    Tape Deck's Mixtape: Track 15

    Just a disclaimer: I'm pretty sure the song's not even supposed to be offensive.

    (And this isn't a Parental Advisory warning or anything like that, but you'll see.)

    Mongoloid by Devo. (From the 1978 album Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo!)

    Mmmm...that drum intro...

    Tape Deck's Mixtape: Track 14

    Remember CCR a few days ago?

    <sigh> What can I say but the truth?

    About Me. (Oh Boy)

    Hey there, friends and followers of mine, as well as you randos who just clicked on this page. Yes, I see you there, and I don't mind.

    Heck, I made this blog post so that people can get to know me more, so you're in the right place. (It gets more interesting after my random things that I like, but I'd still like you to read those, please.)

    Tape Deck's Mixtape: Track 13

    Oh boy am I excited to share this one.
    So, to have heard of this band before, you basically have to be part of one of these three specific groups:

    1. An Australian fan of indie rock in the 90's.
    2. A fan (or former fan) of the gosh immensely popular show "Bluey".

    Tape Deck's Mixtape: Track 12

    Swamp rock. Seems like a weird name for a genre, but if you've heard of it at all, pretty much only one band really comes to mind.

    (And even if you haven't heard of "swamp rock" you've surely heard a song by Creedence Clearwater Revival before.)

    All hail Nightmare Moon.

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: :derpytongue2:

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.

Thanks! :yay:
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. :ajbemused: That's too many steps.

Omigosh!

It really is!

They should simplify it.

But the result is awesome at least!

I think you did great! :rainbowkiss:

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.
