A Commission for ~

I hope you like it, and I apologize for the long wait!

I did some previous sketches with these three characters, though I wasn't quite happy with them, and finally it just came to me when I watched an episode of MLP. The amazing Pinkie Pie and balloons, so that's where the idea came from. These are the future Cutie Mark Crusaders and they are trying to get their cutie marks, so like the ones before them, they're gonna try everything under the moon And their ScoutMaster Marshall is there to guide and encourage them!

I tried using prismacolored pencils and markers, but it just didn't look right to me, so I just used watercolors, and you can see where the paper was starting to bunch up, there are a couple of mistakes, but I'm happy with this~


I hope you like it and please tell me what you think, advice is welcome (:

I really like the sweetheart wearing the eye mask. I remember MLP from an earlier era through ancient vhs tapes. One of the ponies I loved was all white, had dark purple hair with a streak of blue, and she might've been a baby unicorn. Purples and lavenders are my favorite colors, you see. That's why I remember her so well. The cutie in the background reminds me of her...btw you did a great job with the color! (I know how frustrating watercolors can be.)

Aw, thank you so very much

Oh yes, I remember the old ones, I've never watched them, but I bet they are great, I do love the style they were done in back in the day, I got a little inspired by it when I did the second pony, the pinkish one, I liked how the facial features were drawn then. Aw, that pony sounds beautiful, I should look it up, and I know how you feel, those are great colors, I especially like blue (:

And thank you again! I've gotten used to watercolors a bit now, I just wish I could do that soft beautiful watercolors, have you seen the Sailor Moon art? I would like to learn how to watercolor like that someday.

You're welcome. No, I haven't looked up Sailor Moon art--yet. I always thought Sailor Moon's theme colors should've been white and silver, or pink. Turns out red, white, blue, and yellow are considered "heroic colors" by makers of anime.

Yeah, those colors are really good, they've brought those colors out on their watercolor arts, especially in their comic books now. But I know what you mean, it's interesting how they chose the colors (:

I still think Pink would've been more suitable. Or Silver.

Oh my gosh, thank you so much, your comment just made my day!

Thank you very much~!

I just wanted to make it look amazing, I kept making mistakes in the previous ones, I've decided if I'm not happy with the art work, then I will redo it, I don't want to disappoint anyone.

But I'm so happy that you like it so much and that the coloring is good, that's so kind of you!

And you're very welcome~! If you ever want another commission, feel free to ask, you are so awesome too!


And thank you Merry Christmas to you too~!:thumb274548445:
