I don't really consider it a blatant attempt at merchandising because the Toy people completely ignore the show anyway. They'll give RD whatever accessories they want.
It's pronounced "Te-ah-low-ve"

Hm...why are they hyping up this particular episode anyways? Is it because its Rainbow Dash?

@ Rhyme Beat: Kegisak is right though, geometric shapes are very important. Everything is made out of geometric shapes. You can't just "draw" you need to sketch outlines and skeletons, making rough outlines of where every joint and major body part is going to be. Especially circles, when doing ponies circles are very important.

So, it's taken Fluttershy almost a month to recover from Luna befriending the hay out of her. That sounds about right for her. [lol]

My method is usually using a model picture, so I used a pic from the show for reference. I guess Luna's design is more complicated so that model didn't work out as well.

I wonder how soon before someone makes a gif of Flutternod.

How in the name of the Lunar Republic did that come out of the show?

@Ginger, I dunno but fr some reason I couldn't stop noticing Fluttershy kicking up dirt.

Circles and lines, circles and lines, circles and lines, circles and lines.....

It's not that bad. It was that good when I was seven.

The animation did look quite good, actually, even by show standards. I'll be looking forward to the whole episode.

Even with a model, the skeleton is still the most important part by far. the model should only help you arrange the pose of the skeleton. But the lines and circles are what guide your overall drawing. It's like stretching a canvas over a wireframe - you can arrange the wireframe on your own, but the canvas over top of it wll follow the frame. It's also a really good 'rough. It's simple enough to draw in seconds, but expressive enough that you can immediately see when something is wrong with the drawing.

To all artist bronies. I have found the best art teacher online ( and trust me I have been looking for ages). But it requires a ram commitment to art ( not your average 10 step tutorial) it's basically the hard and long path.

I will post it later ( I have a test). Tough if you you only want to be able to copy I recommend Betty Edwards's drawing from the right side of the brain.

The issue with circles is that Luna and Celestia have far more elongated designs. I guess I'd move toward ovals at that point but still.....

Do not look at this picture if you don't like being spoiled

Who will be Rainbow Dash's pet? (it won't be the owl because of Owlowiscious)

wild mass guess The hero of "The Mysterious Mare Do Well" is Scootaloo wanting to impress her hero.

This is actually the most active we've seen Pinkie in a while.

Is Flutter-nodding seriously going to become a meme?

What I used to do when I dabbled with drawing is to take a photocopy or printout of some character and draw guide lines and circles on top of that. Kind of like reverse-engineering an artist's final product. Not to copy their style (unless I'm attempting fanart), but to get a feel for how things are built.

Does that make sense?
But apart, all we are is just a pile of mush and some crumbly dry mess...

The guys in the comments section for that vid are disheartening. (one of them called RD a Mary Sue)

but another said that the creators are running out of ideas

Actually, Ceklestia and Luna both still use circles.

I'm... not at home right now, but when I am I could do a quick side view of the skeltons I would use, if you'd like?
