Swan Princess Pony
ANNIE MSSON


Made with markers. A medium I hardly ever use. Still doing details and stuff is always fun :)

Beachcomber
CARPENTER


This work was commissioned by halloweengirl, using pencil and colored pencils.

Sirtha Athrin, my Andorian Pony
COOKIE


Sirtha is the name of a character I play in a Star Trek Fanfilm. She's an andorian, a race evolved from insects, and that sports blue skin, white hair and antennaes. Based on a G3 classic drawing that can be seen on MLP boxes. She was done in China black ink, pantones alcohol-based markers and white pencil and pen.

Thazar
EVIL DEAD PONY


Pencil on plain paper, edited/ cleaned on Photoshop. My personal, single favorite piece. Ponies with goatees and axes rock.

Strawberry Reef
HOLLOWZERO


This was submitted to a "Design a G3" contest. I liked the name Strawberry Reef, so I went with it.. It's just Strawberry splashing through waves at a beach. =) I used pens, markers, and watercolor paint.

Strawberry Swirly
HOLLOWZERO


I think I had just recieved Strawberry, and she quickly became one of my new favorites. So I had to draw her. =) I used Prismacolor markers..and I didn't have the right colors. XD

Big Brother Pony Fun!
ICEGLIDER


A bunch of Big Brothers having a partay! Pen outline, colored with colored pencil.

Tropical Paradise
ICEGLIDER


Tropical Paradise is inspired by a silk painting of three Hyacinth Macaws I saw in a book. I used colored pencil and ink for outlines.

Glory
KAMLADOLLY


Colored with prismacolor pencils. The idea for this was just to have a close up drawing of one of the ponies and I wanted to have a lot of focus on the eyes. Glory really fit for this drawing.

Hour Glass
KAMLADOLLY


Colored with prismacolor pencil, pony design by Sugared Roses. Here I was going for more realistic looking clouds, and I like how the dark shading came out.

Milky Way
KAMLADOLLY


Colored with prismacolor pencils. Another one of my favorite drawings. I was going for a retro kind of look with the background. The darker circles were done with a metallic color pencil so the original drawing would shine.

Mommy and Baby Hour Glass
KAMLADOLLY


Colored with prismacolor pencil, pony designs by Sugared Roses. Detailed coloring with a nice simplistic background. I’m happy with how the interaction came out between the two.

Seashell and Bubbles
KAMLADOLLY


Colored with prismacolor pencils. Since there were bright colors being used, I chose grey for the background for a balance. I was also really going for giving some personality to the ponies here.

Wigwam
KAMLADOLLY


Made with prismacolor pencils. My main concern with this drawing was to get all the details (hat, symbol, scarf) accurate since I don’t have a Wigwam of my own. I also wanted to use good highlights on this drawing and using a white color pencil over the main color is my way of getting the high lights.

Lady Flutter's Flying School
LIL SKY SKIMMER


I used pencils only for this artwork.

Alitas Whirly
QP42


I used pencil, pen, and colored pencil.

Egypt
QP42


this piece of work was made for an egyptian themed contest. very detailed background. used pencil, pen, and colored pencil.

Pony's Pondering
SILLY BILLY


This gel pen art piece is created for Dearest Tragedy. In reality the pony is Moonstone, but I seem to forget the unicorn ponies' horns all the time *LOL* Anyhoo, the scene is inspired by a scene in Disney's Pocahontas. I thought it'd be so cute with a thoughtful pony, so here it is...

Romance
SILLY BILLY


I made this piece for Starlover2003. She requested a romantic scene with a grown-up Baby Ribbs and Baby Moondancer (with Hula Hula's tail), so that's what I did (except I forgot Moonie's horn!) Added some darkness, a full moon, twinkling stars and swirling leaves. Once again my medium is gel pens, and they have been particulary beneficial for the moons, stars and leaves.

Violet Unicorn
SUNDROP


Created using colored pencils.

Silvered and Top Speed
KAMLADOLLY


Colored with prismacolor pencils. Pony designs by Silvered. This drawing was really structured before I started coloring it. I wanted a backwards S curve to it with their eye contact guiding you through the drawing.

Ponies in Pencil
SUNBEAM


What better things to sketch than all the pretty ponies!
