The Soldier 2,044 September 14, 2012 Share September 14, 2012 (edited) OK! Done! Finally... It's over. Anyway, this is my very first OC. His name is Dark Roast. He's a coffee addict (Hey! Like me!) That thing over his eye is sorta like this: Speaking of which, I think I should make an upgraded version of it... anyways...

MachineDriven 17 September 15, 2012 Share September 15, 2012 I especially like the glasses! What's your favourite type of coffee? I personally prefer Kicking Horse, (I grind my own) dark and course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally prefer Kicking Horse, (I grind my own) dark and course. I I guess you can say it's a computer/ techno styled monocule ( those one sided glasses) more than just glasses ( don't know any other easy way to say it...). But i like dark and bitter coffee itself." Darker than a moonless midnight, hotter and more bitter than hell itself, that is coffee" -Godot Thanks for the feedback Edited September 16, 2012 by CoffeeAddictedPony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLP Nick 8 September 16, 2012 Share September 16, 2012 I really like his glasses but may i ask what is his cutie mark suppose to be i know its a mug but why is it a mug just something i need to know about the character Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Soul 2,613 September 16, 2012 Share September 16, 2012 Not bad, not bad at all... The shading isn't very complete looking, but it is a nice OC... So I think you did an ok job on it. I also really like the glasses... Soundcloud-------------------Facebook---------------------------Youtube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, yeah. I just made it cuz of coffee and all. I saw DerpyMuffins already use a coffee bean as a cutie mark for HIS OC, Jitter Bean. So I can't think of any other thing but a coffee mug. Any other coffee relevant stuff though that you know? Just asking... thanks for the feedback Not bad, not bad at all... The shading isn't very complete looking, but it is a nice OC... So I think you did an ok job on it. I also really like the glasses... Thank you for the feedback. Now that you pointed it out, i think i did miss out some parts that needed to be shaded...And it seems the techno monocle is what seems to give attention right now. Posted 8:44 PM 9-16-12 I'm going to try something I think nopony has ever done before... What I learned in posting school is...

Dimitri Hammer 3,645 September 17, 2012 Share September 17, 2012 Well just like everyone else. I love the glasses! Very fine job Comrade! I love artists, I love all art!

Creamy Arty 6,252 September 17, 2012 Share September 17, 2012 If I had any artistic ability, my OC would be "Dark Brew." It's something I've actually thought about for a long time. Glad to see somebody out there essentially had the same idea and brought him to life in some form. We even have the same preferences when it comes to our coffee: dark and bitter. Maybe I'll start practicing until I can draw what I originally had in mind. You may have inspired me. I love you.

Haven Celestii 9,385 September 17, 2012 Share September 17, 2012 It doesn't look too bad! I do like the color scheme of him as well! From the way he looks, he looks like an important pony of sorts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xero1 124 September 18, 2012 Share September 18, 2012 mmm i've wanted to make an OC for a while. still haven't gotten around to it. if you're up for critique here I go. if not ignore this post. The transition between the neck and body could be smoothed out with a nice curve rather than a straight edge the pegasus wing should be a bit longer and start closer to the front of the body. some curves in the mane and face wouldn't be a bad idea either as it stands he looks as thin as a razor almost no demontionality. you've got a solid idea down and its one that I like you really should flesh this guy out a little more. maybe make him jittery from too much coffee or something like that. Check out my Art threads everypony http://mlpforums.com...tor-art-thread/ and http://mlpforums.com/topic/35635-01s-traditional-art/#entry847552 I love getting critiques and such. Check back at my threads often for art will continually be updated on the first post of all my threads. ummm other than that... hmmm. MUFFINS FOR ALL!

Flaret 240 September 18, 2012 Share September 18, 2012 I really like the glasses and his special thing with the coffee. His colours are very nice, too! Though I do think the pose looks a bit stiff, probably because you used a lot of straight lines. You can always practice on that, though, he looks very good for a first oc!

Right now, I'm learning about drawing ponies. I've got shading and coloring down already. Once I'm done with that, I'm going to poses. Then vectoring. ( If photoshop has it)Coffee is like adventure: THEY START OUT as a SMALL coffee bean. poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo poyo (lol thanks for the translation you gave me! ) (And yea!

With the coffee mug, it's almost like a busy colt, alright. But the techno monocle makes him look like some techno dude. Think of that Dragonball Z scouter without using it for help to take over the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flaret 240 September 18, 2012 Share September 18, 2012 I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work, then ^^ I think photoshop has vectoring (pen tool), but I've heard that illustrator works a lot better for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already own Photoshop (In fact that's what I used to create this.) Illustrator is an adobe program too, so it's not free, but hey... http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&NR=1&v=6-IrO8Dwr5c *phew* Was I glad that I saw that seizure warning in time. Naw. Just kidding. Wow. theres a lot of coffee OCs out there. :3 Good Job I like how you did the glasses and the shading! If my Photoshop trial hadn't expired, I would make my OC have a nose bleed over your signature... Naw. That'd make him suffer.

Xero1 124 September 21, 2012 Share September 21, 2012 (edited) if you are looking for a free vectoring program try inkscape. it is a bit more limited than illustrator but it is absolutly free and the interface isn't bad.
