Title: Help me define my Pony!
Post by: aerieberry on August 18, 2012, 02:04:52 PM
Hi guys!

I have a pony OC and she is very precious to me. Her name is Gray Day. She's essentially my personality incarnated in pony with some extra fictional touches. Gray Day is a bit of a troublemaker, she likes to make cloud shapes in the sky for other ponies to enjoy. She works as a storm herder over Equestria. She is a little mischievous, tomboy-ish and always very strong-minded. I wanted to see if anyone wanted to try their hand at doodling her, and/or designing her some accessories? Maybe a gala dress?

Here she is!

Important features.. :
Two silver hoops in each ear.
Cutie mark is a cloud wirl and some raindrops (early doodles didn't have the raindrops).
She keeps her tail in that sort of poofed ponytail.
She does have a small braid on one side within her mane.
Love weathermaking.

I'd love to see your take on this! <3

Lovely character and I really love your colouring style! All those drawings are so neat and crisp.

I'll have to see if I have the time to make some quick doodles. Would you mind a differenent gen style? My style is pretty heavily G1 influenced, I have made a few G4-ish attempts but they're still pretty far from the FiM style. :P

Wow your drawings are lovely.  Sadly I do not draw ponies well, horses yes ponies no.

Oh not at all! I love all generations! I'd be curious to see her as a g1! :3

And thank you for your sweet words. I take pride in my marker/ink drawings. I'm actually illustrating a children's book with a similar style, so it's encouraging to see that people enjoy it! I wish I had something more handy then my Blackberry to take pictures though!

What a lovely ponysona!  Her colors are beautiful and you draw her with so much life  :)  And the coloring is so smooth!

You might poke over to the Adoptables forum to see if any open threads strike your fancy or check out the commissions artist thread at the top of this forum.

I really like your pony's design and your pics are so clean! She's adorable and I would love to try my hand at drawing her... Would you mind terribly if I put socks on her? Since... that's kinda my thing at the moment. LOL If not I can easily draw her without the socks. XD

Do you have a pony OC or a favorite pony? I might be able to doodle you something (though I am terribly slow!) <3

Gray Day is adorable. If I remember, I'll see what I can come up with for her.

Your drawings are fantastic! I suck at drawing compared to your gorgeous drawings but I hope some of the other talented artists can whip something up for you ^.^
