• Newbie Artist Training Grounds: Day 19

    This is an alternate version of a submission that was sent in tonight. I am using it here because holy crap look at those eyebrows! Ahem. So, tonight this space is going to be all about how I took the high road and did not make an extended Persona 4 reference. And I'm actually playing it as I type this, so that is no small feat. What evil lurks in the heart of ponies? We've got a lot of artists ready to show us just what's lurking on the other side of the mirror. How many? 175. I feel like I'm thinking it a lot these days, but this quickly turned into one of my favorite themes. You are constantly outdoing yourselves and I can't get enough of it. By the way, tonight pushes our grand total to 3,729 entries. Ever onwards, friends!

    Exciting part over, boring part start. Have some submission guidelines. And go ahead and send questions or use phoe@equestriadaily.com as an alternate submission source if things go haywire. I'm being really good about answering everything sent to me lately!

    The Theme of the Day

    Draw a pony in love. As much as anything, I'm curious to see how you will choose to represent this idea. And before you get mad at me for springing Training Grounds: Shipping Edition on you, please keep in mind I didn't specify what they had to be in love with, or what type of love it had to be. Show me ponies reveling in their passions! Show me feeling! And then, yes, I also like kissing. I'm weird like that.


    I can't really think of anything else to transition into tonight's gallery with, so let me tell you the story about a dream I had once in which I got to see another me. So here I was, driving a car down a back road near the house where I grew up. It's a beautiful day, I've got nice music on the radio, and I'm having fun visiting this place I haven't been to in years. I'm not driving especially fast, but I'm also not paying a great deal of attention. A turn catches me off guard, and I crash, flipping my car upside down. Suddenly I am standing on the side of the road. I've been walking down this road that leads to my old house, and I see there is a car that just got into an accident. I try calling 911, but my cell phone doesn't work. So I rush over to try and help. There's a person passed out face down just outside the wreckage. I reach out to touch her, and my hand gets all bloody. "Hey, wake up." She doesn't answer. Blood is pooling all over the road. I turn her over, and... it's me. "Hey! HEY! Wake up! Wake up, damn it!" And then I woke up. I hate that dream.

    "You are about to enter another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land of imagination. Next stop, the Twilight (Sparkle) Zone!"

    2. Things I learned today:

      I like drawing Fluttershy, it's easy and fun.

      I do not like drawing Twilight, it's not easy or fun.

    3. I'm praying to God someone will use Kismesis, Auspicticeship, and Moirallegiance.

      #168 reporting in and just in the nick of time.

      wanted to add a bit more like a breast plate as well as fine out the fiery mane and tail, but I simply ran out of time. :(

      Either way, as always good work everypony.

    5. #151 here. First vector in a while. I just had to make the chicken a cockatrice. xP

    6. Is staring at a color wheel really more entertaining than kicking apple trees?

      ReplyDelete
    7. #172 Heyar. I don't think the speech bubble did Orangejack's Rarity-esque personality much justice. :B

      ReplyDelete
    8. #157- I would've loved to see Applejack Corleone by herself. XD

    9. Man PS crashed on me and I had to rush it in just now...

      hope it gets in, I cut some corners but it looks pretty cool I think,

      7 is amazing
      160 is awesome

      ReplyDelete
    10. 108! Collabs are fun!

      The dark link pinkie was brilliant. and so much colorless dash.

      I'm suprised no one just inverted a picture and submitted it, to be honest.

      ReplyDelete
    11. Fluttershy's evil twin is Doctor Insano.
      Derpy's evil twin is Professor Membrane.
      Celestia's evil twin is Celestia.

      ReplyDelete
    12. 175 Yay I got in, hopefully it's not tooo horrible for everyone. I need to figure out how to work faster, and not go overboard (I decided how to make grassines and moons while doing this..., that took a while)

      I love you Phoe, but Its quite obvious that I am going to draw something else [cough **muffins** cough cough], but that will be later, cause I got an exam to study for now.

      ReplyDelete
    13. 63 was my favorite of this batch. That's one of my favorite episodes of South park.

      ReplyDelete
    14. Lots of good ones today - and several outright hilarious. Still kinda miffed I couldn't find anything to draw. Oh well.

