I like pandas.

You got this Yakoshi, the first step is to just do a fun little doodle of a silly face but I drew this after the 2nd day with Pinkie cheering you on

Earlier, I mentioned looking back at all the messages of encouragement I’ve received over the past few months. I originally didn’t want to post this one because I liked having it in my inbox to look at whenever I wanted. But it’s honestly too cute to keep to myself forever.

Thanks a ton, Taur. This always makes me smile. :)

Wanted to do a little experiment. The left is Pinkie using circles and guidelines, the right is attempting to draw her freehand. As you can see, the left is much more precise and proportional. That’s not to say that every artist needs to use circles, but until I form a consistent template, I sure as hell do.

There’s no shame in it, but the more often you draw and practice, the more comfortable and less reliant you become on certain tools. All in good time, no rush.

For funsies:

NANI???

Seriously, what? Wow, what happened over the past few weeks? I’ve posted zero original content, and I’m suddenly getting an influx of new eyeballs. I thought I’d peaked back at 700, to be honest. Well I’m definitely not complaining, so thank you!

I’m pretty close to a major milestone now thanks to all of you, ¾ of the way to 1000! 750 is pretty big deal, so I guess I should celebrate somehow. I can’t help but feel a bit inspired.

Puzzled.
