• Newbie Artist Training Grounds XIV: Day 30

     


    Well, here we are everyone, the final day of the NATG for this year. It's crazy to think that another one has come and gone but as always it has been a lot of great fun! It's been lovely seeing familiar faces as well as new folks joining even as we approach our 15th year doing the NATG here on Equestria Daily. It has been a long road to get here, but now there is only one hurdle left before we can wrap everything up.

    For our Makeup Day, we managed to bring in 51 ponies which brings us up to 1718 ponies in total for the event so far. Just one more day to get that total pushed up everyone! Keep up the good work!

    Now for all of you who have kept tabs on the NATG over the years, the final day is one of celebration! Even if you only did one prompt you should feel proud just for trying and for those of you who pushed on through every prompt over the past month I am proud of you for what your willpower has managed to accomplish. We would not have all of these pony images generated by this event year after year without you all. And so, in celebration of what you all have accomplished, I'd like you to Draw a pony graduating / Draw a pony reaching the end of the line.

    As always you can find the submitter here. Final deadline is extended past the 4th for those of you who are busy with the holidays. Submitter closes on the 6th of July and a final gallery will go up the next day!

    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.

    Check on after the break for today's gallery!

    Got to admit, if I couldn't be a pony, a griffon isn't too bad of an alternative. What would you be if you had a choice?

    Evening my friends, hoping you all had a good evening. Ready to wind down and relax?
