Would you like that colored?

Not a drawfag but I tried.
>>27615030
That's gorgeous.
>>27614876
Jesus. I don't know who requested the griffon, but they have excellent taste (pun intended)
The summary seems correct.
>>27615031
>not a drawfag
It's not the pinocle of all pony art but it's definitely not shit. The shading job is very well done and I absolutely adore Rainbow's face. Just keep at it and you'll surely get better. You're already pretty talented so it shouldn't be hard
>>27615116
It wasn't a request. I'm bucking in love with gryphons, and this is just an attempt from a moment when i was slacking. It's a... "free-to-take"? I mean, if somebody wants me to finish it, they can chose who's being eaten out.

Would you do Gustave eating out Pinkie, to make the two pics connected?
>>27615220
Griffon looks too different, but otherwise a genius idea.

Yeah, artist would have to alter the birb for it. If he's willing to though, that'd be brilliant.

/r/ing for some to either edit on a large, cute cock, like the one shown on Spike, onto Rarity, or to redraw her completely in Spikes position, with the same face she has on now.

No problem. Besides, I could be wrong.
Can I get a critique on this? On top of genuinely wanting to improve, I kinda wanted make sure the OR saw it because I posted it late in the thread.
>>27617358
The spiraling pattern thing is awesome. It looks like spurs on the shoes, but somehow that works given that changelings are mock-horses in the first place.
>>27617358
I don't see his tail, but other than that there's really not much wrong with it. Could use some detail, but that's more difficult to do outside of software.
>>27617358
The position of the head relative to the torso looks a bit off, like it's too low. First try to lightly sketch out a skeleton to make sure the anatomy is sound, then draw on top of it.
>>27617358
OR here. I loved the drawing you did. Great job, drawfag.
>>27615030
That's brilliant, yes please. If you want to of course.
A very angry Pinkie Pie swearing and cutting up clothes with a box cutter.
>>27617944
With Pinkamena hair perhaps? Or classic?
>>27617358
Im going to critique this on a point by point.
Im going to start with the part that struck me as the most glaring problem, the anatomy. Namely I saw the neck and back. you have to understand that the neck and back are one system, the spine. Starting at the rump the spine goes down sharply, and just before the ribs your spine turns back up sharply. your head is in a position that suggest a nearly ninety degree turn in the middle of the back, which just wouldn't work. then comes the head, which you have to realise is attached to the spine at a certain degree. I want you to try and turn your head so that your chin is on the other side of your shoulder. Unless you are in fact an owl it isn't going to happen. your neck is twisting in a way that it just shouldn't. both of these were the first things I fixed in the attached pic.
next I looked at what they were wearing. Now, I don't know what the request originally was, but the outfit is awkward at best. To start, the colors are too low contrast. If you had used either the lighter green as the main color or the lighter red as the color of the stripes it would have worked a lot better. the wired swirls with eges jutting out doesn't look particularly appealing either, but I assumed the outfit was predetermined, in which there is little that you could change in that regard.
lastly is shading. You didn't do a lot of shading at all. there was a little bit on the far legs, but as a whole it was absent, and thats fine. the show itself doesn't have a lot of shading and that can be a successful stylistic choice. however, even the show has a cast shadow. It can be as simple as that little bit of gray I did, and it serves to ground your character, so that they don't look like they are hovering on the page.
Hope this helped, if you have any questions let me know.
>>27617950
Half and half.
>>27617970
I love constructive criticism like this. It Straight up tells you the mistakes made, how it can be improved, and does it without sounding aggressive or toxic.
>>27617970
Let's not forgot that it's balancing on two legs.
>>27617970
Personally, I really love the 'wired swirls with edges jutting out' but I agree with everything else here.
>>27618024
As an artist I learned that that is the best kind of critique. Very rarely is the problem with the concept or the artist, its almost always with the execution.
>>27618083
>concept or the artist, its almost always with the execution
>concept
>artist
>execution
Those are pretty interchangeable but I know what you mean.
>>27618006
OR here, this.
>>27618069
my problem was less with the swirls themselves, but how they were used. if it had maybe been one swirl working its way across like a vine or maybe connecting them in some way, it might have worked better. having several independent swirls at odd points doesn't feel right.
>>27618058
That bugs me, its more noticeable in the crits drawing, honestly the original artist did a better job.
>>27618125
>Bugs me
>Bugs
Your best rendition of a pone benis.
>>27618102
No.
The concept is what the picture is about. It is the character, vehicle, building, or idea that is being expressed.
The Artist is the person drawing the picture. It has nothing to do with what the picture is about
The execution is how the artist attempts to draw the concept. It is how the artist uses color, light, and the other technical aspects of art.
each of these are completely different things.
>>27618160
Saying that the problem is execution is fucking redundant though. Of course it's execution. What else would it be?
>>27618167
My point was simply that that is what needs to be critiqued. I can't count the number of times have seen a person ask for critiques and be told that the subject is bad or dumb, or worse, that they are just bad artists. Its not just here, but around the internet, and even when talking with other people who draw in real life.
>>27618179
Besides Zimbabwe who has ever been told they were outright bad artists? Everyone that's ever drawn here has had some kind of potential but they either stop posting within a month or just outright refuse to do what it takes to get better.
I'm not really understanding this tangent you're going off on. I've been told i'm shit plenty of times on the internet and if anything that just spurs me on to get better.

