OC Portrait


MelancholicMemory

Recommended Posts

So I drew a sort of portrait of one of my OCs, Moonbeam, with a border made out of various poems (and one song) because poetry is her talent. With my terrible handwriting, the calligraphy was actually the hardest part :P

What do you think?

I agree with Dj. The calligraphy gives a great touch with the character, as well the portrait itself. The overall features are nicely done! Also I see that the last line (or center? :huh: ) in in the writing is the opening words to Across The Universe... The Beatles! A poetic song indeed! :P

Thanks! And yeah, I developed her dreamy, mellow personality from listening to Across the Universe so I felt like I should pay tribute to the song (not that I ever need a reason to bring up The Beatles :P)

I get the feeling that she's a solitary mare who prefers lying outside under at night with a heavy-lidded expression, preferring to finish the rest of her poetry by moonlight quietly instead of going downtown with her friends where there's no sleep. Trying to... capture the beauty and loneliness of independence in darkness.

 

And I'm looking WAY too into this, aren't I? :blink: Hehe, my bad...

Wow...

Can you read my mind? :blink: That is actually really accurate. There's more to her character, such as the fact that she's nocturnal, but you really hit the nail on the head :o

Really...? Heh, what can I say? I love trying to self-interpret OC's personalities from what I can gather from the creator, though it's not always best to do that since going too deep can rub some the wrong way at times. :) I'd love to see your other OC's in this style as well!
