My drawings for EQD's Artist Training Grounds

[Zhooves 843]

So I though I'd just post the drawings I've made so far for the EQD (Newbie) Artist Training Grounds here, so you can comment and tell me what I can do to improve (if that's necessary at all, which it will).Additional info for each drawing can be found at my dA~ Day 1 - Draw an idle ponyI actually had to look up 'idle' before I could start working on this one...

 

Day 2 - Draw a pony in motion/on the goDerpy~For the first time ever:1. I drew a canon pony.2. I drew wings.3. I made a background.4. I used this pose.5. I used these brushes and preset-things. Loads of new stuff! (And I kind of gusta~)

 

Day 4 - Draw a pony at a hilltop/at the summit (or something along these lines...)

Once again: I drew a canon pony! My favourite BG-pony Lyra! And it might look a bit weird... Still going on with the pencil-on-paper-setting-thing...

 

Day 9 - Dress a pony as a character from your favourite novel/video-game

Final Fantasy XII is one of my favourite games of all time, and the assignment was to dress up a pony as a character from there so... I ponyfied Vaan from the game, and dressed him up as himself~

Also kind of going back to the old style... Whatever that is, seeing as I tend to use slightly different styles every time...

 

I've decided that I won't draw any more for the EQD's NATG unless the assignment is really interesting... Why? I have other things to do at the moment, and school will start soon!

So what do you think so far?

I really think I should take these courses too! While I'm familiar with poses like an idle stance, or motion pose, the fact that they teach you the ropes on a different paint program will prove quite beneficial to me!

 

As far as what do I think thus far. While I personally have never seen any of your art first hand until now. I'd say you've successfully accomplished each of the requisites for composing an art piece. You nailed the Idle rendition with your drawing, and you got the idea good for the motion one as well. Keep up the good work! ;3

Thanks~

I was too busy helping my mother move some stuff today, so I couldn't make one for today... That, and I had to look up what a 'prop' is... I think I got it figured out~

 

Also: They teach us stuff there? I can't seem to find it... I just drew whatever the assignment was...

 

And also: Check my dA to see how much I've devloped the past 2 months I've acutaly been drawing (if you want to~)~

I think they are looking good so far, and I cannot wait to see the rest of them as they come along. You certainly seem to have the basics down for drawing ponies, so keep it up!

Looking very good there, the idle one, in my opinion is incredible and the one in motion is very good too, the nose looks a little off on that one but overall well done :3.

Yeah... For some reason, I didn't notice how big and round her snout was til after I had both submitted and begun on something else...
