It's not sad, is it? It's bittersweet at worst. ^_^

Premature okay is okay. I had this grand battle planned. We were going to have gunships... WE WERE GOING TO HAVE GUN SHIPS! THINK OF THE TOY SALES!

What toy sales? We don't have the ghost of a chance against the action figures of Constable Steve. He's got the market cornered.

D'aaaww, she looks adorable! But Fluttershy, you should get out of the rain! I don't want you catching a cold!

C-Cain In reply to AbbieGoth [2012-06-19 08:39:12 +0000 UTC]

She's a tree. Trees don't catch colds. They also need the rain to survive.

Nice! It's a bit of an emotional scene, and I like how you referred to Fluttershy as a tree LOL! What do you mean by "Drawn by mouse"?

C-Cain In reply to REDGrim [2012-06-19 08:38:30 +0000 UTC]

I don't have a tablet. I didn't sketch it on paper, either.
I just opened GIMP, created a blank canvas and used my mouse to draw it. (And I also used my laptop's touch pad for some minor details.)

I see, I realized that after I posted it...I'm tarded xD I don't have a tablet either D: I find drawing with the mouse to be really awkward/hard to do, any tips? I'm primarily a traditional artist, though I may expand into digital as I get better.

C-Cain In reply to REDGrim [2012-06-19 16:24:56 +0000 UTC]

Well, if you have a specific problem I may have a precise answer.

But here's a few things to consider:

- Get yourself a proper program (GIMP/Photoshop/Paint Tool SAI)
- Layers are your friends.
- The path tool is really, really helpful.
- Learn to use filters.
- The higher the resolution the better.

REDGrim In reply to C-Cain [2012-06-20 07:54:06 +0000 UTC]

No specific problems, other than a general preference to traditional art on paper. I haven't actually tried digital much but they come out so beautiful that it makes me want to at least give it a chance to grow on me xD Thanks for the tips though

Nvm dude...*feel stupid* I'm just so used to drawing on actual paper that I didn't really think that through xD. Drawing by mouse must be really hard though, I don't think I could ever manage digital art D:

Aww... it's nice to see that Fluttershy is actually happy whilst being (seemingly) by herself in a dark forest.

Methinks she feels quite at home in the great oudoors.

Actually, this is quite inspiring as well!

Good job!

I am talking about a sub-meme or an in-joke or whatever you'd like to call it.
Point is, there's a running theme that Fluttershy is a tree. Or would like to be a tree. In the same manner that Scootaloo is a chicken.

Hope that clears it up a bit.