Requesting Rarity contemplating dog knees
Hi!
I've been watching some streams today to find a way to make a decent colouring, because honestly, I couldn't do a thing by myself.
I currently have the piece with shadows on. It's very experimental, I'd say, but it's almost complete and looks decent. Right now I'm trying to add some luminosity layers for a fancy result, but it always looks too much...
tldr:
-the one with only the shadows looks cool to me, but utterly plain as well so it makes want to add more details to make it better.
-for the fancy one, i can't find a good balance between two colours which would give a real cool aspect to the art, so it looks too much, like overdone make-up
Gives me headache, what do?

You're going to have to keep exploring. Look at the artists that you look up to and see what they're doing. What do they consider "finished" and polished and try to get to that level. It doesn't happen overnight nor does it happen in a few weeks. Every stroke of the pen gets you closer to the artist you want to be. Just keep going.
>>27625567
Obviously. It's all about training. But learning so hard a thing alone is kinda demoralising, so it's cool to have nice guys like you backing people like me. Ty, dude :)

To all the artists here I have to ask, why do you spend so much time doing these requests for random people? Do you have that much fun drawing? Don't get me wrong, I am very grateful for all the awesome work you guys have done, but I'm just confused as to why you do this.
>>27627289
A lot of people like to be apart of a community and it helps people force themselves to draw new things via limited /r/ options in the thread.
>>27627289
I need to draw stuff for practice anyway, so it might as well be a request. And the fact that someone is waiting for it to be done keeps you from slacking off too much.
>>27627289
I'm here just to be a better artistalso I like the attention I get from it too

>>27627289
I like doing requests here because frequently I get the opportunity to do things I would never do otherwise. Not only that, there is something cathartic about corrupting these characters in porn or violence. Here it is ok to draw and share things that I could never show my friends or family for one reason or another.
and yes, its also fun.
>>27627075
Best other image I could find, the episode doesn't show her cutie mark for long but I'm pretty sure it's a bucket of white paint and a brush.
>>27627289
It's always interesting to see how someone's request can set off your imagination! I know I always have fun doing them and the results are always great no matter how challenging or what skill level. Speaking of skill level, it's always good practice too! I know I'm quite rusty with the mlp style so I feel requests are helping me refresh my memory. You also have a chance to be critiqued (in a kind and professional way, mind you) and get help from other great artists for improvement. It gives the artists the opportunity to be creative with a community who has an adoration for the same thing! Overall, seeing how happy you can make someone just for bringing an idea they had to life is such a satisfying feeling and I have so much fun fulfilling requests. It almost makes me feel special to have requesters ask for my zim stuff when this is all about ponies! So yes draw threads are great for both the artists and the inspiration providers.

