request Advice/Opinion on my OC

[LordSwinton 759]

I made an OC and I just wanted some advice and opinions. Any and all are welcome. I can't draw at all so I hope nobody minds that I used pony creator. I do have a hand drawn picture of him if needed

 

[Edit] He needs a name. I've been using a placeholder for months

He looks nice,but is his head suppose to be that big?

 

Is he a filly or???

 

I honestly can't tell(sorry) 

[LordSwinton 759]

Yes he's a filly. Can't do much about the head sigh. I honestly wish I could draw sometimes. Thanks for the reply

Oh ok,i couldn't tell.

 

As far as the head,we can pretend he just has a big brain.

Well considering baby's heads are large for their body, it fits.

 

I just have one question, what's with the pupil-less/solid color eyes?

[LordSwinton 759]

Haha, that would make a good excuse  sense. Thanks 

He did have a black part in his eye but I went horribly with his dark coat. Maybe he needs a colour tweek?

You could always make him a slightly less dark grey if you want,i think he deserves pupils unless that's how you prefer him

My only issue with it is that pupils are almost exclusively black in all living things. I have OCD issues when it comes to RP elements though, so feel free to ignore me. Also being an artist for all my life, things just stand out and nag at me more than others I think.

 

But yes, you could lighten the grey coat some. That might lead to needing to darken the outline to bring it all together.

[LordSwinton 759]

I'll see what I can do. I bet he'll look better afterwards. Thank you! So relieved to get some feedback. All my classmates think he's evil

(pony head to body ratios always throw me off when it comes to fillies)

A lightening on his coat would work, as would a little darkening of his outer lines. Other than that it looks pretty good.

[Puddlejumper 1,648]

Big heads are a-okay for fillies. 

[M'aiq the Liar 5,804]

Big heads are a-okay for fillies. 

Yea, even if they are ok, it still just looks off man

[LordSwinton 759]

Is this better?

 

Too light?

[Pinkamena-Pills 6,839]

Too light?

Much better now,he will have great vision 

[LordSwinton 759]

Anything else I should do?

[Pinkamena-Pills 6,839]

Not much else you can do,unless you fancy accessories. 

[LordSwinton 759]

Thanks

[Puddlejumper 1,648]

Yup, looks great. Comparing him to the original image, I think he looks more "natural" now. 

[LordSwinton 759]

Thank you
