PD's Doodles

[Puddle Duck 142]

Welcome to my doodle page. I really enjoy drawing ponies and recently got back into the swing of things. I would like to open this doodle page with my latest and, so far, greatest pony drawing!

Drawn to Lullaby for a Princess by Ponyphonic

....That's some kickass coloring tho. Really well-done, I applaud you sir.

holy turnips 030 that's freaking amazing!!

[Puddle Duck 142]

Thanks so much! It was my first time trying this style and I'm very happy with it. I hope to do more soon.

[Zachary 5,521]

Wow! That is so Amazing! 10/10 would See it Again!

I just realized tomorrow is Saturday and I most likely won't have access to the computer. Since I won't have any new art I decided to share some of my old stuff from 2013.


Introducing my character Hershey. She was originally a dragon with nothing to do with MLP, but I changed her to a pegasus when I got bored. (I'll post a picture of PD another time.)

Wow! That picture is breathtakingly beautiful! Keep up the awesome work! 

[Puddle Duck 142]

Thanks, I'll hopefully have another drawing like the first one by next week. That one only took six hours, but I'll probably be busy this weekend.

[Kenshiro 13,493]

You have a serious talent and the proportion details on your arts are perfect

[Puddle Duck 142]

Thanks. Hopefully I'll have more art to post soon. I have plenty of old stuff, but I have a new one in the works.

[Sphinx-Ara 3,569]

Excellent work there, do you do requests and/or commissions?

[Puddle Duck 142]

Thanks. I don't do requests and I'm not open for commissions right now. I'm coming off of a 3 year cold period so I'm actually relearning everything right now.

You are quite talented. These are all really nice, including the 2013 work. Ponyphonic has some amazing music and this piece catches the essence of lullaby pretty well.

[Puddle Duck 142]

Thanks LoneStar  

Here is some more old art because I still haven't finished anything new.

My husband found an old sketchbook with the first Hershey drawing inside. Apparently I had originally given her a cutie mark. We don't have a scanner so it's unfortunately a bit of a blurry photo.

Here's some more art. I have drawings of Hershey and Apple Swirl in the works, but I seem to have caught something. My motivation is lagging and I just want to sleep.


My very first oc pony, Apple Swirl (no relation to the Apple family). It was Fall and I was eating a lot of apple things.



L from Death Note. I forgot to include him with the Zelda stuff.



An old ad drawing

A new "painting" as promised. I drew this one while listening to the Celtic Woman A Christmas Celebration CD. I don't like it anywhere near as much as my Luna picture, but it's only my second time with this style. I look forward to improving it.

[Puddle Duck 142]

I wanted to do something simple so here's a colored sketch.

[Kiri 7,288]

Keep up the great work, Puddles! 

[Puddle Duck 142]

Will do. I've been trying to draw something daily to get into a proper habit.

[Puddle Duck 142]

Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Finances and housing trouble have kept me away. I'll have a picture of Gerudo Vai Link as a MLP up soon. I'm hoping to have a commission shop open soon as well. Due to the troubles already mentioned we're trying to scrape together $30,000 to get out of a horribly toxic situation. Please commission me when I'm open and/or spread the word if you can. It will be greatly appreciated. I realize I can't possibly draw enough to reach our goal, but this is all I can do to help and every penny counts. 

[Cl0udChaser 3,006]

Awesome job Puddle Duck. Keep it up.

[Lunarpalette 2,175]

Oh my goodness! These are awesome! I love the Twilight Princess one with Wolf Link and Minda! Best one out of these amazing drawings!

Great job so far!
If i can ask, How many layers do you use when you paint?
Personally i find i like to paint the whole image on more or less the same layer
 

[RaphLuna 306]

OMG they are all so Beautiful, its impossible to choose which one is my favourite. I love them all. 

Hugs, keep up the Beautiful Artwork

[Puddle Duck 142]

Oops, I didn't notice you nice folks had replied. Sorry! Thank you for the kind compliments!

It depends on the drawing, but I almost always use at least 5 layers. I have the sketch, ink, flat, shade and highlights. I usually end up with over 20 layers and just as many saves. Lately, I've been merging the sketch layers together and doing the same with the ink so I don't have so much to deal with. I tried doing the one layer thing and found I didn't enjoy it and would get easily frustrated.


Now for my Gerudo Link! I was going to put more details in this one, but my arm cramped up and I decided to call it a night. As always, I shrank it down by over half so it wouldn't swamp the screen. (I draw on a 10" x10" canvas on a smaller laptop.)
