Since the last thread died here's a new one.
Can anyone post horsepussy that's not the typical "u" shape? I need it for study.
>>143147I was paid to make that, shit tail and all.
>>143318Honestly if I were you I would never write my name on a pic of an edgy/alicorn/over the top OC. I did draw something like this for cash before, but I never published it as my own art, because it's humilating for me.
>>143318>>143145Tbh, if it weren't for the heterochromia, leonid tail, sweater (shirt but no pants pisses me off), the fact that she's a fucking alicorn, excess coloration, and everything else that makes her a stereotypical parody of a "speshul snowflake" deviantart OC, it wouldn't be that bad...
The skill is clearly there, it's just a joke of a concept.
I like the mane.
>>143145I am no expert on vectors but the atrocious design of the OC itself aside, this aint so bad of a vector. The pose is a little boring but that would be my only gripe.
>>143111I thought something was wrong. Have a pony.
>>143330Not bad. The body seems a little long though.
>>143330Qt, although suggesting her to about two heads wide and using some nice colour pencils. The legs are also a tad stubby, and the hindlegs look deformed. Take another shot at the guide.
>>143330Oh look; it's Fireaxe.
>>143336>>143337>>143357I think I got the body right. Legs still need work.
>>143371Have another!
>>143379contact a mod so you can get your australia flag back
>>143430You're getting there. Make the legs longer, the body more bean shaped and closer, and make the ears slightly maller.
>>143043Look back to this. Trace it if you want. Do it several times.
Any tips on how to improve this one?
>>143576Place the ankles higher, shorten the body, heighten the neck, and make underside of the muzzle the less fat.
>>143576She looks too chubby, too long, tail and mane too small, and there's almost no neck.
Tbh there's a lot of things to get better at, but don't get discouraged. Take your time and study how to draw pones. Personally I used whatsapokemon's tutorials.
Also, focus on simples things first, such as faces.
Don't be afraid to look at other drawings and get inspired by them.
I need to brush of my tablet and start drawing again (even thou I am a novice without much skill as of yet, or rather I should draw more because I am a novice without much skill).
>been much happening and I haven't taken the time to sit down and draw
I drew a Leslie after 3 weeks of not drawing
>>143690Stunningly Beautiful. Love it.
>>143690Lovely. It's been forever since that quality of OC has been seen here.
>>143690As her creator, I approve. She needs more quality art, since I'm a lazy faggot.
I tried drawing Leslie again. This time I used a screencap (pic 2) for reference. I'll color this and use pen on the outlines tomorrow (after some touch-up).
We have some unfullfilled request over on the Aryanne thread discord. It be nice if some of these can get done
Unfulfilled Requests:
-Luftkrieg Lewd
-Luftkrieg Stomach Grow
-Kyrie and Aryanne yelling at each other (Angry sex?)
-Human Aryanne here getting grabbed by her skirt while trying to run away from something, causing her to run in place?
-Birb pones
-More Luftkrieg
-Aryanne and the Alt Knight
-Luftkrieg being in a car seat being cute or just sleeping in it.
-Aryanne being cute
Thanks guys
>>143743If you're trying to copy that pic, the nose is supposed to be angled down (see 4-2), but yours is flat and horizontal so her jaw ends up really big
>>143758Yeah, posting both my drawing and the reference helped me compare them better than looking from one to the other. I'm also going to make the body shorter and adjust her front leg holding the pointer thing.
>>143753>Foalcon>Foalcon vore>Lesbianism>Depends on context, but could be >rapeGlad to see you never left your degenerate roots. Last 5 sound good and I want to see them.
>>143842those seem to be leftover art request from the aryanne thread that, in part, go all the way back to early 2017. i dont know who made them but most of them are so generic that they have already been fulfilled in some fashion.
>>143844How did you do that?
>>143845i joined a random youtube stream, wrote some emojis in the chatbar, copied them and pasted them here. I would support if we added an emoji bar into our own site database, but with a minor effort this does just as well.
>>143842I don't like vore
>>143843This is true, just relaying them here to see if anyone can get to them
>>143846Emojis is cancer thought
>>143848maybe, but pandoras box is now open. the emojis will blot out MLPOLs sun
>>143753>>143842>>143843I'm pretty sure "grow" was meant as "growl"
>>143850>This kills the argument
Another
>>143714Any requests?
also I feel there's a missed opportunity by not having her as a unicorn since unicorn is a business term
>>143928No ideas tbh. I myself have a pic to finish and I should finally make a refference sheet to standarize her appearance. Speaking of race, back when I created her, I noticed that a lot of political/country ponies were earth ponies, so I decided to follow the trend. Now I'm not sure about her race.
>>143928I want to rub that hoof more than anything right now.
>>143928Any of the OCs in the OCs thread.
I'm partial to Fireaxe and Happy Enning.
>>143938Also the ICE cop-pone.
>>143928Fireaxe needs some love. Nice work.
>>143928If you are up for it fireaxe needs some love.
>>143928Actually... Would you mind making a smug Leslie? I would be thankful.
>>143976a master of snekonomics
What does everyone think of Noire?
>>143992I like it, it's cool.
>>143992it looks really nice
>>143999I'm willing to do a request in the style. It's fairly easy and enjoyable to me.
>>144001How about something like this featuring fireaxe? Simple black and white could look cool, like entering a burning building at night or something.
>>144025The hind leg thighs are too thicc and the forehooves are too straight. If you keep the same proportions you probably also want to increase the head/neck size too. Otherwise not bad. Better than what I can do.
Dropping requests is viable? Coz I've been thinking if anyone can do an Anon version of this Memri with "By Celestia, you people are dogs (or swap it to changelings maybe?). I will go on as usual."
>>143928Can you draw cute nazi filly? Please?
>>143928>>144044>>144046CR, I dont recall seeing pictures from (You) here before. Are you new or did you just never post your art here before?
In any case, i like your works. Thats unironically some of the best independent content we had here in a while. I like the attention to detail you put in on the clothes and shadows, even the background. The Ponies themselves give me a lick a cat.
If you feel up for a challenge I offer you pic related. Lets see if you can transfer this into a horse format.
>>144046Thank you very much nice leaf boi.
I had few other ideas such as Leslie with Vietnam war era equipment and helmet with "Better dead than red" written on it or with "Kill a commie for Celestia" banner, but I don't wanna make you do them, because I already feel like a leech ;-;
>>144044>>144046Your artstyle is unreasonably cute. Saved.
>>144046>>144044Beautiful drawings
>>144061I've been here for like a month. I was posting stuff in the anonfilly thread before.
>>144048>>144064Sure, but I'm a little busy today so it might be a while
>>144232Pretty cute thanks!
>>144249Your output is phenomenal.
>>144249Not bad. Not bad at all.
>>144232>>144249They look Awesome!
>>143928Late but idea
Leslie in a helicopter holding a 1911 (9mm fags GTFO) to the back of Glimmer's head (with a hood over it) facing an open side door. Maybe put Aryanne piloting the chopper
>>144249God damn, Leaf. Day of the rake cancelled, period!
>>144061>The Ponies themselves give me a lick a cat.Is this a foreign idiom?
If anyone is bored then draw ebil version of the nice poner pls.
>>144044>>144046>>144232>>144249>>144405How are you so productive and why aren't you our official artist yet? Your beautiful and creative drawings show that a little shading can go a long way.
>>144436>how are you so productive?I suspect that it's because of his quite minimalist artstyle. Once you have some experience, you can make such pictures fairly quickly.
>>144436I'm glad you like them. I'm trying to expand my skillset but reading art books is so boring.
>>144501Yea it's a pretty simple style and I've been doing it for a long time. Every now and then I try something new though
>>144272Why would Leslie shoot a pony before throwing her out of a helicopter?
>>144044you made me smile like a retarded kid at a petting zoo. Nice work.
>>144545She wouldn't. Communists aren't Ponies
>>144705Zaldo, you need to practice anatomy.
>>144705shoulders are to wide looks like a man
the right boob has to face away from the torso and not towards the viewer
legs are too short
too much chicken scratching
5/10 I can see where you are aiming at
>>144705dunno if this makes any sense to you but just look at the lenth difference of the legs
>>144737Sorry but can't draw with the mouse so I guess I have to try to explain it with word.
The boobs point away from the torso in the same angle. This means the left boob points left and the right boob points right.
Both boobs point to the same side the way you've drawn it.
Female hips are commonly broader than their shoulders since they have to give birth. This is not the case in your drawing.
Her left leg (the one on the right) is really short in comparison to the other one.
>>144739Maybe I can give you a real redline and explaination once I get me setup ready and sober up.
Sorry for the shitty explaination.
>>144740no I totally get what you're saying I actually noticed most of that but I had ,already spent like an hour on it so i decided to just fix it on the next one I really appreciate your insight
>>144741glad I could be of help
keep working on it
>>144743I'm doing request every day on /utg/ on /vg/ if you ever want to request or whatever
>>144421>>>144272this one is taking me a little while
>>144825Another saved. You are like an art machine.
>>144272Why would you pay for both the helicopter ride and the bullet?
>>144825You are the best and I love you. I'm gonna get back into music production just so I can make things for you guys.
>>144825This is ebil poner.
Could somepony make Leslie fair rubbing her hooves?
>>144825Hey leaf, do you do lewds?
y'all ever get a boner while drawring?
>>145185Credit where due, at least you're constructively shitposting
>>144272I tried
twice>>145068I've made suggestive drawings before but I prefer not to.
>>145185go back to /ic/ and actually follow the wiki
>>145194Continued magnificence.
>>145194whitey loves her job
>>145194I love the expression on Aryanne's face. You can tell she's having fun.
>>145185Have you tried reading loomis?
>>145656I'm seeing steady improvements. Nice!
>>145656Much better than before, although the butt isn't really round, and I think that the neck might be a tiny little bit higher.
>>145194Seventy-Twelve out of Ten
>>145740H-hot... and thanks, will make a good use of it.
Wish I hadn't been on hiatus from drawing. Feels like I am at square one again, and I probably am. But it is fun getting started again.
>>145812I hate starting over.
Drawing with references makes everything easier though.
>>145185Your sketches are really messy.
You could use this as a guide and make a second, clean version.
General advice:
Draw very lightly.
Do ghostlines. (Do the line you want to draw a few times without the tip of the pen touching the paper.)
Practice circles and lines. Every day 1-2 pages of straight lines over the complete length of the page and 1-2 pages of circles and ovals in various sizes.
The first few chapters of "draw a box" are very helpful with this.
To the awesome Canadian guy who drew Leslie, if you're still doing requests, it'd be really awesome if you drew Leslie getting her belly rubbed.
>>146617that's bretty gud
I drew this as a tribute to Otoya Yamaguchi. The OC with the sword is Mitsuko. Hopefully I didn't fuck up proportions and anatomy too badly.
>>147977Love it, it truly captures the facial expressions.
>>147977A true hero, and a very nice tribute.
>>147977Glimglam's snout looks too short, gives her face kind of a squished appearance. That's the only thing I can see, and it's still much better than anything I could draw. Nice work.
>>147977Nice.
Ask yourselves, why haven’t you saved YOUR country from communism?
>>149659This is the best thing I've seen all day.

