Description NEW REFERENCE CAN BE FOUND HERE: 

Okay, so this one took me a lot of time to do, and I think it'll have some updates. Maybe. 
I also decided to update Drawin's cutiemark, in case you've noticed, since the older one looked too complicated for me recently, so I decided to make it more colorful and simple. Also, comparing to the Older Reference  I changed Drawin's Haloween costume to a "Corrupted" version of her, which is also known as "Discorded" version, since I decided to re-watch Season 2, first two episodes, and I just felt like drawing it.

Speaking of Drawin's BIO, there is a lot of things that I haven't thought completely 'till the end, but I really don't want to change Drawin's BIO all that much, so I'll just leave the general information about her as it is, and change the details that I feel like changing.


General info/ BIO:
.:The Past:.
Drawin was born in a family of regular pegasy pony, that lived in Crystal Empire a few years before it disappeared, due to King Sombra's curse. Growing as a younger sister to DrawingDark  she didn't know how to have a single trouble in life. Most of her childhood she spent with her friends that she used to meet at Crystal Fair each year; Way, Derrator, Ferret and Heavyrain.
When she came to the age of 15 the attack on the Crystal Empire has occurred, what made it disappear in the end, and, for Drawin, to loose her memory about everything that happened to her since she was born, and then wake up in a hospital after nearly one thousand years later, due to an accident that happened during the casting of the curse on the Empire, that made her jump in time, to the future, and not get older for even a year, but, sadly, make her memory about her family, childhood and friends disappear.


Maybe I'll draw a short comic about Drawin's past... Who knows...


I used to make Drawin interact with Sombra, since in her old BIO, when the Empire was attacked, Drawin got under Sombra's spell and become on of his army commanders! D:

Thank you^^
I think I enjoyed drawing all of them equally. Maybe the crystal, the gala and the casual one are my most favorite

Oh, cool! I think the corrupted one is my favorite. I don't know why, but I think it's cool to see a totally different side of a character that we would never see normally. Not sure if this makes sense ^^

Who and what is Suffix? Just curious. 
And regarding my comment asking who Drawin was on the art you submitted today... Guess I found her!
[Maybe you should make a link to this one on that one?]

whatevstu In reply to Starship-VGer [2017-04-27 05:12:12 +0000 UTC]

Suffix is a pup, mix of a fox and a dog, additionally; Drawin's pet and best friend.

The references you've seen today were actually uploaded a long time ago, I just updated them with new character descriptions. Now I just need to change some details in their designs so their char. descriptions will make 100% sense, because those designs and their old bios I've updated tightly following their stories back from 2013 when they were first created.
I keep updating those four characters from time to time, when I come up with newer versions of stories for them.

Also, I thought I added a link to Drawin's reference there...
Hmm, maybe I'm mistaken, my bad!

She just found her in forest and decided to take care of her, because Suffix was very tiny and alone.

Oh my God, I love both the backstory and designs! Her regular outfit is really nice, and the corrupted one reminds me of psychopathic characters, oooh I love it! The gala dress is prefect as always ^3^
I know I haven't commented in a while, I'm sorry.. I kinda cut myself off the fandom for a while, it's complicated. But I'm back!

Yeah, I know this trend of creating a bad personality to your OC or something like that. In this case it's not Drawin's dark personality, but her kinda discorded version like it was in season 2 of MLP.
And it's okay, glad to see you're back^^

AndaluzjaZZA In reply to whatevstu [2017-04-25 07:39:40 +0000 UTC]

Kiko had a discorded version too, I don't think I ever drew her but..she exists XD normally she would be the element of care, and while discorded, she would be the element of apathy, I think.
And dark personalities are cool, even though they're overrated

I think that's just my bad, since I couldn't create a more detailed and well-thought winter outfit..

You're welcome, but I was just wondering, how do you do the crystal pony effect? I know how to change the transparency to mimic a part of the effect, but I don't know how to make it seem shiny or polished with facets...

whatevstu In reply to gallop-free [2016-10-23 21:59:58 +0000 UTC]

It's a pretty simple Photoshop transperacy and brushes thing; I created a star shaped pattern brush and just added it on the pony with one click, erased a bit with soft edged circle brush so it will fit the shape of the pony better and not will be like a circle of stars around it, and here it is. I also changed the transperacy for a bit, so it will look more matural, but those are only details.