>>27627289
Personally I dont do requests unless it really resonates with me. Lately I've been drawing for close friends because I already know they trust me and will enjoy whatever I put out. I also surround myself with other artists who can give me honest feed back. Now a days I just lurk and try to help out artists here who are struggling with whatever information I can give while doing a request once in a blue moon.
>>27628852
okay here is a question for you "artist"
IF you are an artist but does not take request then why the fuck are you even here? I mean its called a DRAW THREAD. Plus What makes your art so special then everyone else? I mean the artist i seen so far on here are alright. they just draw for the fun of it. but you act like that someone should pay you just to do art on here.
>>27628852
It sounds like you're hugboxing yourself. just saying.
>>27628905
or have the ego of Prince BlueBlood thinking that people should be happy that he is here.
>>27628886
The fuck? I just said I draw requests when I'm really feeling it. 90% of the time I dont feel good enough to do most requests justice. You're making an awful lot of assumptions here.
Really I'm here for other artists. If that upsets you them oh well.
>>27628886
>hugboxing myself
Think whatever the fuck you want. Personally I dont care. I get my shit pushed in on a daily basis by guys who I ask critique from.
>>27627783
Doggy!
>>27628948
so really your making up an excuse not to do some of the requests on here? yeah that is legit.
>>27628982
Why do you care so much. I draw for myself first and foremost. This is a skill I honed for myself. Deal with it.
I'm here to help other artists and that's what ill continue doing. Not to draw for a spoiled child.
>>27628921
I don't think so? I understand that some requests may be uninteresting (saying that they draw requests once in a blue moon and only want to draw them if they're really interested in it) but that doesn't mean that they think that their art skill is better than everyone else's? How I see it is that they may just be a little doubtful to post their art for the whole internet to see and rather only prefer to share their art to a close-knit group (friends). I know there's things that I draw that I would only want to share with my friends. And critiquing other's art and seeing how they can help improve another's skill by offering their own advice but not being a frequent uploader of their own art isn't bad either. I don't think ego is at play here but more like personal reasons. I see no problem here.
>>27629015
There is no ego here. I've struggled so much in this hobby that I share any knowledge I can. Just ignore the shitters. They'll fuck off back to /s4s/ or something soon enough.

Not OR but very nice.
>>27624588
After some thought, I realize that an opportunity like this is incredibly rare for me, and that while the art is clearly very good, I also have a personal connection to it, which makes it an even more rare opportunity for such art to be made. This didn't just make my day, this made my month. And long after the month is over I'll remember this picture and how excited it made me. It's nice that my satisfaction pleases you, but I'd almsot feel bad if I didn't give you something for your troubles besides a pat on the back and a "good job". This took a lot of time and effort to make, time an effort that could have been spent doing other things. So I would very much like to pay, if you'd be willing.
Again, though, I have no idea how to even begin going about that. I'm practically clueless. I'm open to suggestions.
>>27629310
But for now, I'm headed to bed. It's been one hell of a night. Goodnight, all of you wonderful drawfags, may your pens be true.
>>27629310
I honestly don't understand why you two are still talking about payment here. This should have been taken to Skype or some other chat program when the idea of payment for services was even brought up. 4chan isn't really the platform for this kind of discussion. Take it to PMs already and leave it out of this thread.

Well, Sypke or even Steam works, although I'm not sure how to get your username without revealing it to this whole thread, and vice versa. I don't know if PMing works on 4chan, and if it does I don't know how. I've decided to give myself a name in case that makes things easier. I heard you mention an almost empty Furaffinity account. Although I basically never use my account, that could be a start.
>>27629368

