For a night set the third one could be...Owlowiscious?

I'd imagine the third placement would go to Pip. He's probably the only pony to have talked to Luna and tasted her mane
Yeah, Andromeda is heading for you. You got over 9000 years until it collides.

Finished my drawing prompt for today!

@Sereg: You might want to try using a sharp-edged brush; because when you fill the colors in they tend to clip along any edges. You also might want to use a reference or something, because I'm not gonna lie, some of the ponies are pretty off model. Although that might just be due to attempting to draw with a mouse, which is nigh impossible.

Welp, that was part uncanny valley and part "hey, that's almost okay".

A little bit, but when I played against Colin, I've got quiet a bit to learn.

was it anything like this?

You're showing improvement, JT. smile

What are you looking at?

@JT and Sereg: This is probably pretty obvious, but a drawing tablet works wonders for digital art. And they have relatively inexpensive models out there.

And yeah, I still use a reference for all my pony art. I've said it before, but hit up eqd and search for 'pony drawing guides'.

I ended up missing a few days of the NATG, and by the time I could get back into it, the prompts were already way too complex for me. Now they all require multiple ponies in odd poses with props, and it takes me all night to draw one pony in a somewhat average pose. No way I can do this now without those intermediate steps to get me there. sad

It's all just practice really.

Amusingly on the merch front, the Petit Nendroid minifigs are about on-scale with the blindbag ponies :D

@Bliss: Amusing. Also, pretty much, though I can't trick him when I try to cheat.

well anyway, I read The Logical Option. I have to admit, I had my suspicions early on that it was a ponynized human in equestria fic, but I didn't expect it to be quite like that. Also, Celestia was just a bit to tyrantish for my taste.

Oh, and FlutterMac.

@Mousa: What is that in reference to?

@Syd: Thanks. tongue

@Ed: I'm actually considering getting an el cheapo tablet, but given my limited income I'll probably wait until I've got the basics down before I spring for one. I don't dedicate enough time to drawing for it to be worth it at the moment.

@Perpetual: Most of them aren't too bad if you get inventive about how you interpret the prompt. So far everything I've done has basically been "find vector of character and modify slightly". They really aren't picky about how close to the prompt you are.

@JT: A cheapo Genius Tablet springs for around US$40 or less depending on the model.

I'm tempted to pose Sayaka with my ponies :D It would just the thing to keep her spirits up [lol]

I'm aware. Like I said, I'm currently a bit strapped for spending money given that I just had to have a headlight on my car replaced and in a week or two I'll probably have to drop a few hundred on textbooks. So I think I'll stick to dead trees for now and if I'm still into it when Christmas rolls around I'll use my extra cash for that.

That and I'd have to learn how a tablet works. Do you need special software, or could I just use it in like GIMP or something?

Your house will be 10% floorspace and 90% ponies at this rate, Ace.

I think the only thing that currently out numbers the ponies in my room is my Yoda collection.

It's not that I couldn't do the prompts. It would just take me way more hours than it's worth at this point. I missed the chance to get eased into it.

Pretty much everything outnumbers ponies in my room right now.

Because I don't have any ponies.

The extent of my poni merch consists of five Mickey D's toys (RD, AJ, Pinkie, Cheerilee, and that Fluttershy recolor) and a generic Brony shirt.

I guess I know what I'm spending my birthday money on...