Count-Monsparkle [2016-09-19 17:21:59 +0000 UTC]

Awesome, your OC has a really well-developed backstory and I also really like her overall design (good idea to simplify her cutie mark, it makes her look even more realistic)

I actually liked the idea that she was a commander in Sombra's army, but you would have to argue a bit more why Sombra made her a commander in the first place. I don't think he just chose random citizens and appointed them commander It would be interesting to know what made Drawin stand out to him. But if you want to cut out that part, it's fine ^^

The whole time-travelling thing seems a little convoluted though. If you bring time travel into the mix, you should also share the details with us: What "accident" happened? Were other ponies also affected or was it just Drawin? Was the "future" that Drawin was sent to exactly those 1000 years later or was she sent even further into a distant future? What happened in that future and how did she get back? Also, if Sombra was responsible behind the accident, then it might be a good idea to keep Drawin as his commander, otherwise it wouldn't make much sense that she was even near him. Maybe I'm overthinking this, but these are all questions I ask myself when I read that part of the bio

whatevstu In reply to Count-Monsparkle [2016-09-19 18:00:39 +0000 UTC]

Speaking of Time Traveling stuff - I just wanted to write the summary of the entire story of Drawin here, and maybe later write her full story somewhere else or create a short comic about it, I'm still thinking about it. 
The main thing that all of you need to know now is that there was some kind of accident/mistake that affected only Drawin, or maybe somepony else, that made her loose her memory and jump through time in the future.

And as for the reason why Drawin became a commander, to be honest I actually never thought of it, because this idea is pretty old by now, and I created it when I wasn't that much of a detailed thinker.. Maybe now I'll start thinking on the reason for this, or maybe you have your own ideas?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Count-Monsparkle In reply to whatevstu [2016-09-19 20:02:08 +0000 UTC]

I'm definitively interested to see where this is going (I thought I knew your OC pretty well by now, but this is the first time I've heard about that time-travel stuff )

As for a reason why Sombra could've gotten an interest in Drawin: Maybe she and her friends did something big in the empire? I mean like some kind of prank that backfired and caused a big mess. Or maybe they tried a rebellious act against Sombra? Either way, they could've been captured and brought to Sombra, and he could've seen some kind of potential in Drawin or something. Again, I don't know your OC's too well, so I don't know if something like that would even make sense given the circumstances, but I can't think of anything better atm ^^

whatevstu In reply to Count-Monsparkle [2016-09-20 08:49:42 +0000 UTC]

The reason why neither you, nor Monsparkle don't know anything about Drawin is because she has nothing to tell, due to her memory loss!

Well, I got all the time in the world to think about all of the details, but thanks anyway, these suggestions might help me while thinking^^

Pony-from-Everfree [2016-09-19 16:00:45 +0000 UTC]

Interesting bio, though didn't the ponies of Crystal Empire got their memories back after Sombra's defeat? Also, when did she get her cutie mark?  

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

whatevstu In reply to Pony-from-Everfree [2016-09-19 16:24:03 +0000 UTC]

But Drawin is not a pure-blooded crystal pony, she was just born in there, and neither of her parents are crystal ponies as well, so her memory was never restored.
And, as much as it sounds ridiculous, she got her cutiemark when she was yet a filly. Her cutiemark brought confusion not only to herself, since she had no idea what the heck is a gamepad, but also to her friends and family, because they had no idea what the heck is a gamepad as well!

Her cutiemark actually has a much deeper meaning than just games and drawing, since there are three types of cutiemarks; the ones that talk about pony's talent, the ones about destiny and last - their personality (it's a really long cutiemark research that I've read when I've been making up Drawin's cutiemark, and I remember how much detailed thoughts I put in it when I was creating it..^^).

Anyway, Drawin's cutiemark stands not for 100% for her special talent, which is theoretically assumed as playing games and drawing from the first sight of it, but it's actually stands more for destiny of hers.
The gamepad stands for her destiny as accidentally appearing in the future and rejoining her old friends in there (the buttons of the gamepad are colored as a hint to my male OC's), and the pencil stands for "Drawing your life since the beginning, by using a tiny fractions of the past".

If you want me to rumble more about it, I can..

Pony-from-Everfree In reply to whatevstu [2016-09-19 16:47:56 +0000 UTC]

Hm, that's an interesting theory

And... wow. Such a well-though cutie mark! It just sits my friends quote. "Art isn't what you draw, it's how you reason it." Though she meant it in more satiric way when we were visiting an art gallery, but it's still true

Sure ^^ If you want to,  I'll gladly read it!
