thank you I feel the same about artists that are much better than, in that case, deviantART is a true challenge. it could be many things, we are on off season, the fight over EqG stills, discussions are more popular, the request guild is full as well, many things. Whatever the reason is, it upsets me, and there's no room for me to feel like this so I rather avoid that.

thanks buddy

the "snobs" of EQD can be anything we want but what it's true is that if we get featured it will boost our recognition income and people interested in our art. Thank you though, it was a nice comment

True. MLPforums is not the best place to post art, this is not a place for criticism nor learning art, but you know what? this forums helped me to build the confidence that I needed to grow more and practice even more because I was about to pretty much give up on art and continue with whatever job I could find. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate every single comment I receive, but I was used to get more compliments, I really don't have any other way to make this sound less egocentric, but that's something everyone has, we can't deny it, especially when you discover that you have a talent at doing something. perhaps you're right, maybe the forums interests are shifting to others now, now that Equestria Girls is out, or new RP's coming, or the popularity of making new art requests. I remember those days, when people posted a lot on the fan-art section. I guess you're right on that. Advertising my threads was something I always wanted to avoid because I didn't want to seem like I was forcingly seeking for attention (something I feel, I am doing right now) @, I draw for myself! but one of those things that you wonder all the time... will everyone like it? what's the point of making a beautiful Twilight Sparkle painting, if you're not gonna share it with the world, especially if you think like me. Sure, you can hang it on your wall, but what if you want to grow and live out of your art and everything that comes afterwards out of it? That's how I think Yes I do this for myself, that's the reason why I want to get big on the fandom, I want my name in one of the best artist lists, seems like I'm greedy, and perhaps I am, but I do this for my future, I really do want to this. This fandom can open me a lot of REAL LIFE doors, especially if you live in a country with no fields for digital art and especially a family that DOES not support you in any way and think that your talent is a waste of time. Hey, having a little bit of recognition and demanding it (when you deserve it) it's not a sin. The internet is a place a bad place, but it's also a place to get known, and to get opportunities, if you don't gamble, if you don't risk it all you don't win.

those and many more are the feelings that made me human, and not better or worse than someone else.

man I can't trully say if the site is morphing and interests are different or no, but what it's true is that reality is a bitch and it hits hard, that's why I made that choice.

I won't be quitting as an artist but it is pretty much what the thread's title says. Recently, I've been feeling a big disconnection with the site. It can be due a lot of different factors that I won't get into because that's another separate issue, or just not about them at all. The important thing is that I don't feel interested. I keep logging on, but my routine is always the same, daily I always log on, but keep my mlpforums tab in the index for hopes of new notifications, as expected, nothing. And it makes sense because I don't post a thing during the day, yes, a few posts here and there in the pictures thread. But what I'm saying is that I have no interest, no will to discuss the show or other things in the forums, not even the forums games. I really don't know if I am in that phase of "growing up". This seems like a good bye blog entry but it's not, because I feel like I still have a connection with the fandom, and I do it through art, I love drawing ponies and it became like a natural thing of mine, drawing pony bodies over everything else. Why am I mentioning all of this? well, the lack of posts of mine have had it's consequences and affects when I make an art thread, I feel like a stranger, like a new member when I post art now because only the veteran members know me, but not the new ones. I remember when I used to post art threads in a frequent pace, it was thrilling to see your comments and feedback, and I always will be thankful for your appreciation, really. But recently the feedback that I've been getting while it wasn't bad, it was poor, yes it was very poor compared to the feedback that I used to get before. I seem like an attention whore, yes I am, I seem like a prideful bitch, yes I am, Butthurt? yes I am! I'm like this because you convinced me that I was a good artist, and I bought that from you and I believe it, not only that, but I have gotten better over the months. And then, when I'm back to posting some stuff I don't get the reception that I expect. Yes, I do have expectations. When I was used to get like 25, 30 broohofs and 2 pages of comments, now I get like 8 brohoofs, and 5 or 6 comments. This seems like nothing, but it does affect me and it upsets me greatly, especially if I make my post look creative and also post one of the best artworks I've ever made. Getting a golden star at the corner of my post because I got roughly 10 brohoofs it's just not enough, I know it sounds selfish. I appear to be upfront and direct when I talk to other users but deep inside I'm fragile, even the things that you wouldn't expect to get me affected, they actually do. And each time I post something on my deviantART, I think, should I post this on MLPforums? before, I posted most of my artworks here, but now, I think about it a lot and end up not doing it, and I feel like I don't want to experience more disapointment, I know I am making look bad the people that commented on my threads, but I want you to understand me as an artist. When you're at the peak, and you see yourself falling down without any advice, you feel bad, sad and vulnerable. So yeah, I won't be updating here my new artworks, if you want to be updated about it, check my deviantART or tumblr, both on my profile.

