Silverwisp the Bard 2,353 June 20, 2012 Share June 20, 2012 (edited) Attention! There are about two hundred pictures throughout the thread, if you got the time, please check out some of the latter pages. Any critique/feedback is welcome. Click here for the aforementioned dump of armoured ponies. Here some of the highlights: Twilight's hot new hat My 40k ponies Rainbow Khan Slaaneshi Rarity Earth Pony Knights The fanciest helmet in the fandom (or your money back) This is bat(pony) country Ponified Guts Falconer Pony This is Nightmare Night... So, since I've realized, that I haven't really done anything in this section of the boards except showing of my putty skills and criticizing others, I've decided it's time to give back to the community. So, here's my OCQuick bio: Wandering singer, lived about 300 years prior to the events of FiM, creator of such poetic wonders as The Bear and the Mare so fair and A Unicorn's horn has a knob on the end (first one to get both plagarisms references, gets a request)I'll probably colour it with Photoshop later, once I'm done correcting.Criticism most definitely welcome.PS: Can anyone think of a musical pet?I've settled on magpies, thank you all for your suggestions.Update: Edited June 13, 2015 by Silverwisp the Bard 46 My Art Thread, updated (almost) daily Tomorrow will take us away, far from home No one will ever know our names But the bard songs will remain.

Vicke 3,188 June 20, 2012 Share June 20, 2012 Aha! Awesome! Probably one of the best i've seen here on this forum! Musical pet? A squid! Just look at Squidward. 4 Signature made by Kyoshi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

letterone 1,204 June 20, 2012 Share June 20, 2012 Dat's nice. A musical pet, eh? How 'bout a bird? Whistly whistle! 2 It's ironic how I fall just to get back up again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfinityWhale 771 June 20, 2012 Share June 20, 2012 Your form is very good, and the pose is realistic and not muscle-contorting. However, it is VERY rough, and there are tons of stray lines and what not, which obscures the picture. I would highly suggest coloring it with photoshop, and cleaning it up. And it might jsut be me, but I think the horn is somewhat stubby and awkward, at least compared to the rest of the work. In general though, it is very good, and the hair and scarf in particular are well done. As for a musical pet, I think that a bird would probably be best. 1 Frayed Logic | Wits End | Light Eye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FortyShadows 217 June 20, 2012 Share June 20, 2012 ^agreed with bird. The rough lines are like my style, so I'm not gonna complain! It looks really amazing; all of the proportions seem correct to me. (*gets jealous, just kidding) Hope you actually draw more somethings! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 891 June 20, 2012 Share June 20, 2012 Nice drawing, as Whale said above me it's still a rough sketch so your next step will be to clean it up and colour it. And for a pet a bird would make sense, as they're rather symbolic in that way. And if you don't want a bird go for a squirrel. 1 I'd like to thank the MLP Vector Club for the images used in my avatar.

Swit Swat 536 June 20, 2012 Share June 20, 2012 That's a very nice drawing! I like your style. Musical pet huh? How about a whale? Those guys have LOADS of musical talent! Don Mec.

Silverwisp the Bard 2,353 June 25, 2012 Author Share June 25, 2012 . However, it is VERY rough, and there are tons of stray lines and what not, which obscures the picture.... I usually just use the scan as a template to paint over, so stray lines are no problem (that and I'm lazy)Good call on the horn though, needs looking into. Bird is also nice, I used to think, a Phoenix, but now that Spike got one, I wanted something different. Maybe a magpie that collects money fromn bystanders... Update: Shortened the left hindleg a bit and fixed horn. Vectoring is mostly done (still working on cutiemark and magpie) tail needs fixing, but right now I'm too tired. Can't exactly say why, but I don't really like the colours.

Krystal 1,468 June 25, 2012 Share June 25, 2012 Wow that's awesome what with the magic and the stitches in the hat and the harp and everything!

Silverwisp the Bard 2,353 June 25, 2012 Author Share June 25, 2012 (edited) ...a ferret just because ferrets are awesome That is a valid point, however I've already drawn up a magpie. (more vectoring ) Also I saw a pic somewhere on this board (can't remember where), of Spike and Rarity having pony-dragon hybrid/Kirin-ish daughter, so I decided to shamelessly copy the idea (I'll give credit as soon as I've found out the original artist). Still needs name and cutiemark (her talent being gemcutting) Edited December 14, 2012 by Silverwisp the Bard 4 My Art Thread, updated (almost) daily Tomorrow will take us away, far from home No one will ever know our names But the bard songs will remain.

Needs some shadows and/or shading, but that's about it. The horn looks a lot better. Maybe make him look a little bit more unkempt to match the hat and the scarf. 1 Frayed Logic | Wits End | Light Eye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverwisp the Bard 2,353 July 1, 2012 Author Share July 1, 2012 Everything done but the birdie: Fixed the tail and added the lyra (it's actually supposed to look a bit crooked) Tried to do some shading but got frustrated really fast 3 My Art Thread, updated (almost) daily Tomorrow will take us away, far from home No one will ever know our names But the bard songs will remain.

Silverwisp the Bard 2,353 July 5, 2012 Author Share July 5, 2012 Finally found a coloursheme I like for my little dragonspawn OC: Changed her talent/cutiemark to glassblowing and did some tweaking on the "hooves". Still can't think of a name though; first one to post one I like gets a request. Idea for the doing a kirin-pony somewhat stolen from inspired by this: http://ive-moved-bit...et=144#/d4aub01, but mostly by this:http://www.tomsmithonline.com/lyrics/dragons_lullaby.htm 5 My Art Thread, updated (almost) daily Tomorrow will take us away, far from home No one will ever know our names But the bard songs will remain.

Viridian Daybreak 66 July 6, 2012 Share July 6, 2012 I love it! And I think a good musical pet would be a phoenix. I think I read once on Wikipedia that their cries are that of a song. Also a phoenix's coloring goes well with your OC's coloring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dj Manjaro 393 July 6, 2012 Share July 6, 2012 I actually like the sketch more than the colored version... but that probably has to do with the fact that I love the look of rough sketches. 1 I Nitpick Because I Care Ask Brainy Twilight - My art blog - My Music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazardus_Havard. 479 July 12, 2012 Share July 12, 2012 Next up a concept for grown up Spike for future works: Any thoughts critism is wecome. I would recommend using the dragon image that looks like it's crawling. That image really stands out the most. And your edited pic in the first post, as it is colored, seems to be missing a cutie mark and the lyra. Practice makes perfect; but if nobody's perfect, why practice? http://hazardus-havard.deviantart.com/ Art http://www.fimfiction.net/story/70801/an-alien-walks-amongst-us Story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nouth 496 August 28, 2012 Share August 28, 2012 (edited) So, since I've realised, that I haven't really done anything in this section of the boards except showing of my putty skills and criticizing others, I've decided it's time to give back to the community. So, here's my OC Quick bio: Wandering singer, lived about 300 years prior to the events of FiM, creator of such poetic wonders as The Bear and the Mare so fair and A Unicorn's horn has a knob on the end (first one to get both plagarisms references, gets a request) Update: The Bear and Mare (Bear and Maiden ?) sounds like something my friend who watches The Game of Thrones has mentioned once, though I do not know much more about it. Would have to google it. And the Wizard's staff has a knob on the end is every discworldian's must-know Great drawing man. Looks really amazing.
