Suspension of Disbelief

sorry to be quiet this week AGAIN, ya'll. Besides the new job, we needed to take my brother to the emergency room twice. The doctor thinks he may have lupus, so stay tuned for the next episode of why-can't-my-family-catch-a-damn-break

anyway, in lighter news, RoboHeather sent me in a really nice batch of ideas (thank you Heather, you're a gem!). One being that Smoky and Phoenix are best buds (Fire Bros 2.0!) She had this to say:

Captain Celaeno

"It's time to be awesome!'


can y'all tell i like drawing birbs


i really like the design of the pirate birds, but one thing that bothered me about Celaeno's design was how slim and humanoid she looks compared to the rest of her crew, whom are all mostly hunched over and beastly looking. So I chucked her old waifish design out the window in favor of a giant raptor. Because the solution to any bird design is "needs more dinosaur".

Life Update

Sorry for the art slowdown this week, all. I was going through a long hiring process for my new job. It's in adult education, gonna be working in the testing department. It's complicated work, but fortunately, it's a part-time position. I'll still be making art, pumping out doodles, working on commissions- though there may be a little pump in the road while I'm adjusting to my new schedule and learning an ungodly amount of lab procedures and regulations. Your patience is greatly appreciated, ...

Carcharodon Family Tree

The completed tree of my favorite convoluted horse family, I hope it's easy enough to read and follow

I'm not 100% finished fiddling with the backstory, but here's the gist of what i have so far

A long time ago, a young mare named Coral decided to run away from home. Coral wanted to be a seafarer, like in the stories her grandmother old! What actually ended up happening was Coral falling into a gang of pirates, a rotten crew of the very worst scum and villainy....and she ended up ...

a sneak peek at the family tree i'm working on

featuring a bonus uncle Buck

playing around with head shapes, i thought it'd be interesting if Butch moreso resembled his mum, while Bruce is a dead-ringer for dear daddy Cutthroat (and it only gets worse as he ages)

Whoa Nelly

my brother got really mad when i drew this "big fat pony", so i kept on drawing her just to spite him

my mom loves her though, she says i should make a whole series about little fat unicorns 

my brother's finally out of the hospital! What an awful, tedious, mind-numbingly boring ordeal for everybody. I'd recommend that everyone be as selective as possible when choosing a place to receive medical care, we spent four goddamn days waiting for the cardiologist to show up (he neve...

Beleagured Babysitter

colored a hospital doodle~

In my story, Ocellus is a "new era" changeling, born shortly after the political marriage of Queen Chrysalis and Princess Celestia. Due to the more or less successful integration of her changelings into pony society, Chrysalis was able to draw in more ambient love to create a new, healthier, more colorful brood of subjects. 

Ocellus specifically was something of an experiment for Chrysalis, a prototype Queen class changeling meant to become her even...

1.) "What are your intentions with my daughter, whelp?"

Queen Chrysalis trying (and failing) to intimidate little Joey, her daughter's suspicious little schoolmate. She dun like how blushy and giggly they get when they accidentally touch hooves on their silly little movie nights

2.) Irie loving up on her big bug mama. My favorite way to iterate Chrysalis' design is to imagine the crypt-keeper boinked a halloween decoration. Why make he...

Art Slowdown

Sorry for the slowdown on content  lately! My brother’s in the hospital (my family seriously cannot catch a break with health scares lately). What we thought was a cold turned out to be some major sinus issues that have lead to inflammation in the tissues surrounding his heart. He’s feeling better, but he keeps having to stay overnight for observation and never-ending tests. So I’ve been taking shifts with my mom keeping him company in his hospital room. 

We’ve been so...

The Hotshot

Stormy's first real introduction to Zipperflash was losing to him. Stormy had been easily outflying the rest of the young elite fliers and had even developed a bit of an ego.....so it was a surprise to everyone when that ego got stomped into the mud by a new young hotshot that'd appeared to come out of nowhere. His speed is so ludicrous that Stormy's left in the dust, wondering what in the hell just happened. Who is this guy?

Get Your Shit Together Rookie

"Ah....Sergeant Spitfire, ma'am? Are you sure all this is completely necessary?"

"Necessary'? Is it 'necessary' for me to drink my own urine?"

".....Probably not."

"No! But I do it anyway, because it's sterile, and I like the taste!"

~~~~~~~

in my head, Spitfire sounds less like a kid-friendly drill sergeant stereotype and more like Patches O'Houlihan from Dodgeball. Same voice and everything

Wonderboy

playing around with Stormy's backstory a bit, I noticed that I focused a lot on Stormy's relationships, rather than any conflicts or goals or what-have-you, oops 

So. For most of Stormy's life, he was content being a scrawny hippie, happily strumming his ukulele and snoozing on top of clouds. He didn't gel with his parents' emphasis on competition and athleticism....Stormy's always been a go-with-the-flow kind of guy. At least, that's how he'd describe himself.....Mama Das...

While she's quite gifted in song and dance (dance practice with her parents is her favorite!), it's possible her true talent is science! She's as studious as her father and very interested in forming and testing vario...

notes on Marina and Wave (from my tumblr):

 

-Marina is the daughter of Coco Pommel. Coco was well past her prime  child-bearing years and had kinda assumed the the odds of her ever having a  foal were next to zero. Although Coco was flabbergasted when she came up  pregnant, it was love at first sight the second she got to hold her &nb...

A request! A patron asked for Bruce in one of those bubble baths he totally does not take. They also asked how Bruce got into taking them in the first place:

Carrying Wave Rider put a lot of stress on both Bruce's mind and joints. He was ache-y and miserable most of the time, but determined to tough it out.....right up until the day he came home to Rosemary and Magnolia in his bathroom, beaming and beckoning toward the bubbly, lavender-scented bathwater.

Bruce struggled, but Rosem...

Requests Open!

Wowie, 102 patrons! Hi, everybody (and newcomers), I just wanted to say thank you so much for your support! It means the world to me~

I wanna provide lots of new content for my patrons, so I'm thinking of doing request doodles? If you've ever wanted to suggest something for me to draw, now's the time! Although I'd like to keep it limited to the Pandoraverse and MLP, I'm not opposed to doing doodles of Daisy, animals, other fandoms, etc! Request away!

concept art for a more insectoid queen chrysalis

fun fact: her "eyes" aren't true eyes, but rather meant to mimic mammal eye structures and distract prey. Her real eyes are six tiny, unassuming dots on her forehead.

Party Crasher

Vogue stipulated that her birthday garden party have a very strict dress code, probably in an attempt to keep out a certain meat-headed on-again off-again girlfriend. Phoenix gatecrashed it anyway. 

Phoenix hates getting dolled up, so it's debatable whether this was done out of spite, or maybe she cares enough about Vogue to follow her stupid prissy dress code. 

Probably spite, though.
