Description More pony fanart (you saw this coming, right??) It won't be the last of it either. I just had to draw Lunacorn (my OC) with Fluttershy too, because she's my absolute fave from the show, and also because I have pretty much the same personality, fears and quirks as Fluttershy does. Here Luna and 'Shy are being introduced to each others' "pets", with Angel Bunny begrudgingly shaking Luna's hoof (after much convincing), and Actias (Luna's pet moth), flying straight over to greet Fluttershy's cutie mark rather than 'Shy herself, much to her amusement.

Btw, will be selling prints and the original of this at Coscon as well as the original of "Luna Amicitia" , if anyone is interested.

Note: Fluttershy & Angel Bunny are © HASBRO and , and both chars are done in my own version of the FiM style, so my apologies if they don't look exactly as they do on the show.

Your OC is beautiful. I love the way you've drawn Fluttershy... It may not be the shows/fyre-flye's style, but it's lovely, and perfect, in my opinion. I love that you've included the 'mare in the moon'.

Thank you, dearest! I'll be drawing Big Mac with Onyx (Sayh's OC) next, and another one of Flutterfly (can't resist!), and probably one of Princess Luna and Celestia together. May even draw Doctor Whooves!

Oh coolies! I can't wait to see how Big Mac and Onyx turns out Fluttershy's my favourite as well And yay!! Doctor Whooves!

I need to draw my OC ponies more, sometime

hollyann In reply to swandog [2011-09-25 02:31:18 +0000 UTC]

I've drawn them each once before, but that's about it I'll have to see what I can come up with, because other than the concept drawings I've come up with them, I really don't know much about them other than that

swandog In reply to Jo-san [2011-09-24 16:24:49 +0000 UTC]

I use colored pencils over my markers and a whole lot of "burnishing". I also had to use the smudge tool on a few places where the pencil coloring came out a bit grainy-looking in the scan.

I love how you've done the hair. The thick black lines give it a bit of a stained class look.
Very beautiful <3

swandog In reply to gifdot [2011-09-24 16:23:01 +0000 UTC]

Thanks; I really appreciate it! In all honesty, I was rather disappointed at how dark the lines came out, because they aren't that dark/bold in the original. But when I digitally adjusted the colors to make them a bit more saturated (they were very washed-out looking in the raw scan), the outlines all got darker too, but I didn't know how to fix that.

I like them better this way anyway. And the night coloring!! Oh my gosh!!

swandog In reply to bluefantasy [2011-09-24 16:19:33 +0000 UTC]

Aww, thank you! (The night coloring was quite a challenge, because I really suck at doing shadows and lighting, but I need the practice!) D:

This is SO CUTE! Fluttershy is my favorite too XD It's so neat to see this in your own version of the style, so pretty! X3

swandog In reply to foxy-yazoo [2011-09-24 16:18:09 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much!! <3<3<3 I really love Flutter's design on the show, and was really torn on whether I should draw her that way, or in my own style, but since I was adding Luna to the pic, and can't help but draw Luna in my own way, I thought it might look odd to have two very different styles in the pic...So I drew them both in my own style.

swandog In reply to gay-spaceman [2011-09-24 16:14:48 +0000 UTC]

If you would like to crop part of the image to use as an icon or something, you are welcome to use Fluttershy and/or Angel, but since Lunacorn is my own personal OC, I'm afraid I can't allow her to be used as someone else's ID. I'm very flattered that you like the image enough to want to use it as that, though!

Though I'm not a big MLP fan these days, I really do like the way you combined their stylization with your own sense of dazzle.
