Due to only have two digits, I always think that the ponies just use binary as their default interface with computers, as oppose to just common spoken language.

Yes, it makes no sense and would be completely cumbersome, but it's funny to think of it that way.

At first I didn't think TV tropes had a good page to link for this comic, but figured I'd check just to add onto it.

And of course they had one. They always have to have something somewhat relevant.

No.... TV Tropes is the worst place for learning in the history of ever. Sure, its good for a background check on something, but most of it is infodumping barf. My advice to dash would be, Stick to the method you learned in the episode. It's a lot better. (Picture is awesome By the by.)

The idea was that it's meant to be kind of ironic.

Yes, TV tropes is a very clear and good example of a Tangential Learning method done well; as case by it's reputation.

...but at the same time...

No, this is a terrible place to go to learn because it's something that would almost always hurt anyone trying to study and learn for a test; as case by it's reputation.

Where has your art style been all my life? Just found your work for the first time today, and I'm getting a vibe of classic Disney crossed with Sibsy-esque going on in my head and I love it!

Zookz25 In reply to DangerCloseArt [2014-04-10 08:14:17 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. I look up to both Disney artists and Sibsy's work.

Looking at it now I wish I inked this one, but did I kept the pencil-work relatively solid it works well enough for what it is.

I'm planning on taking commissions sometime soon as well (I actually want to try and make some money to take a trip to Galacon, which would be my first convention), and any support from people who like my work is very much welcome.

DangerCloseArt In reply to Zookz25 [2014-04-10 22:51:55 +0000 UTC]

I don't normally go for art commissions (after having just dropped a bunch on a plushie commission >_>), but every fan must attend a convention at least once! And I hear Galacon is a great one!Β 

But you're style is so fun, so maybe I'll make an exception when you get around to it haha ^_^

I love TVTropes! It sucks you in and keeps you there for hours. Soon, you begin to use Tropespeak and all is lost.

MrSpanyard In reply to Wertyla [2014-04-09 22:30:24 +0000 UTC]

Relax, tropes are tools. Tropes are not bad.

Plus, makes you realise reality is not realistic sometimes and helps you avoid clichΓ©s.
Tropespeak is just a secondary effect of all the information you are learning.

Wertyla In reply to MrSpanyard [2014-04-13 01:41:39 +0000 UTC]

I never said tropes were bad. In fact, TVTropes is really fun. It's just that if you get too far into it, you suddenly see EVERYTHING as Trope X, Y or Z.

Uh, I guess I have to do it... because you don't explain the joke.

I was tropespeaking too I got what you said. And the fact several people are editing it makes it more complete and objective.
It's just that some tropes have awful names. (Just eat Galligan, Miles Gloriosus, Jade-Colored Glasses,Β What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?, etc because I can't stop reading those articles)

And you know you are addicted when you make your own trope list of your fanfic... Lame.

Honestly, I feel a bit lazy because I didn't bother inking it at all.

Still, I like doing linkwork on paper instead of my tablet. It's just more intuitive for me and gives that nice sketchy look. Though I could use an actual nice camera with proper lighting for it instead of a phone picture while sitting in my bed, lol.

For paintings I stick to the tablet in photoshop, much more convenient and easy.

Zookz25 In reply to Crescent-Sketch [2014-04-11 13:24:27 +0000 UTC]

Do you have a pen tablet/display? Photoshop really only works well for drawing when you have that. I'd also suggest trying out traditional painting at least once. It really gave me perspective on how to approach painting after all of the time I'd spent failing at painting in photoshop.

I do have a drawing tablet, I'm just not very good with it, and I've been wanting to try actual painting for a while now, I just haven't gotten the time

This is just a repost of a previous reply for the same question:

She's just an avatar I use for things like games or worlds from TV and movies (basically an OC of sorts, not just for pony though). Here are a few different doodles of her:

:/ That joke about people being trapped on tvtropes got old quite some time ago.
I mean, okay, so maybe it's an interesting site but from what I've read about it it's something like wikipedia - can't be that addicting.

Let's 'bust that internet myth' once and for all people!

Go to that tvtropes page, read maybe four or five articles and then come back here, and post comments right before you start and when you come back.
I'll do that as well now. See you in five minutes.
