Commisson for Pixieponies

[Rainbowjuice]

So Pixieponies commissioned me and asked me to draw her beloved real-life ponies.
I think the idea was for these to eventually end up as a tattoo so my work would be basis for the tattoo artist to work form.
Exciting!

She told me she wanted them to look like her ponies but still have the cartoonish element to them. That fortunately is something I do rather well (dodges fakies)

The ponies themselves are a gorgeous Blue Roan and a Chestnut, I just about died over the chestnut. I can't even cope with how much I love them!
Pixie was wonderful and sent me TONNES of references so I could get all their markings just right.
Here are the ponies in question. (totally nabbed these pictures from this thread http://mlparena.com/mlp/index.php/topic,324009.0.html)

Ethel the blue roan.

So after sending sketches back and forth I finally managed to sit down and finish the drawing.
I'm happy that I captured these gorgeous ponies and Pixie really liked it too.

YAY!

I'm more than happy to do this for ANYONE! Just drop me a PM.
I'd forgotten how much fun it was to draw 'real' ponies for a change.
