How To Draw Eric, the anthro pegasus from Wandering Trials, and my avatar pretty much wherever I go.

The text, in retrospect, is WAY too excessively wordy. But, that's pretty much how I am. I talk way too much if given the chance. And, when I'm not talking, I'm usually either singing, humming, drawing, eating or sleeping. (I assure you, Gaby can back me up on this.)

This is kind of an older piece. Eric has changed a LITTLE bit visually since I did this piece. His face is a little bit longer now. But, the concept is still, for the most part, the same. Hope somebody out there finds this helpful.

Enjoy!

Interesting! Most of the time, whenever I draw horses, I usually draw the snout/nose/whatever it's called, by drawing it as a 3D rectangle...sometimes I use the circle to indicate the nose and stuff, but not very often. Drawing horse faces at that angle always seem to be very hard for me to do, so alot of the time, you'll see my equine heads from the side, rather than the 3/4's view, so I think this will help me out a bit (favs it!)

It does take a little getting used to. But, it's a method that's really helped me out a lot. Hope it helps!

but what if the horse, in quewstion ME, has fire for hair?

Pegasus316 In reply to Shiadria [2005-06-16 03:22:55 +0000 UTC]

Well, fire's a tricky one to draw anyway.

Just figure that instead of the hair curling down thanks to gravity, it's flowing upward.

CuddlyDemon [2005-06-15 14:57:34 +0000 UTC]

He tends to go from angry to vaguely pissed, and that's as far as his eyes un-angry at any given point.

Of course, there's always Chibi-Peggers. Which I'd pay to see. >.>

If it really means that much to you, there are a few occassions where he's been... cute-i-fied.

"Chibi" isn't quite the word. Maybe more like "MLP'd". You can thank Gaby for this [link]

Now that's not true. Sometimes, he's managed to achieve mild consternation. And, once, even general annoyance!

I've got a question! I was thinking of starting your con badge soon, so this is very helpful for drawing Eric. ^-~ Is he always angry, or is it ok to show him with other facial expressions? What's your preference?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Pegasus316 In reply to RamenNoodles518 [2005-06-16 03:14:17 +0000 UTC]

Naah, he doesn't HAVE to look angry. I just use that expression to make him look imposing. You can draw him however you'd like.

There are a few different facial expressions he makes in my webcomic. You can use that as referrence too, if you need to.

In the meantime, I'm taking a break from issue 2 to get to everyone's conbadges. Is there a specific character you wanted me to draw? (My memory sucks. So, if you told me before, I apologize for forgetting. Life's been EXTREMELY hectic up 'til recently.)

RamenNoodles518 In reply to Pegasus316 [2005-06-16 03:17:03 +0000 UTC]

Hehe, it's ok. I know the chaotic feeling of life thing. I had told ya I wanted a badge of my character Rheinyx, and if you need the description again, that's no problem at all. ^-^

Pegasus316 In reply to RamenNoodles518 [2005-06-16 04:06:42 +0000 UTC]

Oookay, I do recall the character.

Now, I know you won't want her to be nude on the badge. So, what kinda clothes would you like her in?

RamenNoodles518 In reply to Pegasus316 [2005-06-17 12:16:47 +0000 UTC]

Hmm... this is always the question that gets me. Hehe. I'll say we can put her in casual clothes, so probably jeans, a purple tank top, and an over-jacket made of translucent chiffony- type fabric that would match. Also, she usually wears her hair down, unlike illustrated in the pic I drew of her. Her hair is just around the area where a bra strap would go (sorta mid-back but a bit higher), and she's got layered bangs in the front (as shown in the pic). As for shoes... uh, put her in some stylish sneakers. But, if you have a different idea clothing-wise, I say go for it. I like it when other artists take creative liberty with my characters. ^-^
