MCR Mar 2016: Look What I Can Do

As commissioned by Apple Senior... I think. Boy, it's been so long. So much work.

But yes. I'm still here! Hopefully we can have next month's MCR on time!

Sneak Peek: EfCE Episode 20 (aka April Foals Day)

I can think of no better way to bring the kid into the blog.

SPOILER - Sneak Peek: YOUR TURN!

THE BABY WANTS SOMETHING. PROBABLY.

Keep the baby in the soundproof orb, hand baby to wife.

SPOILERS - Sneak Peek: P...sicles

Pawpsicles. It's kinda a spoiler I guess. I have since seen Zootopia and am one of the cool kids now.

This is also after I made some modifications to the vectors I've been using, so they're now more vibrant.

SPOILERS - Sneak Peek: Off With That! (Working Title)

That Sunburst. Who does he think he is with that atrocious goatee, those glasses and that ridiculous cloak?!

Sneak Peek: EfCE Episode 19

So we are just barely a week away from the season premiere.

I'm discontented with the lack of the involvement of the grandparents.

Sneak Peek: Always Beside You

awwwww...

Sneak Peek: Meet Me In Manehattan

The product of a couple hours over days of work. Starburst, a kiss in Manehattan.

Also that I've heard (spoilers) that they'll look different come season 6, but I will stick to their looks for now.

Sneak Peek: Twilight Sparkle: Science Twilight Ver.

Remember when we knew her as Science Twilight, and started to speculate? Good times.

WIP: Judy Hopps Illustrator Test

I haven't seen Zootopia yet, but I needed to get into the action. So I bought the tie-in book "Big Trouble in Little Rodentia" because the art was very pretty. I used it, amongst other stuff, for reference.

Much like my other stuff, including the EQG and Star Vs, work, she is a working vector model and posable. 

Behind the Scenes: Chasing Clouds

SURPRISE! The duo on Cloud 9 was supposed to be Flash and Twilight, but I did too many of those recently and decided I swapped it out. What's why I vectored Thunderlane (and Flitter)  in the first place.

Sneak Peek: Birdwatching (Final)

From the video a couple days back, now in proper physical form.

Rumble learns about the common female.

Sneak Peek: Manehattan Backdrop (WIP)

I've been working on recreating Manehattan from scratch. References are used, and even then I don't know if I can reach a level of intricacy like the show does.

Speed Draw: Birdwatching (UPDATED)

Rumble and First Base (or Pop Fly, but they are keeping quiet on his real name) go birdwatching.

Updated: I made a few changes.

Sneak Peek: Chasing Clouds

This might ruffle a few feathers. But, you guys know me. I like to ship things.

(There was also a little story about this kissing pose. I might reveal it soon)

Sneak Peek: S-She's Okay...

Well, Soarin threw himself on Rainbow Dash to revive her after she passed out during a Wonderbolts routine, only for her to recover a moment too soon.

Nothing out of the ordinary at all...

MCR Feb 2016: Nice Day For A Picnic

As commissioned by Jonathan, this month's winner of the

Monthly Commission Raffle!

Sneak Peek: Teach me, PLEASEEE

Spike wants to be a good kisser, and his only hope is Twilight.

This commences an attempt at adding basic shading on my art, so everything doesn't look too flat. I'll be adding the effect on future art just to see how I can improve on that, as well as unreleased art, retroactively.

Let me know what you think in t...

Sneak Peek: He's Dating Me!

A couple of new characters in my repertoire. Thunderlane and Flitter.

Now, I don't know who to ship Thunderlane with yet, so if you have a preference, fill me in! I'm also planning to vector Rumble.

Sneak Peek: Soft Spot

Princess Cadance knows how to get her way around Shining Armor.

OR "Who's a good husband? Who wants a belly wub??"

Sneak Peek: Not In Front of the Childrens' Books

"Not here. Let's go to Young Adult."

Ah haha. Haha. Ha...

Sneak Peek: Equestria Springs

I... don't think this is suggestive. I mean, only me, the artist who had to fumble with vectored shapes that coincidentally look like body parts, would know for sure. Plus this is standard practice in Japan, which is pretty much the inspiration for this piece.

I didn't have to explain this.

r-right?

Alternatively: We're Late, So Very, Very Late

Here's the original vector that grew up to be Unbridled Rage. Initially the running Shining Armor and tag-along Twily were late for school, with Cadance added for flavour. I dropped this idea, kept the vector, and reworked it into the...

[SPOILER] Sneak Peek: The God Aunt (?)

Is she still evil? I think Flufflepuff pretty much softened her up. and I'm pretty responsible for that in my universe too.

Titles are hard.

[SPOILERS] Sneak Peek: Alicorn All-Stars

bby!

I thought doing a Royal Roll-Call would be nice.

Behind the Scenes: The Love of the Game

No one would believe that horrible sketch would be the foundation of this Valentine's Day piece. So here.

Sneak Peek: Chocolate Day [Updated]

"Where did you get this?"

"From Madame Zecora's! She's really good with the potions."

TWILIGHT, NO.

(Adjusted the depth.)

Speed Draw: #dm29doesPone 08

"Ice Cream and Me"

I really took my time putting this video together...