A little sketch to start off the month
ponies are so easy to draw how the fuck do you struggle with drawing these tubes of meat?
>>150840Lack of confidence.
>>150844not an excuse faggot
>>150845Also lack of trying.
>>150847I'm just fucking with you, man.
>i draw ponies because i failed at anatomy and life
>>150989Be careful with that pipe Leslie, Mr. Rusty is prowling around and is looking for "Smokes".
>>150989Commander Aryanne!
>>151011>>151013Why did I think and say Leslie? What is wrong with me?
I am sorry Aryanne, forgive me.
>>150840Draw one faget, let us see.
>>151996Randy is amused. Good find, Anon. If you have a way to identify the creator, let us know. We might have some work for him.
I never got the tail right nor the body so I figured I should just post what I had and move on. Hopefully next one will be better.
>>152121Reeeeeeee... forgot the legs (on "other" side)
I want to cum inside Leslie Fair
>>152263But wouldn't that violate the NAP?

Anyone have requests? I have no ideas.
>>152566Pony driving 50s retro flying car
>>152568I don't have much experience drawing vehicles, but I'll give it a shot
>>152572No worries, just wanted to give you a different/unusual request.
But another image that could be fun is a take on "Pony creationist" where you have a pony riding a dinosaur.
>>152566Applebloom hiding beneath her bed in the middle of the night as a changeling walks in.
Here's a pone in a flying car
>>152607Love it.. Anonfilly looks so happy and ecstatic.

>>153729Idk the original artist but I wanna color it like my last jojoke
I feel like I'm a bit out of practice in regards to drawing ponies. How do you guys think this turned out?
>>155015I think it turned out Beautiful.
Hopefully I will get time to draw more next month, bump with new "drawings" (attempts at drawings), as I will be at low speed internet so no distractions

>>156135Equestria probably has hearts warming day as their national celebration. Also nice pic.

>>156414draw aryanne teaching anon filly how to be a good natsoc.

Does someone has any requests?
I promisse some better quality!
>>157291With all that's going on lately, I think that the ICE pony OC could use a bit of love.
>>157291Mai Gaia and Happy Enning are lighting some fireworks. Mai asks "Are these safe?" and Happy replies "I have no idea!" gleefully.
>>157295ICE should definitely be showed some more love.
>>157295S-sorry i didn't see the post and i ended up drawing something else waiting..
..Drawing her took a little longer than i expected
>>157304Ill start this one right up!
>>157321Lovely. Thank you.
>>157321Not bad!
But Aryanne's eyes are freaking me out
Ok, that took a while
Well i have to sleep now, night anons!
>>157351Billiant.
Goodnight Anon. Thanks for the work.
I was originally doing a much bigger image but I decided to break it up into smaller parts and I'd hate to see it go to waste so here's a Leslie that I couldn't be assed to draw properly
>>157540I love it. It feels reminiscent of Hotdiggedydemon's style.
>>157540Kek. The style suits her perfectly.
I'm back to draw poners, anyone has requests?
I should probably practice a bit more
>>157597Well, if you feel lucky i suggest You draw one of these (or several) reaction face images with a MLPOL pony of your choice(s).
Good Luck, Rwanda Anon!
>>157597Do something for Fireaxe, the cover pony of /mlpol/ Right Wing Safety Squads
(which will totally be a thing).
>>157598I was going for pic 3 and 5 but ended up making a whole thing
>>157599Fireaxe wasn't prepared for this kind of heat
>>157540I don't usually like to go back to make edits but for this one I'll make an exception to adjust some minor things
>>157678Kek. Didn't realize she didn't have any bullets.
Now if only she could pull the trigger.
>>157679precisely why I didn't draw the massive trigger guard required
>>143043Dear diary, today i drew a lot of boxes.

Leslie paraphrasing a line from Scarface. I'll color this after I get some sleep.
>>158469I like your drawings anon, theres something about them, cant really tell what..
Drawing poners is hard, there's something i'm always missing.
Anyways, here's hans.
>>143043Edit thread when?
>>159088we have 2 draw threads, this one and one for MLPOL characters. so far the edits were done in either of those. Action is not always warrented since people sometimes edit those before we even have a chance to see the original.
>>143327>>143328Thank you! Someone paid me money to make that. And then he played the "Make that hair bit longer. No longer. No shorter. No longer. That's too long. Can you make her orange? Oranger. More saturated. Now make her white again. Now make her legs longer and make the shaded legs unshaded because idk lol" for a few minutes every few days over the course of a month before I could finally post the thing I was already paid for.
ALWAYS ASK FOR PAYMENT UP-FRONT, LADS.
Any Aryanne-related requests? I'll take non-Aryanne requests too but I feel like drawing Aryanne.
>>160432Aryanne gassing some griffions,while adolf sheds a tear of happiness in the clouds.
>>160442Here's this. Might color it in later.
Returning from the grave to post more mediocre attempts at pone. Tell me how I did.
>>160507Beautiful.
>>1612018/10, the legs could be thicker.
>>161201Lovely, could have had a bit more meat on hind legs (but anatomy is not my strong suit).
Other than that the expressions you manage to capture and convey are amazing.
>>143043I made this, rate my pony.
>>161215I like it. One thing that confuses me thou. Her hair says evil, but her expression and tail says good.
>might be that I have become a bit preconditioned by Disney on what evil looks like, and that plays in my perception
>>161215Funny.
>>161226Also this.
>>161226That's Super Saiyan hair, ya dingus.
>>161232>>161226Thanks, it's what I was going for. Spikes at the front, roselike curls at the back, she's from an evil high-class magically powerful family, but she wants to be a good person.
>>161215>>161235Honestly, it's not bad. I'd rate it about an 8 to an 8.5.
More polka dot mare, but this time she brought a friend. Rate me on a scale of penile inversion to raging bone stone.
>>161566That's a weird benis
>>161569This.
>>161566The penis is not supposed to be crooked.
>>161566What is wrong with your penis, anon?
>>162618This was the idea. Now that I actually look at it I can see that is isn't executed very well and just looks odd, especially without knowledge of the intended product. Will try to improve.

I tried drawing Franziska with a reference to Doctor Krieger from Archer. Not sure if it works as well with hooves though, since it's harder to tell what they are. Going to color it tomorrow, might just switch it to being hands.
I did end up making it hands, since I thought it worked better. Also, Franziska has strawberry jelly on her face, as often happens in the pursuit of science.
>>163089Never mind, that was the Australian version.
>>163090not bad, Franziska seems to be a good fit for Doktor Krieger.
but where did she get human hands...?
>>163091Oh you know. Here and there.
Can someone provide redlines for me? Im trying to improve my form but the angles never work out how I imagine it.
Also, can someone give me linearting advice? It seems the sketch always looks better before I line it...
>>163090I love it.
Franziska a cute.
>>163303its a pretty basic pose, but what sticks out to me is the back legs are in a different perspective than the front legs. you should sketch with more volume
Luftkrieg enjoying some delicious cake
Can I get /ic/? Specifically on the form and shape of the face, cheeks, eyes, snoot, ears, hair.
>>163645thats really good
10/10
>>163441Cute is the right word
>>163645Love it.
I can't really draw so I don't know how to explain it r give good feedback as you asked for. But one small think the hair at the front (back rightmost tip) should perhaps be a bit more down, or add an extra spike in between to tow large spikes at the front. But I think it is a really good drawing.
>>163645U dun good anon. Maybe the neck is long, but that's a super stingy criticism
>>163441>>163645both look cute. I am glad our drawfags are making visible progress on their works.

