My Piece For Lucky4leafclover

[Erinsgobragh]

So the past few days I have been working on a piece for Lucky4leafclover. She asked for her pony Lucky to be painting stars. I thought it's be cute to have her painting them on Apple Blossom's rump to give her a temp Cutie Mark lol.


What do you think?

Wow!! I just love this one!

That's so cute - both the concept and the realisation! Applebloom looks very happy getting a cutie mark, even if temporary. ^-^

If I may add a word of critique, Lucky's proportions are slightly off - I know G4 heads are always big compared to their bodies, but in this case it looks like the head is closer to the viewer than the rest of her body, the hind legs in particular. Maybe lengthening the hind legs and giving her a bigger bum (sorry Lucky, lol) would fix the issue. Also the right front leg is attached a bit too high. But these are just points to keep in mind for future, I don't think you'd need to go through the effort of changing this picture - like I said, it looks adorable as it is, and the viewer's attention is drawn to their faces and Applebloom's cutie mark anyway like you intended.

I'm sure Lucky will love it!

Thanks for the comments Griffin I actually took Lucky's position off of a still from one of the episodes of MLP FIM so if you want to critique the realism talk to the animators on the show. I normally got through the episodes then find pony positions and sketch off of them. Just like you do off of a photo of a real animal.

Ah, ok. Their bad, then. But you do use the still pics as reference for sketch and not tracing, I understand? You can always do a better job than the original artists if that's the case.

Lol. Yes I sketch from the stills. And true I could correct non realism, but it is a cartoon after all

It looks really cute, I like the concept

A green star would fit the day better, but OTOH the pink matches AB more than green would. Cute picture.
