Description
Hey guys~ these are some rough drafts (not final!) for Nightingale, Misty, and Illusion (from left to right).I was a little bit hesitant about posting sketches because I can be a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to final line art, but since I personally looove seeing other artists’ sketches, doodles, and how they go about doing their thing, I thought I would also show a bit of my process! I’m also trying to practice keeping it more sketchy and being confident in doodles instead of making it “as clean as possible” which is where most of my time usually goes. Hope you enjoy!
These three ponies are really close and spend a lot of time together, so I’ve been trying to figure out their heights and sizes in relation to each other for when I draw them hanging out. The line shows Nightingale’s proportions and I tried to base off of it, because Misty is the tallest and leanest of the trio while Nighty and Lulu are roughly the same height and build. When I’m designing kids, I usually take their parents’ color palettes and sort of play around with the colors. Then I make a quick sketch and test out the colors before sketching a cleaner draft and filling in with colors!

These are lovely little sketches! I completely understand and struggle with perfectionism myself and posting doodles that aren’t completely clean and neat in every line. So bravo to you for stepping outside your comfort zone in posting this! I also enjoy seeing the artists process, and messier lines add a lot of personality to it!
As for the characters, I just love how introverted Misty here is both the tallest and leanest- what a perfectly fitting detail! And I love Nightingale’s design- it’s so cool and mellow. Reminds me of summer slushees ( particularly watermelon ). Illusion looks nice as well, although the bright, saturated purple doesn’t really do it for me. But that’s just because I’m biased to softer, more mellow colors and not because it looks bad. If you like the design and colors, by all means use them! I’m sure she’s still a lovely character under her bright purple coat. And I will admit, that altogether this trios combination of colors is very eye-pleasing! I look forward to seeing more of these pretty mares!
