I’ve had awful art block lately, but Scarlet has set me free.
My headcanon voice for her is Susan Sarandon’s portrayal of Queen Narissa from Enchanted. It’s perfectly villainous, theatrical, on the deeper side, and has a fittingly raspy quality to it. It helps that many of Narissa’s lines sound exactly like something Scarlet would say. I ended up listening to her lines on loop for the duration of this sketch. Also ended up drawing inspiration from her for Scarlet’s physical appearance as well. They’re both evil queens so it fits.
Final sketch paired with my first iteration. Didn’t give her any jewelry this time around but I’ve got some concepts in the works.
I really just love dragon culture. Very little is confirmed so just about anything can be written, drawn, or said and it's always so creative!
I love how the wings interlock with each other and how their little feet plod around in the dirt. Despite being a still image you can easily imagine the movement and patterns of their dance.
Someday I want to make an animatic of dragons dancing and I'll definitely try to incorporate wing holding into the steps.
The first time she's ever gotten to dance
Sunset in the bkg was actually a picture I took (edited obv)
okay it’s come to my attention that absolutely NONE OF YOU know ANYTHING about how cutie marks work. let me say this simply. a cutie mark isn’t a job being assigned, it’s a special TALENT OR SKILL that the pony enjoys. Most of the time it has a directly transferable job for that skill, like if you enjoy baking and are super good at it WOW! baker. If you are really good at writing and telling stories, author. However, there are some cutie marks that could go multiple ways.
twilight sparkle has exceptional magic ability, so she became a scholar, but she could really do anything that required a good magic skill. same with rainbow dash, her weather controlling job isn’t directly linked to her cutie mark, but it does fit the bill for the job.
i was posed the question of what would a murderer pony’s cutie mark be and wouldn’t everyone know. NO. if somehow murder were to be a special skill, the cutie mark might be something like a knife or a shovel. other ponies might just assume you’re good a cooking or gardening. now with cutie marks like apple jacks, their family has a ‘green thumb’ kind of deal so obviously the cutie mark would be hereditary.
so, the reason i made this post. walter white pony’s cutie mark would NOT be blue crystals. it would be a CHEMISTRY FLASK.
She so small
ena dream bbq makes me want to get into animation so here’s an attempt at some animation… not great… but like GIMME A SECOND
what if darkstalker were green (perhaps by eating a greenberry or accidentally falling into a vat of green) and became greenstalker (short for green darkstalker).
my concept art. this is what he may look like.
my biggest creative passion in life is ‘the project I’m not supposed to be working on right now’
Oh wow this design is very nice. I like how the hands look like hands, the feet look like feet, but they still look simple enough to draw
Darkstalker the Nightwing
so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god
Adobe is going to spy on your projects. This is insane.
Whew!
An animation I've been working on for a while now. Fully colored!
Don't like these wings yet. Need to redesign them for flight.
Oh yeah, this is a Darkstalker design I've been working on. Still needs some details added before it's done but thought I'd share my progress.
Almost didn't post this as it's just a WIP, but I'm not sure if I'll actually finish this and I like the body segments.
IceWings have a different body shape compared to NightWings. Hard
I like Wings of Fire and Cult of The Lamb. I like to animate and I'm still struggling to find my own art style
