Hey y'all! It's art and stuff.

My Favorite Pieces of 2017, pt. 1

I like the Best of Tumblr tool, but it’s all based on scores. The reasons behind getting lots of notes can be arbitrary. So I decided to make a separate post with some of my favorite pieces I’ve drawn or worked on this year. Maybe there were a few you may have missed!

All posts are in chronological order, not how much I liked them.

One of the first Lovely Lemonade bits. I kind of miss the simpler style of eyes I did back then, reminds me a little of @boulders-stable. Might experiment with that again.

My friend Wr3nch’s OC Allie Wrench (who may or may not secretly be Silver Spanner) with his two favorite horsegals, Rarity and Octavia. I love how this turned out, especially Allie’s facial expression. I don’t draw others’ OC often, but when I do, I like to think I knock it out of the park.

This was just super fun. And the ends totally justify the means. (I dedicate this to @alviniscute.)

Some classic pin-up Applejack, complete with gremlin. (It seemed some people either love or hate Lovely, so I posted a version with a bit less of her here.)

Totally true story: I learned the entirety of Mandarin just to draw this. Unfortunately, due to a freak accident, I completely forgot it all the next day. Life is strange like that.

That thing I did for @pabbley, which people seem to have REALLY liked. Probably one of the best color jobs I’ve ever done outside of a direct collaboration.

(hey pabbles, ur a lood dood)

300 follower milestone! Also, holy shit is Sweetie’s neck long. I feel like there was meme potential there.


More to come…
