Description Played with the poneatomy a little. This is what came of trying a new style of sketching. I've been sitting on it for a week or so trying to decide whether having lineart is incompatible with my shading. Decided to just post it.

I think it looks great! I love this look. Also those foreshortened feathers are really well done like wow. I'd say the way you did the lines with the shading 100% works Β

NadnerbD In reply to verulence [2015-03-14 01:08:25 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I was pretty happy with those wings, even though the lineart kinda kept me from shading them the way I have in the past.

Yeah man. That line color choice and line hierarchy? Fantastic. I absolutely love both ways you render stuff so go at it how you feel. I could eat it up all day. ALL DAY SON.

locoindigo [2015-03-13 23:36:36 +0000 UTC]

Incidentally I think the shading works great with the lines here. It's a high, stark place up there full of sudden dangers! so those blues and sharp terminator lines really make it seem like she's being pranged and punked by something diving out of bright, dizzying sunlight.

Other than that I guess: lines and abstraction for inviting us into the character and imagining ourselves in their horseshoes, or lineless and more realism for slightly unreachable grace and power and/or conveying subtleties in a pony's character? But those are so totally just artfart guidelines; I dig this piece. Thank you for sharing!

NadnerbD In reply to locoindigo [2015-03-14 00:32:11 +0000 UTC]

Heey, thanks for the deep thoughts about art symbolism and stuff.

To be honest, I often don't think about what I'm trying to convey in a piece, beyond the literal "this is a thing which you can see", so my style choices tend to be just sort of my attempts to aim at whatever looks good to me at the time. Sometimes this works.

locoindigo [2015-03-13 23:23:09 +0000 UTC]

I get the sense of something fwipp!-ing past her and the pause before the tumbling shockwave.

Pony with quick reactions. That's our Dashie. But will that save her? Stay tuned for grit, determination and heroic valour!