      Now, "in love", you say? This, on the other hand, is downright BEGGING to be Disney-fied to the extreme. Now just to pick a movie to be ponified... oh my. That just might be hard part xD

      ReplyDelete
    15. #4 Present.
      To be honest, the image at the top was my first attempt at an evil twin. Mostly because of the mention of 'another dimension' that's just what I was thinking. :P

      But it turned out so cool that I wanted to keep it there.
      Goth Pinkie FTW

      ReplyDelete
    16. Phoe, I can't tell you how much it made me giggle to see EYEBROWS as your post image - I'm glad it got some use!

      There's some really creative inversions and opposites of characters here! It makes me wish I'd had the time and inspiration to do more than throw a goatee (and EYEBROWS) on Angel. Great work, everypony!

      I really liked the Vinyl Scratch and Octavia flips, and #103 is hilarious!

      ReplyDelete
    17. #134 here. I think of him as Stefano Fernico (complete with an affected Latino accent), but I'm all ears if someone has a better name. :]

      I'm a particular fan of #50, #77, #87 (can't beat that logic, Applejack), #94, #97, and #103 (I shouldn't have laughed so hard, but I did).

      ReplyDelete
    18. #118 here! This was a lot of fun to do! Too bad my idea wasn't unique! Oh well. *snickers*

      ReplyDelete
    19. Shadowbolt Dash is SO AWESOME!
      also, Scootatrice made me LOL

      Also, I drew Sethisto cube for Day 17 but no one mentioned it then!

      ReplyDelete
    20. #124, standing by. (Why has no-pony else paraphrased Red Squadron [Star Wars] with their number check in yet?)

      I should of probably looked up what a clay pigeon flinging device looks like, and is called for that matter.

      ReplyDelete
    21. I love all of these, especially #119 and #145.

      ReplyDelete
    22. #90 here. Was kind of bummed I couldn't think of anything funny.

      I love what everypony came up with! Favorite today was 103. I laughed soooo hard.

      ReplyDelete
    23. №103 - Bwahahaha! ;A;
      №135 - We need more evil Celestia, I guess. I wonder - what was made Celestia jealous in that alternate universe?
      №155 - SCIENCE, SON!

      ReplyDelete
    24. I really like 119. Really fits the opposites of both characters.

      ReplyDelete
    25. #1 here. That's what I get for being a total insomniac. Anyway, a good number of these made me giggle.

      ReplyDelete
    26. I love 155! I love it so much. A lot of these were really amazing. The Octavia one at the end comes to mind, and the one where Scratch and Octavia switch is awesome. Great work everypony!

      ReplyDelete
    27. #170 here. "i'm just relieved to finally be done." Yes, Rarity, so am I.....

      #94 and #119 are my favorites from this batch, Shadowbolt Rainbow Dash is wicked!

      ReplyDelete
    28. I'm №49 yet again xD Must be my lucky number or something.Was really fun drawing Applejack as part of the Orange family.

      ReplyDelete
    29. #135 here
      I'm surprised not many did the inverted colors thing. I thought it was gonna be everywhere so I wasn't very motivated to draw that.
      Also I like #174

      ReplyDelete
    30. I don't think I'll have anything for this next one. I'm not getting a muse off today's theme, and I've used almost all the scrap paper in the house.

      ReplyDelete
    31. I really love the things the community comes up with for this event... I need to stop making excuses for myself to avoid it and make the time to just jump right in.

      But I say that to myself every night... *sigh*

      ReplyDelete
    32. #53 here. I enjoyed doing this one, even if it meant I stayed up till almost midnight on this one, and then didn't get any sleep this morning. Woo.

      I probably won't be joining in with today's. I just don't like the theme, personally.

      ReplyDelete
    33. @Phoe Consarn it! You drive me to ship for today's theme XD

      I will give it my best. Don't know what I'm going to do yet.

      Great job everypony! A lot dark ones out there I see. Love the NegaDash! Best luck with today theme! Stay strong Bronies!

    34. I promise I'll stop drawing my OC now.
      I was just doing it until I felt comfortable enough to not mutilate anyone you guys know or care about.

    36. @Crimson Valor

      You should!

