"Dog try." XD Oh my gosh, I love this! So cute and terrifying at the same time. Always a nice combination. I love Dog's name so much! I also love how the 'R' is backwards. -
That is GORGEOUS. She was already a vibrant and beautiful character but now it's just stunning. The colors blend so well and I love how flowy the dress is. You have a keen sense of folds when it comes to clothing. I also love the background. The fading effect in the distance really sets everything in place and I adore how the dress is lightly dipped into the water, creating a little ripple effect. it gives off a very peaceful atmosphere. The pose and expression contribute to this as well. I love it! -
From the album: MLP FiM Characters
I really enjoyed that episode. My art was a little rusty when I drew this because I hadn't drawn in awhile. It's also closer to the show's style than I intended but I seem to do that when it's the first time I draw a character. There's a fair share of things bugging me with this one but overall I'm pretty happy with it. *nodnod* Edit:: Because of the dark backdrop, some mistakes are showing up that I didn't notice before. Eh, I'm too lazy to edit it right now. It might be magically fixed later though. :I -
I really need to open commissions right now but I will probably go ahead and start the Peachy thread anyways cause the commissions are usually pretty slow-going.

@PretzelponyIt's gonna be about Peachy setting up a portrait drawing stand in his store where ponies can get themselves painted (which means I draw them!) I was also thinking about adding a second element but haven't really come up with that yet. I think there might be a chance of someone becoming his assistant though since he's been having trouble running the place all by himself.
@Zeig Awww thank you! That is true and besides, things always go a little slow in a thread as large as this one will inevitably be so I should stop worrying about "the right time" to post it. XP

I know a certain Stallion that would LOVE to be his cute Peach's Assistant

From the album: MLP FiM Characters
I can't believe this is the first time I've drawn one of my favorite background ponies. This one was a lot of fun. I experimented again by painting over the sketch and only using a small amount of layers. I made quite a few breakthroughs when it comes to lighting. All in all, I'm pretty happy with this one! I've been told that the face is more colt-like but I kinda like it. Maybe I'll go for a more feminine look next time? I dunno. -

Behold the most adorable diamond doggie! I'm a little out of practice right now and decided to draw some stuff before I start the Peachy thread. This one is a little experiment. I didn't use layers and just painted over the sketch. It's quick, fun, and looks good so I think I might be using this style for the portrait thread. I don't think this is Riffy's actual hairstyle, but by the time I noticed it was too late. ^^ Riff Raff belongs to Zeig (There was an error the first time I tried to upload this so there might be duplicates.)- 2 comments

When I try to upload to the gallery, I get:
Sorry, there is a problem
FILE_DOES_NOT_EXISTError code: 1S111/1
Does that mean it's not going through, or should I just leave it alone and it'll show up in a bit?

I get this too, but i usually am able to upload the next day.

I'm glad you figured it out. I did check your permissions and everything checks out on the Admin end.

Socks. Socks, Everywhere.

Oh noes, I forgot to comment on this one! D: Firstly, female Inkbrand is adorable! And you're right, the first thing I noticed was how much I loved the way the face was drawn. Heck, I love how the whole thing is drawn but the face is super adorable. It would be amusing to see Inkbrand and socks come together in an RP. I like socks because of how simple it is to draw them and all the different colors and designs that can be added with little effort. Basically I'm lazy. XD But I'm surprised there aren't more sweaters and scarfs on ponies. I find those most adorable. Especially the turtle neck sweaters and scarfs that nearly engulf their faces. X3 -
Omg this style is the cutest thing. Look at the chibi little pones! I adore the expressions on each of their chubby little faces. Sky's is cracking me up for some reason. XD Again, I really love the writing and there is a very big sense of motion here too. The manes and stuff are lining up perfectly with the direction of the wind so it looks very smooth and flowy. These doodles are so simple yet so fun and adorable to look at. -
Awwww, I love the little RP snap-shot doodles. The simplistic style is so cute. I love how the eyes are little dots and each character has emotes above them. It gives it such a sense of motion for some reason. And the handwritten title is super adorable. -
Sorry bout dropping off the site for a little bit right after announcing my upcoming thread. Things are settling down now and I'm going to start working towards Peachy's Portraits once more. Not sure when it will be up yet though but I'll be keeping you updated.

A very sweet and adorable little dog just showed up at our house. She has a collar so I'm thinking she's lost. RP plans are probably gonna be a little slower while I take care of her and try to find her owners.

now that you're in a better situation, May I inquire what breed she is?
-
She looks a lot like this pic I found on google images.
I think she's a blonde wire hair terrier mix. I have an actual picture of her but I can't get to it at the moment.

