Look at that sad lack of horse. I'm trying to remember how to do humans in general. And I had fun with an itty bitty house under some roots where I guess some mice people live or something generic like that.

I just wanted to free sketch some ponies for a bit. So yeah... Have some pones.

Looking for junk to talk about during some timelapses. I gave this to the Discord chat and then realized some of you may not check Discord all that often. So, throw some ideas at me to blab about for a while. Almost anything will do. Small topics, long in depth stuff, it's all good.
Just throw it all in that gdoc

This is the first panel of the next update. About 2.5 hours of work compressed to 8 min.

Got a mess of a mix of sketches.
Some false starts on an update involving Pterus (dealing with a bully in the foster home).
Twi feeling bad about something. I think this was from when she ditched Luna on their anniversary? No clue.
Some designs for Moonset Luna.
I had started replaying Animal Corssing: New Leaf. So some of them (and relevant with Isabelle getting into Smash Bros!)
A Tuna joke
Some landscape studies.
Crappy caricatures of my pets
Some studies from this nature story about a starving lion taking on a buffalo cow.
Some sketches from artprompts.org, like the baby octopus, the shady alley, the "old friend" teddy bear
Trying to figure out pegasus wings
There's probably more I can dig up from old forgotten files, but these filed up a page quite nicely
2018-09-15 18:27:13 +0000 UTC View PostTo determine the winner of the monthly sketch, I'm just outright rolling a d20.
I may apply modifiers to the winners later on to reduce chances of winning two or three times in a row. Not sure about it.
But in any case, we have a winner this month! I'll be contacting them shortly.
We checked out a graphic novel called "Sunstone" from the library (NSFW warning if you look it up). I love the art style. So I'm tinkering around with it, trying to incorporate what I like about it with my own art.
The black and white bits are pretty much direct traces where the Twi and Luna are just referencing the style of Stjepan Sejic (the author and artist of "Sunstone"). The Luna is the least directly referenced.
I definitely need to tinker with it some more for it to become more natural to me, but I think I like this art direction.

This is going up a bit earlier than the actual post... but I don't think ya'll mind.

And the second panel of today's Royal Sketchbook update.

I don't know that these sketchier pieces are fun to look at at full res, but hey.
2018-08-05 00:56:58 +0000 UTC View PostI had to do this a bit early due to a busy day tomorrow.
The Tiers and Goals have been redone. With the exception of the $1 and $100 tier, the other tiers were deleted which means, if you were in that tier, you've been temporarily moved to "No Benefit"
And I want ya'll to get your benefits!
2018-07-31 18:42:44 +0000 UTC View PostJust a heads up, I'll be redoing my page here. The change will go through August 1.
Tier rewards will be the biggest change. Tier amounts will have a minor change and the goals will be redone as well.
The new tiers will be as follows:
$1: Access to Discord
$10: Access to timelapses, sketch pages and full resolution images.
$30: Every month, you are entered in to a raffle to win a custom drawing from me.
$60: Commission tier. You can build up for however long you want and cash it in for a commission. It can be however polished or contain as many characters as relates to the amount given and my limits as an artist.
$100: Instant Commission: You have a random idea? Let me know and I'll draw it for you!
If you any feedback or ideas, let me know! I want this to be best for both of us.

Blissey said there wasn't nearly enough of Somnambula preening. The situation isn't completely resolved, but at least there's one of them out there now!

I'm reworking this whole page. New/different tiers with some slightly different rewards.
The first new addition is in already. Every patron should now have access to my Discord server "The Ship Menace."
If you have any suggestions for how to make this page better or for how I can be better at taking care of my patrons, I'd love to hear it!

I'll probably upload these later to tumblr but for now, have some wip videos!
This was a bit of a test run to check my recording settings. Which need to be massively changed... No audio on this so put on your favorite tunes.
2017-09-07 18:04:55 +0000 UTC View PostHey there!
I'll be using patron OCs for background ponies in this shindig as much as I can. Every tier, even the $1 tier, patrons are encouraged to submit! Send me the info I'll need to silfoe45@gmail.com.
Things I'll need:
-OC references, any image with their colors, mane/tail style and mark should work.
-If you want them in the main hall, the reception, out in the crowd in the town square or along the carriage route.
-If you want them in the main hall for the actual ceremony or the reception, they need proper formal wear! Let me know what they should be wearing.
-If they have a Plus One and if so, their relevant info.
Hey there!
Due to convention panics, I've been forgetting to remind you guys to claim your rewards!
Whenever you want to claim what's owed, just send me a message. The fastest way to get a hold of me is via email silfoe45@gmail.com or, if you don't mind waiting until the next time I remember to check Patreon, here will work as well.

In lieu of a critique, Spellbound wanted a list of resources for a beginner artist. I make no claims that this is a comprehensive list, but it should give plenty of material to work with and learn from.
2016-03-24 00:24:41 +0000 UTC View PostA bit late, but I just want to send a reminder to claim your March rewards if you haven't already!
2016-03-15 01:30:38 +0000 UTC View Post
I don't often post the rewards, but this is the first critique done as a reward. So to mark the occasion, here's a more intermediate critique posted with the patron's permission.
2016-03-04 14:51:12 +0000 UTC View PostThis is just a reminder to claim your rewards for February!
2016-02-12 03:39:20 +0000 UTC View PostHey there, as mentioned previously, I needed to clean everything up and reorganize. As a result of my own changing life circumstances, the individual rewards have changed. There will be some visual changes later but this should be the only substantial change.
Please check out the new rewards and adjust your pledge if you want to! There's just under two weeks before the next charge.
2016-01-20 22:00:22 +0000 UTC View PostHey there, I'm feeling the need to refine my Patreon rewards and generally spiffy this place up. I'll be doing a lot of it today in livestream https://picarto.tv/SilfoeArts but that's by no means final.
If you have any suggestions for tier rewards, milestone rewards or anything, let me know! You are the people I aim to please here and your input is invaluable. You can send them either through a note here, on Deviantart (http://silfoe.deviantart.com/), Tumblr (http://silfoearts.tumblr.com/) or email at silfoe45@gmail.com.
2016-01-16 19:26:21 +0000 UTC View PostHey, so I've got a HORRIBLE memory and am very, very scatterbrained so I apologize for not getting to your rewards. I want to do them, I just can't keep track of who is owed what with the exception of Chuck and Makoto who have been awesomely proactive about reminding me.
If you want to claim the reward you're due, send me a message here or a note at silfoe.deviantart.com or an email at silfoe45@gmail.com

Hey there! So I did the thing I said I would do and made a timelapse from a piece this month. I honestly don't know what else to say here... Enjoy!
