I think all of your fruit ponies scared Phoe away! So I'm creating the post this time!
This time around, we have 266 entries! Feel free to add them to your Achievement List if you are participating in that as well. This post should load much more quickly thanks to some changes from Calamari.
As a reminder: Please submit everything through the submission tool, explained here!
I'm not sure if Phoe had anything specifically planned for today. I'm seeing a lot of earth ponies, so why don't we do a Pegasus one?
The Theme of the Day
Draw your favorite pony with WINGS(Any pony, you can magic some wings on!), breaking the sound barrier! How you want to handle the particle effects, or wing design, is up to you! If Dash creates rainbows, what does Twilight create?

259. I couldn't quite get the angles right on this one. I had a different pose in mind, but it came out worse than the above. I really need to give myself more time to do these.
ReplyDeleteSONIC BOOKBOOM.
ReplyDelete~Scratch
#233 ! :)
ReplyDeleteCreative artists are creative.
I think number 9 was my favirite!
ReplyDeleteAhh I don't know what I want to do for this next one. hmmm.
10. A nice whole number. I threw the text in, because the glow effect I used to show the magic kinda masked the plum-ness of the fruit itself. All in all, I spent well over 2 1/2 hours making sure it was good enough for submission.
ReplyDelete#5. Could not stop laughing.
ReplyDeleteLove #59 as well, but o' course all the rest are awesome once again! Great job, everypony. :)
Twilight wouldn't create anything. She lacks the wings and speed needed.
ReplyDeleteI knew at least one would make the "I will take an apple and eat it" Pinkie Pie drawing.
ReplyDelete#206 reporting in
ReplyDeletenot very proud of it but whatever these 2 weeks most of my drawings arnt gonna be that good cause of finals
#252.
ReplyDeleteI'm really loving this event so far.
177 is mine! I have mixed feeling about how it turned out...
ReplyDelete@Eliwood10 oops, make that 117
ReplyDeleteMine is #254.
ReplyDeleteDid I -seriously- make one of the ONLY TWO Gentlecolts pictures? (Other one: #256)
I swear, I thought there were gonna be a few dozen.
Is that, favorite pony with wings as in, our favorite pegasus pony? Or favorite pony and add wings?
ReplyDeleteWell, guess eye ain't in this one, couple of double posts here and there~
ReplyDeleteNumber 263 is mine. I nearly didn't make the deadline of midnight. It is my first 2D pony, even though I am making a 3D pony game! It could have used more work however...
ReplyDeleteI can't believe the results other people are coming up with!
Gah!!! Im a few mins late for day 41!!!
ReplyDeleteCAn you still take it Phoe?!
D:
hee!
ReplyDeleteNumber 15 was me :D
#131
ReplyDeleteI was gonna do Pac-Pinkie, but decided to do Applejack instead. And I do believe mine has one of the few oranges out of all of these.
I have no idea what I'm gonna do for the next one... maybe... naw. Well I'll sleep on it then.
Oh my dear sweet Celestia, Luna, and Angel the Bunny. @257
ReplyDelete256 = Unicornucopia?
ReplyDeleteHehe guess I'll be drawing Pinkie Pie breaking the sound barrier. Maybe I'll try coloring it this time.
ReplyDeleteHmm, looks like my submission derped while uploading through the submission form thing. (It looked fine in the 'preview'.)
ReplyDeleteHay, it even derped TWICE. It seems like my third submission worked, if you'd be so kind as to add it to the list.
I'm #196 (Espeon's National Dex number!) this time.
ReplyDeleteI'm not happy with the face. But I stepped away from it for a bit, and was not near a device to fix it on when I sent it in, so...
250) Hey! A Tamato Berry!
Any pony you want, just add wings!
ReplyDeleteHah. I knew I wouldn't be the only one to think "pony-eating fruit!?" *Brohoofs* to all who did that too.
ReplyDelete#69 is clever.
#168 I already saw on FA. Nice. (Though I see someone had a similar idea with Berry Punch... In fact, I see the idea several more times, kudo's to all)
#184 made me chuckle
#249 looks amazing
Woohoo, #260! Got mine in just in time!
