@Apple: Hmm... well, I can't work it up for a while - Between OT at work and my Christmas story, I'm swamped, and after this week I'll be at home on my laptop, which I don't think has Vid Capture - but if you like, I record myself doing and image, maybe help you get an idea of it. I'll go slow and narrate, so you know what I'm doing, of course.

@ keg

That would be fantastic, thank you! Photoshop has overwhelmed me a bit...well...a lot.

Hmm, I wonder if I should continue this.

Here's the thing. I don't have a scanner at the moment, so I can't get good clean pics. This means the filler tool won't work properly, and so I have to resort to pure brush work. Hence the scratchy, sketchy look.

Two alternative ways to accomplish that:

If you're using the tablet to trace over the lines for your outlines, do that on a separate layer from your photographed or scanned sketch. On that layer, select the interior of your outlines, then fill in that selection on yet another separate layer. If your outlines are aliased at all, then "grow" your selection a few pixels before filling in, and make sure the layer for the interior is below the layer for the borders.
There ought to be a way in Photoshop to reduce the color depth to 1-bit. So everything is pure black or pure white. (I know how to do it in GIMP but I've never used Photoshop.) Import your picture much, much bigger than you want the finished image to be; reduce the color depth to 1-bit; clean up any stray pixels; then bump the color depth back up to maximum so you can color it in. Then shrink it down to the desired size (which will eliminate the jagged pixels of your borders that resulted from the conversion to 1-bit.)

If you ask me, the space whale was your magnum opus, honey.

@ Apple: That's good, but Batty's face looks too horizontally-stretched.

But like I've said before, I can't even draw a straight line.

I just found out we've been wrong on Spitfire's first two seasons VA this whole time. Its always been

Kelly Metzger. That's, what, us with the wrong info for 2-3 years?

I feel we should just go through the entire wiki of pony related pages and remove any VA name not listed in the credits and doesn't have a citation straight from the source.

I blame IMDB.

Its not even the first time its happened! We used to think Tabitha St. Germain was Zecora (not a stretch of the imagination, she voices everypony of course) for a long time, along with Ashleigh Ball as Little Strongheart and... whoever did the English dub voice for Sailor Mars as Cheerilee (I distinctly remember the Hey, It's That Voice! list saying "Cheerilee is Sailor Mars!")

So, how many ponies do we have right, then?

Oh, the thread? Don't worry, it's just dead.

#318762 Sydxelia Tue, 18th Dec '12 7:27:54 PM

Are we sure that's the real Kelly Metzger on Twitter? The intertubes have taught me to be skeptical.

But...I'm tired. So no more drawing.

So, saw this. Its one of those Birthday game things. Apparently, I go on a serious investigation with Lyra, my favorite BG pony....and make passionate love to her.

Hmm... my strange experiments with Lyra took us hunting in the Everfree Forest.

Is that what happened to William Lawrenson, who used to be listed as the voice of Pipsqueak?

@ Apple: Goodnight, then.

#318767 Calnos Tue, 18th Dec '12 7:35:15 PM from Nowhere

Its the twitter that's linked on her official website

Here

is her resume... huh, she has Anime!Buttercup (it doesn't specify, had to double check if it was the anime version

I wasn't aware that Pipsqueak's VA had been removed, but since I don't ever recall us ever getting confirmation on who voiced him (could have been Tabitha for all we know) it was probably a good call on whoever removed it.

EDIT: Edits, edits everywhere!

So according to that birthday thing, I would work very hard with Twilight Sparkle and become Mayor of Ponyville because of that.

Speaking of Pipsqueak, isn't he a pinto pony?

Yeah, Andromeda is heading for you. You got over 9000 years until it collides.

According to that particular birthday game I'd study under Luna, which would end in us becoming outlaws.

Birthday games always screw me over. The CMC and Cadance show up disturbingly often.

I'm surprised, I hadn't even heard of Tabitha before this show but apparently she's voiced next to everyone since the late eighties.

She could be voicing me for all I know!

So Spitfire is just an erratic case of Vocal Evolution then?

#318774 Sydxelia Tue, 18th Dec '12 7:53:20 PM

I just automatically assumed Tabitha was voicing the Olden Pony in Sleepless in Ponyville. This time, I was right.

But really, all she wanted was her rusty horseshoe.

Ah ha! Matt Hill for Soarin'! Did we ever confirm this? Not that I don't doubt Soarin' is voiced by Ed, but hey we were wrong on the other Wonderbolt...

What about Gilda herself? How do we know Maryke Hendrikse voices her or does she really sound exactly like Revy? (I've never watched Black Lagoon, but I keep seeing Gilda compared to her)
