Sheogorath 1,155 July 11, 2013 Share July 11, 2013 Ah, good old Bonbon, always sitting funny and going on about hooves and ponies. What ever is the root of her obsession may remain forever a mystery. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbblender 122 July 11, 2013 Share July 11, 2013 (edited) It's very possible that what you're uploading isn't the actual image but a thumbnail. This could explain why your pics are coming up as small as they are. The best thing to do is usually upload your image to a free host such as Deviant Art and simply link it here. I never really did like how IP.Board treats uploads and I just feel better knowing there's an external link available elsewhere. Weeell, I went to DeviantART to go make an account to post pictures, and the front page sort of... I've... It... I'VE BEEN TAINTED AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! IT WAS HORRIBLE! THERE WAS LOTS OF SEXUALLY SUGGESTIVE PICTURES! AND THE WORST PART WAS THE VORE. There was so much vore. Well, I'm making an account now.

D1SC0RD 987 July 13, 2013 Author Share July 13, 2013 Heads up everyone!!!! I can't make bold text on an iPad so I hope this post doesn't get scrolled over. My laptop is busted. I have limited access to online devices right now, and the fact that I can't bold text on here should tell you that I am even more crippled. I am unsure that I will be able to keep this thread rolling smoothly. Luckily! We have the lovely Accellerant who is willing to help me out. Keep an eye out for him because he may be the one to post new images and runs the show while I'm gone. I'll try to put any images in my first post, but we'll see how that goes. Anyway, I'll be getting a new laptop in 1-2 months. For now, I'll go edit the first post and say all this stuff there (though I can't edit the text to make my message more visible... Boo). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's Rarity and Pinkie: 2013-07-13 22.33.17.jpg Kinda happy with this after all. Some proportions are off though as usual. Also, my drawing paper gets messy, I need a better eraser. I recommend what they call a 'kneadable' eraser. It can actually pull the pencil of the paper by pressing it against the paper rather than rubbing it (although it can do that too), so you don't end up with all the detritus, or wearing away the paper quite as fast. They're soft (kneadable), so you can smoosh it to get rid of the graphite on the bit you're using. That way you're not just smearing the graphite all over the page. They're usually a strange grey package near the art pencils that you may not recognize as an eraser unless you read the package. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarligPegasi 315 July 14, 2013 Share July 14, 2013 Whoot, so I finally drew it! And Bon Bon's tail looks like the worst thing since Xbox one's first concept.

Thunderstorm 120 July 14, 2013 Share July 14, 2013 I won't be drawing this one, sorry guys :/ my iPod's dead and I can't get ahold of a charger for the next week, and I have no other way of getting the image...

Thrashy 2,800 July 15, 2013 Share July 15, 2013 Fart. I honestly wanted to rip out the side of the page with Bonbon. Nothing about her looks right to me except for the mane/tail, as usual. Biggest goof is that somehow their heads ended up being much farther apart than in the original. No idea how that happened, but there you go. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest July 16, 2013 Share July 16, 2013 Well, I'm on holydays, with almost no drawing supplies or desk, and only tiny pieces of note paper, and an awfully SLOW WiFi (this was a pain to upload and post) Warning : Bad image quality and bad drawing.

D1SC0RD 987 July 17, 2013 Author Share July 17, 2013 (edited) ...Two days late. Sorry guys. Here's my sketch (in my opinion, my worst one yet).