ReplyDeleteI actually drew this one with the help of some friends. Twilight plays a prank on Celare which involves a giant apple and a bad paint job. Ummm...that's all...
#6 - Now I was 1 submit too early for my favorite number. *moar sadface*
ReplyDeleteI thought my idea would be pretty common.
Though I didn't see "too much" of it.
Amazing work as usual, everyone!
119, the first picture I've ever colored, I'm so freaking happy with that one! oh, and just to reinforce a point, Phoe and everyone else who runs this site is awesome!
ReplyDeleteSplendid work everyone! Liked the clever pick of #163
ReplyDelete#202! n.n Woo!
ReplyDeleteThe hardest part of Rainbow Dash is the tail, though the cutie mark is deceptively tricky. Also, raspberries. :3
Awesome stuff guys, a really nice batch of drawings. Mega props to #249, going WAY above and beyond what's needed. I didn't make it in today again but hopefully I'll find the time/inspiration to do one tomorrow (I hate half-assing these things)
ReplyDeleteI guess to make up for the last couple days I'll have to draw a Pegasus pony dressed as Trixie breaking the sound barrier while eating a fruit.
Challenge accepted.
oh i mean seth!
ReplyDeleteplease take my picture D:
Sweet! number 118.
ReplyDeleteI think the best one is 215. It's just so wild and awesome.
183 is a close second though.
Honorable mention goes to 18 and 59 for great lols.
258 here. Maybe this time I'll start before midnight EST >_____> smh at my picture. oh well.
ReplyDeleteToday's theme gives me ideas though... >:D
Damn, I should have made a Twilight picture lecturing Pinkie about that bananas aren't fruit. They're herbs/berries XD Didn't have time to make one today =(
ReplyDelete@ZAquanimus
ReplyDeleteYou're not alone ZA, mine's not there *sniff* time to go to bed, nighty nite Luna~
Appearently I'm the only one who chose a pumpkin :-)
ReplyDeleteNot quite happy with how it turned, oh well...
Lots of nice pictures today, like 12, 20, 43, 59, 129, 137, 198 and 208, just to name a few.
(Seth usurped this for his insidious)
ReplyDeleteLearned two new words today, thanks :')
Nice drawings as always ^^
I love going through all these pictures, there all really good!
ReplyDelete#9 has to be my favorite! Absolutely hilarious!
ReplyDelete#82,#89 and more
ReplyDeleteI see what you guys did there.
heh, I see "biting pear of salemenca" came out ahead of "killer tomato" by a couple instances. and not surprised to see so much apple family.
ReplyDeleteMan I didnt know it was attack of the killer tomato time.
ReplyDelete79 sour face
109 has to be one of my favs, like the colors
115 now I want some gummy ponies
216 nice! I like how you got away with not drawing the face
234 lol at rainbowdash in the moon
249 WOW Stunning.
Now Im hungry from all those delicious and scary looking fruits
#155 here!
ReplyDeleteThank you Celestia, my post is there ; u ;
I definitely love that Death Note parody XDDD
21 :3
ReplyDeleteSome of these are really good ^^
Favorites!
ReplyDelete84 (Applejack with big cute eyes loves her gigantic shiny red apple)
161 (Wow! Granny Smith eating a granny smith and so on model!)
186 (Fluttershy's head as an amalgam of metalic parts floating over a body of water... where's the fruit?)
195 (Don Quipony... I guess when you're a horse you don't require a mount when tilting at giant peaches?)
215 (Giant fruit! And the ponies are so happy!)
220 (Rain as a G4 pony)
Guys, I cannot apologize enough for letting you down. I had a massive power outage about 6 hours ago that only just ended. I've been trying everything I could to get online, but the entire town was blacked out until now (4:30 AM). Arg... I'm so sorry!
ReplyDelete@Phoe:
ReplyDeleteYou apologize as if you think we bronies could ever be the slightest bit mad at you. You have put so much effort into posting our pictures that I think nobody would assume it was your fault if the pictures didn't get posted. And they got posted anyway, so everypony was happy. Don't fret.