>>143201got anymore real horse puss references?
>>163303>Almost a month after asking for a redline and adviceNot an update on the big piece but well since I'm going to be here more often for now..
1. In general You should draw more with your shoulder instead of your wrist and make more sweeping motions to connect the forms. For example for the chest and belly you can just sketch straight through the legs. Drawing with your shoulder will help you with your lineart as well.
2. Practice doing basic stuff like spheres, tubes and beans. They're all essential for making ponies look like they have volume. I attached a little example of what I did on the side.
3. The front legs are okay just could use some tweaking, but the back legs knee's are too high up. They're about halfway down the pony like seen on the Celestia reference. You should grab any reference you can if you dont know the subject you're drawing well enough. I just googled 'Celestia standing' and stuck it to the side.
4. Watch your silhouettes, the tail is getting in the way of the legs here. I redlined over that in a different color so you can see it clearly. The hair pony tail is nice, but I'd emphasize it a bit more.
That's all that needs to be gone into detail, the rest is just some adjustments to proportions and features. It's very loose but that's how I sketch. It's more important to get an understanding of these things into your head than crisp thin lines. It looks like you work in traditional, so just do general construction sketches in light pencil and erase it later on.
>>166819I only did wut mlpol wanted q.q
>>167268I like Rem, but I do think Vlad is a bit redundant. He makes sense, but as a background character for Rem, rather than a stand-alone OC. I'm stll waiting on Rem's poetry about the rhythmic sound of muslim blood dripping in the silence after a battle.
>>167270Ill need to work on that. Vlad really isn't a stand alone, he's either always around Rem or Ice as it is
>>167688This hair is awful. I suggest drawing a lot of sketches and looking at refs and maybe even tutorials because I haven't seen much progress from you.
>>167688I like this style.
>>167737Alright, I tried to fix the mane
>>167737This. The hair always looks lifeless and far too short for a mane. It seems like something that you'd see on Chris-chan's or James Fieds' head. These are not human manchildren, they're horses with manes.
>>167774That actually looks way better that way.

>>168797I wanna see this unironically.
Am not a zald. My feels hurt now
>>168808Check the flag of the anon you're talking to. Mods give the rainbow flag to Zald's proxies.
>>168811Ahh... now I feel a dumb. I gotta be on more often
>>168810Don't take it personally. Plenty of people have been accused of being Zald, he's just that persistent. As long as ur not a faggot, ur good.
>>168817Honest to god read the name so many times that I couldn't forget it if I tried. Who exactly IS this Zald guy?
>>168830Zald is one of several lolcows polluting MLPOL and arguebly the oldest internal one next to GR15DF. He appeared here shortly after our founding and never really left. hes not a community member though and has a hatred for nonliberal viewpoints.
Zaldo himself is a homosexual dramacow from a pony streamign website who got into trouble with other regulars over general spergy, which escalated when someone leaked nudes of his behind. for some reason he figured this was all MLPOLs fault, who was partially using that service at the time and later followed them here. He gets banned and made fun of on a regular basis and is arguebly the most reoccuring troll and bait thread maker in this place. Theres not much too him besides that other than that he is easy to bait himself. If you see a gay pride flag that means the mods are goading him again.
also i should add that he - undeservingly - became sort of a local humeme himself. whenever people see general low quality posting, bait posting, stupid questions or fag enabler content they often quickly (and usually rightfully) get accused of Zaldposting/being Zald.
Zaldposting is unsurprisingly largely frowned upon and quickly leads to the thread getting deleted, the acused one being banned or the thread getting derailed, which large amounts of anti-zald posting. (which can take different shapes but is usually easy to spot) one example would be the sudden appearance of gay pride flags or unwarranted amounts of Penis Garfield spam.
>>168865If he posted his shit in /sp/, it wouldn't get deleted
>>168865Yeah those Garfield penis shoops are, uh...really somethin'.

>>173809Yep, it is quite malformed. Been a long pause from drawing and I'm back at scratch.. Also mainly a little experiment in drawing using the curve tool to draw lines.

A little backstory for Fireaxe and little logo design update for Safety Squad
I see Fireaxe as a passionate firefighter thriving on saving any ponies' lives, no matter their political compass, but is wrongfully vilified by left wings because their DIY spaces are the prime sources of fire hazards. She would often be misunderstood due to her unfortunate team name acronym and her cutie mark. She would also have conflicting ideology with Aryanne, as Aryanne would rather let commies burn, than save them.
Honestly, "leftists are stupid, assuming everyone to be nazis with false dilemma" argument will only works if Fireaxe is not far-right herself.
>>175558Also, I really had no idea an axe was symbol of Fascism when designing her cutie mark and name
>>175558New Fireaxe OC?! This week just keeps getting better.
>>175559It really isn't that much. That was mostly wishful thinking; for meme-related purposes.
>>175558>>175559>altering Fireaxes Helmet Symbol and behavior to appease centrismUnless you are the original creator of these characters consider yourself disavowed, Anon. This seems to conflict with the source material of the RWSS threads the character is based upon. I have heard rumors before that the original creator of the RWSS ponies is afraid of publicly associating with the characters. I consider retroactively neutering your content to be motivated by cowardice.
If you can prove ownership over these design i strongly suggest you get into contact with regulars of the RWSS thread to synchronize before you attempt any changes that may lead to disassociation.
>>175561He very clearly implied that he was her creator, even stated when
he designed her.
>>175562I am ware of that. In that case he should have no problems to produce evidence for his claims.
>>175563It's the same style too mate
>>175561He is the creator. His art style is telltale.
He created Fireaxe within the first few weeks of this site's history.
I wholeheartedly respect why he'd want to draw distinctions for what he intended (or didn't intend) Fireaxe to represent, because his political views may be misrepresented by association.
In the weeks after I uploaded his earliest pictures to derpibooru, I came to a grim realization that the association with fascism/Nazism that were prevalent in the SS symbol of the safety squads, that DB may have discouraged him from drawing Fireaxe in the future, and I welcome him to draw her as a politically neutral character.
In the end, RWSS is about fire safety; despite the political motivations of those who participated in the threads for shutting down anarchist drug dens.
>>175565>>175564He could be Matt Furie for all I care. Its a bit late for having second thoughts 1,5 years in after drawing mascot chatracters for a fascism associated website. I am not directly associated with the RWSS but I would not take such a heelturn if i was in the same position. It*s not like we had a lot of presense for this content of even any of these ponies here recently, but this is just a scumbag move to be honest.
>>175563He absolutely is Fireaxe's creator. The New Zealand flag is proof enough
(which is actually why I agreed with giving posters the option to hide flags).
When I tagged his pictures of her on derpibooru, he politly requested that i remove his name tag, because he didn't want users to think he was a fascist, or otherwise give liberals a reason to badger him in the comments section.
I can only imagine that after the Shinodage pic depicting the Shower scene of the /mlpol/ football team, he would have been motivated to state that he did not intend (or at least not unironically) Fireaxe to be a staunchly fascist symbol, despite her still being one of the longest lasting OCs to be associated with /mlpol/.
>>175567>He absolutely is Fireaxe's creator.>pic depicting the Shower scene of the /mlpol/ football team, he would have been motivated to state that he did not intend (or at least not unironically) Fireaxe to be a staunchly fascist symbol,You dont say. so this is a whitewashing action to save his own reputation after he forgot about the character. Would be a shame if people found out his name and explicitly drew Fireaxe as a hardcore nazi now, wouldnt it.
>>175566While I see your point in that original artists cannot choose how memers will appropriate their characters, I still think it's perfectly fair for him to try to distance himself from anything political that may come of his OCs use.
I was part of the /rwss/ threads. When Right Wing Safety Squads are a play on RWDS, they're not exactly the same thing. I believe that a character who represents firefighters can still continue to be associated with RWSS
(if I can ever get a thread going...),even if the original artist make a statement to distance himself from any political arguments.
>>175568Anyone who tried could tell it's his OC with 3 minute DB; he's rather well known in the community. He just didn't want to deal with the bullshit that would follow after people inevitability connected the dots to assiciste the Firefighting pony with the schutzstaffel on her forehead with his own artwork.
>>175568You can draw his OC however you like, but nothing he has done merits doxxing. It's not "whitewashing" because Fireaxe doesn't represent a position hostile to our views. She's just a dutiful pony who got caught in the crossfire of SJW busybodies, representing a large and growing section of nor/mlp/eople.
Also, I find it much pithier in using the iconography of a regular character ironically rather than simply having another 14/88 character. It's more of an inside joke that others will miss.
>>175568>You dont say. so this is a whitewashing action to save his own reputation after he forgot about the character.I wouldn't say that. He originally made Fireaxe for this community, on this site, and I thank him greatly for that.
At the same time, i'm fairly certain that he's not a /pol/ack, and I understand if he'd want to say that Fireaxe wasn't entirely intended to be a Nazi or fascist or whatever people may associate the "SS" on her hat with; but just the fire Safety initiative, which he seemed very supportive of when he made her.
>>175583..Or maybe I may be reading into things slightly too much...
Either way, I can say that I can appreciate this Fireaxe just as much, if not more, than as she's been depicted in the past. There hasn't actually been very much art or green of her in the first place, and I don't think what Anon posted above really changes her personality at all, as I imagined her demeanor.
>>175561>the original creator of the RWSS ponies is afraid of publicly associating with the charactersIt was mostly because I wasn't confident about owning up to a political character(on top of political backlashes)
But if she's less about political agendas and more about following moral rights with acts of vigilante, I would be more proud to associate with Fireaxe. To be honest, it was the act of doing the right thing that brought me into rwss in the first place.
Also, I brought up the same topic an year ago, and anons were quite supportive with it back then.
https://mlpol.net/mlpol/archive/res/69508.html#73469>>175565Took the words out of my mouth
Also, I really appreciated you respecting my anonymity, thank you>>175566That's fair point too, especially with Streisand effect and all.
But with not much backstories set up for Fireaxe so far, I can still throw my hats in for her character design, not as an artist, but as an anon.
>>175568...Why am I getting a vibe of Tumblr, that drove an artist to suicide for drawing a character too skinny?
I mean, I strongly believe in freedom of speech, so I am supportive on defending your own ideology and also criticising others' ideology.
But wrongfully aligning other's political view would just be framing. It's exactly how liberals see firefighters as.
...kinda feels like I kicked a hornet's nest here;;
>>175595Nah, KrautAnon just jumped the gun and thought you were trying to pull a Matter Furie or something.
I love your OC btw, and I'm glad to see her again.
>>175558>>175559Your change in the OC is understandable, as it has already been said. Changing the runic symbols is understandable given the context. In fact, this adds some characterization by constantly being misidentified as a Nazi which I appreciate. However, I will correct you on the axe as a fascist symbol. By itself, it has nothing to do with fascism or Nazism. A Fasces, or bound bundle of wooden rods, sometimes including an axe with its blade emerging can be fascist, but is not explicitly. It is a old Roman symbol of strength, which is used by governments, like pic related.
>>175595Not really, it's just the usual autism.
>>175111I shall enhance the image

