  • Newbie Artist Training Grounds IX: Day 23

    by Calpain

    While artists all develop their own styles and their own identities over time, it's nice to try drawing in a way outside of what you're used to. You might just pick up on some techniques that you didn't know about before and get a better understanding for how other artists draw in their own style! I was impressed how many of you took to these new styles and I'm sure the artists you mimicked would be flattered to see you chose them.

    For today's total we brought in 74 ponies which now brings us up to 2443 ponies altogether!

    Today's prompt is another new one but for a very special reason. With the show ending this year I figured we could go down nostalgia lane a little bit with this one. Today I'd like you guys to
    Draw a pony experiencing your favorite moment in the fandom / Draw a pony experiencing how you discovered FiM for the very first time (SFW).

    As always our submitter is here.

    Animations do not animate when sent through the compiler! Include some text with your submitted animation that people should follow your links to the source to see the animation in full.

    Remember, our compiler is up a few hours even after this post goes up so feel free to submit your submission to our submitter!


    Also, if you are late submitting and the submitter is closed, don't just throw your pic into the next day's submitter. Wait for a Makeup Day to submit!

    Attention Discord Users:

    For those of you with Discord we are really pulling out all the stops this year as we have a channel on EqD's official Discord server called #artist-training-ground for you to hang out in with your fellow artists during the event. You can join our Discord server here.

    Check on after the break for today's gallery!

    Tutorial on First Day on How to Upload


    Art Tutorials

    1 Natg day 22 Kree-ate - Roderick JE

    Art image 1
    Super shout out to the past when that person made that Hope parody poster for Lauren
    It makes more sense to have Spitfire as CM however the mighty pun shall rule my actions



    2 Who Wouldn't Fangirl?! - Pone-Dancer

    Art image 2
    Empathy Gemstone only has eyes for privileged, overly-handsome males. LennyStendhal13's character Jambalaya seemed to fit that perfectly. It's not every day a fellow like this walks into your town, so she's absorbing it while she can.




    3 Atg201922 - ManDuMustBasukaNemen

    Art image 3

    4 Lineless Oleander - Huffy26

    5 A horse fanboying - RainbowDash1804

    Art image 5
    Starlight is best pony



    6 Apologies to Lumineko - phallen1

    Art image 6
    An attempt to mimic lumineko/luminaura's pony painting style. Lumi is one of several artists whose streams I tend to watch frequently. I try to learn as much as I can from them.



    7 ATG 2019 D22 - Happy - Dusthiel

    Art image 7



    8 ATG2019 22 - Trixie fangirling over herself - Wissle

    19 Fan-anoying - LizardWithHat

    Art image 19
    Lizards really are creepy sometimes ^^'



    20 OMG IT'S RAT - Ragmo

    Art image 20
    She usually is composed and keeps her cool. But today our heroine meets 'rat'; someone she looks up to and who's work she realy likes.
    I didn't want to draw an AJ - so a simple rat has to do it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯



    21 Ponystar Limo - bobthedalek

    Art image 21



    22 NATG2019 - DAY22 - Biggest Fan - DarkDabula

    So one of the artists who inspired me a lot is Atryl.
    And yeah... I know that was aiming a bit high...



    25 Drawing like an inspiring artist - Alexander Williams

    Art image 25
    My (really bad) attempt at drawing like adorkabletwilightandfriends. Traced on a separate sheet of paper, then freehanded from looking at the traced copy.

    40 Honeysuckle internally fangirling while watching season 3 of Stranger Things - Myu_Mochii

    Art image 40



    41 ATG IX Day XXII - RizDub

    Art image 41
    Drawn in the style of Heir-of-Rick / Finalskies. Alongside the giant fluffy ears, I feel like his drawings have just the right amount of chubbiness, and I've always loved that.



    42 Day Twenty-Two - Caneighdian

    Art image 42



    43 Pilot Scootaloo - BenjiK

    Art image 43
    Ponyfied version of a sketch by Murata Renji.

    Art image 45



    46 Applejack in Yakoshi's and Moozua's styles - Vixenwolf123

    Art image 48



    49 NATG IX: Day 22 (Apogee) - Squeaky_Belle - Squeaky_Belle

    Art image 49
    Entry for Artist Training Grounds IX: Day 22
    Draw a pony in an artist’s style that inspires you / Draw a pony fanboying/fangirling.

    Art style is similar to some of comickit's space pony art. Can check out a couple of examples by scrolling through here: https://winkout.tumblr.com/tagged/horse-music



    50 Biggest Fan - Allonsbro

    Art image 50
    My first thought for this prompt was an old headcanon I have about Pound Cake being a big fan of Scootaloo when they get older. I tried to mimic Ravenpuff's style and I leaned really heavily on some of her stuff for reference to get it to look right.



    51 NATG 2019 Day 22 - Addelum

    Art image 51
    Inspired by Huffy26's drawing somewhere above this post.



    52 Apologies to Kloudmutt - phallen1

    Art image 52
    An attempt to mimic some of Kloudmutt's drawing style. His is another stream I watch a lot. I've "borrowed" rather a lot from kloud since I started trying to draw. My go-to inking brush in SAI is still "Kloud's Inking Pen".



    53 Rarity(kiraki style) - Mellie

    Art image 53



    54 ATG Day 22 - Pony fangirling - Shoop Hoerse

    Art image 54



    55 With Apologies to Heir-of-Rick - SupermarineSpitfire

    Art image 55
    Currently there are four artists that I can say inspire me: VanillaGhosties, Bobdude0, Heir-of-Rick, and Baron Engel. Since my current artistic ability prevents me from giving Baron Engel and VanillaGhosties's art the respect they deserve, what with their mastery of depth, I had to choose between Bobdude0 and Heir-of-Rick. A flip of the coin made me choose Heir-of-Rick. There is a vibrant simplicity to his drawings that I really enjoy.



    56 Inspired by... - ReddTheBat

    Art image 56
    One artist who’s enspired me in SloppyGore (@sloppygore)



    57 Hope Hollow's Rainbow Dash Fanclub - PalominoPone

    Art image 57



    58 Scootaloo Fangirling (pixel art) - SuperHyperSonic2000

    Art image 58
    Here's a pixel art I recently did of Scootaloo fangirling for her favorite Rainbow Pegasus. I hope you guys like it.



    59 Fan Gasp - Frith

    Art image 59
    As much as I'd love to do a Monet of Rarity in a wide brimmed hat, I stumble and fall when just trying to sketch in show style, so trying to forge some master's art style at the drop of a hat is a really tall order. But that's just me. I expect there are some who are totally going to nail a My Little Monet, Picasso, Rembrandt, Chagall, Van Gogh, Davinci, or Michelangelo...



    60 MirtaSH style - Dani

    Art image 60



    61 Graphene inspires me - Heir of Rick

    Art image 61

    Art image 64



    65 - ZetaMad

    Art image 65
    I was going to use a brony artist, but I decided to take inspiration from the artist who inspired me to draw first, zdzislaw beksinski



    66 Happy Limestone - t72b

    Art image 66
    Didnt really do a specific artists style, but more theme. cute pony in cute clothes. but Im not good with fashion



    67 - SazerLite

    Art image 67



    68 Belle Watches Her Favorite Musician Perform on Stage - TaichiKeaton
