Description requested a drawing of his and 's FoE PnP characters Trefoil (right) and Steel Innocence (left). I wasn't sure about this sketch at first, but I really like how it turned out.

Pardon the messiness, the coloring style is one I haven't really tried before.

Thanks! Both were rather experimental, I'm glad that everything turned out okay for the most part.

I'm glad I was able to capture the adorableness of the Steelfoil ship. ^^

It looks great! So adorable~

I like the coloring style as well. The only thing that looks a bit off to me is the way the forelegs connect to the body. But it's still a great picture, I'm using it as my desktop wallpaper.

I'm glad to hear that you approve. ^.^

Anypony's forelegs in particular? Steel's legs werea bit difficult for me to draw - I'd never drawn ponies in that pose before - but I didn't see any problem with Tre's. (I like getting feedback about any anatomy issues, helps me fix problems in my future drawings.)

Particularly it looks strange to me how thin the legs are when they connect to the body. Getting thinner, even. That seems to be a characteristic of the style ponies are originally drawn on, but it doesn't look very organic in this style.

Looking into horse skeletons, it seems to me that the placement of their equivalent to a shoulder is a bit higher than it seems to be here.

Still, this is just how it looks to me. I'm not a real artist, so take it with a grain of salt.

The expressions look great, by the way.

Hm, I may try fixing this since it seems to be a fairly simple problem.

I'm happy to hear it, I'm not greatly familiar with either character so I had to "improvise" those expressions, so to speak. I'm glad they turned out well.