MK is a the Matt Fury of pony artists and a cuckhold.
MK probably has some lofty, little-minded gripe against the NSDAP oe Neofascists that irks his liberal sentimentality." -
t. fellow artist and content creator.Also i was asked to link you this on the topic of bookburnings.
https://archive.fo/n584iBook Burning – Allied Book Pulping and ‘Re-Education’ Compar.
https://archive.fo/7IhXyThe 'Nazis' did not burn books - that is more fake history
>>175606>Also i was asked to link you this on the topic of bookburnings.Who's asking this, and what is going on? Is this just drama bull, or is it something that actually matters?
>>175606On the subject of "book burning", there was once an 'evil', book-burning, alternate-universe version of Fireaxe edited, who was supposed to be the stand-in for Guy Montag, the protagonist of the boon "Farenheight 451". A couple of Anons in the OC creation threads floated around the subject of SJWs being book-burners who desire the destruction of anything that hurts their feelings; one of those Anons suggested a green about the alternate Fireaxe, as Guy Montag, being a 'FireMare' responsible for burning books and quashing freedom of expression, before realizing the dystopian nature of the society she lived in and redeaming herself.
The green never got written in the end though, probably due to a slump in board activity. A few weeks with that period some Anons also posted a group-reading of the book to /ub/, although that lacked participation as well.
>tl;Dr, Fireaxe would be against book-burning of any kind, and her alternate universe self is an SJW who's profession is antithetical to freedom of expression.
>>175607Otherdrawfag. Reaction to this controversy. I have no knowledge if and what kind of history these 2 people have.
>>175611Thank you. Drama for the sake of drama is useless. Understanding and background potentially makes it useful.

Outsider's perspective: This "controversy" is retarded. I can understand not wanting to be considered a Nazi, if your political views weren't actually in line with national socialism. I imagine Ancaps want to reee when people say they're Nazis, for example.
Fireaxe is a cute poner. She dindu nuffin.
>t.American National Socialist/Capitalist
>>175705Can confirm, I would reeeeeee if I was called a Nazi.
And no it's not for the reason of hatred of Nazi's, I just don't want my beliefs known as NatSoc.
>>175705> National Socialist/Capitalistnot to be mean anon but you realize it's not really an either or scenario with these they're pretty definitively opposed to one another
also fireaxe is obviously a utilitarian, fire safety is the most utilitarian thing ever
>>175767Not as much as you think. The only difference between them is that National Socialism is focused more on social reform while National Capitalism is focused more on the free market.
>>175791the "Free" market allowed jews to take over.
>>175801That's what the "National" part is for. Creating a cultural bulwark to guard against any and all foreign influences, including the Jews.
>>175705I'm an ancap and I get a chuckle when someone calls me a Nazi, but that's because I have a troll mentality and I unironically like
Mein Kampf. That's what I expect from leftists and I have nothing to lose.
MK is a well-known DB artist so I can understand why he's being aloof about it. As long as he doesn't try to sabotage his work like Matt Furie tried I really don't care what he says.
>>175653Alright, I can finally stop having my messages relayed by a German, and call you a cuck myself. Yeah, I agree that a drama would be stupid, so it never was a dramatic conflict in the first place. I never talked to MK ever, I still have whatever form of respect I had for him, and my investment in this situation is pretty low. At worst, I was being mocking because I found this turn of event stupid and funny. Like, I can laugh at a dumb book burning joke, but the real joke is MK. The length he goes to coverup his involvement with Fireaxe is equivalent to hiding that you're a faggot when you have cum on your face. The evidence is right there! It's so stupid, and is so asinine in attempt that it fucks up the character design here
>>175558. He's going that far with those fugly patches! It's funny. I don't really have any investment in this, I can say that again, but it looks the comments I made ruffled feathers and I have to explain myself. Not that I didn't expect it. I just didn't care that my friend wanted to post those comments. Maybe this can be a message to MK.
You know, MK. People like Shino or KanashiiPanda make Aryanne art without people questioning that they are Nazis. It won't affect them just as it won't affect your 15 minutes of pony fame. In all honesty, it just makes you seem insincere. Like you have something to hide, when you are already hiding something to other people. And, the people that know & enjoy the character are not going to get anything out of it. The people you are hiding it from will know when you introduce it. That's to say people don't know.
>>175705>I imagine Ancaps…Those really don't exist.
>I can understand not wanting to be considered a Nazi, if your political views weren't actually in line with national socialism.Except it isn't about that. Even if the artist wants it to be about that. He could just say, "I disassociate". It's about the imagery and the message. Fireaxe means nothing without the SS. With one, you think 'rightwing firefighter wtf'. You don't have to look any further, but if you do, that higher sense of morality that MK wants to imply
>>175590 here can already be read into. If someone wants to interpret otherwise; there's no problem with that. That's the brilliance of an open ended character. Removing the SS sacrifices visual clarity for political correctness. Which really is just cuckoldry. There was a solid design that didn't have to be changed. Maybe MK could have been more subtle by make the SS not Sieg Runes, but he just had to make a statement too. preddy gay
>>175705If you don't know Yockey, Pelley, Metzger, or even Pierce; get the fuck out, dumb burger. Even Rockwell meant his support for 'free markets' as an appeal, not policy.
>>175805Europe had a strong cultural bulwark too. Dumb cuck.
The last two posts were unrelated. This ends my reply.
>>175559>book burning fire hazardthe books burned were literal tranny propaganda. By burning it, those brave students saved the west from trannies for another 70 years. That, and the allies burned way more nazi books then the nazis ever did tranny books from the Institute of Sex Research, and it wasn't even done by the political party, but instead students of the nearby university.
>>175590That's not really what I see happening, it's more of a poke of irony in the form of pointing out damage in what seems to be damage control.
...having said that,
>>175606, ad hominim is not an argument, you eternal drama-nigger. Quoting a personal conversation where insults are thrown around freely adds no credibility, especially since it didn't even come from you. You don't convince someone who wants to disassociate to stop being an idiot by calling them a lolcow.
>>175624Drama makes you a cuck. I bet you suck DSP's dick every stream. Enablers like you is why these cancer fucks are able to continue to exist.
>>175791>>175805>NatCap is more focused on the free market>natcapism gets into power>kick the jews out>but what about all their degenerate porn?>let the free market decide>everyone's still a degenerate>wow, it's almost like a policy centered around the free market lead to shit like this in the first place, because it's just that exploitableCultural bullwark only works by changing what the people consume. Using it as a cop-out for the failures of a solely free market is just dumb. It doesn't matter what kind of "cultural bullwark" pagans had, the Christians won in the end. It doesn't matter what you try to create, propaganda will win the lemmings if allowed to operate under an equal playing field.
>>175860>those don't really existpoint remains with lolbertarians or even alt-right "based isrealite".
>Maybe MK could have been more subtle by make the SS not Sieg Runes, but he just had to make a statement too. preddy gayThis. MK, you can draw whatever you want, but the criticism remains. It's like drawing a nice femme pony that gets well liked by everyone, and then sticking a dick on it because you don't wanna associate with heterosexuality. This is like that, but inverse.
>>175897>you can draw whatever you want, but the criticism remains. It's like drawing a nice femme pony that gets well liked by everyone, and then sticking a dick on it because you don't wanna associate with heterosexuality. This is like that, but inverse.Yeah, that's fair point.
Then, just consider

