Hard to believe yet another year has passed us by as we now enter into another summer and yet another Newbie Artist Training Grounds. Not only is it my favorite event of the year, but one of Equestria Daily's longest running events. Plus, it is nice to post more than just the nightly and morning discussions, heh. I'm super excited as I am every year to see new and old faces take part in this month long event and I can't wait to see what you all come up with!
Of course, the NATG would not be here without a very important person. I want to give a big shoutout to the founder of the NATG, Phoe, who started the NATG way back when and took me on as a helper back when the event was young. The NATG would likely have never been or, at least, not in the same form we see today without her inspiration and diligence. Go give her a visit and some love at the link above!
Now, without further ado, onto the very first prompt for the NATG, an oldie we start every new training grounds with: Draw a pony standing / Draw a pony holding its ground.
You can find the compiler you'll be submitting your drawings to here! If you need some tips on drawing, check out our Tutorial Codex for hints and tips!
If the guide after the break is too confusing or not detailed enough, we have a guide written up by a past NATG participant, Lorewolf, covering in detail how to host your pictures, how to best take photos of art on paper, how to submit and more. You can find the guide here!
Important Details:
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.
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!
Max Image Upload Size is 4mb per pic!
