  2. Been a busy weekend, so I just got around to saying this now, but thank everyone for the cupcake badges.  :adorkable:

      Yeah, that's fair; I figured they were like most badges where people could only receive one, so by the time I had the chance, I assumed it was too late to give it to anyone I knew.

      I only found out how to just before the deadline came. I'm glad I did.

      You're welcome :nom:

  3. I've never successfully done a digital painting of a face before. And I've only ever hand-drawn two portraits in my life. 

    All in all, I think I've brought this to a place I'm happy with. I'm confident that next time will be better.

      Thank you!

      Really awesome work :> Looking forward to see more

  4. Manes that fall in swirls like Rarity's or Coloratura's are so difficult to draw. :stressed: 

    1. Astralshy

      Astralshy

      Yes, it's also challenging for me, but also so much fun :>

      *have a cup of tea :3

  5. I suppose this means I should learn to crochet. AE5D7DF1-AD8C-480E-AB3C-49A46855FE9B.thumb.jpeg.72f57eacceefce1c4dce29c8cecaa3a3.jpeg

      Why yes….. yes it does! :darling:

  6. People are hard to draw. Maybe someday I'll get them to be less wonky.

      I think Izzy is my favourite.

      Zipp is my favorite, followed closely by Hitch. 

    4. Patty Thundersnow

      Patty Thundersnow

      I'd say Izzy is, just because she reminds me so much of Pinkie.

  7. I tried my hand at whittling last week. I like it, but it isn’t a hobby I’m going to keep up unless I want to lose a finger. Knives are sharp. 823A53B9-9FBE-4079-A628-1779C49DB5A6.thumb.jpeg.981c3fa1ed677c264900468ac394cf9f.jpeg

      Very nice work! :D

      it's quite nice though and a cute shape!

  8. I should eat lunch, but first—some fandom music I haven’t listened to in a while.

    I should do that series rewatch, the one I always say I’m going to do but never follow up on, soon. 

    1. Astralshy

      Astralshy

      I like this song :>

    2. AppleButt

      AppleButt

      That’s a good song.

      It took me like 8 years to do a series rewatch from the first time I watched the show haha.  Well a rewatch up to the point I left off when I went on hiatus. :P

  9. Just watched the movie!

    I think I liked it, although I'll need to ruminate on it for a while. Maybe watch it again when I get the chance. It reminded me of Gnomeo and Juliet, but more rushed. :ooh:

    I'm excited for what's going to come next.

  11. @Astral Soul My first attempt that doesn't look like a mess. It's not terrible, but I want to be better at -- well, everything, but it's a start. :Thorax:

      That still looks awesome, Cagey; practice makes it perfect.

  12. I redrew the first of Star Silk's prompts, this time digitally, and played with overlays. That was fun. :twismile:

      My first day was great! My "Intro to Civil Engineering" class in particular was really fun. :eager:

  14. I felt like doing one more redraw. I'm going to try learning digital painting after this, I swear. :stressed:

      Great piece of art you have there, Cagey. Almost very accurate even in your style!

  15. I've never done a screenshot redraw before. This was fun.

  16. Hello, forums. Still glitchy, I see. :grin:

    Just finished watching LittleshyFiM’s Everfree Northwest vlog. I hope more cons return soon, because it made me wish I was there.

      It’d be nice to see a lot of fellow forumers there next year!  :BrightMacContent:

  17. Happy birthday! :-D

  18. One of my cousins’ dogs passed away suddenly and gruesomely recently. I wish I was better at giving condolences.

       Thanks You, BFFFF! :D

  20. Been working on this picture for over a week. I should have counted the hours, because sitting in this chair has become grueling.

    This one is... well, I tried to ponify a photograph this time, so there were a lot of details. Before I got to it, I was thinking about doing fancier rendering or something -- but then I realized I don't know how to do that, and I just wanted to finish up... so I will next time. Also, don't mind the wonky lighting. 

    And also, I played with layer filters this time.

      I feel you right there. You want to do something, you try out and are in cycle of redoing until it's perfect xD

    Side note: time sure moves fast, doesn’t it? One minute you’re saying “I’ll call you tomorrow,” the next minute it’s been six years. 

    1. Miss

      Miss

      That looks delicious! 

      And yea I feel you. I think I'll message my friend today to call him. Haven't talked in a few months

      Good Morning :)

      Looks like a delicious breakfast

      Yes, that sounds familiar

  22. Some days are roller coasters, to the point where they can’t even be described in one’s head, let alone in a status update.

    Here’s hoping for a boring day tomorrow. >_>

  23. Perspective and backgrounds are my nemeses, but I'm finally finished. I'm glad that this isn't rolling around in my brain anymore. :stressed:

      Pony 1 and 2 were exploring a mineshaft or something, and it started to crumble, so they had to escape on a rope pulling them up. It’s not completely fleshed out. :Thorax:

      Great perspective! Great flow, and colors!
