Description
...or how Celestia got her cutie mark?VIEW IN FULL VIEW.
Someone requested epic Princess Celestia some time ago (actually, a VERY long while ago), so I thought, why not? So here you go, the result of an exaggerated hiatus and much laziness. My magnum opus! Quite proud of this myself, if I may say
. Tried a different style if you can tell, and unsure whether I like it.Anyway, I'll post an actual update to stuff going on when I can be bothered. As usual, critique is welcome and encouraged!
*escapes on another hiatus while people are distracted*

I am the dawn
Life is dead when light is gone.
So we must light the wayΒ
For loving day
And life's sake
For solar reign
Our empire shall never fall
They say that we are weak
But that is false.
To glory. . .

"...But the other gods said to one another, speaking with their hands: 'What is it that Kib has done?'
"And they said to Kib: 'What are these things that move upon The Earth yet move not in circles like the Worlds, that regard like the Moon and yet they do not shine?'
"And Kib said: 'This is Life...' "
--Lord Dunsany, "The Gods of PegΔna"

I thought so, im currently trying to move over from soft brushes to chalk brushes (it doesn't always work for me lol)your pictures very nice, its hard to get strong colors to work together without them dominating each other so extra cool ^_^

You seem to be experimenting with so many different techniques *_* IMO you need to work on your basics such as lighting and colour theory. When picking colours try to use colours directly opposite or right beside the primary colour. They should work well.
And thank you!

Yeah guess I find it hard to settle on a single style lol but thanks for the advice about colours i'll try to work on it.

Things like this often come from serendipity, I just work on it and paint out what comes to mind!
π: 0 β©: 1
but thats the thing, i got moments from the bigger inspiration, but it is hard to me hold that on my mind for the long time that i spent drawing something, and when i do, great part of the original image on my mind get lost, and i finish doing something totally diferent, but you catch all that and turn it into a big piece of marvelous art in this and every single piece of your gallery, if you were me maybe you may understand how much I do respect you, and how much you awake a new taste for the art on me , and how much your works inspire me to be a better artist, i hope reach the point I felt you reached and going beyond far

Sorry for the late reply, but I've been busy these few days. I suppose what we do draws (see what I did there) from different skillsets. I'm (relatively) good at turning a whole bunch of ideas and inspirations into one big epic piece like this, while you're better at focusing on one idea or design before it fades away and gets replaced by new ones. Maybe that's why you're so great at drawing characters and I'm not. If you told me to draw a character, I'll admit I won't be able to do it.
I'm glad and touched for the amount of respect you have for me, I really am, but I hope you'll keep in mind that I'm hardly the best artist out there

thank you, i gonna keep telling that, you are the best ,because there is only 2 persons in the world that inspire me every time that i watch his creations ,and those persons are you and my drawing teacher.
maybe, we are good with the skills that we learned and developed, and that is what make us relatively good.
finally, you may always count with a big fan of you
