Who wants to make me into a pony?

[SongBrony 419]

I am the new Senior Patrol Leader in my Boy Scout troop. In our troop we have patrol flags and I feel like the SPL should be allowed to have his own flag. It doesn't need to be drawn, it can be computer generated for all I care. I would like it to be me ponyfied. The only specifications I will make are that I need to have shades on and a Mountain Dew next to me. I would like to be in a scout uniform, but that may be too hard to do in pony form, so it isn't necessary. I would like to have it by this weekend, since we have a campout, but I understand that it may be too hard to do by then so whenever you have it done is good with me

 

 

This is me. I'm interested in what you guys are willing to do. Sadly, I am unable to pay you But if you want, I can put your OC in one of my fanfics. You will receive credit for everything.

 

Thanks I really appreciate it.

Hmmmm.... HMMMMM... This is a tempting challenge indeed... Do you have an idea of how a ponyfied version of yourself would look like? And what would be your CM? How would your physique be like? Big Macintosh-size, or Braeburn?

 

Out from your face, I've pretty much figured out the head (and maybe mane/tail-colour), but what would you like as a colour for the fur? Any of these would speed up the process... And if you already have a decent OC-creator-image, then I might be able to get it done by maybe today or tomorrow... I'm a bit slow! Can't promise anything though.

 

Here's most of the stuff I've done if you want to know what you might expect...

Me Gusta your art. I'm definitely a Braeburn size. I like Blue, the blue on my avatar, for the fur and the CM should be the Life Scout Logo. Like I said if you can put him in a scout uniform that would be nice, but if you can't it's no problem. I'm not a picky chooser. Take your time. It doesn't have to be done by this weekend so if you can't by then, I understand.

*Facehoof* I thought you were joking when you said that at the meeting.

 

We'll, good luck with this

 

 

PS, songbrony doesn't have a mustache anymore. Plus he got a buzz cut :-P

Nope I was serious. and the hair isn't a buzz cut anymore. It's grown out a bit! Besided, I don't care if they think I'm weird, I want an SPL flag

I'll see what I can do... Is there like a specific uniform you want? Maybe link to an image of it? Even though two of my closest friends are scouts, I have no idea if there's like a universal one or if they differ a lot...

Also I'm not all that big on clothes, but I'll do my best and send you one with and one without the uniform (if I can make it, but it'll be good experience to at least try!)

 

Also (again) do you want it shaded, or more canon (minimal shading)?

 

EDIT: Is this the logo you meant?

And now I'm ready to begin the actual drawing (after collecting references here and there and scaling them)

Here's a picture of the uniform.

 

 

This is the Life Scout Rank.

 

 

Don't worry about being detailed, just as long as people can see the rank (Which doesn't need to be detailed either, just a heart with the basic design in it. That's it. If you have difficulty, you can scratch the Life Rank. I would like some shading which I know takes some time. So don't rush yourself. Thanks again! Can't wait to see it!

Just wanted to update you on my progress... The major parts of the outlining is done, only the tail, CM and that bottle of... Mountain Dew... Is left. Then there will be colours (which is usually the quickest part of it all) and then shades (which also doesn't take too long...) I think I'll be done tomorrow, which would be too late for the thing this weekend if I'm right? Anyways, it's gettin' done, that's what counts I guess!

 

Another update: A non-shaded version (with no uniform) is done!

Here it is... First thing I'll do now is shade it, then make one with the uniform (if I can manage that...)

And here's the shaded one...

 

I hope it's good enough!

Both are amazing! You did a really good job on these. I really appreciate it You are an excellent artist. Keep up the great work!

This is why I can keep up drawing: Making people happy~ Really glad you liked it!As for the uniform, I will try to add one in the near future... Everything from tomorrow to the beginning of October (I think).Anyways, I'm not all that big on clothes and accessories, but it will be great practice! (Truth: I've never drawn clothes before)

 

Random minor fact that you might've missed: The mane and tail aren't completely black... They are tilting slightly over on the red pallet (they are dark-dark-black-red if you get what I mean). Originally I thought of having it that way - but blue, but then the entire thing got a slightly blue feeling (as in sad-ish), so I made it a *tiny* bit red to fire up the mood slightly~

 

Also: I uploaded this on my dA (but since you watch me n' stuff, you probably noticed - now or later)... I hope you're ok with that!

I'm fine with it. I have huge respect for people who can draw well. Nothing I make turns out well. Clothes are probably harder to draw on ponies, given the fact that they have four legs, but it should be a fun experience

 

*Edit: So I can add you into my story if you want. I'm actually in need of a character for where I am at. So if you are interested, tell me, and I'll get him in there and I'll add some of your artwork in (Advertising so to speak.)

[FINALLY I HAVE INTERNET AGAIN!]

 

Oh, right... That fic-thing... Had for gotten about that...

 

I was thinking of giving you Night Cloud for that, but since his backstory and traits seems a bit messy/OP right now, so I think I'd rather have my ponysona in there... This is the only artwork of him right now (I didn't really draw it, I used a template/base and coloured it a drew on the mane, tail and CM) I'll make a page for him later so you have an idea of what he's like n' stuff~

That is if you're fine with it, of course!

As for using my artwork... Do you mean my stuff in general, or of him? I'm on making one of a full-sized version of him soon...

It's fine. I just need to know the backstory and personality before I write him in. And your artwork in general. I'll have it 'hanging' in Canterlot. I may put one of your art for your OC once I place him in the story.

I added a page for him here... I hope I didn't overdo it, as I tend to get carried away and write WAY more than I planned in the beginning... Though this just means more details~

 

And I'm kind of interested in how my art would 'hang' in Canterlot in a fic... Is it a visual fic or something? Or will they be described in text?

Also: Since the OC/ponysona I linked to you practically is me in pony-form... If the artwork is supposed to be recently made, then why not say he made them?

And one last thing: If you look at his page, you'll see at the top of the 'Other'-section that I'm thinking of a pony-name... Do you think North Light is a good name?

It'll be shown. I changed the whole hanging in Canterlot thing. It's going to be shown to the main character (like actually shown to the readers too) when he visits a place that is important. (Don't want to give too many details since it's a huge part of the story) I plan on saying he did make them, but I'll give you all the credit for it in the credit section of the story. I'll link your Deviantart account there. North Light is a good name. It goes with his picture. I can make the drawings be things he has drawn to "document" (Only word I can think of) the other ponies he is at. His personality fits in perfectly too for this part.

Awesome! I'm really excited now! Meanwhile, I guess I'll work o an actual drawing of him... And maybe the uniform for the drawing I made you...

And since the name mostly used for him is Zhooves (his nick/artist-name) I'll get credit anyways I guess~
