    EqD's Newbie Artist Training Grounds

    As of writing this, today is the last day of Equestria Daily's "Newbie Artist Training Grounds", which I rather serendipitously stumbled upon days before this year's month-long event began, never having been aware of it before. Every day for the past month, I've been uploading sketches and drawings to my DeviantArt and submitting them to

    Random Drawing

    I've always been someone who could sorta draw things, but generally only when directly copying a reference. So today, for some reason after being part of this fandom for years, I decided I wanted to learn how to draw these characters for the first time, as opposed to writing about them, just for once lol. So I followed some tutorials about general proportions and whatnot, and the first dozen or

    Brainstorming Session 2: Electric Boogaloo

    I've been tinkering a bit with a Novel-esque story that's been in the works for quite a while, but have reached a bit of a writer's block with it. I keep editing what I have written instead of continuing the story, which I guess is good in its own way, but not so good as it pertains to eventually releasing the story for

Shameless Plug · 10:08pm Sep 7th, 2021

:twilightblush: Apologies in advance to anyone who doesn't care for my artwork. Please ignore this blog post if it doesn't interest you.

A few months ago I started drawing MLP characters on a whim and participated in EqD's "Artist Training Grounds", and over the course of that month and beyond, I got really into it. I've always wanted to be able to make artwork like some of super talented brony artists out there, and while I'm far from that degree of quality, I am fairly proud of where I'm currently at.

I also recently started using a more professional setup with a drawing tablet and everything, and over on My DeviantArt and other platforms, I've also started accepting commissions (there's the shameless plug). I don't expect to have many requests, but it seemed like a fun way to add some structure to my learning going forward, and I figured I'd let anybody who follows me here know about that "side" of my online MLP content. It's not writing, but I do think my artwork/comics have a bit of the same kind of wholesomeness that my stories on here do, so maybe some of you will like it. That's my excuse anyway, and I'm sticking to it.

Anyway, with that plug out of the way, I do want to thank those few who provided encouragement when I randomly posted some artwork on here a handful of months ago here and here. It was very much appreciated and helped inspire me to do a bit more.

Oh hi, it's been a while since you posted anything.

Commission is a good way to practice. I have no money though. :twilightsheepish:

Yeah I've been occupied with other things IRL and, obviously, the art stuff. If you have a simple request I'd do it as long as it feels within my abilities. I appreciate the translations you've done in the past, so it would be a way for me to say thanks!

5579238
Oh, I didn't mean to make requests, but… I think maybe I can give you an idea.

How about… somepony biting a pencil or/and writing a letter?

You don't have to do it if you don't want to. Just have fun! :yay:

5579252
It'll be done sometime tomorrow! I'm working on the sketch right now :twilightsmile:

5579265
Woohoo! Awesome.

5579270
Here it is!

Finished quicker than I expected. I think you might recognize the character :twilightsheepish:

Speaking of the character though...is that an OC or one from the show? I kinda wanna wait to post this to my other sites until I know who the pony is lol.

5579288
Wow, it's great, thank you! :pinkiegasp:

She (I'm a boy though) is my OC, named Flintie.

It's quicker than I thought. :rainbowkiss:

5579289
Thanks! I really like their design, so I tried to be as faithful to it as possible. Glad you enjoyed it!

5579291
Thank you. :yay:

Another friend drew that for me, and I've used this image as avatar for years.

One of my stories will be posted here in the near future. I submitted it on 3rd September and now it's still waiting for approval. I'm so nervous and it's almost a torture checking the notification every other time. :facehoof:

It's special for me in many aspects, maybe you'd be interested to keep an eye on it. :pinkiesmile:

5579309
The initial wait for approval can be annoying, yeah. I remember the waiting from earlier on when I started writing You might want to message a site staff member that has been active more recently if it doesn't happen soon (https://www.fimfiction.net/staff).

Message me when it gets approved though and I'll check it out!

5579358
Sure. I will try to contact them if it still hasn't gotten approved tomorrow. Once it comes out I will message you ASAP. Thanks again. :yay:

5579358
Finally it's here! Hooray! :yay:

It feels really shameless to promote my story under other's promoting blog, but to make the context complete, I will still do so. (…Sorry. :fluttershyouch:)