Digital art is confusing the fuck out of me
pls halp
I recently Purchased for free a copy of illustrator and managed to acquire a very inexpensive Wacom for the hell of it and because I figured it would be easier to make myself draw more, even though its been a while since I've tried my hand at it and I never was particularly good.
problem is, that even though I tend to pick up the basic concepts pretty easily I slam into a wall because I have no idea how illustrator works or what a good layout/workflow is with it.
case in point that second image without the fill. I made a mess of the layers somehow and couldn't figure out an effective way to fix it.
Could I have a more experienced artfag give me a really quick rundown on the most useful parts of A.I. and how they typically work?
for example:
for filling v.s. outlining which brush tool do you typically use?
how do you normally structure your layers?
I've heard that people hold the pen differently. Is that true and if so, how do you hold it?
etc.
will probably be frequenting these threads though. there really isn't anywhere better to actually ask people abut this kind of thing desu...

Any of y'all have recommendations for drawing pads and programs for a noob?
Not going pro I just wanna draw images that appear in my mind.
>>189467https://krita.org/en/I have not used it myself, but looks good
>>189476>Image 1Thanks mate.
>>189484No problem I actually really like how it turned out
>>189487Draw bigger and use colored pens/ink it over.
>>189467If you're looking for graphics tablets, I'd honestly just avoid Wacom. They are far too expensive for what they offer. I'm gonna shill xp-pen here, but from what I hear Huion isn't that bad, either.
If you're unsure about dropping the big bux on something that you may never really get into, you can get a small tablet for $50 or less. Otherwise, if you already know you'll be using it lots, there are also bigger, more capable tablets, including ones with displays.
For instance, you can get a high quality 13 inch display tablet for $300. A 13 inch Wacom display tablet is $700. The difference beyond that, from what I can tell, is negligible.
>>189558Is there a fic to this nervous nilly?
>le shitty drawn comic about lethal cuteness
>>195276And that's how the epidemic started. There aren't many of us left, and our numbers dwindle by the day.
>>195301Kek
Equestria is no place for the faint of heart
Drawing ponies is still hard
>>195316You eventually get the hang of it
>>195316It will always be hard but pony makes it worth it
Took my shot at griffonifying an A. Wyatt Mann classic
>>197687Love it my dude! REally, funny and good.
But why are their two swastikas instead of one and why does this simple symbol all rebelious kids learn to etch into their benches in school look so bad? Are you implying that Griffons can't use spraycans?
>>197688I thought having the swastikas look stupid and messed up would make it more comedic
here's my latest drawing.
>>198312Now that is a horse I would fuck.
>>198312So how does it taste?
>>201487Interesting style.
I love how you did the eyes.
Welcome.
>>201487Not bad Cherosk. pretty cute.And she has a nice bottox as well.
>>202442This looks pretty amazing Anon. I like the effort you put into the uniform.
If any of you is interested, feel free to join the Aryanne Discord. We are always looking out for new content creators.

