Attempting to create reference sheets for Honey so that physical Honeycrisp merch can one day be mine! Not bad for a first pass I think, though I always find Honeycrisp tricky to visualize in a 3D way. I know how she's meant to look, I just find it hard to keep her consistent... you can see in this gif that it isn't perfect and yet here we are! Attempting to give it a go! Maybe I'll get better!

I had started this with the intention of more cloud petticoats but somehow it evolved into ocean waves, so I just went with the flow~

Sorbet!!💕💖🤘🏻
With her newest design!!
So i made a few changes to her bio, like that she reunites with Branch when Kismet showed up. Also, the group of friends that traveled with her, i removed and placed them as friends with my other oc of a different story named Thorn
I did this cuz i love my friends' ocs a lot but i have a lot of ideas for Sorbet and a lot of them wouldnt work with a bunch of other ocs oof
Anyway, probs gonna do a comic or story for Sorbet maybe lol
A group of friends and I did a one shot recently in 5e. The catch is that they play something called “Dude Squad” where the only play “dudes” (not exclusively male people, just dude mentality) and they hate all magic and magic users. They think true strength is muscles and only muscles, and have in the past encountered magic users who they then convince to give up magic.
We got told to build a level 17 character for this one shot, most of the other folks had previous Dude Squad characters to resurrect. But I didn’t really want to play a straight martial class. In my heart, spellcasters are my true class, and I didn’t really have a strong idea of what kind of character to make.
So I approached the DM and said, “Hey, I have this idea to play a character that pretends to be a martial class but is actually a magic caster?” My girlfriends character is an aasimar who thinks he’s Thor and my backstory was that after meeting him and falling for him she decided to invest heavily in deceptive magic so as not to alienate him.
And my DM. Loved it. So he helped me build an extremely custom character. Two levels in Hexblade warlock gave her a good weapon and the ability to cast disguise self pretty much nonstop to appear buffer than she actually was.
Then there was four levels in Stone sorcerer in order to get 4 sorcery points, the ability to use those points to cast using Subtle Spell and no one could tell she’s casting, and to buff her AC.
Finally there was 11 Bladesong wizard levels in order to get some attack bonuses, even more AC, extra attacks, and the ability to burn spells to take less damage.
So the whole time I was burning spell slots to recharge my sorcery points every time I cast things like Haste and Spider Climb and use my Bladesong powers. We busted through walls and smashed our way through puzzles. We lied and said my character was a Barbarian/Monk so they didn’t bat and eye when she ran on walls with spider climb, but no one noticed when even after dashing she “held onto the stone wall” without any kind of check.
The final battle: the goblin wizard boss we were fighting had cast invulnerability on himself and had our friend mind controlled. So I’m trying to cover for not attacking as I try to dispel his invulnerability. I can no longer run on walls, or make the jumps my party is making on floating platforms over a spike pit so I try to use my actions on other helpful things like tying ropes for friends in the pit. I manage to dispel the magic on our friend but I burned almost all my spells trying to secretly dispel the boss’ spell and finally we just ended up grappling and suffocating him then pummeling him to death.
But at the last moment as we’re running out of this horrible goblin mansion I’m running down a wall and my friends are climbing down. The building says there’s 6 seconds left and my very injured love interest is not gonna make it so my character shouted “Fuckfuckfuck!” Ran over and cast dimension door to bring them both to safety. (Two people got left in the blast but both survived cause Dude Power). Then I critically failed my deception about how I had used magic and came clean and everyone lost their shit when they heard what we’d done. Her final confession, after dropping her buff disguise self, was, “When I met Kathor I really liked him and he freakin’ hates magic so I just kinda figured out how to hide that I was castin’ magic cause I though we might go to pound town.”
Kathor then declared, “I’ve never had someone try so hard to get in my pants!” And swept her up and they messily made out. It was deeply satisfying the wonders that DnD can create, like making a whole class based on the lie that you’re not spellcasting.
What inspired Ditzy Doo's Bubble Envelope Cutie Mark? It honestly so creative, pretty, and well...cute!!!
The iridescence - effect honestly reminds me of those SpongeBob Bubbles!
Glad you like it! I was inspired by the idea of Ditzy having a cutie mark that ties into her Element (that she delivers cheer!) and of course the AU is meant to take the existing background ponies and their traits and just give them a main character makeover! Ditzy is iconic so especially for her I wanted to make sure she had all her particular identifying traits - her wall eyes, her bright blonde hair, her bubble mark - while just making her design as if Hasbro wanted her to be a main character instead of her ascending to mascot status by accident!
So I came up with bubble envelopes! Delivery aspect + Original concept! Plus, I thought it could be a fun way to pull more colors in since even giving her a bit of brightening, she is still the one with the most understated coat in the Swap Six - I did, in fact, reference the Spongebob bubbles, I find them very pretty!
Rarity actually has a decent friendly relationship with Ditzy due to frequent deliveries to her shop and helped her with giving her hoof-me-downs of baby Sweetie Belle for baby Dinky - so the two are quite friendly and I could have drawn that…
… She also is down bad for Sea Swirl and I chose to draw that instead!
Sea Swirl is studying to be a doctor, she is close to having a whole doctorate in marine biology and yet she has line cook rizz. So she will flirt with Rarity when passing through Ponyville and Rarity melts like a marshmallow.
*kisses him*
*gives him everything*
It’s my birthday! 🎀🌸 Time for another updated MTA! >:)
