Study drawing of a creature that folks will be seeing very soon in Equestria dreamscape. I did this to confirm I had was correctly remembering the various elements of it.

While the palace mages and medical staff struggled to help Last Thing Trapped in a living nightmare in my Equestria dreamscape the gears of government kept turning, and Princess Celestia had other duties that she had to perform.
The pale alicorn looked at the three ponies seated in front of her office desk. They were dusty...

Continuing my series of anthro MLP maids. This time it's Coco Pommel. I could see Rarity getting into cosplaying and when she wasn't modeling her latest creation having Ms. Pommel model them instead. It wouldn't become her main source of income but it might help generate interest in her boutiques.

This is a recently completed patron reward for Feyro. The character's name is Xarina and she was created by RP_Ghost. FYI. Their FA page is definite NSFW. Anyway this is my take on the character. There were a couple of challenges with this piece. First I had no ba...

This is Kidu. He's been the villain that our party in our 5th Edition D&D game has been pursuing for the last 3 levels. We finally brought him low recently. He was a lizardman death cleric who our DM Caerdwyn did a very good job of keeping in him the background most of the time but always on our minds.

Another of the drawings from my last Picarto stream. Someone requested an anthropomorphic Fluttershy wearing a Cheongsam. Of course Chinese New Year was just a couple of weeks ago so I thought fireworks were called for in this piece.
FYI. Fluttershy's pose and mannerism ...

This is the second drawing from last night's all request Picarto stream. The suggestion was made for a grownup, anthropomorphic Sweetie Belle dressed as a goth. This tickled my fancy and this was the result. I decided to go with the more Lolita style of goth for this piece. At least Rarity would probably like the dress.

According to my memory its been quite awhile since I had an all request stream. I definitely haven't had one in 2019 yet, so lets fix that! Tonight 2/16/19 starting at 5:30pm Pacific I will be streaming on Picarto. Now request streams have some basic rules which are:
1. You must be in the Picarto chat during the actual stream to make a request, and I will only ...

Yesterday I posted a sketch of King Trafalgar Maximilian Augustus Leopold the III and Applebloom as a little mousegirl. Welcome to my court On other sites I was asked whether Princess Luna attended the gala and if so was she a rodent of some type. Well the answer is yes and yes. She actually makes a very nice bat. It's been over a thousand years since she's assumed this fo...

A scene from an upcoming Equestria dreamscape. King Trafalgar Maximilian Augustus Leopold the III is an individual who Applebloom interacts with off and on in the course of her journeys through the Dream Realm.

Last Thing's shivered under the blankets of the infirmary bed in my Equestria dreamscape. uncontrollable spasms wracked in her body as she drifted in and out of lucidity. The inhibitor ring on her horn crackled and smoked as it struggled to contain the bursts of magic that were pulsing through the mare's body.
The mare's room was one of the most heavily warded locations in the palace infirmary. Along with the normal battery magical safeguards in the r...
Princess Celestia sat on a satin cushion in front of small table that had been set up by the palace staff for two diners on her private veranda in my Equestria dreamscape. A brilliant white linen cloth was draped on it. Upon it sat a fine spread of treats.
A pot of mint tea sat steeping next to a flask of calvados which her guest enjoyed. For the tea there was a small carafe of cream and a pot of honey. A tangy wedge of Stilton-style blue cheese sat re...
Been in fighting a low level cold for the last couple of days, but I still got a fair bit of work done today including some more Patreon reward stuff that I'll be posting tomorrow. So as a reward to myself I decided to do this drawing of anthro Fluttershy.
Now along with my regular Equestria dreamscape I now have an anthropomorphic Equestria dreamscape that get to visit about once a week. Unlike the original dreamscape this one doesn't have as m...

More development art for Caerdwyn's large Dungeons and Dragons patron reward piece. The brigands/pirates who are confronting the main protagonist are motley mixture of armor and gear. Possible designs of helmets that might be in the background of the piece.

More reference art for the large patron reward piece for Caerdwyn. I want to have one orc in the background as an antagonist. Unlike a lot of other D&D art I am drawing heavily from medieval history and warfare for inspiration in this piece. The orc's armor is heavily influenced by 11th century Byzantine. His sword is a falchion which has many of the same properties of the naval cutlass so p...

Looking at a large, complicated, important illustration is often like looking at a iceberg. Most of it is invisible to the viewer. It lurks beneath the surface.
Same is true for a illustration. Before you start on a piece you may end up doing a lot of study and homework that the viewer will never see or know of. Unless you post it online like this.
Now before I go any further I wa...

Rough development art for an upcoming project/commission. When I am working up poses it often helps me if I have a reason setting, scenario, or reason that the character is doing whatever they're doing. So last night in my sleep Petina scrounged up this little scene from my subconscious to explain a wet T-shirt Octavia. It appears to have gotten Vinyl Scratch attention.
This is an interior illustration for the Roan RPG and is also a piece for one of my patrons Sura-Resch who backed a certain amount in the Kickstarter. Today Saturday 2/2/19 starting at 5:30pm Pacific I will demonstrating this technique on 2019-02-02 18:01:05 +0000 UTC View Post
Rainbow Dash stared up at the bright blue midday sun and tried to figure out what had gone wrong.
"I don't get!" She grumbled. "I've got her markings now. I borrowed her hat, and I said all those folksy thing she says while she's doing stuff like this? I don't get it."
The mare looked up at her hooves hoping that somehow the the rope had magically untangled around her hooves. Unfortunately fate app...

Saturday 2/2/19 starting at 5:30pm Pacific I will streaming on Picarto This weekend I will be demonstrating my colored pencil technique on the air. It's the same technique I used to create this piece of Princess Celestia on a past Picarto stream. So join Saturday for an evening of art, stories, and some really great folks. See you there!
While Twilight Sparkle tried to understand what her most recent dream meant to her Shall we begin another pony was pondering similar questions in my Equestria dreamscape.

At the moment much of the United States is grappling with record cold weather. On days like this a good soak in hot bath can feel really great. Especially if you someone to share the water. Vinyl Scratch and Octavia seem to have such a relationship.