nice, you should post a picture soon! x3

well what do you expect? Most black people natural hair is curly and I've been raised to cut my hair short since I was a little kid, so you'll never see me with rasta, braids or any fancy or crazy haircut. Just short.

<_< why do you want to see my hair? I don't even care about it.

oh gosh! so devastating

what is your fixation with races, and racism and that sort of stuff? I didn't see anything racist in his post TBH, In fact, I don't see how would you relate, the caucasian part and the racism with his comment saying that he feels that you post fake pictures, anyone here can post fake pictures, white, black or asian. yes, I pay close attention to your posts. Do you believe that only white people are good-looking/attractive/liked? well no, you have self-esteem issues that you have to sort out, it's ok if you feel like this, but it's annoying when you get vocal about it pretty much each time you post in here. judging by this picture alone, by the body, yes, by the face not so much, keep trying until you master the techinique x3 @@repsol rave, you have the best bald shaven head ever Red stop posting repeated photos!

thanks! it was a nice way to practice backgrounds, because I'm lazy and not talented enough when it comes to backgrounds and I have to say this one is pretty good.

haha indeed!! and thanks, In fact I did drew it lol XD because the show always had solid proof and hinted it need more? The most brilliant Gif I've ever seen which leg, there's not angle in this picture and if you mean her right fore hoof, it's exaggerated on purpose (something used a lot in cartoon animations.)

- "alrah' sugarcube, this is wha' yer gonna do...flex yer hooves like this, and you just..." *BUCK!* "kick them leaves outta that tree" ... "ta dah! in a split of a second you will get plenty of apples!" - "Rarity...understood?" - "Applejack, I'm a lady!, how you dare to believe that I would... do such...brute, unflattering and primitive moves for just getting apples! ...there must be other way" - "just like ah thought... why don't ye relax in yer imaginary spa, and let ME handle the hard work? haha" *BUCK* - "so you don't think I am capable of bringing down some apples?..." - "let me think about it for ah moment... nah!" - "Shichisei Senkukyaku!!!" *BOOM!* - "mah tree! you were supposed to buck the apples not the tree!"

absolutely fantastic pencil work the drawing is really cool, show accurate (I know it's from a still image) but what I like the most is the fantastic shading, something the original doesn't have, good job!

this is breath taking omg, it's so beatiful, I'm not a fan of Dr Whooves x Derpy shipping, but these 2 look so beautiful together. What impress me the most is the coloring, you can't see anything from the real colors of their fur, but the reflection of the candle, it's just perfection! perfection I said! please give me your deviantART I must follow you!

desire to have sex with animals is more than enough

actually a good chunk of the people in the fandom is into bestiality ._.

we finally have a new update on the site. The veteran Olimar & Pikmin was confirmed as a returning playable character, I'm honestly not surpised, because he was pretty popular with an inovative gameplay and Pinkim 3 is gonna be released soon as well. Nice addition to the roster! official site: http://www.smashbros.com/us/characters/pikmin.html
