Title: Draw Together Summer Revival! This month: ★Cool Breeze!★
Post by: ponyqueen on July 12, 2016, 09:05:01 AM: Dust off those crayons, colored pencils, chalk, oil pastels, watercolors, acrylics, oil paints, gel pens, markers, and styluses...
It's time to draw together! No muss no fuss- just an excuse to flex your creative muscles. Post your art in this thread for heaps of confidence building compliments on your artwork (and maybe even general some interest in commissions and art trades!)

Get the picture? (See what I did there?)

Ready, set, create!! :art:

I missed these so much.
IMHO, Cool Breeze is the winger ponies' queen! Wingers are very small, so their royalty wear jewelry made of twigs and flowers.
Also, Moon Jumper is CB's royal adviser. I'll put her under a spoiler...

Post by: retrogradenova on July 13, 2016, 02:41:32 PM: I had been wondering if there would be any more of these. Here's a little piece I did last night (sorry my scanner is being cranky) :

Thank you! Though I've never actually drawn butterfly wings before. Looking at them now they feel really flat to me. I think you, Bekuno, and Sapphire Rain did a much better job getting them to be more dynamic and lifelike than I did. I had a lot of trouble with the wings connection point. Though the overall pose was really strange to draw, it was my first time trying to draw pony proportions instead of horse ones, I'm thinking I didn't quite hit it on the back legs. They might be too short. If I have time this week I'm might take another crack at those parts.

Post by: DressesForBrushables on July 14, 2016, 12:04:10 PM: A Draw Together? Yes!

retrogradenova: There are so many details! Really impressive!

Bekuno: /)*3*(\ That pose is perfection, and the second cutie mark on the face is super duper cute!

Sapphire Rain: Love the accessories and the hair

I've changed my art style 3 times since the last one of these^^. Really happy with how that turned out :D

Post by: retrogradenova on July 14, 2016, 12:39:39 PM: DressesForBrushables! Those wings are gorgeous and the stars in the eyes are so cute! It makes me so happy that i can see the spots from the wing behind through the front wing, I can't even explain it. :)

Dresses- oo I love the way you went big with her wings!
Title: Re: Draw Together Summer Revival! This month: ★Cool Breeze!★
Post by: retrogradenova on July 14, 2016, 02:49:07 PM: Shaiyeh, I love her eyes and how her mane has so much movement to it.

Post by: Lore-Lei on July 15, 2016, 12:01:29 PM: I'm only posting a sketch this time because this is super experimental. Like, 'fresh off the reverse-engineering table' type of experimental.

It was extremely difficult for me to get it done somewhat close enough to Melowy's style. The whole thing was basically a lot of reckless, big lines which I'm not used to at all. I'm kinda happy with how she turned out though.
Title: Re: Draw Together Summer Revival! This month: ★Cool Breeze!★
Post by: retrogradenova on July 15, 2016, 12:03:50 PM: She's adorable Lore-Lei. I love her tail. And looking at her, she gives me this girl next door kinda feel.
Title: Re: Draw Together Summer Revival! This month: ★Cool Breeze!★
Post by: Shaiyeh on July 15, 2016, 12:32:29 PM: Lore-lei, she's looking really cute! I love her facial expression!
Title: Re: Draw Together Summer Revival! This month: ★Cool Breeze!★
Post by: ponyqueen on July 15, 2016, 12:38:30 PM: Lore-lei- what a leggy gal! I love the long tresses.
Title: Re: Draw Together Summer Revival! This month: ★Cool Breeze!★
Post by: Lore-Lei on July 15, 2016, 01:46:54 PM: Oh my God, thank you so much for all the kind words. I didn't expect so many so quick, this means so much to me!

Post by: aluke on July 15, 2016, 08:26:34 PM: We have until the end of the month right? Tossing a WiP here so I'll be committed to finishing. ^.^

cutegladgirl- welcome to the draw together! Sorry I missed visiting at the fair- next year I really should spend more time at my own booth so people know who i am... but I was shopping so much! :lol: The pose you made for Cool Breeze is so nice- a very natural easy gait! And pro job on that eye- keep up the good work! ^.^

Thanks. I kept walking back to the shop often at the fair so it's understandable. :-D It's just so much fun.

Post by: MsMedley on July 25, 2016, 07:39:11 AM: Thanks for reviving this, ponyqueen! And a month to have the time to draw seems more doable ;)
I used her back card art as my reference. So much green! :)

Post by: ponyqueen on July 25, 2016, 09:19:08 AM: Excellent! Medley's art!! I thought I'd have more time to chat at the fair- hugs! Next time I'm seriously going to do less shopping, and more socializing!

Can't go wrong with classic backcard-art style. It's lovely! Definitely frame-able. :biggrin:

Phew! I had to take a break after the fair >_< But now I feel better, and I'm excited to screw around and draw whatever I want now that I'm not worrying about just making things for the fair ;)
Title: Re: Draw Together Summer Revival! This month: ★Cool Breeze!★
Post by: ponyqueen on July 31, 2016, 05:24:17 PM: So nice, Dainty! She looks so playful- I can see her in the sky with other wingers and butterflies. :)