      Even if it's just a half-hour to sketch something out on scrap paper, that's at least participating - and once you've got your hooves wet, it gets easier from there :)

      ReplyDelete
    37. 167, reporting in.

      Was gonna get to bed early tonight because I stayed up till 2am doing artist training last night....

      Did not factor in that it happens every night :P so here i am again.

      Can't believe I actually got that colourized in time (I was done like 2 hours early so i went for it - couldn't have me submitting before 11:58, right?)

      I'm definitely glad that I'm still participating in this, regardless of the black hole effect it has on my exam studying/machinima making time! I'm finally getting into legitimate drawing.

      Anyway, great batch of entries as usual, guys!

      Hmm...pony in love....

      ReplyDelete
    38. I'm #133, my first time drawing for the training ground and i hope to continue doing it.

      Neat works but i'm too lazy too re-spot them all Anyway, i lol'd with #56 #65 #89 #141 and liked a lot the Rarity of #119

    39. @Lunar Apologist CURSE YOU! From hell's heart, I stab at thee! (Those eyebrows are something to behold though!)

      Some brilliant stuff here, wich I could have come up with a better idea! There's always tomorrow. Or today. Time zones!

    40. Loved the Shadowbolt Dash.

      ReplyDelete
    41. @HawaiianShirtedPony#174 here! I was so inspired that I sketched it out last night right after seeing the theme. But then I got lazy today and didn't start working on it til late. I really meant to add more details and maybe a little blood splatter...

      Pinkie and Flandre are total opposites, if you think about it.
      Pinkie parties nonstop and is sometimes psychotic.
      Flandre is usually psychotic and stays away from parties.

      Also, I'm the guy who did that "Giggle at the U.N. Owen" piano thing a few days ago. I'm secretly hoping that all this inspires a flood of Pinkie + Flandre images.

      Lovin' today's entries. From Murderous Fluttershy to nnnnope to anti-Phoe to Derpy minus muffins to goatees to badass evil Celestia. So AWESOME!

      ReplyDelete
    42. Concerning 174:

      One little Pony girl left all alone;
      She she laughed when she should have run and then there were none.

      ReplyDelete
    43. Indecisiveness be damned, I hate myself now for trying to come up with something original (and ending up with nothing) instead of going with idea of rythm-hating evil Zecora.

      Lots of clever ones today, good (but a bit bloody) day overall.

      I think badzerg's style is starting to grow on me :)

      @HawaiianShirtedPony

      Thanks for the support, guys. :)

      Happily I get all of this Tuesday off work and school. No excuses this time.

      Even if I don't draw anything, I do always make the creative effort in at least coming up with an idea to draw. I had an Evil Crimson Valor all planned out for #18... Even if I never put a pencil to paper, the idea is there, waiting for the right moment...

    45. #34 "JUDAS!" "I don't believe you"

      ReplyDelete
    46. This is a really good batch, but #175 stood out because it took me a minute to notice a certain difference in the reflection. Freaked me right out. I'd love to see a continuation of #145.

      ReplyDelete
    47. 173 and in by the skin of my teeth. Mine is a weevil laugh! Thanks Phoe!

      ReplyDelete
    48. This is making me sad, I don't see my submission on here! I even posted it in the time range! I'm sure of it!

      ReplyDelete
    49. Phoe, you continue to surprise me with your knowledge of references. Do you, reader, recognize the scene? If not, begin here! And sorry for spoilers and all that.

      #131 tonight. This looked a lot better in my head, I swear. It's interesting because I've actually been wanting to draw out this scene for a while now, so of course the day the theme practically hands me the opportunity on a silver platter is the day I have a bunch of nonsense to do. Typical.

      If there's one takeaway from this however, it's this: anatomy studies are your friend!

      +favs include!: #10, #43, #56, #58, #60, #73, #106, and #160.
      #32: I don't know why, but every time I see this, I crack up laughing.
      #129: You, sir / ma'am, are most excellent.

      Also a shout out to BronyCray because I love that story.

      The Cutie Mark Delinquents are also pretty amazing.

      Yay(?), but...#63 scares the stuffing out of me...~

      ReplyDelete
    52. Wow, I WAS the only pony who thought of Fluttershy and the Woodland Critturs. Fancy that.