I think I forgot to update on this situation. No one ever claimed her so I found her a new home. She now lives with a loving family with a big yard and another doggie that loves chasing laser pointers as much as she does!
-
Omg, look at these babies! I can't believe you have a special picture just for their log entries. It's so cool! in fact, your character log is so organized, informative, and ADORABLE! That little chibi group picture at the very top is too cute I can't handle it. Makes me want to fix the mess I call my character log XD I totally understand not being able to stop making OCs. It's just so much fun I tells ya. Besides, who would ever complain about new Zeig characters? I certainly wouldn't. -
Fear not, peeps. A few things have slowed me down but the Peachy's portraits thread will be up either this week or the next.

O.M.GOODNESS. I adore the way this character looks SO much! Zeig, your art made her look AMAZING! That mane is sooo pretty and fluffy looking and everything is drawn so awesomely. As always your style brings out the best in these characters. And LunarDisplay, the design for this pony is one of my absolute FAVORITES. The colors stand out so much and blend so so so well. As soon as I saw the thumbail, I had to click on it. She is freaking adorable! Another thing, Lunar. You went through my gallery and liked a bunch of my pictures too and I SERIOUSLY appreciate it! Maybe when I open up the Peachy's Portraits thread, Starshine can drop by and get herself another drawing. -
I love how complex and elegant his outfit is, not to mention intimidating. I know he's supposed to be evil but his hair is BEAUTIFUL! XD I love how the teal mane blends so well with his grey coat and the white tip at the end of the bangs is just what it needed. The red eyes really stand out too as well as the scars. Also his cutie mark is pretty. I love characters that are rather beautiful even though they're the bad guys. -
From the album: OCs
I've been thinking about making a giraffe character, but I haven't put too much thought into her yet, especially since I'm not totally sure they would be an acceptable species here. All I have right now is that she loves scarfs and her personality will be based off of Spike from Cowboy Bebop. XP- 5 comments

Omg I didn't realize Peachy was accepted already! Looks like it's time for me to start scheming his next thread.

Well the only thing that's keeping him in check is his bestie Inkbrand and the possibility of finding his sister again. They're the only opinions he cares about. However, he honestly can't stand the princesses or the political state of Equestria and is getting tired of sneaking around in the shadows. He is starting to get a bit power hungry, and if he thought he lost Inkbrand and gave up on finding his sister, there's a possibility of him turning to the dark side if someone gave him a little push. And Zeig, another thing I forgot to mention about Shadowmane is that you really have her looking like she could be a number of things. She could be an extra tall/slim pony or maybe even an alicorn with a broken horn or something. I bet that's a theory someponies would have about her. It's so perf. X3 -
Awwwww, he's so cute. Look at the duckie on his cape! LOOK AT IT! I adore the purple accents in the handkerchief and the eyes. That combined with his main color and light tips makes his design so great. He's seriously one of my favorite diamond dogs I've seen. He's gonna be so adorable in action! X3 -
*GASP* I've been wanting to see a drawing of her. She looks amazing! I love the outfit and mask. So dignified, mysterious and menacing. You drew the hood so perfectly too, and the folds/details are spot on! Another thing I have to mention is THAT SYMBOL! I freaking love that. It's so sinister yet elegant. If the right things happen at the right time, August might actually consider joining WRAITH.

I was randomly designing a gypsy vanner type pony when I realized that she looked like how I envisioned Momo's mom. I don't really have a name for her yet so feel free to give suggestions if you want. I might app her at some point as well as the rest of Momo's family.- 7 comments

I was recently watching a lot of Twilight/Rainbow episodes and I gotta say I really love their chemistry, and the fact that they bond over books is just too adorable. I couldn't help but draw these two little eggheads.- 6 comments

Knowing Peachy and his love for all things flashy, he would totally be into wearing socks. He'd also be into posing for a photo out in a field in the middle of the night. Gotta get that perfect shot to really show off his grandeur. -
Peachy's Portaits
CaptainMcDerp commented on CaptainMcDerp's gallery image in Canterlot Community Art
Hehe I might do that, but I feel like I'm still learning so much myself. One of the main things I do is shade it with the "watercolor" brush and then touch it up with an extra layer on the "dodge" setting on FireAlpaca. After that, I use a hint of Color Balance on Photoshop CS.
