Description For the weekly contest, with this weeks theme of "Baby Invasion". So here's Derpy as a filly.

I'm not too happy with how this one turned out, colored pencils are still very hard for me. But here it is anyways


Critique is welcome! I know I made a few mistakes here, so don't be shy to point them out to me ;D

Well not every pony's talent relates to a job. I mean Pinky pie's party throwing isn't a job so she's a baker.

Wohoo, she looks very adorable! Her position is just great! I also like her mane.
If I had to point something out, I'm not sure about her tongue - it seems to be missing.

SeptilSix In reply to AstralFoxArt [2012-09-28 05:16:38 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! And the tongue was there at one point, but I think somewhere along the lines it must have blended in with the rest of the mouth. And my scanner may have messed up the colors a little bit. But thanks for pointing that out! I'll watch for stuff like that better in the future

If you would like a bit of critique, however, I could give it to you: Just put her wings a little higher, and let a little of her mane drop to the other side as well, just to add a bit of volume. Other than that you're lookin A okay!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

SeptilSix In reply to Ramones-MLP [2012-09-28 04:42:29 +0000 UTC]

I didn't even think about the mane! It really would have looked better dropped down... And I agree with you on the wings as well. I actually completely forgot about the wings until I had finished the entire picture, so I had to erase and add white paint to cover over the black lines that were in the way and then attempt to draw in wings and make it look semi-decent... So in the future I need to remember pegasus have wings!

Anyways, thanks for the critique! It really does help to get a second opinion sometimes ;D

Svizard In reply to SeptilSix [2012-09-27 23:12:46 +0000 UTC]

Indeed, I've been trying to scout out an original [and affordable] Derpy sketch, but they're a little out of my price range

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

SeptilSix In reply to Svizard [2012-09-27 23:20:46 +0000 UTC]

Oh yes some of them can be pretty expensive. I think I remember a Derpy sketch made by Lauren herself that sold for around $2000 (if I remember correctly). I'd LOVE to have something like that on my wall, but don't think I'd ever see myself paying that much 0__o

Svizard In reply to SeptilSix [2012-09-27 23:22:26 +0000 UTC]

I can barely afford paint and paper atm, so a two grand sketch is a tad out of my budget

Would be nice to one day have something like it though, something to show as a sign of achievement.

SeptilSix In reply to Svizard [2012-09-27 23:35:20 +0000 UTC]

My financial situation isn't too different, I bought some canvas materials last week and it just about emptied all my extra money for the next couple months...
But yes, that would be pretty cool to have something like that. If I ever became rich I'd have a whole wall dedicated to MLP art xD

Svizard In reply to SeptilSix [2012-09-27 23:39:40 +0000 UTC]

Hehe, I'd do the same. [Also, I am sure art material prices have more then doubled over the last year, I may attempt to start making paint, see if that's cheaper.]

SeptilSix In reply to Svizard [2012-09-28 04:35:28 +0000 UTC]

Oh definitely. I never remembered colored pencils being as expensive as they are now, and just about every other medium is the same way. That's a neat idea to make your own paints though, I may try that someday too

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Svizard In reply to SeptilSix [2012-09-28 09:44:26 +0000 UTC]

The only issue with making your own paint is the simply thing that you always say you've done it wrong [even when you've done it right] and then paint a tiny bit and you say, no that looks wrong. [even though it may be identical to the other paints] Human brains are weird

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

SeptilSix In reply to Svizard [2012-09-28 20:55:41 +0000 UTC]

Yes, our brains work very weirdly sometimes xD I've never made paint before, but I'm the same way when it comes to proportions and such. Whatever sketch I make looks completely wrong, but in reality a lot of them are probably correct, and when I go back through my sketches I think "Hmm this one looks fine, why didn't I use it?". Anyways, yeah. We're weird creatures
