Big Apple Ponycon mascot anthro ponies roughs1 ( tasteful nudes )

WIP!

Been wanting to draw the pony mascots for Big Apple Ponycon ever since I first saw them. But nope, I'm NOT drawing them in their regular pony forms. Not happening! NOPITY NOPE!

I don't know why, but I can just see Cabbie as a big and built Percheron, like a big, hard working, slightly intimidating looking pony who is really just a big sweetheart of a teddy bear. I may have to hold back on the feathering around his hooves, though, if that's the case. Besides, he's a New York City cabbie, he's GOTTA be tough!

Liberty comes across as a super bubbly, caffeine induced kinda gal who would be the one to drag Cabbie and Bowtie into problematic situations. I'd imagine her personality is kinda like that of Amelia Wil Tesla Seyruun from Slayers.

Bowtie, VERY classy, hoity toity-ish, LOVES glam and glitz ( oh goodness, you know I'm going to have fun drawing future pictures of this boy. X3 ).


And no worries, they won't remain nekkid. Because the project I'm entering this in to once it's finished MUST be PG-13, I WILL be designing clothing for all three ponies, and making sure they don't parade around Brooklyn in their skivvies. Though I'm ALL for tasteful nudes, one must be careful when it comes to totally PG-13 situations.


That being said, does anyone want to help me come up with ideas for their clothing?


Sketched in ArtRage Studio. And I plan on doing as much of this piece as possible on Livestream. The final inks and colors will be done using TRADITIONAL mediums, however, so unless I can get my hands on video editing software ( because Windows Movie Maker was never put into Windows 7... darn you, Microsoft! ), you might not see that process.

I love the different personalities shining through within their expressions and poses, I look forward to see it all finished!

Thanks! I'm really having fun with this, since it's something I personally want to work on, aaand to be honest... well, when I saw Bowtie's character design, my old yaoi fangirl in me kicked in and I had to had to HAD TO draw him in my anthro style.

I keep seeing with a body type similar to how I normally draw my own unicorn boy, Ellis, with the exception of the ears and feet ( Ellis has normal three toe feet, and long low laying ears ).

I honestly did not want to stop working on this last night, but I had to get to sleep semi early so I could catch a train into NYC for a brony meet the next day.

For some reason I see Bow Tie in a tux with tails or a morning coat type.  Bit guy in the middle reminds me more of an overalls type and the lady, something shiny and short.