#190 and... #228? whoops. I'd go with #228 as my real one.
ReplyDeleteOverall I really liked how mine turned out.
Not even sure if anypony knew what fruit Luna was eating. Oh well.
Good job everypony for day 4's drawings. Didn't even think of a fruit eating a pony.
@Seth: don't worry I shouldn't be bothering you anymore with my questions. ;)
@Phoe
ReplyDeleteGlad you got your power back! Did you experience any pony withdrawal?
So how do you digitally color a pencil sketch and have it come out decently? I spent two hours trying to smooth out all the edges in mine (#248) and it still has awkward white pixels intermingled with all the outlines. Also not sure how to change those outlines to the proper colors, instead of just black.
ReplyDelete@Phoe:
ReplyDeleteYou have had so much thrown at you lately, it's hard to be actually upset at you in any way. You've done a great job so far with all this.
Also, you explained what happened, it's something that wasn't planned for, and I, for one, accept that things like that can happen. I know I'm not the only one that understands.
We all still love you, Phoe. :)
@Periphery
ReplyDeleteWell, mine (261) is not a good example because I was rushing like crazy, but basically I did not use my pencil scan at all in the final image. Just traced over it with an ink layer, then removed it when I was done. If I were better with my tablet I'd use the pressure to vary line width, then I could duplicate my sketched lines better.
@Periphery:
ReplyDeleteYou can go over your sketch with a vector editor like Inkscape or Illustrator and turn it into line art. Then it is easy to color in and change the colors of the outlines.
#14 YES THIS IS FANTASTIC
ReplyDelete#46 Fruit Ninja: This was an excellent idea!
@Periphery
ReplyDeleteEither use above suggestions; or, what I usually do is this (i use gimp but photoshop and co should be capable of this):
1: Gaussian blur the image. The radius should be about half the line width. This will (obviously) leave you with a blurry image.
2: use the "levels" tool or play with the brighness/contrast settings (in the end this is essentially the same thing) until your lines look as smooth and sharp as you want. Just make sure 'black' is really 'black'.
3: as for colouring, since you still have an antialiassed outline. Should you just paintbucket a colour in it will look ugly.
First make the background transparant, we're gonna do this all on layers.
Now, use a magic select tool thingie to select the area you want to colour. Because of the aliassing mentioned earlier, it will select a smaller area as desired, so look for a 'grow selection' tool. It depends on your input, but you usually need to grow it about 2-3 pixels.
now create a new layer, one behind the lineart and drop the colour.
you now have a smooth pencil-like lineart with colours inside.
178
ReplyDeleteAttempting sequential, colored art?
NEVER. AGAIN.
source on thread starting pic please :)
ReplyDeleteNow I know animated stuff won't show up. (68)
ReplyDeleteGot a great big kick out of #252!
Thanks for the suggestions on coloring; hopefully I'll have more success next time. I knew what I was doing had to be the entirely wrong way to go about it, but that was pretty much the first time I've ever colored a picture.
ReplyDelete254 ftw.
ReplyDelete@RaspleZS
ReplyDeleteI'm glad someone noticed that. ;D
My only regret is that I forgot to draw Applebloom's bow in the picture and didn't realize long after I scanned and uploaded it. I had to draw and color this thing around 1am in the morning while playing mafia with friends.
#130
ReplyDeleteI drew Dinky :3
And I messed up the front legs a little :P
Will draw something for this event. Missed the other events so far because of stuff, but have an idea for this...
ReplyDeleteI gasped at #9. Applebloom's name makes no sense now! @_@
ReplyDelete#174 here, had to take a picture of mine this time (no scanner @ parent's house). Quick question about today's draw-topic: Only the bold text is the primary topic right?
#71 checking in.
ReplyDeleteAfter a few days of participating, I'm starting to feel more and more conformable drawing these characters, and a little more adventurous in my ideas/composition as a result. Can't wait to see how much I (and everypony else for that matter) continues to improve over the new few weeks. Keep up the good work, guys!
#93 here :/ bit later than usual due tl err... lack of inspiration. Was thinking of doing a gentlecolts picture but I thought "theres gonna be hundreds of those". I guess not. Still it looks pretty good. Favourites are 254, 252, 158, 148 and 46. Looks like I'm gonna have to step up a notch if I want to compete with some of these drawings. Good job everypony though :)
ReplyDelete#265 here, yeah...
ReplyDeleteBut I haven't drawn anything for years, so it's a start, I guess.
Too bad about the animated one (#68), and the thumbnail conversion seems to screw up .png files with transparent areas, as least on the browsers I've checked this with. See mine, #208, and unfortunately #249, which is amazing. It seems to only get white backgrounds correct.
#49!
ReplyDeleteYay, Soarin'!
Also, much Derpy to be had today. And I think the ones of Applejack eating anything other than apples are my favorite ones. :P
#9 is awesome. I would pay to see this happen in the show.
ReplyDeleteMine didn't make it?
ReplyDelete*sniff* I fill out the form and everything ;_;
Another good batc. Loved the line work on 6, 9 was just too good and 249 made me weep at my lack of skill.
ReplyDeleteI'll warn you now: expect more pencil!
Yay number 65! Li'l Big Mac nomming an apple :3
ReplyDeleteGood job everypony!
162!
ReplyDeleteI feel like I'm getting better at drawing in these few days than I have in months lol, thanks for doing this Phoe and Seth.
221 here. Looks like rich-tea (113) had the same idea!
ReplyDelete239 is hilarious. Love the expression!
ReplyDeleteMine's 194. Wanted Applejack to say something more funny but the wheels in my head just weren't turning yesterday ;_;
I'm really impressed with how much the drawings have improved since Day 1. I couldn't enter this time around, I was too caught up in my studies. I was gonna draw a fruit eating pony, in it's literalest sense. A giant fruit that eats ponies. I thought it was clever.
ReplyDelete#105 here. Man, I am really regretting taking the lazy route here. Though the other thing I drew yesterday wasn't all that great either.
ReplyDeleteDraw a pony with wings, breaking the sound barrier... hm.
#249 today! And oh no, major thumbnail transparency derp D: It looked ok when I uploaded it...oh well, may have to start adding backgrounds lol
ReplyDeleteAnd great job guys, these are so awesome! <3
#147! One of...two Apple Inc. jokes? D=
ReplyDeleteLoving a lot of these, but #16 has me giggling and #112 I actually mistook for a sculpture at first glance. Very nice.
217 today.
ReplyDeleteWhat exactly were they farming those rocks for anyway?
~Buddy Vox
Ohmigosh Ohmigosh Ohmigosh Ohmigosh Ohmigosh I got a comment from Seth :DD!! "60) By FerretWithASpork (Now that is efficiency.)" This is the greatest day of my lyfe! :D
ReplyDeleteHi! #220/253 here. Sorry about the double post. I was trying to lose the wrong spelling of "Cimarron" so I wouldn't look derpy, (Not at all a bad thing, normally). Now that I posted it, I think that Rain's cheek is too rounded. Makes her look like she is overweight.
ReplyDeleteThere are some great contributions today! Interestingly enough, everypony that chose strawberries had some creative, funny ideas!
Loves:
#9 Oh, the horror! Oh, the family shame of it all! :)
#10 Luna so cute and happy with her juicy fruits of the dark.
#15 Rainbow Dash! You are so adorable! More so than usual, that is.
Doh, ran out of time. *flits away*
Tech Note: Today's page uploaded flawlessly and rather quickly on FF over a dialup connection. Thanks for the fix!
Answer to that last question, "What does twilight sparkle make?" Well, DUH! GLITTER EXPLOSIONS! *Pinkie Troll face*
ReplyDelete245 here. And I thought I was being clever with my pony-eating fruit.
ReplyDeleteLoved 249. Interesting take with great results!
ReplyDelete@FerretWithASpork
ReplyDeleteActually you got a comment from me. I had that all set up in the script before the power went all Nyeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrkerboom, necessitating Seth stepping in and saving the day for everypony (thanks, boss!). But hey, it's true - I think you had my favorite "catch up" pic of the bunch!
