Description With Johnny Bravo hair and wildly unshorn fetlocks, Brodeo was a fun OC to work with. Made of yellowheart for *quila111 , this pony was supposed to look prideful and maybe a touch conceited. Alas, I think the nose-in-the-air pose came out more like "Holy scallops, there're aliens up in that saucer!" Still, I enjoyed the design, especially that hair.
One more OC to go, and then I'm moving on to canons and non-pony woodwork. I'm behind schedule, but considering my last month things could be worse. Tally ho!

I really do love the pose and mane on this pony. And to touch upon what it looks like he's saying, it could very well be "I'm far to busy and important for those aliens".

"Holy scallops, there're aliens up in that saucer!"?
I was actually thinking more in the directions of
"Don't you dare talk to me, you lowly creature!"
when I looked at this

I really like the mane

Well then great, because that's the look it was supposed to convey.

Thanks. The hooves were fun. I especially got interested in how the hoof would look on the raised leg.

This is amazing! Personality and attitude perfectly captured in the pose. I'm so impressed at how something can have so much depth without the aid of facial expression... Overall I'd have to say damn that's some fine craftsmanship! Well done sir!

Glad you like how he turned out. He was a great character to work with, easy looks and personality to design around.

"Maaan I'm pretty!" Since, you know, he's kinda like Johnny Bravo
Awesome job Xofox, I think the snout is a bit too pointy, I really LOVE the details on the hooves!

Do the monkey! Huah!

Really? I thought you were going to say the snout ended up too wide; I certainly thought so. I wonder what would make it seem more accurate to both of us. Maybe if it was more rounded and less flat up front, but wider overall.

True, now that you point it out it might be a bit too wide aswell, but it doesnt really bug me. On the other hand the pointyness does. Sadly my English knowledge isn't good enough to describe exactly what I mean but when you look at it from the sidesit looks like his snout is pointing to the sky.

No, I think I get what you're saying. I'll see what I can do in coming designs.

This is so adorable! I can't believe people can just carve this stuff out of wood.

lol, for a moment I thought he was Doctor Whooves!

Haha, yeah, he is a bit reminiscent of our dear Doctor.
