Description Yup. This is what I have been working on all day xD I got inspiation from watching the food network earlier, and I ditched the Tiny, mini adopts. Sorry xD
-------

What I did to get what you see now:

Drew her traditionally.

Scanned her on my chargerless laptop that now only has 10 minutes of battery life left.xD

Spent 3-5 hours redrawing her in paint.

looked for a colour pallette on Colourlovers.com

Recolored her MULTIPLE times. Spent

And here you have her! xD

-----------------

INFO:

Name: Gumbo

Skill: Makes food, her specialty is gumbo.

Cutiemark: A steaming bowl of gumbo.

Job: Runs a small resturant with her little sister, Beny (Benyas). Serves cajun food.

Body: She has a bulkier build, and a fairly taller than most ponies.

Voice: VERY southern accent

Personality: Gumbo tends to be very quiet unless spoken to. But, she is a friendly and generous pony, her sister is more of the waitress at their resturant. Gumbo is a very protective pony, once a pony is friends with her she will do anything for that pony. She has a leveled head and will give any pony advice if they ask. Gumbo can be a bit blunt, but she would rather tell it like it is, than beat around the bush.

Catchphrase: ''Nuthans ta spicy, deys juss' right'' (Nothings too spicy, they are just right)

Likes: Benyas (Both her sister and the pastrey), Boating, gumbo, spiced foods, seafood, napping, cooking, the beach, and giving advice.

Dislikes: Most sweets, when her sister cries (Which is a lot, she is a crypony), coffee, being cold, when ponys cant understand her, when being dragged into conversations, and dogs.

Trivia:

-She has a pet blue shelled, crab, which she named ''Blue'' (She pronounces its name as Boo)

-She and Beny often take trips to the beach, taking along their pets, Blue and Cuddles (Benyas goldfish)

-She tried to blow away her dreads from her eyes, but gave up. She can see around them now.

-Her specialty may be gumbo but she know how to make all kinds of food, even some japanese and hispanic food.

-------------

Art and Gumbo belong to me!

You may draw her, but you MUST TELL ME!!! ♥

Please dont steal her! I love her so much and you will break my heart! ;n;

I really like how you designed her! And don't even make me start on recoloring
I never actually had problems with picking a color pallet, usually I had it all figured out before the lineart was finished...and then I drew my Sunchaser. OH.MY.GOD. I thank God I didn't flip my PC, that bastard took me almost two whole dasy of recoloring XD

Anyway, would love to draw her someday, I think I would add in some soft light and fireflies around her, it just seems to match for me ^^

BUT OH MY GOSH SUNCHASER IS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PONIES IVE EVER SEEN ;o; His colour scheme is just gorgeous ;u;

;u; That would be amazing ♥ I would die if you drew her xD

DaintySparkles In reply to sugar-moonbear [2013-04-28 12:41:53 +0000 UTC]

Hmm?? I scanned it on my scanner, traced over it in a base color. Turned it into a 16color bit picture, took away any of the pixels that I didnt draw (I am not sure how to explain that e_e look up a tutorial on how to make a base, its when you change the format) then I resaved it as PNG and colored everything xD

Im not sure if other people know how to do that, the though came to me when I was drawing one day haha~

DaintySparkles In reply to sugar-moonbear [2013-04-28 14:24:30 +0000 UTC]

Im thinking you mean switching the format? You go to save as and under where you name it there is a secton saying ''Save as type'' and you click ''16 color bitmap (*.bmp;*.dip)'' It should change every thing to an odd black and white hue. You need to get rid of everything other than the lines you made. Remember to switch the format back to PNG before you switch (Or you can copy and paste the picture in a new tab of paint, this is what I do xD)
