Description When a guy is good-looking, he's usually described as "handsome". In rare instances however, that term doesn't apply. In guys such as Kirk Hammett, Orlando Bloom, or of course, Braeburn, the term "pretty" is much more suitable.

Simplified version: Braeburn ain't "handsome", he's just PRETTY. XD

Anyways, I deliberately went with a simpler style for this one. I was getting a little burned out on drawing elaborate backgrounds and such, so I was a bit more loose with the drawing and did next to no editing on MS Paint or GIMP. I think it looks okay, if a bit rough, but then again that's what I was going for. XD

Also, I was listening to lynyrd skynyrd, billy ray cyrus, travis tritt and various other country music bands the whole time I was drawing this. I NEVER listen to country music.

Oh, there's no doubt that everypony's gay for him...all that's left is for the fandom to decide whether he's gay for them.

Oh, and I lol'd so hard at that comic, you wouldn't even believe it. And then I saw the "Even Equinox is gay for Braeburn" in the artist's comments section...and I had to take a break from the computer for a while, because I lapsed into about 15 minutes of hardcore laughing-out-loud; you know, the kind where you laugh really hard for a while, start to calm down, and then you think about it again and start lol'ing again. That made my day, thanks so much for sharing that with me.

"Simplified version: Braeburn ain't "handsome", he's just PRETTY."

NO. Braeburn aint pretty...he's downright sexy if I do declare! Them's bedroom eyes if I ever seen 'em.

I've always loves Brae's hair/mane but you just made it look so..omgah. Country lovin' s'real gud man.

If somepony gave ME that look I'd totally pounce on them..Oh Yuki~

I stand corrected. Well played, well played indeed. And GOD but I FUCKING LOVE bedroom eyes ...I can't help but do a creepy evil genius laugh every time I see them.

Kinda makes you wanna run your hands through it, eh?

You should be careful about doing that...somepony else might pounce on them at the same time, resulting in an awkward three-way...Oh Twye~

OH HELL YES. I understand that one. Though you know me and my pretty men... Kind of most of my gallery!

But anyway all that aside. THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME. The pose is nice, looks relaxed and comfortable... and his expression just doubles all that! Very very nice.

And nice colors! Very simple, but as I've said before, you have a really awesome eye for color. Makes the characters and backgrounds really eye-popping and memorable. Sweet. As. Fuck.

Yeah, mares love him and stallions want to be him. You made him look adequately laid-back and relaxed with that brew. I'm sure listening to all that country music helped get the feel of it just fine.

Great-5 In reply to Damn-Yuki [2012-01-05 22:29:02 +0000 UTC]

Eeyup. I'd love to see you draw Rarity, Pinkie or Rainbow Dash sometime soon, I don't think I've seen you draw them yet in your distinctive anthro style. And speaking of Pinkie Pie, I think you were right about her being the curviest pony, because I saw a picture saying what the mane six's measurements would be if they were humans, and according to that Pinkie's breasts and butt were the biggest.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Damn-Yuki In reply to Great-5 [2012-01-05 22:56:09 +0000 UTC]

Oh, but I HAVE drawn Rainbow Dash! And Pinkie to some extent...although the only times I've drawn her, she's either been a psychotic murderer, a corpse, or depressed-bordering-on-suicidal...yeah, I should probably draw Pinkie again in a happier situation. XD (Oh wait, there was that one time where she was getting oral sex...but that was a really low-quality picture. )

As for Rarity...maybe. She's growing on me, but I still don't like her that much. But I've only drawn Fluttershy once, and I haven't drawn Twilight at all. I think I need to fix that.

Where is this picture? I have not seen it, and would like to...for reference purposes. *ahem* XD

Great-5 In reply to Damn-Yuki [2012-01-06 01:46:33 +0000 UTC]

You have drawn Dashie? I'd like to go see it then! I love Rainbow Dash! I guess I really need to look in your gallery more then.

Then draw Twilight!

[link] That's the picture I was looking for. I personally think Fluttershy would have the largest breasts, Rarity would have the largest hips/butt and Pinkie Pie would be curviest over all.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Damn-Yuki In reply to Great-5 [2012-01-06 08:35:52 +0000 UTC]

Oh yeah, I've actually drawn her six times so far. Check 'em out if you want to.
Be warned, those first two are a bit gnarly.

Hmmm, possibly. Although, I tend to think that Rarity would be the most slender out of them...Twilight would just be as flat as a cutting board, in my mind. XD And I don't know why, but it seems like whenever people make Fluttershy into an anthro or a human, they always give her really large breasts. What's with that? I don't quite get it.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Great-5 In reply to Damn-Yuki [2012-01-06 17:27:12 +0000 UTC]

However bloody it may be, the detail on the first picture, and the expression on both Dash's and Pinkie's faces is amazing. You're a pretty good artist, ya know that?

I could see though why you'd think Rarity might be the most slender out of all of them, and that does make sense because she'd probably be model-like, possibly makes more sense than her having the biggest, curviest flank of all the mane six. I guess the only reason why I thought her flank is the biggest is because she reminds me of my OC "Helia" who is extremely curvy and has very large breasts, hips and butt. She's not a pony though, she's a near-human, but like Rarity she is glamorous, wears white and speaks with a British accent.

Oh, and Twilight would definitely be flat-chested, her proportions would be small and cute. Like I said before I'd like to see you draw Twilight, since you say you haven't drawn her at all yet and she's also one of my favorite characters.

As for Fluttershy being the bustiest of the mane six, I'm guessing that originated more with the anime fandom than with the MLP fandom, since in a lot of recent anime it seems the shy, demure girl also happens to have huge boobs. It must be some fantasy wish-fulfillment thing, I'm really not sure since I'm not really an anime fan anymore, but it must have rubbed off a bit on Fluttershy since she's also the shy, demure girl of the mane six. At least that's my theory.

Finally, what is your opinion on how well-endowed or curvy Celestia and Luna would be? They were not included on that picture I showed you, and I can't really tell from the humanized fanart I see of them.

Damn-Yuki In reply to Great-5 [2012-01-06 22:46:28 +0000 UTC]

Well, thank you! That's some pretty high praise, I appreciate it!

Ah, that would explain it.

I think that's pretty much my opinion. Sort of a cute nerdy girl. XD Yeah, I'll have to do something with her at some point.

Oh yeah, I have no idea why I didn't realize that before. Yeah, I've seen that in several different anime, I guess it makes sense. XD

As for Celestia and Luna...well, I don't know if it's tied in with her whole "goddess" thing or not, but I tend to imagine Celestia as having sort of a perfectly balanced figure. Not exceptionally big in any area, but, at the risk of sounding cliched, just right. And Luna...hmmm...I think she'd be similar to Celestia, but more petite in terms of build since she's younger.

I loved how this says "Braeburn" wherever you see it! You did an awesome job keeping his essence.
Also, as you did pretty nothing for background, he is more highlighted, which works better.
And dat mane...

Sometimes you must chage the way you get inspiration. I think listening to country music helped here.

I was a bit of missing this artworks. Nothing interesting is really happening around my dA

Keep going!
