Description ...but i have to do something.

[update1: changed some minor things ]

well, if you know Project Horizons, you know which book this is and why rarity is troubled by a decision she got to make.
if not: too bad xD (go read it!)
seriously, that's generosity right there: to *spoiler spoiler* your very own *spoiler* to *spoiler* your *spoiler* x.X

anyway, i actually kinda like it... what do you guys think? :>


.svg right there



fun facts:
time: about 10hrs?
nodes total:1387
exporting time: ~6min

references: suffice to say the .svg was 14.5 mb big before removing them x)

Awesome dude, looks real good!
But, shouldn't she age a little? Weren't the ministry mares always described as looking more mature?

eeyup, but i assumed, that rarity would dye her mane to cover any grey and try any other way to preserve her good look later in life soooo: she isn't getting older in my pics

*gasp* RARITY IS TRYING TO SUMMON DAEDRA?

not exactly, more like creating daedric artifacts, but it's an opportunity to use the font

Yanoda covered some stuff already but I'd also like to add - be careful with the shadow colours. Right now she looks (slightly) like she's made of metal or her fur is singed. Other than that good job! You have not failed me...for now.

>like she's made of metal



seriously though, i wondered about that too... guess i should experiment a little with color in there.
maybe in another pic (already got a very rough idea for the next one)

Looks great!
A few recommendations:
- the shadows cast by Rarity, the pillars and stand all face in different directions... also try to adjust the shadows so they mimic how light casts shadows. Rarity has the shadow at a greater angle than the pillars and the stand.
- The inner tail is missing some shadings as well, currently it looks like the default shading from the show. Just make the inside fills a bit more darker. Maybe also add a bit to the mane.
- The side of the book should also have a bit of shading.

I hope this helps.

Overall, great work on your first real Vector shading!

hhm, yeah the direction of the shadow from the stand is kinda off, but the ones cast by rarity and the pillars... well, i guess i could change that a littl too. shades on the book are missing because i simply didn't really know what to do there and rarity's tail... are you kidding? like it hasn't enough gradients(even without any shading) already xD

anyway, i will look into the things you mentioned and see if i can come up with a better solution, not today though. x)
and thanks for the feedback