We should have a podcast talking about the best drawings in the Draw thread every say... 2 weeks. That'd be nice.
So nice.
I love when my computer decide to crash for no reason...
There goes half an hour of work...
>>27631628
A podcast?
Like "Today Anon meet Pencil! Please, feel free to ask questions!"?
Or more like "Welcome to IRC, fear us, we are drawfags"?
Could be a nice idea, but why not just use a dedicated thread?
Plus, what would be the added value?
>>27631771
Like, there'sa group of people talking about the best drawings here in drawthread. Maybe even feature the artists. Who knows. Just a thought.
>>27631051
You must have the memory of a goldfish then.
>>27631796
Okay, now I understand what you say.
I'm not against the idea, but is /mlp really the right place to do so?
Well, I mean, it could be great to give some recognition and fame to drawfags (and creatives in general) but, even if it could only be good for decaying /mlp, is it really the place to do so?
>>27631835
It is possible that things would go negative fast.
>>27631835
Well I mean, for example this drawing >>27629207 we could be talking about how the artist managed to pull off a silhouette and how he managed to shade Lyra with a dark green, not to mention the light bounce in her tux.
Or hell, we could even be talking about how to improve your request by being descriptive and concise like this post >>27614392. I mean, if you're asking for a drawing that relates to personality, you should probably include it in your request.
Who knows. Just wondering if anyone's interested. If not, oh well. I even heard there's a Skype group for the drawthread. They could talk about it.
Hi!
I would like to try doing some digital drawing. I have SAI and a small tablet to work with but I simply don't know what tools in it I should be using. I really dislike having all that options...
Would using the pen tool good to getting used to the tablet?
Sorry for the dumb question, I am just curious.
>>27627289
I mostly lurk and don't do requests. The draw thread made me quit drawing indefinitely and I don't have the stomach to keep going. Guess I just had enough of it.
>>27631989
Anything bad happened?
>>27627289
I am new with art but when I will get good enough I would be happy to do some requests that I find nice.
>>27627289
I want to get better at drawing. The only way to do that is to draw, be it good result or a bad one. I should draw something that I would not draw, myself, normally. I know what I want to draw and this isn't it. So maybe if I draw and get it right, I will have learned something as well have filled out somebody's request. Maybe I can get better as well as make somebody's day better, as well as get some useful advise about some unknown part of my drawing program.
>>27632002
Shitposting mostly. I just don't want to continue anymore.
>>27632044
I understand. Still drawing?
>>27631942
Lurk more. Mostly at >>27614281
And draw draw draw.
The more you draw, the better you will be (if nice anons gives you advice).
And prepare yourself for some serious shit, some anon here don't hold themselves and it can hurt.
>>27632044
It's a shame.
Shitposting is a pain and can disgust the weakest drawfag.
But you are not weak aren't you?
I'm sure that, if you love to draw, you will draw again (maybe not here, but you will probably draw for yourself or somewhere else).
>>27632084
No, I quit. It doesn't bring me joy anymore.
>>27632098
No thanks, Ill be fine. I like lurking better anyways.
>>27632108
As you just write, if it doesn't bring you joy any more, better stop it.
Enjoy lurking.
(but I believe that if you can provide pointer to newbe, it could be nice).
>>27627469

>>27630741
You see, I would like to see more drawfags like you.
I fucking hate Nyxposters, I hide them on sight, and when I started lurking this site and see their requests, man, I know they bump but they are annoying.
We get it, the Oc is stupid and shitty design, you can stop anytime. But I know you won't because of (you)'s.
>>27632156
Nice!
>>27632156
Lovely!
>>27632098
OK! Yeah. I'm lurking here and there.
Drawing too, I just want to do the digital next to the traditional.
Also that serious shit doesn't sound too bad.

>>27632584
Thank you, I will do my best.
>>27632664
Your outlines are god, definitely.
But she is very "human alike".
Look at the belly button, the face (and the vagina).
I mean, it's well drawn, you are good, but this may not be as some expect here, like, too anthropomorphic.
>>27632664
Truly I love every part of it, except the clit looks a bit too "bulbous" for my tastes. Every other part is cute as hell.
>>27632664
Looking nice. Keep it up!
>>27632664
Your line weight is here and there. You want heavier lines on the outlines of the figure and wherever objects or parts overlap. I bet there's some decent line weight tutorials on dA or something.