      Also 103 and 151 are just... sugar.

    53. @Moogie Brony

      There was something wrong with your submission. The tumbnail produced just fine but whenever I clicked on it I got a link to photobucket telling me there was no image at that url. So I had to cut it. My deepest apologies.

      ReplyDelete
    54. @Fox E:

      Oooh, I recognized it all right.

      I'm kinda wishing I'd never read that story, though, now. Good as it is, fanart for it is popping up all over the place, and every time I see that stuff my mind instantly drops back to chapter 8, the most shockingly heart-wrenching thing Id' ever read.

      But I become a follower at chapter 1, and I shall remain so until the end, come hell or high water.

      ReplyDelete
    55. Awesome entries, everypony!

      It was fun to play around with my "what if RD hadn't helped Fluttershy during summer flight camp" idea. That was stuck in my head from that episode on, and I think badflank Fluttershy turned out well. I really underestimated how much of a pain Twilight is to draw. As for the "hoofless gloves" I can't tell if they worked or not.

      #174 here. I was the one who MADE "Giggle at the U.N. Owen?!", and that's what inspired this pic!

      By the way, since you guys liked it so much, I stayed up another two hours to finish it (by adding blood, shading, glow, and more). LAUGH HARDER, PINKIE!!!

    64. #87 checking in. I'm a little surprised that (unless I missed one) I seem to be the only one to use the old trope of the bad guy in the black cowboy hat to signify AJ's evil twin. I had trouble coming up with an idea for this one for some reason so I'm glad it seemed to work out in the end.

      You guys obviously didn't have as much trouble with ideas as I did because there are a lot of great ones on display here. A few of my favorites include 5, 15, 49, 56, 65, 99 (and its alternate), and 121. Keep up the good work, everypony!

      8- this was one of my first ideas and I'm glad somebody drew her this way, looks awesome!
      26- I love Applejack's outfit here. It works so well!
      44- Heh, strung out Pinkie! Surprised we didn't see more mellow, pothead Pinkies o.o

    83. #21 today.

      There's a lot of really creative stuff here. I love all the different interpretations of characters, twins, alter egos etc.

      I have to say, though, that evil Fluttershy is a horrible idea. Not that the pictures were bad, or anything like that, it's just... a horrible thought. I did, however, really enjoy #95. I've always wondered what was up with that Longshy series. Or was it Flutterlong? I don't know...

      #115 here (I like being early! maybe I'll eventually get sub-100 :D )
      Evil!Phoe is writing a Cupcakes knockoff starring Lyra and Bonbon, if it wasn't clear.

      Props to 52 for having basically the same idea as me. *high-hoof*

      60 - what Phoe said. Shootaloo is an excellent name.
      99 - dat goatee
      129 - I approve. This is awesome. ( >>11545 )

    89. 123 today.

      A little backstory: I had a nice big, funny Trixie picture planned, but then my entire day fell apart. So when the cascade of negativity and crap finally ceased and I sat down to draw, all that I could think of was a very tired and depressed Pinkamina.

      Feeling better today though; giggle at the ghosties and all that.

    92. #147 here. I was basically going for a evil villainess version of Twilight by asking myself what might have become of her if she never learned the power of friendship. And what if being one of the most powerful unicorns went to her head and she became a power hungry battle mage? And then of course, I couldn't resist having her somehow being thrown into canon Equestria (it's magic, I ain't gotta explain shit! :P) and facing off against her canon counterpart. It was a little bit rushed, but I'm quite happy with how it turned out.

