Tell me you don't see the differences
Hand-drew my avatar for this month’s avatar change. My artistic skills haven’t improved one bit when it comes to actual drawing.
Also, this is probably the first time I’ve drawn a peashooter from Plants vs. Zombies since the time I used to play the game between 3rd and 5th grade. Still looks like the drawings I have from those times.
Not to mention that the entire thing is basically an accumulation of some of my past and present interests.
Hey, every pony.
Well, it finally happened. I finally got my new face, so to speak. How do you like it?
This simple but elegant piece was done by the talented Charlemane, author of "The Stars Beyond the Veil."
In this case, mapping images onto angled surfaces.
As per usual, I've got the typical "band" running across the corners.
What do you think? Should I try a better render using actual 3D software? 'Cause I was just drawing the model out by hand in PDN.
Well. I have a new avatar, and I think I'm keeping this one for a bit.
Art was done by ViralAcorn in Deviantart. click here to be directed to her.
Took nearly half a year of on-and-off work. I decided to take advantage of the time I have free today to just go ahead and finish the thing.
It's pretty much always been the same ol' wordart, a splash of color, and a nice little multicolored rainbow. Originally it was pretty much monochrome with blue, but over time, more and more color was added. Now, the overall design is just feeling repetitive. Like as in, the current design can be traced all the way back to when I was in 7th grade.
So yeah, last blog post...
I didn't want to go through the hassle of christmas-izing my avatar, so I became the Christmas tree.
I got a new avatar.
Meet Apple Belle (Drawn by NightGlimmer22: Check them out, its worth it.) the hard working EARTH PONY. That isn't a horn, its a stub where her horn used to exist fully. :)
I just finished watching Avatar.
For the third time.
Damn, I want to be one now...
And really. The entire time I was screaming "Murder that son of a...! Kill the ... General, Dammit!" I mean, he's just such a pain in the flank, if you know what I mean. I personally wanted to reach through the screen and smack him upside the head to see if he was human. Obviously, I would not have gotten an answer. Believe me, I tried.
And now I want to write a fic about an OC x Jake Sully...
It's basically gonna be an evolution of the one I had before this one. I'm leaving it at this for today, complete with its colorful non-gradient placeholder color glory.
Also, grid line overlay. ^_^
So, I have made a new avatar :) A crude but stylized representation of the elements of harmony.
I do admit it is kinda gaudy and I only put in about 10 min of effort into it on a whim. But I think it is kinda neat and it does appear to be standing out from the herd, so to speak.
Software vise I used Deluxe Paint II in CGA mode to make it. DosBox is pretty amazing :)
I’m still kinda iffy on the star design I made though. I’ll probably go back and do a redesign later on.
Softened shadows, clipped out a part I didn't really like.
It isn't time yet for my monthly avatar redraw, but I was bored and made another one anyways. It's similar to the one prior to my current one, but brighter and more rainbows. And the starfield makes a return.
But I ain't gonna reveal it 'till September.