I know for the eyes, mine still suck and i need to work it, i know.
Okay I'll get rid of the belly button, even if I don't find it that shocking.
>>27632856
Too anthropomorphic?
It's not striking me but if you say so, there must be a trouble in my way of drawing. What causes that, and how fix (if it really needs to be)?
>>27633338
It doesn't need to be fixed anon, it's your art style. If you like it this way, keep it this way.
It just looks like you draw "normal" hentai and "ponified" it.
Let me explain. Save for the ears, horn and nose, the face is pretty much human.
As for the body, it's just the belly button and vagina that gives me the "human" feels. But, looking at it a second time, it's pretty much pony like.
As of personal taste, your first version was very goodeven if I don't like clop too much. But some here like it more pony like.
And thus, vagina and eye were asked to be changed.
The only picture I can find in a descent amount of time is pic related.
Look at pinkie, she didn't look like the show, but it's the artist style. Same for you. It's you style, change it if you wish. Keep it if you want.
IMHO
>>27633279
holy shit, you suck
>>27633428
Yeah, sure. But I don't mean to draw ponified hentai xD, so I'll try to make it more pony looking.
Thanks for your honest review, that's cool of you.
>>27633436
No, you utter idiot. There are truly bad artists out there. https://derpiboo.ru/1176771 I am not one of them. If you cannot tell the difference, then you simply are not here for the art. You don't seem to be able to find anything wrong in the pic you're linking to, and you aren't able to express dislike in any way other than meme'ing. Either go back to /b or go back to bed, child, it's probably a school night.

He's got no sense of scale. There's no hint what he's complaining about. His "message" is four words total. What'd he want, dripping blood? There wasn't any in the original pic. Colour? I had enough trouble drawing that scrape or slash or whatever that was. This is a drawthread. If he wants something perfect let him buy something from a commission guy. Was he even the guy who requested that? Or was he some idiot wandering in from crapping up some other thread?

You should use photoshop or your phone's editing to put a better filter on or fuck with the contrast/brightness/etc so your traditional art looks less shitty. Your art suffers otherwise and your art isn't bad.
>>27636282

>>27636343
You can find photo editing apps for your phone, but if you have an iPhone there are other ways to quickly edit easy things but you need to start with good lighting while taking the picture. Make sure that the lighting is even throughout the photo, your camera doesn't leave a shadow on it while you take the photo (which you can do by taking pics at an angle) and make sure everything is lined up properly.
>>27635838
Okay so I did this in Windows10's um, photo editing thing since I don't have photoshop accessible to me atm, so yeah

Similar problem but not nearly as bad, I've noticed that you have the tendency to vertically elongate the faces along with the features. Your lines could also use work as well, there are parts of the picture where I don't even know what I'm supposed to be looking at because of line inconsistencies.

Truly I think that the eyes, belly button, and vag being 100% human takes nothing at all away from the image. They aren't crucial to anatomy and only serve to strengthen the appeal of something that is trying to appeal to human male sexuality.

show me your sketch and I'll show you the biggest single step you can do at this point
>>27645922
Same thing as with the changeling in a dress. Make a light sketch of the character's skeleton, then draw on top of it. Otherwise the anatomy will be all over the place.
>>27646638
>>27646690
I kind of did that, just drew first figure quickly, then drew over using previous sketch as reference. Any tips?
requesting that you guys to ponyfiled ANYTHING on this picture. and you can alt it if you want.
>>27646845
You're starting with stylized characters and never attempted a more realistic style, am I right? If so, that's pretty much a classic mistake. Draw some real horses from reference photos, study their anatomy, and it will massively help your cartoony style. Might seem counterintuitive, but that's how it goes.
>>27646845
Nah #1-3 are what I wanted. Let's go.
Your #1 is a thumbnail. Thumbnails are for laying our the general idea in the picture, figuring out poses etc. Good so far.
#3 and #4 look like pretty solid follow-up for #2. #3 is off-model check (always good) and #4 is linework.
#2 is the problem. You lay out the skeleton guides but outside of the legs, they're incorrect. Most importantly, there's no spine, hip or ribcage so the connections and positions of the limbs get haphazard. Drawing well requires a lot of drawing what won't be seen in the finished work.
Draw naked before you clothe the figure--draw skeleton before you outline the figure.
I'll post a case study with some comments in a bit.

