• Newbie Artist Training Grounds XIII: Day 4

     

    Source - Chira

    With ponies charged and gear ready, we exit the starting phases of the NATG as we all get settled into our routines and drawing habits. More new faces keep appearing and what I have seen so far has continued to impress me each day so I'm hoping that enthusiasm can continue as we start to get into prompts that can require more effort to pull off. Needless to say, I'm excited to see what our participants can come up with!

    For today we managed to bring in a lovely 81 ponies which now brings us up to 269 ponies in total.

    If you've been keeping track of the NATG over the years, you might recognize that the first three prompts are pretty much the same with slight twists. There is a reason for this, and it mainly has to do with allowing new artists to get used to finishing prompts that for the most part just require the drawing of a single pony without a background if they choose. It's even helpful for veterans so they can do something simple if they wish so they can get used to the 24-hour timeframe for the prompts. Now that we enter the 4th day, it's time to enter spice things up a little bit as for today I would like our artists to Draw a pony with a secret mission / Draw a pony being sly as a fox.  

    As always you can find the submitter here.

    For our mobile friends trying to upload, try this:
    Once you have the image uploaded to Twitter, DeviantArt, or wherever try this: Touch and hold the image. Depending on what browser you’re using, select the image URL by tapping the links below: Chrome: Copy link address Safari: Copy

    Use that URL in the compiler for your image. Hopefully that works!

    Max Image Resolution is 2000x2000! Resize your pictures to make sure they are the appropriate size, any image software should be able to help you.

    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 for the old prompt is up a few hours even after this post goes up with the new prompt so feel free to submit your submission to the previous day's 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.

  • Fanfiction (Scouted): Glimmer of Affection

    [Comedy][Shipping]


    Author:FanOfMostEverything


    Description:Most ponies seem to love like the sun, a single spot of intense, blazing passion. Starlight Glimmer is different. Her love feels like planets in the night sky. So many scattered lights, so far out of reach, and so hard to tell from the fixed stars.

    Fortunately, she has a teacher who's very good at astronomy.