Fhaolan 4,507 July 17, 2013 Share July 17, 2013 For some reason I had to draw this *smaller* than normal, when I know I need to start drawing bigger. Weird. It's almost like my mind has stuck on a setting where ponies are drawn a certain size, and because these are fillies, I have to draw them smaller to be in scale. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleshsong 33 July 21, 2013 Share July 21, 2013 It took me so damn long to draw these (many hours for each). I'd better switch to paper to sketch ponies at much faster rate. Wings of Rarity - I got bored. Same with the bench. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrumpy 159 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 (edited) Worst attempt ever, I dunno whats wrong with me, I'm having a lazy day today, and it's like my brain fried. I had to leave it as a sketch because I've now got my 3rd migraine of the day. Now I', gonna lay down. Anywhooo without further ado: Edited July 22, 2013 by Scrumpy 4 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: Scrumpy is cider made in the West Country of England,[1] particularly a band through Devon, Somerset, Gloucestershire and Herefordshire, though it may also be found in Kent, Sussex and East Anglia. The term is especially used to distinguish those made locally in smaller quantities and using traditional methods from mass-produced branded ciders.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX 777 July 26, 2013 Share July 26, 2013 (edited) Good day my fellow Drawfriends and welcome to the limited edition of "Lets Learn to Draw Ponies - Accellerant Edition!" I'm not going to lie, this first post is going to be text intensive so if you want you can skip to the next assignment by searching for the keywords Sketch of the Week. As most of you are aware, @D1SC0RD is still currently dealing with their computer exploding and I'm going to fill in while they're away. Now normally the plan is to draw an image @D1SC0RD has posted and to follow up by submitting our results. I plan to continue this practice but I'm also going to include additional options for you to choose from. You may be thinking something along the lines of, "Accellerant, have you gone mad with power?!" Well, yes, but I also want to try a few things out and see if they work out for better or worse. I also noticed that not many participated in the last theme which is why I want to try a few things out. Besides, think of it this way, I won't be at the helm forever and I'm sure @D1SC0RD will be back before we know it So what will these 'options' be exactly? I plan to give an average of three options per week. Your available options will be as followed: Sketch of the Week, Theme of the Week, Previous Practices and Extra Credit! You do not have to do all of these. Please, please, please, PLEASE only do what you're comfortable with! Sketch of the Week is what we always do, we sketch out the image of the week and post when finished. Theme of the Week will be the toughest, there will be NO reference images and will require you to rely on your noggin and collective experience. This is the toughest but richest experience. Extra Credit! is an extra addition to your weekly Sketch. The image can be something related to the current week or it can be completely random. It can be something we've tackled before or it can be an entirely new subject. Whatever the case, it's all about getting that extra mile in. Alright, I've put in my ranting, lets get to drawing! Next Image Posting - August 4th Remember: Choose whichever one you'll enjoy the most, have fun with it and don't stress out Sketch of the Week: The Cutie Mark Crusaders! We haven't drawn too many fillies as of yet so it'd be good to get them down before we explore other body types. It's not that hard if you think about it, they're just a smaller variant of mares. But what happens when you bring both filly and mare into the same picture?! DUN~DUN~DUUUUUUUUUUN!!! Before we continue I must mention that YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DRAW APPLEJACK!!! The primary focus is on the CMC and Babs. The reason why I selected an image with AJ in the picture is so you can make some comparisons between how different AJ's body is in comparison to the CMC. There's other reasons why I chose this image as well (besides laziness) but I'll keep those to myself ;p Theme of the Week: A Pony Cooling Off Man, I'm not sure about you but it's been getting hot around these parts. So why not try to take our minds off the heat and draw a pony cooling off? It can be a pony taking a dip at the pool, resting in the shade or even chugging down a giant slurpee. Or perchance somepony's really angry and just needs to chill out after a heated argument. Draw whatever comes to mind! Extra Credit!: Zecora the Balancing Zebra Ya know, there's something about Zecora and her Zebraness that just makes me want to eat a giant pot of gumbo. That being said I've never really seen this stance being reused within the show. So, lets put two and two together and draw Zecora balancing on her stick (of doom!) I lied, this is the last tidbit then I'm going to bed. I'll be blunt, I want your feedback for how I'm doing things around these parts. Also, if you feel as though your struggling or ya need some help, I implore you to ask away. I'm not a pro at drawing but I'll do what I can to help ya out and I'm sure other users would be glad to assist you as well!

Thrashy 2,800 July 26, 2013 Share July 26, 2013 (edited) Theme of the week? Turning us loose to do our own thing so soon, @Accellerant? For some of us, that'll be like giving super-soakers to a bunch kids on the worst of sugar highs. I'll give the theme pic and the CMC pic a shot right after I start on the TwilyXCadance pic I've yet to begin...that can count as my own extra credit, I suppose. EDIT: Alright, so here's the much delayed pic: Other than Twi looking terribly faded, and me not having the foresight to question whether I'd have enough room for Cadance's tail, I think it turned out pretty decent.
