My First Drawing O_O --WIP--

Well, howdy, ev'rypony! This here's mah first attempt at a drawin'!

Okay, that's not entirely true. I once did a terrible drawing of a chibi manga-styled character that I came up with on the spot. When I say terrible, I mean horrid. Of course, that's how most of my early art is going to be. Outside of art class in elementary school and middle school, I haven't really done a lick of art in my free time (well, except during a kind of emo phase in high school that consisted of a few moody sketches of hearts, weapons, and blood, but we'll pretend that didn't happen...), EVER. However, I've decided it's high time I try practicing stuff to see if maybe it's a skill that I can develop. And by stuff, I pretty much mean ponies and related things.

That being said, picking tonight as my starting point was a really stupid idea with all the homework I have. So, I'm quitting my work on this piece until I have more time. It only looks halfway decent because I'm basically trying to recreate Applejack from this pic: [link] Well, that and because I spent more time than I care to disclose doing just this tiny piece (seriously, you'd shake your head at me if you knew how long). I'm using nothing but my notebook, a mechanical pencil, and my perfectionism (which has to make concessions if I'm even going to finish the darned thing). Oh, and my phone to take a picture of it for uploading. Can you tell how much of an artist I'm NOT?


Anyway, here it is. Blah.
