Episode art for Season 7 Episode 6
Nostalgia can be a hard hitter.
Little quickish piece to catch up with the US episodes after EFNW, before the next one hits and all that. Aargh. At least for now my con season is calm... until BronyCon starts up the massive storm again haha.

Some fun with these two highlights of a critters. Although the Giraffe kinda looked like she shouldn't quite be an animal hah. Such pony face she had!

A bit more of a practice piece, something I want to do more often with uploads. Whether it's just practice run, experiment, style comparisons, concept art, etc.

Little VA Birthday sketch I happened to find some time for today. Never made this before, so that was interesting and making them as chibis'

Oh gosh environment. Not my natural field in art, but can be a necessary ones at times. I just haven't really had such a big focus on it in a long time. Mostly it's primarily character instead.

A small little piece for Episode 2. Not as significant as Episode 1, but it also highlights the change I wanted for Season 7, to make it less stressful. Not having to do a full painting, forced by scenes that don't suit themself too well for em or are just not as inspiring. Although the previous piece was fairly out there high level of inspiration haha. So maybe unfair to compare to that one.
Either way, ...

MLP Season 7 Episode 1 inspired art!
Not exactly a scene interpretation, but more the feel of the episode. An idea I just had to make, especially once I decided to go space instead of clouds! Actually kinda easier in a way haha.
More babbling text in the DA description for those interested. Hope y'all enjoy this piece!
It's been fun to make.
Inspired by Season 7 Episode 1!
This went way out of control haha, I did not plan on making so much space. It was just gonna be clouds or something, but this seemed a lot better.
Anyhow, I couldn't do a viewing and art last Saturday because I was at BABS, and this midweek stream couldn't fit this piece. I'll continue it tomorow, hopefully finishing it before the next Saturday stream, because that's when I need to make the next episode art haha.
Anyhow, a little Patreon look at the ...

More braindump text over at DA.
Creatures feel a bit more natural to me in terms of sketching and designing. But I was struggling a bit with detailed painting... I'll figure it out some other time.

Sorry for my lack of uploads, being sick kinda put me on hold.
Still not fully recovered, but it's mostly coughing now... hopefully that'll go over soon too
Anyhow anyhow, random OC pony! With some ornamental designs on her. Perhaps the title is actually her name, who knows. The initial drafts of metal wings made by her?! Synthetic feathers, etc.
That'd be quite a reputation.
Conceptual Applejack piece. Trying out some designs combined with an older shading style, although I skimped out half way through.

I don't make that many robots, and of course when I do... Applejack!

Just a litte Applejack! Keeping things a bit simple today. Spend most time on doodles/sketches, and while I initialy planned to paint/shade this, I rolled with this style instead.
Kinda because I was getting sore muscles and I wanted to keep things a bit simpler and faster hehe.

Since I've been playing Horizon Zero Dawn, I thought it'd be fitting to make some art! Or at least sketches hehe.
I may continue these later, refine them perhaps, or shade them even, who knows. They're kinda complex if detailed, though.
I did already finish the story, oh gosh was it good.

Now a follow up to Applejack having a mighty fancy outfit, it's the fashionista herself! The Rarity of them all.
Pretty different approach, direct in colour rather than greyscale, but using Applejack as reference to try and get a similar result.
Not entirely sure which I prefer... they both have pros and cons haha.
Welp, maybe I just have to make more to find out?! Not sure if I'll end up making...

Applejack demands apples!
A little drawing again, fun little style to work in. It seems every year I go through this exploration... and always at least once end up with a new line based chibi-ish style.

Tried to fake some physical cards all in photoshop. Only started out as trying to fake a traditional medium, but then I brought the canvas itself into it too haha.
Fun little exercise or so, although this one isn't that complex.
Maybe I should end up actually printing these at some point...

Little green mare! From my 4 marem I made a year ago. I already did one of them a couple weeks back, thought I'd make the freckly one hah. Felt like painting her like this, since she did have that bit more historical appearance to her already.
A challenge of managing details in a decent amount of time. Almost made it a two session piece, though.

Be sure to check out the animated version. It's very simple, but fun little extra I think.
This was quite the style exploration. Quite outside my comfort zone, although there was still enough fami...

Celestia has always held a special spot amongst princesses.
She's the brightest star in the sky, face of Equestria, something that holds immense responsibility, yet she's also just a pony like all others.
She shows this by being tough when needed, but still compassionate and kind. To be able to hold such a position for more than a thousand years, it not just becomes a responsibility but also great b...

A pony returns! This was a design I made a year back amongst 3 others. Was quite the favourite back then, so I decide to fully paint her!
Quite the challenge her pattern proved to be, though, but interesting.

Little speedpaint Applejack on a random sketch I had previously made!
Dramatic stylized expressions in high shaded style are alwaysa bit tricky. Although I ended up more reserved here than I'd want to end up at.

A quick rough piece with some backstory attached. Kinda made so I could do that. My most worked out group from First Contact War.
An ancient and secluded group, originally founded to protect and maintain Equine existence amongst all other lifeforms. Often born and grown into it. Although barely known by most ponies, mostly just seen as myths, even when they were... 2017-01-29 03:28:22 +0000 UTC View Post
It's been so long since I've made a high complexity outfit for Applejack. Had to relearn a bunch of approaches, and reconsider existing ones. Definitely a challenge to find the most efficient way to work on it. But it's also taken quite a few hours, the longest piece in possible couple years.
Hope it was all worth it!

Some design work! Something I havn't really made in a while. It's fun making different designs on the same subject, whether it's OC design, outfits, or something else. And it's useful.

Because the start of the year requires its Apples to truely get started.
Little portrait to warm up. Trying out a mix of styles old and new... as I often end up doing hah.

Workname, WIP.
Something I've been meaning to do, share some still in progress stuff with my patrons!
This piece is also part of my slight change to Saturday Stream plans, instead of only doing start/finish pieces, I want to get back into bigger scale, more time consuming pieces that take multiple Saturday Streams. Inspired by one of my older Applejack pieces, and some newer ones combined.
I'll be keeping this Applejack exclusive to working on Saturdays, while I may fill midweek...
1 apple for day 1 of 2017
Happy new years y'all! I just had to make an Applejack... I may or may not maybe make more.

The one I wanted to get released at least before the end of the year, for you patrons. I constantly appreciate all the support all of you have given me, allowing me to create things like this. So it's appropriate I share that result back.
Although there were couple other pieces I intended to be timelapsed first, I pushed this one ahead as I felt I was running late with any already. I ran into some stuff here and there on the other recordings, and figuring out some consistent sources for music ...