    96. I dont know why . . . but every time i read #1 I can only do it imagining the voice of Wandisimo from the fairly oddparents. facehoof.jpg
      #2 EmoPie . . . doesnt suprise me . . . I really love the look here >:)
      #14 OMC . . I was going to do that EXACT SAME PICTURE! o.o im glad i didnt tho, Woulda kinda been wierd to have two pics just about exactly the same . . .
      #16 D'aww isnt Trixie's evil twin soo adorable !!
      #21 LOL ...Interesting indeed.
      #22 Celly is so epic, she doesnt NEED an evil twin!
      #27 HAH, whats so uncanny about this pic, is i have both of them standing next to each other on my pc-cofee-table-thingy. I always took dewdrop to have an evil hidden side, something about her colorings screams sinister to me. Picture it, her in fluttershy's evil laugh frame from "the best night ever," or her in place of twitchy eyed fluttershy. It just works! I may have to draw that twitchy eye frame with her in place O.o
      #33 I second the approval of pretty dashie . . . or just maybe have regular dashie with a small ribbon in her tail. It would fit dashie too, the ribbon in the tail for horse riders mean "watch out, i will buck." As we all know Dashie is one to loose her cool. SO it would look great on her and serve as a warning to others >:)
      #39 CREEPY >.<
      #40 I could definately get used to that. *nods head*
      #43 Again i feel the same sentiments here, Why do i feel soo bad fro liking this pic . . . maybes its an inherent yern to see more of Flutterrage . . . O.o i dont know ... ANY WHAT THE HAY!! why is everyone picking on Dashie O\./0
      #45 OMC . . . this is wrong . . . Twilight could do that . . . LMAO
      #47 I-is... that. Fluttergrime?
      #58 AWW C'MON Celly Dont need no stinkin evil side. She lovingly and carefully takes care of that on her own. To truely rule peacfully . . . sometimes a few "rules" may and must be broken. We all know she does that on her own.
      #60 GENUINE!! This made me laugh pretty hard. good show!
      #63 exscuse me . . . i need to get a new pair of britches . . .brb
      #65 We need more situations where Twilight tries to help . . . This is well done :3
      #73 WONDERFUL!!! Truely wonderful!
      #79 Beautiful job on the mane and tail there!
      #83 YEAH "uuuuuuuuuuu" is right O.O I feel bad for laughing at this ( it made me laugh, i couldnt help it )
      #89 Why are evil prospects of the mane cast soo appealing O.o
      #94 oh dashie . . . thats so . . . AWESOME looking!
      #103 Well . . . uhm . .I-WTF I DONT EVEN... ( i did lol tho )
      #105 Wow i ... D'aww
      #116 Y'know... This would explain alot in a more lamens term. Really it would be an awesome FanFIC ( hint hint writers that write better than me LOL ) ANypony agree?
      #121 Ugh Gen 4 should never be subjected to any orignal counterpart they may of had. The gen 4's would prolly go on a Cupcake spree!
      #134 We need to see more of the Spa Mares . . .

      I had a lot of fun drawing this and learned a lot more about PaintTool SAI while doing so. I spent a good chuck of my day working on this(I've would've been done with it faster, but my problem is I like taking my time. If I'm gonna work in the art field, I seriously need to work on this). I know the pose is off, her cutie mark shouldn't have an outline on the bolt, also I apologize for the last minute name plop(my wrist was getting tired at this point).
      Anyway, thanks so much for featuring my piece. P.S. I'm loving all the evil Mackintoshes :P

    116. Guess I went a little crazy with this theme and ended up doing three separate pictures. #15, 103, and 161 today. 15 was so simple, and I knew it wouldn't be the only Eeeenope joke, so I couldn't let that be my only entry. 161 is rough and awkwardly posed, so I'm not thrilled with how it turned out.

      103 was fun, but I can't decide if the text adds anything to the joke or not. Maybe I should change it to "Rarity's evil twin never had quite the same flare for fabulosity." A little less clunky.

    118. @RommyWolf Can't edit posts, so I'll note here that a fic on Gilda and Dash's earlier lives together gave me an appreciation for your pic, so it gets a +fav from me for today.

      @Crimson Valor I know what you mean, that went from normal D= mode to full–on @Д@ mode real quick–like (and I'm loving every second of it).

      @Foxtrot Love the idea, but Rarity would probably question why you only drew the normal CMC. =P

      173: the prompt was 'draw an evil twin (pony)' so I drew a pony watching a weevil spin, and the prompt became: "Did I saw a weevil spin?". I wasn't in the mood for an evil pony, but I had to draw _something_ ponyish.

    121. 95 is about fluttershy being banished to the moon after stealing the royal pet. day 1 picture explained this somewhat, but it was among those 4 or 5 submissions that didn't work.
      these are stories about how she is coping with separation from her friends. she is optimistically insane at this point. you can see the images on my tumblr if you'd like.
