LostPony 30 October 5, 2014 Share October 5, 2014 (edited) I am not a professional by no means, but I do love to draw. All I have to work with is a number two pencil, printing paper, and a twenty four pack of crayola colored pencils. I have a sketch book, if I can find it I will use it instead of printing paper. As I draw more I keep adding them to this post. Edited October 5, 2014 by LostPony 6 A good horse is never a bad color“There’s no such thing as a water landing.

Smokie-Horse 83 October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 With all the Photoshop horses flooding everything, I'd say you win by going with traditional pencils by default. Good job, mate. My personal favourite is Sweetie. 2 "I will pre-emptively ask you to pay no attention to the poorly informed simpleton above." -Smokie-Horse's future self Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spagem 505 October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 With all the Photoshop horses flooding everything, I'd say you win by going with traditional pencils by default. I got to agree here. While I do love digital art ( and actually prefer drawing digitally over traditionally ), it's always nice to see some traditional every once and awhile... especially when there is so much digital pony art out there. Oh, and my favorite is Sweetie. 3cute5me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxx 258 October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 (edited) This is fantastic work! I love traditional art, it has way more substance than something that was drawn on the computer, at least in my opinion. A common thread to perhaps work on here is steadiness of the hand and anatomy. Get that right, and your work will go from great to phenomenal! Stay Foxxy!

LostPony 30 October 6, 2014 Author Share October 6, 2014 (edited) Im starting realize printing paper is not taking the colored pencils well. It a hit or miss if color takes to one spot or not, I end up going over it multiple times. Sweetie Belle was one of my favorite ones to do.

LostPony 30 October 8, 2014 Author Share October 8, 2014 Well did not turn out as good as I hoped it would. I need add color maybe that help some. The color gives it more pop, my friends that seen it in person seem to like it. This image was dun on my sketch paper, yes I indeed found it. I have also realized my desk has slightly textured surface. I need find more flat surface to work on my next pony. 4 A good horse is never a bad color“There’s no such thing as a water landing.

LostPony 30 October 22, 2014 Author Share October 22, 2014 Your drawings are wonderful. Do you have any advice? Only thing I can say is how I started, I started out small on ¼ printing paper, it doesn’t take as long draw them small and it help me get the feeling of how to draw them. Once I felt confident I went to full sheets of sketch paper, Doctor Whooves playing piano was my first full sheet of sketch paper. I’ve drawn cartoon style horses before I started drawing ponies, I enjoy drawing horses, so the best advice I can give you is draw a pony you want to draw. At least for me I put more passion into it when I do and I have more fun drawing them. what camera do you use? or what strategy on taking pictures of them do you use? I use my printer, which has a built in scanner, it a Canon Pixma MG3100. I have used digital camera before but not on any of these. So I do know how to take pictures with digital camera, use to do it that way when I shared cartoon style horses I drew long time ago.
