• Newbie Artist Training Grounds XIV: Day 7

     


    Who knew that apples were this complex? No wonder AJ has so little competition in Ponyville, eh?

    Hello everyone once more to another day of the NATG! We had a number of ponies fetching pearls, sharing wisdom, tangling with ropes and learning new skills, all representing just how creative you all are when it comes to these prompts. As always I look forward to each day's bounty of images with excitement to see just what you all have come up with for the day!

    Speaking of bounty, you all managed to bring in 59 ponies today which now brings us up to 379 ponies in total. Slowly we keep inching towards the 1000 mark! Keep it up, everyone!

    With the makeup day coming ever closer and the great job you all have done with the prompts so far, it's time for a day for another one of our standard prompt themes we've used for years but given a twist to each and every year. Now that I'm confident you can finish one pony in a day, it's time for a prompt that gives you a chance to draw two and what better theme than love in a fandom that has been shipping ponies for 14 years now? That's right, today I want you to Draw a pony with their better half / Draw a pony finding someone special!

    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 Size is 4MB!

    Animations do not animate when sent through the compiler! Include some text with your submitted animation so people can 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.

    It's a shame that we didn't get as much Zecora in the show as we did. She really was a cool character.

    Morning everyone, hope the day is already treating you well. Ready to get it started?
