Title: Drew my OC! G4 Seapony on phone
Post by: Princess Lala on August 25, 2016, 07:31:47 AM

Hey there, I havnt posted anything in a while but today Id like to drop a quick post about some digital art I made! So I can only seem to draw digitally with Sketch Pro and a stylus on my phone, that seems to be the most comfortable for me. Forgive me for watermarking the heck our of this, im scared of art theft!

Anyways, here is my Seapony! Her name is Aria after my real middle name. Seahorses are very special to me so I wanted a seapony persona years ago. I just randomly decided to draw her today! I was working on a fanfiction of her that I have been neglecting for years, its called "The Little Maremaid, the tale of the seapony named Aria" she can turn into a unicorn to walk on land using her gem and a spell! Her amulet is based off my engagment ring which was a pink sapphire heart facet in sterling silver. I modeled her after my fake anime red hair lol and my blue eyes. I decided to make her pink since that is my favorite color!

Im still a newbie at digital art but I hope ya'll like her! I drew her 100% freehand and took pictures of the steps in case people are interested. I took a picture of a drawing I made of her with pencil and used 3 layers on SketchPro to give her color!

Id love to have art commissioned of her someday! I am just happy to finally have her design on paper and on my phone! :P

Very pretty, I love the volume in her hair and the personal touches like the amulet based on your ring. She looks very 'you'  ;)

Sounds like she's a really good expression of your character traits! Love all the little details :) I don't think I've ever seen a sea ponysona before, and she's so pretty to look at, too ^.^

Oh whoa she is so beautiful and sparkly! I love how she can turn into a unicorn on land using her gem, that's a great idea ^_^ I am curious: when she is in her unicorn form, does she have a cutie mark?

Thank you all so much!!!!! Your comments are inspiring me to draw more of her in different art forms!

@Goanna Yes actually, the gem is her cutie mark for her unicorn formI! I had this idea that it lights up whever she wants to turn back into human, and then takes on a psychical form of jewelry. its her "heart of the sea" like from Titanic. xD Im still working on her unicorn design so it isnt finalized quite yet!  Her viking inspired braclet (with the waves!) also turns into a bangle on one of her back legs!

 Im super excited to start drawing and having her commissioned! Waiting for some to open!

Oh wow. Can't believe this was drawn on your phone. I'll have to see if this program is available for my Kindle. I love everything about this drawing. The design and colors and show accurate style are really pleasing to the eye and I love the background you came up with for her.

Oh wow, thank ya'l lagain!  :blush:

Yes I really did draw her on my phone! I will be posting more pictures later since I feel like doing more art! The app I used is totally free, the only thing I dontvlike about it is sometimes you need to pinch the screen to zoom and scroll over. Ive got it on my tablet too now so I have a bigger screen to work on!

I want to draw her in the painted IDW cover style!

Here is the drawing I made on paper! I orginally intended her to have side-swept hair instead of curly bangs but it was hard for me to draw her lines perfect so I went with curls!