#66 this time around. Rushed my entry because I was busy studying, so I'm not all that happy with it.
ReplyDeleteAs always, so many lovely entries~
I really need to learn how to color. Nice and neat digital art would look so much better than my crude sketches.
ReplyDeleteI've decided to try a comic with all this, so #2 up there is the third panel of the overall comic and was actually for yesterday's "dress as Trixie" theme. I'll have today's "eating fruit" and tomorrow's "breaking the sound barrier" panels ready to submit later today.
ReplyDeleteMike
Hah hah. I think #18 is priceless.
ReplyDeleteThe drawing is simple, but it was the only one that really made me laugh.
Oh Mr. Magnet. You're a fruit allright, but just a different kind. =D
Hm, ho-hum, lots of ponies and fruits. Some of these are quite good. Wish I had had time to make one of my own for today, the effort I put into these takes a couple hours usually so --
ReplyDelete102: "Dedz to Khosan and AlterForm for their various guides :)"
TOTALLYWORTHIT.JPG
Although I did have an idea last night that no one seems to have done yet ... hopefully Phoe will let me bend the rules just a smidge for the sake of a joke.
@AlterForm
ReplyDeleteYou had me at "for the sake of a joke".
So does it have to be canon characters with wings or are OC's acceptable?
ReplyDeleteWow my pic was higher today! (74)
ReplyDeleteAlot of good pictures here, great job everypony! Keep up the great work and I'll promises to do the same
@Phoe Great to have you back, sorry to hear you had a power outage, but your back now :D
Also what if my favorite pony has wings? Should I move down my line of favorites?
@mangaturtle
ReplyDeleteOCs are acceptable, always have been acceptable, and always will be acceptable. Have fun and be creative!
@Taco Bandit
If your pony already has wings, add more wings! =D
@Phoe
ReplyDeleteMore wings? haha Alright this should be fun XD
@Kits
ReplyDeleteLooks like you're in there to me.. #241
Lots and lots of double posts around here.
ReplyDelete#111 friend here
Yay,
ReplyDeleteMine was added in afterall!!1 :D
@Anon
ReplyDeleteI could swear that wasn't there when I left for work... Maybe my ctrl+f is broken? Thanks for finding it!
@Dangereaux
ReplyDeleteThe thumbnails were all converted to moderate/low-quality jpg's to make them as small as possible, so the animation disappeared. Best solution for now is to email animations to Phoe. Sorry about that.
@GameBuddy
ReplyDeleteGrowing gems! At least, that seems to be the prevailing fan theory.
I was #52 today, had to admit I burst out laughing when I saw Cybie (#38) had almost exactly the same idea.
@FiMath
ReplyDeleteI convert the thumbnails to jpg to space space, but jpg doesn't allow an alpha channel. My guess is that it simply deleted the alpha values, so any alpha with color ends up showing as a solid color rather than blending to white. I'll see if the conversion tool I'm using allows me to flatten images in a smarter way or perhaps allows me to add a white layer to merge with first.
Something weird also happened with #246, which was already a jpg, I will have to investigate.
Now what does two dollars whole banana mean?
ReplyDelete177, and dammit I forgot Derpy's wings.
ReplyDeleteJust submitted mine. Didn't add more wings, though...
ReplyDelete41 is mine. Somehow derpy looks angry :/
ReplyDeleteI submitted mine a few seconds ago, I like that the uploader now gives more detailed information about the submission if it successed! It just makes me feel safer.. ;)
Thanks Calamari and Nido Media. :)
ReplyDeleteyou not only helped out Periphery, but me too.
My real drawing is (#228) and while I like how it turned out I still wish I knew how these sketches were made into lineart. Not to mention how the coloring looks so good.
How do you guys draw so well on a computer?
ReplyDeleteI'm an utter and total noob when it comes to drawing and such, perhaps it's a good idea to add a complete beginner's guide for people who don't know how to properly draw on a computer / how to properly draw...
