Description
I finally got around to doing Twilight Sparkle!I'm really happy with how she came out in this.
And sorry for the messy edges. I'll try to go in later and color those in so it doesn't look so strange. haha
Next: Apple Jack!
All done in Copic Markers

Wow this is wonderful! You really captured her so well, not many people can draw human!ponies very accurately. Fantastic job!

Thank you so much!
I try to look at pictures from the show of the actual ponies while drawing them as humans, that way I feel like I am keeping close to who they are.
I just dislike how people draw them in super short skirts or shirts showing cleavage or their stomachs. Especially Twilight Sparkle, because I feel like she would definitely be modest with her clothes.

Yep, I am the same!
Oh I totally agree! There's nothing wrong with sexualizing a character so long as it fits to the character. Someone like Twilight Sparkle would never be seen in something like that. It's very OOC and I dislike it when people draw her like that, too. Even Rarity--she is a very classy pony and when people draw her as a human in short dresses it irks me. She'd be one to wear long gowns and hugely exaggerated dresses and hats, not skimpy clothing. There is nothing wrong with anyone dressed like that, but it's ridiculous when some people draw a character in outfits like that who would never wear such a thing!

Exactly! I can probably see Rarity wearing a v-neck dress top or dress, but nothing more revealing than that. I can see her wearing a dress like this [link] and it suit her personality. But when I first thought of Rarity in human form I imagined something like Audrey Hepburn's dress from Breakfast at Tiffany's on her.

Oh definitely! With a pair of pumps or even pointed heels. GOSH I really want to draw human!ponies now. I need to actually FINISH one. I've started two before, an appledash one and another of Rarity, in PSG style but I haven't finished them. ;---; My friend was supposed to color the appledash one but she's been swamped with projects so I might end up doing it myself.
Also, you should totally draw that.

We are on the same page then. haha
She would most definitely wear some awesome heels! I can almost see her in some fancy flat shoes, but heels are more her style.
And I'd love to see that Rarity in the PSG style! She'd probably be like Barby, but with a better personality. lol

Valen-LaRae In reply to froggiefroggie [2012-04-12 04:43:39 +0000 UTC]
Nah, I don't even know where it disappeared to. I usually sketch on scrap pieces of paper and they just hide themselves in various piles of artwork and paper. haha
But I definitely plan on drawing her again interacting with all the other ponies.

Thank you! I tried to create a bit more movement in this one. I almost want to go back and redo my Rainbow Dash now, but I have to make the rest of the ponies first.
