Smile-shot Icons (OCs and canon stallions)

[BuizelCream 100]

I thought it would a be fun thing experimenting on faces and expressions and stuff, so I made a batch of smile shots for two of my OCs, and two canon characters. I chose them because, aside that I included my OCs, those two stallions are one of my most favorites, even though they're just background characters.   

 

Yeah, it was loads of fun doing these, as well as spending lots of effort on trying to maintain the quality I wanted for these icons. I wanted to make more, but these took me like a week to finish just four, and I had to move onto newer projects eventually. However if you're interested, in my Deviantart account (www.buizelcream.deviantart.com) I will be opening pony commissions, and these icons will be available to choose for commissions, either you want me to draw your OC or somepony from the canon series.

 

So anyways, I hope you enjoyed what I made so far, and probably I'll be making more soon.   You can only probably recognize Thunderlane from the entire four, but still, I hope you like the rest.

loving the dynamic lighting going on in these pictures. It really gives a three dimensional quality you don't really get in the show.

I honestly needed to get used to these shadings still, because they're really tough to handle, but I'm really glad you said that though
