Some Tracings of MLP Characters · 2:43am April 11th
I don't think I'm terrible at actually drawing my own stuff (I'm okay) but I'm nowhere near the level of some of you fantastic people.
If it counts for anything, I think I'm a pretty decent tracer though.
To be clear, none of this is my own art. I just slapped a piece of paper on my Chromebook screen and traced over it, then shaded in the "colors". I think there's some level of skill in this, but I will not dare try to compare this to anybody's original artwork at all.
Disclaimer: There may be a few puns in regard to the monochrome nature of these tracings.
Doctor Whooves- Master of all things Timey-Wimey.
Carrot Top- Most underrated character in the show. (Go read this great fic.)
Vinyl Scratch- Dude, what are ya doing posting drawings of me? Oh, you're just showing your appreciation. Carry on.
Sweetie Belle- (I will admit, some of these are a bit less polished.)
Derpy: 
My OC: Because, why not?
PInkie Pie: A printing of the perfectly pink party pony on parchment.
Rainbow Dash- Er, Grayscale Dash. (I've also seen Monochrome Sprint be used before.)
Just a bonus. It's the logo for the progressive rock band Yes.
Thoughts?
I think they are all so pretty.

That's too many steps.
Thanks!
I had to scan them though my printer (except for the OC one, that was a photo), download them once they were sent to my Email, take screenshots of them, upload them to an image hosting site, and then copy the image addresses over to here.

Omigosh!
It really is!
They should simplify it.
But the result is awesome at least!
I think you did great!
Your tracings are very well done, good consistency throughout. You should try your hand at freehand sketching, tracing is a good way to get into that. I know, because I was able to do it!

Thanks! I'm pretty good with at drawing certain things, but I'll have to work up to trying ponies.
Way better than I could ever draw

Way better than I could ever draw as well.
That's why I traced stuff.

I promise you that’s still better than I could ever trace I mean. For some reason I’m an excellent and very coordinated (a requirement to play high level baseball) but my handwriting absolutely sucks unless I write very slow and meticulously and annoyingly. Thus my drawing abilities also suck.
It’s funny because my younger sister is the exact opposite, she’s actually a professional artist now lol.

Cool. What kind of artist?
5786071
She can draw well but her speciality is ceramics and pot-making. She legit makes like gift shop quality stuff with her own hands and sells it for a living. I don’t know how she does it lol. She went to a small college in Portland Oregon to major in art, graduating pretty recently.

That's pretty cool.
Pottery is something you don't think about very often, but it's a necessary skill.

Indeed.

*Bashes you with a vase.

I guess I deserved that for being so bad at art lol.
