flimflam

aww that's cute! i more or less do just use the lasso tool though! i still practice my linework all the time on paper but digitally i don't really enjoy the nitty gritty stuff that comes with clean lined work, so i really enjoy the freedom that comes with the lasso tool. plus i really like the sort of loose, smooth yet textured look and the emphasis on shape and form that comes with it (<- rambling a bit, sorry!)

yayyy thank you so much!!! i'm glad i've been able to make some progress😁

yaaay @Crypty Scribbles thank you so much!! i really love working with bright colours and organic shapes it always feels really satisfying to do😁 you should give the lasso tool a go sometime it really is so much fun!!!

this looks so fun!! i really love these, the looks and personalities really complement each other! it's so cool for a randomised character to feel so cohesive usually girl characters are my faves but the first one is really appealing to me this time!

hii!!! i wish i had some pony art from recently i could post here but alas i have been on a years long people and buildings kick but as it stands i still thought it could be fun to share my recent work as a sort of artistic growth retrospective!! i have no idea if anyone still here remembers my art from back in the day (i hope no one remembers me—i was 10 or so which is kind of mortifying from where i stand now!!) but i was looking through my old stuff and i'm (despite myself) inclined to call it Unexpectedly Competent like, i'm not even mad at these. for a kid at least!! don't know why i didn't brush the eraser dust off the last one though lol!! since then, though, i've been working hard the last couple years on making pictures in a way that i find fun which has led me to the lasso fill tool. sooo fun!!!!! so here's some of my stuff from this year! i hope you like it! all of these ones above are from this year's art fight (here's my page!) i hope it isn't too troublesome for everyone for me to add a few more not from artfight.. it's just been such a productive year!! thank you to anyone who had the patience to look at even a few of these! sorry if this is an overly long post, i just get really excited about drawing!!!

sorry for replying to a post from a little while ago but i am just so unbelievably taken by these!!!! they're soooo incredibly gorgeous it makes me want to work hard and get as good with colour and appealing shapes as you are!! thank you so much for sharing!

yayy thank you everyone!! what a warm welcome 😁 it's such a nice atmosphere here! i haven't used a forum since the last time i was here so i hope i don't fumble the etiquette too bad but i like it nonetheless! kind of a vintage feel i would like to maybe get back into it! see if drawing a pony is like riding a bike, yk? i saw there was an art trade section and that sounds super fun!! i don't really have pony ocs but i do have a pony version of my human sona character who already has horse ears so maybe i should make a reference for the pony version sometime!! i love drawing for people <3

hii everyone i'm scraps(they/them)! i used to draw people's oc requests here back in 2012/2013 or so (before and after school!) until i got some critique and immediately got so sad i stopped doing requests lol.. don't worry though i still love drawing and do it all the time!!! i haven't really drawn ponies since like... middle or high school but i think i could make it happen in a pinch!! i don't know if i'll be particularly active here, it was just nice to remember this place and pop in! that said i do love making friends so we'll see how we go! how's everyone here doing? i hope everyone's well 💚
