Description
Did anyone else think that cupcake spike was given for his birthday looked absolutely delectable (despite it's lack of edibility for obvious reasons)? I imagine Pinkie having a hard time being in the same room as it before Spike picked it up.Also, this took a LOOOOOOONG time. Hope it shows! Critique is gladly accepted, and encouraged if you have anything you want to say. Download it if you want to see her in a ridiculously large size because pressing your face against the screen as hard as you can just isn't enough.
By the way I'm opening commissions real soon, so yay!
Got in the drawfriend at number 15 [link]

Oh yeah. Each line in the hair is done individually. You know how long it took to make each line perfectly spaced from each other at every part? If they aren't the hair looks broken and weird. I had to redo an area because I did it too fast and it was too messy. Oh, and this took me like 60 hours over the course of 5 days, but I was really sick (and I still kinda am), so it could have been shorter if I wasn't.

Did you do ALL of this in a paint program, or did you start with a pencil sketch?

Here-for-the-ponies In reply to FallenShadow000 [2013-06-17 14:28:42 +0000 UTC]
This was all done in SAI. No custom brushes and the only texture I used was for the cupcake frosting and cupcake...cake XD

Here-for-the-ponies In reply to FallenShadow000 [2013-06-17 22:09:54 +0000 UTC]
Hmm...It can take anywhere from a day to a couple weeks to really get the hang of, since most tablet don't have displays and you have to look at the screen while you draw, but once you get the hang of it, it'll be like a second nature. Personally, I would recommend not buying the bamboo if you can afford an intuos4, because I hear the bamboo is good for very casual drawing and not too much beyond that. If you plan on drawing multiple hours a day, spend a couple extra hundred on a good tablet instead of a relatively cheap one.

I'll be doing that once a friend of mine shows me how. He does a good bit of digital work and agreed to show me how to use the tablet.

Thanks. Another question: Can it be done with a mouse?

Here-for-the-ponies In reply to FallenShadow000 [2013-06-18 02:00:51 +0000 UTC]
Goodness no. The mouse has no pressure sensitivity or stability that pen strokes do. If someone drew anything near this quality with a mouse, they would ascend into Godhood.

Friggin' scanners. I've been trying to get this one drawing scanned so I can post it here, but it washes away all the super darks and blends most of the mediums together.

This whole picture is amazing, but I really like how you did her mane! I always imagined it as kinda hair blobs; seeing it as thinner ribbons is awesome, and explains the lines in the show's style really well. Her eyes and that cupcake are really good too

Here-for-the-ponies In reply to MidwestBrony [2013-06-17 01:48:49 +0000 UTC]
I actually did try to justify it's shape in the show, while giving it a more realistic style. I'm really glad you noticed that.

A few, little words come to mind when I see this; "Painfully" "Delicious". Well for anyone NOT a dragon that is. lol
The look in Pinkie's eyes reminds me of a child in a toy store and they see something that they "could" easily take and they know that they shouldn't. lol