My brain has been telling me to try drawing again recently so here I am. Decided to try some lewd for the first time.
Anyone willing to criticize my art?
>Inb4 add a body
>>208577>"Anon, help! I got stuck in the mattress again while putting my money away!"I like it. Can't find any serious criticisms on my part.
>>201487>>202442Nice
>>208577Left leg looks a little funny. Other then that pretty good.
Any tips on how I could make this pic better?
>>214364Pretty good. However, the human legs are a bit wonky and lack proper joints. The hands also don't have visible depth or thumbs, appearing to bend oddly from the wrist. Also, the tail with its length and shape looks like it originates from Leslie's thigh rather than the center.
But hey, I'm no artfag and I couldn't draw nearly so well as this. I love the eyes btw.
Been a while since I did some Aryan pony art.
>>218893shit anon that's really good.
>>218952Fucking epic dude!
>>218952That is Awesome!!
If I had a tablet I would make a drawing stream. You know something like this,
[YouTube] Speedpaint 5: Luna - It's so good to be home
[Embed] but you know in real-time. But honestly, I am not that good and it would probably be more intresting if someone with more talent and skill did it. You know who you are.
I would love to see that.
>>219157I've seen your art, you certainly have some talent. I would send you my old one that I have no need for anymore, but the pen pressure is wonky and I doubt you'd want to doxx yourself.
>>219237Offer is open if you want to set up a PO box though.
>>219157
>>219655>>219237Thanks a lot. This sort of generous offer makes me feel obligated to actually do something.
I will decline your offer though because I can afford a tablet if I really want to buy one and I also have an old one home at my Mom's place.
>>219961We have Lina.
Only two pics of her exist though.
I've been working on art some more
For people that are willing to/can help, I'm doing pencil sketches and decided to digitize this one... Using a mouse, so it's not great.
The things I know that I did wrong:
>Her hoof is too short/thin
>the stallion's body
>mane/horn placement/perspective
>shading/coloring
Any advice would be appreciated, I've been working on my art.
>>223183Not too bad, keep at it
>>223208Based and applepilled
I'm ponifying this with Aryanne. I'll use griffons for Jews, but what race should I use for Christians?
>>223410I suggest dragons, but Yaks could work too
>>223411Thanks. It's done.
>>223414Absolute QT, you'd inspired me to ponify one of my fave Memri bits.
>>228327Nice work. Saved.
did some stuff a while back for my oc because I was bored
Might as well repost this thing I did for the /pol/eague, here.
>>229204Looks awesome. Love it.
>>230769Never been a fan of these games for obvious reasons. Nice work, Choccy! Comes even with politcal commentary as well.
>>229200Thanks for the repost, Anonymousdrawfig. I like Blitzflügel, hope to see more of her in the future. I put all of your images in the OAT Update of May i think.
>>229204Probably the best version of this picture yet. Do you have any plans on coloring this, Anon?
>>230772Possibly, though my current options are limited to some colored pencils I've had since I was a kid, or seeing if I can borrow some fairly fancy markers from a relative.
>>230769>>230772I hear there's a DOOM WAD out there that replaces all the demons with niggers and similar monsters. Only heard of it because some faggot journalist whined about it. Pretty sure it was in an Extra Credits video on "Propaganda Games", the same one where the narrator calls it "Funny and hypocritical" that his USA Military friend loved an American Army recruitment game that teaches skills or tests skills or something, but hated the ISIS recruitment game he was shown.
>>230772Glad you you like, Krautanon. I hadn't intended politcal commentary (TBH I mostly goof around) but that's a nice bonus.
>>230786Assuming you don't have a tablet Burgeranon, have you considered digital + mouse? Shoot, it's not only how I started out but one of my favourite artists, Cybersponge, STILL uses it after a all these decades:
http://nsfw-comix.com/nsfw497.htmTheres neat free, open source apps like Krita & GIMP that have all sorts of neat stuff like line tools and such.
It's not the smoothest of work flows but you can get nice results with a little patience.
>>230802Yes my fellow Nigel, thats the Moon Man Mod. Lots of fun & genuinely good gameplay wise. You even get to play Ben Garrison with a Brown Bess rifle & Hitler in his Quad-chaingun mech suit.
Unfortunately, the Doom modding community is pretty POZed and has shunned it. I couldn't attach the PK3 but heres a link to it:
www.mediafire.com/file/47bsdg96m9xju8i/Moon_Man_v1_1.pk3
Also, I knew Extra Credits was AIDSPIG shit from the start.
>>230817Watching their "Fighting games are hard. Therefore, fighting games should erase your mistakes, slow time down/pause it for you, give you a multiple choice question with one right answer, and help the elderly win in story mode! Fighting games will never be good unless they help us poor oppressed folk get good at them!" video made me realize they were full of shit.
A game isn't obligated to make you good at it, just as a book isn't obligated to explain every last one of its themes to you so you can look smart talking about it with others. Bad tutorials are bad tutorials, sure, but it's on you to learn and git gud at any game you really want to learn, be it Football, Rugby, Cricket, or Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 Hyper Turbo Rainbow Nigger Edition.
Leftists just want to easily win everything. They don't care about the challenge or earning victory, they want to look like winners and compensate for what fucking losers they are.
here's some twiggy I drew
>>233480Nice, I like her generally accurate proportions! Too many otherwise good drawings from the rear have what look like short, stubby legs, but this seems to have a good sense of proportion. Her head's a little too big for the distance but otherwise I can't find much to nitpick.
Thumbs up!
Could you draw pony like pic related, pls? Not many drawings have this kind of position depicted.
>>23348010/10 would put my face between those Purple buns and squeeze them together
I'm curious if anyone here would be interested in contributing some character sprites for a visual novel I'm working on, based on a story I wrote last year for this site's NaNoWriMo thread. The game is kind of meant to be lo-fi and shitty-looking on purpose so it's ok if the drawings are not great, but I do need them to be in color and in a PNG format with transparency. The backgrounds I'm currently working with are just pictures I took on my phone reduced to like 8 or 16 colors, pic related is an example. My current thinking atm is that I want it to look like a mid-90s game with shitty image compression, but I'm pretty open to different visual styles.
What I'm thinking is I will just post periodically with what I need and anyone interested in doodling something for me can just reply to the post with their drawing. If you want to be listed in the game's credits as an artist just put the name you'd like to be credited as in the name field.
Here's what I need currently:
>a homeless woman
she's just a throwaway character who appears once at the beginning of the game, I don't have too many specific requirements.
>a hipster, soyboy type character
this guy is basically the friend of the protagonist/narrator. I imagine him as being the sort of average NPC you'd see walking around the streets of an average liberal city. Not a hardcore SJW but kind of a left-leaning but not particularly politically aware normie.
>a sexually ambiguous SJW
pretty much Tumblr the person. Fat, ambiguous gender, gage piercings, stupid haircut dyed some ugly color, ironic Buddy Holly glasses, the whole 9 yards.
>two pony tulpas
The pony tulpas are meant to be obvious knockoffs of Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash named Flutterbutts and Rainbow Darsh respectively. I imagine their designs to be kind of like the bootleg waifu threads on /mlp/. They look like the characters they are meant to resemble but are just different enough to be considered legally distinct. By all means have some fun with it. Personality-wise Flutterbutts is a Communist and Rainbow Darsh is like a cruder, more violent version of Rainbow Dash who swears all the time.
Thanks in advance to anyone interested in helping. I seriously doubt this will make any money but in the event that it does I'll find a way to pay you.
>>238123I'm going to draw Leslie first because I already planned to, but after that I'll see what I can do for you. Do you multiple facial expressions or poses? I don't really know how much extra work that'd be.
Oops, I meant "Do you need multiple facial expressions and poses."
>>238158>>238160It would actually help me immensely to have multiple poses and expressions for each character, if you're willing to do it. For ancillary one-shot characters like the homeless lady one single drawing should suffice, but for the poners and the other main characters I think having some different images to use would be helpful. I think having a happy, sad, angry, scared, and neutral version of each character would be great. That could probably be done by either doing a separate drawing in a different pose for each emotion, or simply doing a single base drawing and changing the facial expression. Worst case scenario I could probably make do with a single image for each character, or maybe a "main" expression and an "alternate" expression. It's entirely up to you how much work you want to put in, I greatly appreciate your help either way ^_^
Can anyone please critique my sketch before I make a final version?
>>238275Personally? The vulva is too small and too similar in design to the anus, and the crotchtits are too proportionally large and formless. Anus could also stand to look a bit more puffy and spherical, but that's just me. Other than that, it's not bad.
>>238280Noted, and thank you.
This is an improvement, right?
>>238298>>238298Teats wouldn't normally be that wide unless pregnant or lactating due to diet, and are oval in shape, not round. The snout looks like a beak similar to a few OC's that were on the old birdpone thread.. which I just spent a few minutes laughing at.
>>238303I can edit the teats again, but I don't see what you mean about the snout. It's round, a beak would be pointy.
Examples of what I meant: side view as image 1 & 2 as the snout in your image is a bit small like #3
>>238308Is this what you meant the snout should look like?
>>238309Exactly! The teats are now perfectly proportioned as well. 10/10 would teach the AAA guide to.
>>238123Drew the homeless woman do you want any changes. Also do you want full body drawings or just the upper torso
>>238450That's a nice drawing, anon. I wish I could draw. I'm sick but I might watch some Bob Ross later.
>>238450>Also do you want full body drawings or just the upper torsoI think the amount of body visible is perfect, that's about the point where I usually cut off the drawing anyway.
Would it be possible to get the image with alpha transparency instead of the white background? Other than that I love it, thank you very much for your help. Do you want to be listed in the credits under any particular name or is this just an anonymous donation?
>>238461an anonymous donation
>>238435Simply amazing, sir.
>>238471Awesome, thank you. Your generous contribution to the annals of history shall be rewarded in the afterlife.
>>238448>>238487Thank you both.
>>238123I drew a normie soyboy type guy for you. It's not super, but for the time put into it, I think it's decent.
>>238518Awesome, thank you. I can definitely use those. Did you wish to be credited or remain anonymous?
I greatly appreciate everyone who has contributed to my project so far. I am going to work on this game a bit this week, I should have some screenshots I can post shortly.
>>238828You can credit me as "Kalergi P. Lan"
>>238853Consider it done. Thanks again.
>>238435Your forelegs always suffer the fate of looking somewhat like human arms. Remember that the poner is thicc, friend. Also, Leslie's left (her side) hoof would have the bend further up. When in doubt, refer to pic related and the guide it came from:
https://imgur.com/a/m7zQ2.
You've improved a lot and I love the drawings that you make, but you've still got a ways to go.
>>239041Thanks, I appreciate your advice.
>>238123Any changes you want made. What poses would you like
>>240676Welp, that's the wrong one.
>>240669Soy latte in the basket or in a cup holder. As for other poses, the whale yelling at someone angrily.
>>240669I love it. Great design. If possible, could you angle the face or maybe just move the eyes so it looks like xir is facing the camera, and make the expression more annoyed and angry looking?
Also, here's a couple of screenshots from what I have of the game so far, if anyone is interested in seeing them.
Rainbow Dash flapping her wings.
13 frames to make an animation.
And now I have finally drawn my first horse porn pic. What have you done to me mlpol?
>>241144>4 and 5but why
Just delete frame 1, give frame 2 double duration and add a frame between 4 and 5 for smoothness
Vörkingprogresse! gonna put some colors on her and add a background. Like, painting a beach or something
Pic related is the product of not using my hands artistically for a long-ass time, and finally getting around to make an oc character. I have two names in mind, namely Hunyi and Gizella. Shall I draw more or give up?
>>241925Nicely done anon. The body is a little bit large in proportion to the head, and the eyes could be a little bigger, but you've got a solid foundation
>>241928Thank, I've adressed these issues(but now in color!)
>>242000Off to good start, recommend moar drawing.
I'm curious about the meaning of the runic text.
Have some oh see faggotry.
>>242000You're getting there, Anon, it's not bad work. Keep up practicing.
>>24207010/10 would fug the poner
>>242071>>242018>You're getting there, Anon, it's not bad work. Keep up practicing.>Off to good start, recommend moar drawing.Thanks lads! I'll do just that
>I'm curious about the meaning of the runic text.The one below the two frames say "Gulyás Leves(Goulash Soup)↑"
And the bottom "Hunyi Gizella" the name I gave the character
>>241444You clearly have skills but it looks ugly as fuck. Like body horror.
>>242094Eh, ugly isn't the right word more like distubing.
>>242095>anthro is disturbing
any tips on how to improve, proportions seem to be my biggest issue
>>242275Those messing with filly for trolling purposes are inviting a curse.
>>242275Couple of things I noticed outright:
1. The poners should have a bit of a curve before the connection to their heads. As a greater drawfag than I once informed me, poners don't really have to have necks but if you don't taper them off a bit then it won't even give the illusion of it.
2. Twilight's hoof doesn't really seem like it's wrapped around filly, just kind of loosely floating behind her. This works in the other image because humans are capable of standing on their own, but poners aren't capable of this feat for much longer than a few seconds.
3. No real complaints for filly's head other than maybe adding nostrils (that's a stylistic thing though) but something seriously uncanny is going on with Twiggy's head. Be sure to only follow the pic you're trying to parody in general form, not anatomy. The mouth of the horse should at the
lowest directly beneath the base of the muzzle. The muzzle itself should also be tilted so that we can see the side as well as the front at that angle. I don't really know how to describe it better than that, sorry.
4. Twiggy and filly should probably have slightly larger ears.
5. Thick legs are very important to the cuteness of a poner. Many people make the mistake of thinking that they're a lot like human arms and legs in thickness, but you really want to go thiccer.
5. Adding a dock to filly could help, but since the show doesn't really do docks I see them as stylistic. You do you there.
6.At that angle, you really shouldn't be seeing the line for Twilight's right leg (right from the perspective of the viewer, btw.) her butt should be obscuring more hf her leg.
7. Line for the left leg ends a bit lower, hemispheres are good but you generally want to integrate them a bit more seamlessly into the rest of the poner.
8. Twiggy's horn should be poking through her mane.
9. Never underestimate the power of cutie marks. They just generally look nice, and leaving them out is generally no bueno imo.
I like the concept, hopefully you can use some of that to improve upon your drawings.
And maybe draw more anonfilly.
>>24234510. Right, also for filly/colt bodies you want to have your head be about the size of the rest of the body, and for mares you want their heads to be about the same size as filly heads but their bodies be twice as large as their head. Hope all of this makes sense.
>>242275
>>242275One last thing, if you're looking for good refs go for the horse pussy. Porn has all sorts of weird-ass positions.
>>242345I tried following your advice, how does this look
>>242496It looks better, but remember the legs need to be thiccer than that. Don't be afraid to use references, even professional artists usually find themselves relying on them fairly often. Here are a few to get you started, I'd recommend just going on derpi and browsing through their tags until you find the piece closest to what you're trying to do. Study how all of the bits and pieces connect, then try it for yourself.
Drew Leslie doing the Costanza pose because it's been awhile since I drew her. Criticism would be appreciated.
>>242636Can't find anything to criticize. It's pretty damn amazing.
Drawing Is hard
Specially without references
>>244481True, but that will get easier with practice. Keep at it, fren.
>>245621I want more of this poner. If you are up to draw her.
>>245623And done.
Does this rightious pon-pon have a name yet?
>>245646Nice! I don't. What about God's Wrath or Divine Fury?
>>245646Shitskin Smasher? But maybe we need to develop her lore. Like there were no sarcens in Equestria so what did she crusade against?
>>245646>>245647>>245648I believe it’s Mai or Maia Gabriel
>>245649>Mai or Maia GabrielI don't know what those names means or are a refrence to but I shouldn't have assumed that she didn't already got a name.
>>245649Neat.
>>245650Nothing wrong with spit-balling ideas, swede-anon.
The names you suggested weren't a bad start but I think pony names need a bit of cutesinous & goofy word play.
Lore wise, Diamond Dogs could make a good in universe analog to Mudslimes. Never got enough love in the main show IMHO.