Hello!
Can I get some feedback on this one? I wonder what I could fix on this drawing.
Thanks for the help in advance.
>>27644360
thanks.sometimes i can't tell if it's a request or just posting art without the tags.
>>27646899
>>27647351
Thank you, anons. While it does sound counter-intuitive, I guess studying real anatomy is what is required, to improve.
And do post that study, I think it will help immensely.
>>27646845
Like other anons are saying, study real horses. After about 2-3 hours of solid study of horse anatomy your pones should start looking a lot better. After that you should really look into tracing from the show. Tracing can be a very good tool as long as you use it right. Put the reference on a layer that's around 50% density and put a layer over it. Put in where you think the joints and bones should be and use a couple of different poses from the show. Try to figure out what shapes the show uses too. Straight-up tracing outlines isn't really going to help you too much so try to avoid it. Redraw what you traced to the side and see how close you can get to the actual trace. After that put the reference away and try to do a few poses from memory. Don't focus on details and just try to get the anatomy down.
You're drawing many different attempts at one pose and that's a really good thing to do. I almost never go with my first or second draft and drawing the same pose over and over again lets you experiment.
>>27645600
The eyes are very well done! Very cute!

>>27649158
Neat. I will certainly try my luck in it!
>>27649009
threads stop bumping after 500 posts
>>27648977
Drawing from life is the best way to study, you use that knowledge to draw something from imagination and references.
Draw what you see exactly, don't fill in gaps or draw what you think should be there, otherwise you learn nothing and your study will be radically different from its source, kinda like this:
>>27645697
>>27645746
Implying he wanted it to look exactly like his reference. There's a few websites that teach this, and I think some link in the OR help too, I haven't checked them recently though.
>>27649222
I understand. I want to get good in art, but I really didn't put any effort into it so far for reasons.
I guess then the old school way of studying is the best way to study art.
>>27649253
http://drawabox.com/
http://www.ctrlpaint.com/
Here's some sites that can help.
>>27649253
It's best to alternate between study and creativity if you're serious about getting better. Always try new things, either a new brush type or coloring style instead of the same thing over and over. You'd be surprised how much a little change in either a brush texture or the thickness of lines can do to a picture. Finish a picture, learn from it through critique, then draw another one, don't try to perfect one, cause you'll never have a perfect drawing, only an acceptable one for your skill level.
>>27649272
Thank you!
>>27649347
I will keep that in mind! I will try to put myself to the test and see how far I will be able to go.

