Description How do I draw muscles? That was the question I was asking myself after doing a silly doodle and deciding to redraw it and upload it to DA.

Then as soon as I started drawing it, I found the answer: trace over stock photos! Problem solved.

I don't really have anything to say about this. After deciding not to draw any more pony boobs, I'm not sure how to feel. It does feel like I've got a lot off my chest (no pun intended), but it also means that I had a lot of things planned that now won't see the light of day.

Brohoof?


Wahaha!!

Tracing?.. no tracing. Tracing is bad

No, I'm not, but I have no respect for people who trace instead of creating their own work

I agree, but I made something new out of it. And I didn't just take a random picture with some muscles in, go "That'll do!", and whack it on the picture without any effort. I used multiple images, and chose them carefully. Also, I didn't just trace over them!! Good grief, no! I took liberties with the design: Which details are important? What works in my style and what doesn't?

Also the fact, that, y'know, stock photos! The whole point of stock photos is to use them in your own work! That's what they're for!

>_> Well if you were only using stock photos, then there's not really a problem. But you didn't say you used stock. You said you traced an image.

What?? I quite clearly said "stock photos". Try reading the description more carefully.