Sincirely, a pretty hopeless art brony.
@PP
ReplyDeleteI don't know If I should be telling you this since I'm that great myself(see pic 74) but what I do is trace over the sketch I drew with tracing paper and pens(pigma pens) then scan it, color it and the line on photoshop(you can most likely do that on gimp, which is free)
This is just how I do it since I'm not good with a tablet. But most digital artist use a tablet. Don't worry you'll get better. Stay strong Brony
@Taco Banditnot that great myself*
ReplyDeleteMan I miss the easiest mistakes *facehoof*
@Taco Bandit
ReplyDeletepic 74 is awesome!, i'll keep your advice in mind.
@Taco Bandit
ReplyDeleteCould you tell me exactly which pens and paper you use?
I really don't know a thing about it so i'm pretty clueless, i'm not even sure if i know exactly what you mean...
Also i wonder if you have some tips for the actual drawing itself, i'm not good at it but i really hope to learn...

I believe I've resolved the transparency / alpha channel issues. Submit (non-animated) gif's and png's with confidence :)
ReplyDeleteman after seein' the saucier pics, i wish i would've submitted something.
ReplyDeleteI've been making pencil sketches on paper (relatively fast, takes less than an hour, even including going through episodes looking for the right pose to copy), then I trace the sketch using my tablet. That step totally sucks. I get a wobbly scrawl in "Painter Essentials" that looks like something drawn by the show's initial demographic. So chuck that, I trace into ZeFrank's Scribbler interface where size, not wobbles, matters. At least that way I get something interesting.
ReplyDeleteSketched pony -- check!
Coloured pony -- check!
Submitted pony -- check!
Got practice with tablet -- er, check?
Decided to simply mimic other people's work that i like for the moment, from that base i'll work forward.
ReplyDeleteI've already drawn Fluttershy-ish and Applejack went pretty well too, then again mimicing is a lot easier then thinking something up and then drawing from the mind but it's a start (can't post it thought, haven't got a scanner available right now).
Anyhoo, thanks for the tips Taco Bandit!
YAY!
ReplyDelete163 :D
although im not sure what you meant by "Which one? Braeburn/Rainbow Dash? I don't think it's taking off"
it's meant to be barbosa from pirates of the caribbean
i based it on the last scene of dead mans chest
Well crap. I just spent ages drawing Fluttershy to submit to day 5, and only now I read "breaking the sound barrier" -_-
ReplyDeleteIt's like when teachers at school tell you "read the whole question before you answer", and I just failed.
Oh well, practice is still practice.
I like Fluttershy & the dragon fruit!
ReplyDelete@frith
ReplyDeleteI tried to make this using Halo which is why everything is metal and terrible looking.
@PP
ReplyDeleteSorry for the late response but if your still interested I just use regular store bought tracing paper, For sketches I just use art sketching paper(you can find anywhere, if not a local art store) and for pens I use these http://www.amazon.com/Sakura-Pigma-Sensei-Manga-Drawing/dp/B001463RWW/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1306896542&sr=8-6
To help you with your sketches
Reference pictures is a big help.
#74 is my 4th time drawing a full pony so Reference helps a lot. Also the tutorial that this site provides help too. Only one tutorial helped me the rest I just picked up. So good luck and no problem. Glad to be of some help :3
I give up. Drawing ponies is too hard. ):
ReplyDeleteForever? just "Forever"? you must mean....FORRRRRRREVVVVVERRRRRRRRRRRR!
ReplyDelete@jaayro
ReplyDeleteDon't give up Brony! You can do it if you put your mind to it! I believe in you :D
@Anonymous
ReplyDelete186 is not terrible! It's very cool looking. I said it was one of my favorites, and I did not choose many. We are our own worst critics, eh? ^_^
@jaayro
ReplyDeleteC'mon, Jaayro, you can do it! A big circle over one end of a jelly bean, supported on elephant legs. Or print out what you like and trace! Tracing is great for getting all the pieces in the right places and sizes, and it gets you comfortable with drawing circles and angles. Go for it! Trace!
