Haha, i was waiting until someone discovered the small lack of consistence in the Perspective.
Well, for Solution: Imagine a Step in the Land, about two feet tall, with such Grass ontop. Derpy trots along and suddenly stops because She has found a Ladybug, comfortable at eye height. So, no need for drawing a bending Pony.

That makes things a lot clearer. I kind of guessed as much but I wasn't sure if it was a mistake. Still good job though!

Hahaha, possible!
But Twilight would say, thats a bad idea, because Ladybugs have a smelly secretion to defend themself against predators. *the more you know*

Oh, this looks wonderful. Even moreso if you say you did it all without vectors. One thing stands out for me though, and that's the eye's highlights. Shouldn't they be symmetrical on both eyes?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

da-andi In reply to Pirill-Poveniy [2012-03-05 20:16:48 +0000 UTC]

Derpy and the Background was hand-carved out of solid color, with a Brush and a Eraser, no vectors or Paths.
But, only because i didnt know about the Path-tool, the Grass in the Front was already made with Paths, it saves a lot of time and still make it look crisp.
I really should have done this all with Vectors in the first Place...

The Reflections in the Eyes should be (almost) identical with Form and Placement, but not symmetrical.
But i liked it more this way, making them identical in both Eyes let them look simply copied and furthermore boring.

Pirill-Poveniy In reply to da-andi [2012-03-05 20:29:54 +0000 UTC]

I understand and respect your choice about the eyes, I was just pointing out that unless the light sources are pretty weird(don't take my word for this, I'm not an expert or anything ), you'd usually get symmetrical highlights, or at least very similar. Derpy looks great though, so knock yourself out if you like them this way. I just tend to obsess over little meaningless details anyway.

da-andi In reply to Pirill-Poveniy [2012-03-05 21:25:35 +0000 UTC]

You're probably right about the wrong, non-existence Light-source, but i bet you know, that the Reflections are extremely necessary to avoid empty-looking zombie-Eyes.
Even if the Reflections are wrong, it looks waaaay better with than without. I can quickly make you an example with Derpy, if you want.

Pirill-Poveniy In reply to da-andi [2012-03-06 13:47:07 +0000 UTC]

I must not have been very clear, I was voicing my opinion regarding their non-symmetricalness, not saying they should be outright removed. Removing them completely would, as you said, just make them look lifeless.