>>245646Nice work, thanks anon.
>>245652>>245650>>245649>>245648>>245647>>245646I seem to remember the name Christi Gratia for her, but I may be confusing things. Somebody with a better memory than me should probably chip in on this.
>>245712I heard that one too come to think of it
I have been thinking about making a visual novel. But I lack the skills to draw nice looking things.
Should I just contact an artist on pixiv or deviantart commission and/or have them work together with me.
I haven't done this before. Should I make something small? Like a pony fangame can use the art assest from the sho and so on.
What do you think?
>>247205The game I wish to create in the future is a game that is more on political spectrum them pony. While the the politics in the story will be subtle and not preachy. The game won't contain any ponies unless I put in a hidden easteregg/refrence somewhere.
Actually, that's what I'm gonna do. I will create a pony visual novel first. If I make this do you think there is some faggot out there that would be willing to make darwings for such a game? It probably shouldn't be to many pictures to draw. I want it to be a short game for a first game afterall.
>>247206I'll return when I have something.
>>247205>>247206By all means hire a talented individual; specialization of labor exists for a reason. Don't expect to be charged a low price depending on what you're making, particularly if you're not already an accomplished writer who'll get the artist more exposure. A few drawings for a short game will run you at least $50.
Don't actually use the art assets from the show, as they are copyrighted. Use vector art instead.
I recommend looking at different artists on Derpibooru and finding someone who has the style you want. It's best to find someone underappreciated (lower upvotes despite good quality) as you'll get cheaper service and (usually) a less busy schedule. It's hard to find someone like that, let alone get in contact, but they are there.
>>247210Thanks for the advice. It was giving and I will ponder it.
I'll post the visual novel in text format on this board in the future. I'm talking about the short fangame one about ponies not the serious one. Well, not as serious as an actul product that I would charge money for. I'm still gonna amp up my writing quality for it. If what I write isn't good enough afterall there is no point anyway.
Speaking of visual novels, I've been working intermittently on mine. I should have something worth showing fairly soon. I will probably make a webm or something of the first couple minutes of the game.
Here's an updated list of what I still need, if anyone is still interested in doodling characters. Please and thank you to anyone who takes the time.
>two pony tulpas
The pony tulpas are meant to be obvious knockoffs of Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash named Flutterbutts and Rainbow Darsh respectively. I imagine their designs to be kind of like the bootleg waifu threads on /mlp/. They look like the characters they are meant to resemble but are just different enough to be considered legally distinct. By all means have some fun with it. Personality-wise Flutterbutts is a Communist and Rainbow Darsh is like a cruder, more violent version of Rainbow Dash who swears all the time.
Since these two are not so much exact representations of the MLP characters as they are tulpas existing in the headspace of a somewhat disturbed autist, I'd actually prefer it if the drawings look more like amateur fan-art than professional work. If anyone is still developing their talents and wants practice drawing ponies, this might be a good opportunity to do so without any pressure to produce something pro-tier.
>three negroes
basically, each one of these guys represents a different black stereotype. The first one is basically a 70s pimp. Wide brim hat, fur coat, everything garishly colored, all of that. Pic 1 for reference. The second one is an 80s/early 90s B-boy kind of character. Like a flat-top fade haircut, sunglasses, maybe a gold chain, probably owns a ridiculous number of tracksuits. Very skinny guy. Pic 2 for reference. Third guy is a 90s gangster stereotype. Wears a lot of baggy, dark-colored heavy denim. Very heavyset guy. Pic 3 for reference. Reference pics do not need to be copied exactly, I just provide them for a reference of the general style I want each character to have.
>two cops
Basic cops. A smooth-talking but sadistic black cop with a mustache, and a mean-tempered sort-of redneck white cop, also with a mustache. Officers Tenpenny and Pulaski from San Andreas is what I had in mind when I was writing the characters, pic 4 for reference. However, their visual design isn't tremendously important, as long as it's one black cop and one white cop.
>white male middle aged politician
This guy is between 30-40 years old and looks like a typical white male Democrat governor or senator. Dorky haircut, dockers slacks, probably wears a blazer with a T-shirt or patterned collared shirt underneath. He's the kind of guy who is really good at smiling and waving and saying the right platitudes during speeches and campaign events. Keeps up on whatever music the young people are listening to in order to stay "hip." However, he also has a serious coke problem and is a complete asshole the second the cameras are turned off. Is involved in a lot of shady business dealings. He's very sexist and likes to beat up hookers while high on coke, but he pretends to be gay and is in a sham gay marriage in order to gain diversity cred. I imagine him looking a little like Beto O'Rourke, or at least the same kind of haircut and fashion sense. This guy is probably going to be the biggest project on this list, because I actually need at least three drawings of him: a fairly normal one where he's wearing his nice middle-aged yuppie clothes, another one in the same outfit except he looks like a coked-out madman (eyes bloodshot, shirt rumpled, hair messed up, etc), and a third drawing where he is also coked out of his mind, but is also shirtless and has his face painted like he was going to Burning Man.
>middle aged Filipino faggot
Fake husband of the white male politician, but unironically very gay. Basically needs to look like a fag, but a respectable fag that dresses well and has money. Not too picky about his visual design as long as he's Filipino and looks like he could be plausibly gay married to the guy described above.
>androgynous tranny
Not quite as Tumblr tier as the last tranny I requested, but definitely a tranny. This guy/girl is the man(?)servant of the Governor and his fag-husband. Wears expensive and stylish gender-neutral clothes. It should be impossible to tell from looking at this character what sex it is even trying to be. Maybe has a David Bowie or a Klaus Nomi kind of look. By all means have some fun with it.
I will probably need others yet but I think this is most of the main cast (it's been about a year since I've looked at this story so I forgot a lot of what I wrote). Anyway, thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to draw something for me, just let me know what name you would like if you want to be mentioned in the game's credits.
>>247224Nice! Be interested to play it when it is finished.
>>247228Sounds really nice! It would be an interesting little game that doesn't take itself too seriously yet has a scathing view of society. As for the style I recommend getting reference from artsy sorts of games like OFF and Lisa, as a disturbed sort of doodle fits the art-style of the former and the cynical atmosphere fits the latter.
>three negroesSounds a lot like Boondocks to me which would be interesting. Reaching an audience beyond /mlpol/ probably necessitates that you give a modicum of sympathetic perspective even if you lambaste their flaws. I'd imagine they'd be a goofy sort.
>two copsReferencing San Andreas is a great idea because it's a well-loved classic, but I recommend differentiating them a little bit. The first thing that comes to mind is exaggerating them to a comedic extent as it seems like the rest of the game is intended to have humor.
>politicianI know you're referencing Beto O'Rourke and Trudeau, but it's worth applying aspects of other sleazy politicians (there's no shortage of them) like Jimmy Carter, Bill Weld and of course Bill Clinton. Emphasizing the veneer so players go "something's not right here…" yet feel curious to explore further may be a good idea. Such politicians are the sort to invite half the (respectable side of) town to a lavish (but casual) annual party to appear more relatable.
>fake husbandSounds like the setting of Allen Gregory, which is one of the worst cartoons of all time but really tried to be "diverse" by having a sociopathic CEO essentially hire a man to be his husband. He also adopted a Cambodian girl who is abused. I'm not sure if the show is meant to be some kind of satire but it's disgusting. I think the creators also made that show with the sex demons.
>trannyProbably not a servant because being a servant actually requires you to get your hands dirty and have some patience. A political assistant or "community organizer" is probably a better fit. I'd recommend chatting with actual trannies on Discord, as revolting as it can be, just to see how mentally damaged and fragile they are.
>>247228> I've been working intermittently on mineGlad to hear.
Btw I'm sorry that I never made and audionovel of it. I wanted to but life got in the way.
I would rate your story seven fillies out of ten purples tbh. It is obivious from the begining that it will be a comedy story. It succeeds in this for the most part. What one doesn't know at that point is that it will become a good mysery novel aswell. The mystery is pretty good. It dos follow the give the reader all the piece before the conclusion formula, if I didn't make any mistakes somewhere. Though, this is true, all the pieces arrive late in the story so don't expect to solve the mystery right away.
There were only a few moments were a rolled my eyes, your main characters how everything is pointless spiel was one. But then again it does fit his chracter so it is technically well done. It is not you that is the problem it is me. Otherwise it was solid throughout. Would recomand.
I have been thinking though, you won't have any branching paths will you? I mean since it is based on this book that your wrote. Or have you added such paths to it?
Not that I'm complaining since I can see the charm with just a novel with pictures to it. I was just wondering.
>I will probably need others yet but I think this is most of the main cast (it's been about a year since I've looked at this story so I forgot a lot of what I wrote).Well then, here are some more characters your mc interacts with.
>Samantha>Her father >The milf lawyer that was in that one scene or actually two>The motel owner >white male middle aged politician"I'm the motherfucking valrus!"
I'm not sure if I think he was probably setup. Like I know you mentioned him in the story in passing and that was subtle and well done. Solid fooreshadowing! But that only foreshadowed that he existed basically.
Not the part of him that the public sees. Like if your mc had seen him holding a typical speech on tv. Have him say a bunch of platidudes there.
But again maybe you did show that somewhere in there and I simply don't remember.
>>247231>Reaching an audience beyond /mlpol/ probably necessitates that you give a modicum of sympathetic perspective even if you lambaste their flaws. I can understand you perspective. I think something similar abbout how to redpill people. There is basically three general ways in my opinion. Being straight with them and tell them exactly what you think and stand up for your beliefs. Well, ragardless of method ne should allways do this. Well, unless it is clearly detrimental???
Eh, the point is to show strength and not to be afraid of guilt by association. But in the way of giving ones message I guess one can also be subtle about it or presenting ones message like E;R so that people are unsure if you are serious or not.
Anyway, in the context of these characters it really doesn't make to much sense in changing them. They are kinda suppose to be shitheads. Their existance comments on the gansta niggas out there in the real world.
People how complain about this are hypocrites since they with compltete certainty don't complain when white men are bad guys in fiction.
Futhermore, these kindof people exist in the real world so it works as satire.
If one where to make a black character more sympathetic in the story it would be the black cop.
But again, this was kind unecessary of me since you knew this already. The question was about how to reach audinences outside of redpilled people.
I think that it is impossible to change this story to appeal to normies at this point. it would require a toral rewrite. However, I think it could reach liberals who are all about identity politics. At least some of them.
You know the type, watches Jordan pettersen and soygoy of mossad
I haven't kept track of him but from what I have learnt he has changed somewhat. You know the crowd who listen to efap that talks about games and the marvel movies and such. It is not that they are always wrong. It is just that they work as a false opposition because they don't have the entire picture.
Those kind of people are the ones that this story could potentially grab. Just because it is this sort of unapologetic and silly political satire with a tinge of autism mixed in.
Attached is the story he is makinga game of.
>>247229Thanks. I'm thinking about making a story that branches out in different directions. That's what entice me to visual novels the most.
>>247352>Samantha Actually, when I think about it. He does never interact with her.
>>247352>all the pieces arrive late in the story so don't expect to solve the mystery right awayYeah, I was kind of writing off the cuff due to the nature of NaNoWriMo so I didn't really plan it out. I'm actually reworking the story a bit for the VN, I'll probably drop a couple of clues in a little sooner, add some scenes, and tighten up the narrative a bit. There's a few details that on revisiting it don't make a ton of sense so I might change small elements of it.
>you won't have any branching paths will you?Haven't decided yet. It's occurred to me that it might be fun to develop a couple of side mysteries for the player to solve along the way, and have the main story follow the same path as the novel. I might throw in a couple of bad ends too if I can think of any. It's not 100% though, I might just have the story play out all the way through without any choices or branching. I'm kind of seeing how it goes.
>Like if your mc had seen him holding a typical speech on tv. Have him say a bunch of platidudes there. But again maybe you did show that somewhere in there and I simply don't remember.
Yeah, introducing the governor character a little sooner and giving the reader more of an impression of his public side to contrast his private side is one of the details I want to alter.
>There were only a few moments were a rolled my eyes, your main characters how everything is pointless spiel was one.Part of what I was trying to do with this story was make some commentary on white male isolation, how shitty things look under liberal rule, and how depressing and pointless modernity is most of the time. I didn't want it to be all heavy handed and corny though so I tried to make it lighthearted and humorous most of the time, making the autist character someone who would be sympathetic but also someone you could laugh at a little. Believe it or not I actually rewrote his angstier monologues numerous times because I felt some of them were a bit much, and the version that wound up in the final draft is toned down quite a bit. Maybe it needs a bit more toning. Anyway, the Raymond Chandler novel this is based on,
The Long Goodbye, was sort of the same thing; it was a mystery story that also contained a lot of Chandler's social commentary on the corruption and decay in Los Angeles (bear in mind this was in like 1955 when LA was still basically fit for human habitation, so it's probably good he didn't live to see what a complete shithole it eventually became). I wanted to do a similar kind of thing with present-day Portland, Oregon.
>Btw I'm sorry that I never made and audionovel of it. I wanted to but life got in the way.No worries. I'd still be interested in hearing it if you ever get around to it. I'm actually using most of that music I gave you as the soundtrack to the VN. If you ever get it done I could probably add it as bonus content to the game or something.
>>247231Thank you for the suggestions, glad you're interested. The story is mostly written already but I'm kind of editing it along the way so I might take some of these ideas into mind at various points.
>I'd recommend chatting with actual trannies on Discord, as revolting as it can be, just to see how mentally damaged and fragile they are.Closest I ever got was talking to that Goat guy who infiltrated the /mlpol/ discord at one point. That's about the maximum level of interaction I feel like having with one of those screwballs. There's really only two trannies in the story anyway, and they're both fairly minor characters.
>>247399Just a question, will it be a point-and-click? I loved those games and although the genre's been dead for twenty years there might be a revival. A point-and-click also has more gameplay than a VN.
>>247228Might be a bit to close to the original. tell me if you would like any modifications to the design.
>>247420Holy sheeit, that's freaking awesome. If you could do Flutterbutts in the same style I will love you forever.
I think if maybe you made each color off by just a slightly noticeable amount. Like maybe made the coat a different shade of blue and used a different color palette for the rainbow mane, like pastel colors or something, that might throw it off by just the right amount.
>>247405>Just a question, will it be a point-and-click?If you mean point and click in the sense of like Monkey Island and that sort of thing, then no. However, I am also a fan of that sort of game and have made them in the past. If you would like to play one I made a while ago, you can play this one:
https://muffinentertainment.itch.io/the-adventures-of-stanley-frankfurter-jonesthere is also a sequel:
https://muffinentertainment.itch.io/frank-further-the-further-adventures-of-stanley-frankfurter-jones-chapter-iActually as long as I'm plugging ridiculous things I've made here's the completely retarded pony dating sim I threw together last year:

>>247460You are a very poopy person and I feel bad when I sex you.
>>247460> retarded pony dating sim I'm actually thinking about doing something similar for my first game. It just won't be retarded, though.
>>247420That is really good.
>>247458Made one with and one without a drop shadow
Posting unfinished drawing. The Value slider got stuck in hue select mode.
>>247550Good one.
But Rainbow is screaming for a diet. No more fast food for her.
>>247564>not liking thick mares
Learning to use a new art program, just doing sketches of random things. I really need to get a drawing tablet too.
>>247570Is it wrong that I want it to head-bang like the pidgeon meme?
>>247570There is an abyss between arty lewd and degenerate art. Usually it's a mirror of the soul.
You are a kike. Aren't you?
>>247550Perfect, I love it. Thanks again.
also I like the thicc>>247570Don't listen to
>>247586 . Having a pigeon dick is the mark of the true patrician.
>>247570Ah, a fellow man of culture.
Also, you did pretty good for no tablet.
>>247665Holy dickballs, that cutie mark is perfect. These are going straight in the game. Thanks very much.
>>247665You are pretty good at this stuff.
>>247846She's arrived with the tank just in the nic of time.
Aryanne's cute as ever & the tank looks neat. Good work, anon.
Not my suggestion, but I like it. Could any of you all help a filly out?
>>248181 →
>>247849There are a million Lees.
>>248183here's my attempt
Just got reminded that this old tranny furry meme exists... could someone put the same music over two still images of Aryanne contemplating and Aryanne looking at two gas valves labeled 'Ziggers' and 'Griffons'? Would be sort of a funny subversion of the original intent.
