Ask Cloudsdale Fillies ‘Hug-A-Pegasus’ Mini-Contest!

Who wants to have their OC/blog character hugged? No one? Well fine, I never liked you anyway. BUT IF YOU DID! Here’s your chance!

To celebrate 550+ followers, I’m starting a small contest! Why? Because I like playing follow the leader and have no original ideas of my own, that’s why! Don’t judge me.

Anyway, the rules are listed below as well as the generic and not-so-spectacular ‘prize’ you could win! Because something is better than nothing, right? No? Well, whatever, it’s happening anyway.

Rules:

• You must reblog this post!
• You MUST choose a filly pegasus! I won’t accept ‘any of them’ or similar answers, so be specific!
• You must be a follower! This is a thank you to you guys after all!
• You can choose any pegasus filly you please!

The winners will get their OC or blog character drawn getting a hug from the filly of their choice! Wow, THAT’S A LOW PRICE!

Don’t look at me like that, I told you there wasn’t much I could offer. It’s just a fun little something to celebrate all of the awesome people who raised my self-esteem and got me back into drawing when I was on the verge of giving up. I honestly appreciate you guys, and I wish I could offer more than just a simple sketch of your character and a filly. But oh well, may as well offer something, amirite?

Deadline:

• This contest ends Friday, April 12th, so you have one week to enter. Should be plenty of time, yes? Yes,
• The winners will be chosen randomly via a name generator. Gotta give a chance to everyone! I promise to keep it fair.

Well, that’s about all I can think of right now. Hopefully I didn’t forget anything important, but for now I think we’re good.

Have fun guys! And thanks again for all the love!

GIMME THAT RAINBOW DASH

I haven’t posted non-Cloudsdale Fillies art in a while so… here, have a quick Sweetie Belle. The sketchiness makes it look like she’s wearing shades instead of glasses. She would be a little badass and wear shades indoors ‘cuz ain’t nobody gonna tell Sweetie what she can’t do son.

PC inspired. I should do more.

:D

Welp. Here are some of my favorites from that massive pile of junk.

1. Early before PC was PC, I was already creating a headcanon for a future CMC. This early Apple Bloom was less shy and more meticulous. She retains her pickyness in fashion in current PC, but it’s less obvious.
2. When I was starting to vector, I sketched some things so I can practice on them. This was one of them. I never finished the vector, but I did do the Twilight in the background.
3. These are actually little drawings I did for an old comic. In this era, I’d photoshop them out, then created panels and stitched together in PowerPoint. >_<
4. Yes. I used to ship ScootaBelle. I kinda still do, but it’s not so prevalent.
5. More pre-PC stuff. Here, you can see the original personalities I had for them. This is dated to January 2012.
6. I wanted to see how much ponies I could draw before I burned out. Here’s the Mane Six.
7. …and here’s the CMC, Spike, Diamond Tiara, and Silver Spoon.
8. This was drawn up before “Hearts and Hooves” aired. I was working on a comic based on what I thought was going to happen in the episode. I would’ve finished it, but then the episode got leaked. -_-
9. Here’s more pre-PC stuff. I had that RD knew Scoots before they were ever in Ponyville. I sucked at displaying ages, so Scoots is really 3 years old here, and was still with her parents. In PC, Scoots fell from Cloudsdale when trying to run away from an abusive foster father. She lives, and RD finds her. She recognizes Scoots from the past, which is why she rushed her to the hospital  in Ponyville. This is one of the oldest ideas from PC that’s still canon to this day.
10. On DA, they had a group where artists tried drawing according to a theme. In this case is was “blue ponies (as in sad)”. I wanted to be literal, and this idea was born. Unfortunately, I never finished it.

So there. Never before seen art from the silly PC guy. Enjoy.

One Bad Apple Song

This song… is now the first pony song going on my phone. I love it!

The Pinkie clones repeating “fun” over and over again made this idea materialize.

I REGRET NOTHING! *hides under bed covers*

Sweetie and Spettro

So I drew that funky living shadow pet in a glass ball. I’m not sure why Sweetie would actually want that thing as a pet. Maybe because a pet rock was too boring?

Oh, and don’t forget that futuristic magical leash. It looks like they’re fighting with lasers.

Dinky: So then everypony will now you’re mine~

((This was just a normal doodle but I liked it too much not edit!

It came out a little bit too much like Post-Crusade, granted he uses a minimalist style which is my favorite, if you haven’t realized that the minis are like that))

I see you…

((It’s adorable! ^o^))

Paper Rarity!

Wasn’t as hard as I thought it would. But still a challenge.
