Call Paypal to confirm and avoid a possible scam.

This is a personal project, so really no one is requiring me to do anything. And I haven't selected a T-shirt printer yet.

Umm, can I start with a hand-drawn image, import it into a digital art program, and then manipulate it from there? How should I go about that, as a beginner?

I've done that once before with Adobe Photoshop (scanned a hand-drawn image and then manipulated it). I guess I'm hoping for something that will look smoother.

I collect them too. I have the whole set except black Twilight and the swan chariot. What kills me is that I actually saw an MOC black Twilight on Ebay a few years ago, but I thought she must be a custom returned to packaging, so I didn't bid.

I know nothing at all about vectoring. How does it work?

OK all you young whipper snappers! I'm an oldschooler who needs your technical advice.

I want to create some T-shirt designs featuring animals. I can draw pretty well by hand, but I have zero experience creating digital art.

The designs I have in mind are simple and flat, no shading or anything, and will only have a few colors. Of course I still want them to look good, not pixellated or anything.

I'm not terrible with computers, but I'm definitely not good with them. I can use programs like Microsoft Publisher pretty well, and I have some experience with Adobe Photoshop and InDesign.

I can buy a new program and/or equipment to do what I want, but I don't want to spend very much. Like no more than $100 or $200. I have a decent tablet, but my computer is ancient; I really need to buy a new one.

So how do I get started? Basicly I'm looking for an easy and cheap introduction to doing basic digital art that will still look nice on a T-shirt.

Thanks!!

The erasers of Blossom, Medley, and Twilight were carded and definitely licensed; I think we all agree. But the the ones in the original pic at the top of this thread were more generic-looking. They never had symbols, and their colors didn't necessarily match those of real ponies. I think those are licensed too, but I'm not positive. I've seen them in plain clear packaging, but not on card.

Bump! Added more and lowered many prices.

I *think* they're official, but I'll wait for someone else to confirm.

Sebby would know for sure.

Wow, I had never seen those before! They do indeed look official. I even see the Hasbro logo on the card. I'd love to see that lavender Pretty Parlor! And those pony wear outfits!! That yellow one looks so interesting; I think it's a Columbian version of Abra-ca-dabra!

I haven't really started collecting Columbians yet and only have one. Something just occurred to me. Have any MOC Columbians been found? Do we know for sure if they were officially licensed from Hasbro?

Ah, "prancing!" Now I hear it! Mystery solved at last, ha ha! Thanks for finding it!!

Pony Corral / Re: Animation used in the MLP commericals
« on: August 16, 2018, 12:05:03 AM »


It must have been posted on YouTube fairly recently. (Edit: looks like it was 2016.) I had looked for that commercial before, but couldn't find it. I'm glad it hasn't been completely lost to time! FYI: I remember it showed Firefly during that "bounding/bouncing" line. Obviously "sitting" referenced Bubbles and Seashell, and "turning" was Bow-tie and Applejack.

And I'm sure you're right; that video is a compilation of the opening animations from a bunch of the early commercials under one song; must be a fan tribute.

While we're on the subject of lost commercials from the early days, I remember an alternate version of the So Soft commercial. It still showed Baby Lickety Split snuggling with Wind Whistler saying, "I love nuzzling up to you, Wind Whistler; you're so soft!" So it was mostly the same. But this one also included video of a pretty blond teenage girl in a dress petting a light gray horse. I grew up in Missouri, so it must have aired there.
