New Style Sketches

[Drahgoon 152]

Hey everyone! These are quick sketches that I made for a few reasons.

 

One: to draw without a sketch layer. I usually draw with circles and lines for skeletons. These were done without a sketch and all done on one layer.

 

Two: Trying more natural expressions.

 

Three: Get rid of the Yoshi-sized noses that my previous drawings had.

 

Four: Fuzz. I wanted to try drawing tufts of fur on my ponies but they didn't look good with how round my ponies were before.

 

I REALLY like how they look now. Any critiques and opinions are appreciated!

Thanks! I'll color them in sometime. Glad someone likes the style. I'll draw some more when I get inspiration to draw something.

The only critique I would give is that the tufts of fur should be lower where it curves into their chest. This is where the fur would naturally stick out. Other than that I really like these. Keep up the good work.

Yeah, I thought they looked odd. I'll keep that in mind! I kind of just threw the fur on last minute because I thought it would look a little better.

My favourite from these is dat Twilley one. And that fur is gewd too.

 

I personally never tried to make ponies with fur, but it's high time to try it out. They actually look awesome!

Hmmm... Must try!

I would highly encourage trying out new styles every once in awhile. It's good to break away and go outside comfort zones every once in awhile. 

 

Update: I've colored and shaded the sketches. I tried to mix in blurred shading for rounded edges and hard shading for sharp shadows. I still really need to work on shading, but I'll get it with enough practice.

DAT FUR. I'm loving this new style, the eyes are great and for some reason they look more 3D like this.   Keep making your great art, Drahgs!
