will probably be posted via blogging once I have ability to make blogging posts. :>

Thank you! I am sure I will :> Thanks~ So far I agree everyone seems very friendly! I'll consider PMing you, also look forward to seein' you around as well. ;v; Heyyo Kenshiro! Pleasure to meet your acquaintance. Thank you for the welcome~ I will try to not shy around here, shying tends to make it a bit harder to meet others and befriend 'em. I'll consider PMing you if I need to ask about something <3 Ello~ Thank you for the welcome! I am sure I will and definitely hope I can make new friends. Definitely will PM if I need help with things!

Welcome to the site! Though I recently joined I thought I may as well also welcome newer users. I am also a fan of making theories! Though sometimes I fry my own brain trying to make sense of those theories. :v Regardless here is a little welcome gift! Its not the best thing but I am trying to learn anatomy of ponies slowly so good practice!

My Favourite Mane 6 Pony: Twilight Sparkle How did you find MLP Forums?: Via Google while searching for something specific. Figured, why not? I am after making friends in this fandom since I am still pretty sure I tend to annoy my friends who are not. How you became a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: Well truthfully I was a fan back around Season 2 being released. After a friend had introduced it to me. But for a duration of time I stopped being a fan, but suddenly this year I got really interested in it again and have devoted a lot of time to reading fanfictions- drawing fan art- and trying to find where I stand in the community. First step is to join websites related to MLP! So here I am. First off I am terrible at titles. That aside I figured I'd explain a bit about me, though my profile does have some information In do not need to add to this forum post. Regardless Deep breathes I go by the name Rio despite my display name being Silver Music right now. ( Kind just went with my Gameloft game name since I do not currently have any characters firmly named and wanted a change) I draw digitally and on rare occasions with a mechanical pencil and sketchbook when I do not have computer access. I draw more than just ponies but recently I have drawn quite a lot of sketches n stuff related to ponies. Eventually hope to contribute art to the community eventually, need more practice though. Outside of that I am a wee bit socially awkward in the physical world and just gonna say it right now my honesty is probably rivaling with Applejack at this point. I have a tendency to say it like it is so just a heads up about this if you ever encounter me after reading my introduction. Also since there is no specifics for other favorite characters from the show and EQG movies, I might as well mention some in no specific order! Nightmare Moon // Princess Luna Sunset Shimmer Midnight Sparkle // Sci-Twi Discord ( He is literally my favorite subject to draw at this point ) And surprisingly Tirek is catching my attention now. But I am a bit awkward with humanoid anatomy so I do not draw him frequently. Anyway.. I am not actually sure there is anything else I can actually say in this.. So, have a hello sketch of discord from me! Pleasure to meet you all!