>dont try to perfect one
Best advice, imo. The time you spend trying to make one drawing "perfect" you could have sketched out 3-4 more drawings and probably could have figured out the problems you were having. Its ok to fix the problems a drawing has but just be mindful of the time you're spending on one drawing. Sometimes its better to just start over.
>>27649771
It's funny, but it seems like most artist tend to have perfectionist tendancies. I've known two personally in the past that were the same way.
>>27645922
>>27646845
>>27648460
Here we go.
>part the first
analysis (assumed you were going for a crouching pose; also I recommend to always include ribcage, shoulder blades and a rudimentary pelvis in the skeleton sketch to get the depth of the body accounted for from beginning)
- legs are fine but not positioned consistently--far foreleg is detached from chest, near foreleg's shoulder is in an unnatural position--hindlegs are fine in position but the tops of the femurs are too close to each other
- wing structure is fine but positions are wrong (especially far wing), far wing is also in awkward perspective for the pose
>part the second
- moving wings to tops of shoulders
- fleshing out the wings (think chicken wings) for clarity
- rotating far wing to a better suited perspective
>parts the third and the fourth
- (this should actually come first before the wing positioning)
- relocated and rotated near shoulder to lay on the corner of the ribcage and to accommodate the direction of the leg
- moved the gar leg closer to the body--joining the shoulder
- moved the hind legs apart so that femurs align with the "sockets" at each end of the pelvis block
>part the fifth
- note that laying out the skeleton is only one part of drawing the figure well, it must also be dressed well
- in this pic, the near hind leg has perfectly sound skeletal structure but its flesh is distorted and doesn't follow the skeletal guide much at all in the top half of the limb
- the stifle droops
- the buttock curve is overly full for a 3/4 view
- the front curve of the thigh should be shallower, as it is it makes the thigh + gaskin look like a singular, globular mass
- laid some lines for contours that follow the skeleton more faithfully
TBC
>>27634656
Thanks! Das ist ein cute pone.
>>27651004
>part the sixth
- all contours of all shapes should be sketched--you can always mask them out or whatever when inking, but failing to sketch the contours completely easily end up with missing overlaps and collision errors
- here I made the "invisible" parts of the contours thinner for clarity, but be as messy as you want, it doesn't matter as long as you can tell things apart
- far wing perspective follows the chicken wing's rotation, this is needed since due to the curving pose, we're looking at the front body nearly from the direct front
- note that the dock (the boney and fleshy part of the tail) is pretty short and the rest of the tail is hair--ponies can use their tails like extra limbs, but it's better to think of the tail and draw it like a mass of hair than a fleshy tube
- the dock is the dorsal-most part of the equine spine, and it's helpful to sketch in a guiding line from the end of the spine to keep tail connections in the realm of plausibility
the head was already pretty good, my only major points are:
- keep eye tilt diagonal and in the direction of a line drawn from the ear's base toward the chin
- eyes are the main feature of the head, it's important to get them decent
- mouth is located quite too high, making the upper half of the muzzle look like a flap
- simply lowering the shape does the trick, although here I also made it a bit larger (RD isn't one for dainty little expressions after all)
I didn't include the neck in my redline because it's fine here. For future purposes, do include the neck spine and contours in your sketches to keep the head connected in a plausible way
>>27651135
>final thoughts
- draw the entire skeleton to keep things connected
- get in the habit of posing and sketching the wings as naked "chicken" wings, feathers should be drawn in only after the bone positions are satisfactory--including the "flesh" in the wing helps with seeing and remembering rotations and perspective
- "chicken" wing technique also makes it easier to draw in-between or complicated poses
- make sure that legs join their corresponding support structures (shoulder blades/pelvis)
- take care to follow the skeletal guide you've constructed when dressing it up
- look at real horses for ideas and learns on what horse limbs can do and how they're shaped in various poses -- MLP pony legs are exactly like real horse legs, they're just dressed with tubes instead of realistic muscle and tendon.
(it is finished)
>>27650435
How good would you say these friends are?
Personally I let go of the idea of "being perfect" about a year ago. I'm more about the drawing process than the final result. I have high standards, of course, but I realized that I could only be myself and that its a steady process with plenty of bumps on the way. I let other artists inspire me instead of saying "I wish I could do that." I'm more on the thought process of "there's no doubt I can get there. It may just take a few years."
I can almost guarantee that even artists at very high skill levels have self-doubt and second-guess their work. They're always pushing their works and striving for that next level. The good ones do anyway.
>>27651205
One of them is no longer a friend, but I'll admit she's very skilled. For the time I knew her she would never be satisfied with her work even if it was absoultely breathtaking. The other is a little more used to not quite getting what he pictured, and is pretty satisfied with most of the art he makes, but doesn't post as much as he used to. It's all too common for artists, even superbly skilled ones, to doubt and second guess themselves, and not think they're at the skill level they are. I gave them a way to look at their art differently, and it helped some, but for it's still somewhat the same. The bottom line is that what we picture in our heads is the closest thing to perfection we have, and because of that we're never quite there in the end. Your mentality is a rare one, and a good one at that. There's no doubt that, with practice and time, you can get pretty damn close to what you imagined it looking like in your head.
I'm not sure if anyone has done this, but we're holding up an art advice thread over here >>27643046
>>27651310
I count myself pretty lucky to have that mindset honestly. I really owe it to the countless number of kind artists who give their advice out so freely on the likes of Youtube and of course the ones who I know personally. Its why I always try to give back to the community, no matter if its the pone art community. I always hope that anyone who begins to draw pone will use it as a stepping stone to broaden their art horizons a little. Because its no different than the aspiring artist who used to draw DBZ on the side of their notebooks in grade school. There a certain playfulness to drawing ponies that I love and I feel it can really be used as a tool for making better artists. Anyway that's enough rambling from me.

It's definitely good, but I think it needs to be more obvious that it's a griffon.
