HELLO EVERYONE! :D

marbleyarns spiritcookie and I went to bronycon together, but it didn’t go as well as we had hoped…it actually didn’t go as well as our worse expectations either. ;c

SO in order to try and makeup the different, we’ll be holding a late night stream to raise funds! 

Thus, a DOODLES FOR DONATIONS MULTISTREAM EVENT! We will split the funds evenly between the three of us, and hope to raise as much as we can to break even, and being optimistic hopefully earn more to pay off some bills. Our ultimate goal would be ~900-1200$ (300-400 each), but we’d be grateful for any help and you get awesome art in return! ; w;

If you’d like to for some reason, help us out without getting art in return, you can click here to contribute. <33

If anything we’d love to have you stop by and hangout and would be grateful for the reblogs and sharing the event around! <3

See you then!

Goat bebe helps me write in the dairy log while her sister gets into trouble with a hay feeder. These two are such fun to be around!

I got bored and made a giant character generator.  7 different categories with at least 17 options each (some have more), including fantasy, sci-fi, supernatural, modern, and historical possibilities… which means that characters can get ridiculous really fast (like flamethrower-wielding, Feudal Japanese cyborg priestess with a pet unicorn). Have fun with what you get or try a few times if you want a serious character. 

If you do make a character with this, tag ‘characterdesigninspiration’ so I can see them!

So apparently I am a bony dragon alchemist with heterochromia who wields a scythe and dresses in the style of the Yaun Dynasty and goes on adventures with his pet phoenix.

A short, freckled, demon witch, dressed in the style of the ancient Egyptians, wielding a pole arm, and accompanied by a pet unicorn.

I think I know what I'm drawing tonight!

Cookie and I went to take the baby goats out for a little romp, and they jumped and crashed about! This little gal doesn't have a name yet, and is a week old as of 5/2.

Apologies for using tumblr video x_x

I've read some of the art critiques you've posted in the past, and I always enjoyed how well thought and level they were—honest and constructive. I was hoping I could request a critique on the last piece I posted (in sepia, featuring Celestia and Luna) /tagged/arting. I'm not pleased with it and want to rework it. I know you probably have a lot going on with your own work and school, and good critique takes effort, so I understand if you don't have time for this sort of thing. Cheers!

Awww… thank you. I’d love to. First, tell me a little about it, so I can make the best critique I can. What’s the piece about—what’s the mood/feeling/narrative you’d like the piece to convey? What is it that you’re not pleased with (if you know)?

I have two siblings, and together the three of us are very close. We've done a lot together and all encouraged each other's growth. Even though we all go our own ways now and then, coming back together again, discussing the past and present, is one of the most wonderful things. I imagined such a bond for Celestia and Luna.

I wanted the scene to be about the two, together as siblings, visiting a place which might not hold the best of memories—offset by chancing upon their collective journal, a symbol for the positive memories they share.

It didn't print as well as I would have liked, which was one of the purposes of the piece. But I also felt that it didn't convey the sense of place or atmosphere that I was hoping for. The set was to contrast the warm feeling of discovery between the sisters with something slightly foreboding, perhaps; evidence of a troubled past.

Hopefully that is enough to build off of! Already, I think that one of the problems might be that I did not consider these questions very thoroughly when I started the piece. x_x

I'm not sure if Captain Luna is over/on hiatus/something else, but if it is, I totally understand. It's your decision to give us your effort and your art, of course, and it's easy for circumstances to change. But... only if it's not coming back, can you tell what the future of the story is? Like, what happens next? What about after that, and, well, after that? How does it all end?

I don't think the Captain is quite out of commission yet!
