do you have any tips on drawing a ponysona? Also your ponysona looks so adorable I can't-
ohh thank you!!!!
hm, tips. if this is just about drawing a ponysona, drawing other ponies is very helpful!! as an avid fluttershy fan, i've drawn her a lot since i was young, so at this point in my life i know how to draw ponies pretty well.
but for design? there are a lot of things to consider! for instance, what species do you want them to be? unicorn, pegasus, earth pony, even alicorn? something a bit more out there, like a flutter pony, sea pony, kirin, or breezie? or maybe something that isn't a pony at all, like a zebra, donkey, dragon, or griffin? there are the aesthetics of the species to keep in mind, as well as other things like abilities. for example, over the years my ponysonas have always had wings, because i've always wanted to fly! in the past my ponysona has been a pegasus, but now she is a flutter pony because 1. that adds a butterfly theme to the character and 2. i loved the flutter pony characters in the mlp g3 movies a lot!! try to find something that fits you and what you'd want to be able to do if you lived in equestria.
aside from that, the most important things are the cutie mark (if applicable) and colors! if your ponysona isn't a pony, you don't have to worry about a cutie mark; if they are one, you can use the cutie mark to say a lot about them - heck, you can say a lot with a lack of a cutie mark too! rosy cheeks has a blushing smiley face cutie mark, which not only represents their bashfulness and their desire to make people happy, but also incorporates a major part of my personal iconography (if you've been on my blog for any length of time, you should know i love smiley faces and representing myself with them)! cutie marks can contain a lot of information: the character's talents, goals, personality, aesthetic, colors... experiment! try to find something to represent you - or don't!
if you have a handful of favorite colors that work well together, it's nice to have them on the same sona! it's also a fun idea to try and incorporate some of your colors onto your ponysona: i have golden hair and green eyes, so i gave them to rosy cheeks! this isn't necessary of course, and you should always feel free to make your ponysona look however you want, but i find it nice to incorporate some real aspects of me in the sonas i make. you can also use colors to reflect your ponysona's personality in a similar way to how their cutie mark can: for example, fluttershy has pastel colors to represent her shy demeanor, while pinkie pie is bright and saturated, to reflect her energetic personality. rosy cheeks' colors work in a similar way to fluttershy's, but with the colors inverted, such that she almost looks like stereotypical depictions of cherubs (with pale pink skin and curly golden hair)! this was on purpose, and also ties into inspiration from other characters. rosy cheeks' design was inspired by fluttershy's, as i've just mentioned, but also pipp petals' concept art design, rosy maple moths, and to a very small extent cherubs and cozy glow. i personally have connections to all of these things, so incorporating them all into my ponysona is a nice way to represent that!
i hope this could help!! golly, it's a lot of fun talking about pony designs... :)

the greens, as of right now "work" because they're all messily swimming in this cesspool of fucked up family dynamics. The kids each have their own hangups and gimmicks.
With this in mind, They gotta make daeron different enough from his siblings so that he's not just blending into the background and they also need to make him rounded enough so that the audience can see how he "fits" in to their dynamic
personally i wouldn't mind seeing unhinged, delusional, gay/bi, religious Daeron for this reason. it sets him apart so that he can stand as his own character and it's a fun characterization that i could easily see fitting into the green family.

If you're still looking for requests... I know tomorrow is Nov 1st, so what about Gris & Ingo the day after a late fun Halloween or all dressed up for fall time? :3c
(i'm like one day late for this but its fiiinnnneeeeeee <3)
A halloween movie marathon sounds awesome right, but waking up the next day and getting all the on-sale candy sounds even better
What's fall without getting some coffee, dressing warmly, and going to go buy all the discount candy and decorations!
(using my new barista experience here)
Gris doesn't like pumpkin spice but would kill for anything matcha flavored. Also, they need that caffeine fix so extra blonde shots it is
Ingo, I would pin for loving non-dairy milk better than regular and he's a pumpkin spice lover
Gris, being from Alola, is freezing by the beginning of October so they were sweaters on top of sweaters, gloves, and scarves, Gris is an ice cube during fall and winter. Ingo's used to Nimbasa City's cold season so just a warm-ish hat and a light sweater will do him just fine

hello, just a quick reminder that submissions close tomorrow (may 6), so if you have a ship that fits our guidelines and haven't sent it in yet, make sure you do that before then!
mod b (hi!) cleared out any ineligible submissions yesterday and compiled some of their favorite free space messages (plus one or two propaganda bits that were PARTICULARLY funny), so the rest of this post is composed of those! you guys are hilarious tbh
They're bi4bi and t4t just trust me

IDK IF THESE MAKE SENSE, IM RUNNING ON PURE SPITE FOR MY ASSIGNMENTS

I'm insane
I'm still insane
[mod note: separate entries, presumably from the same submitter]
it would be extremely funny to, when this tournament is over, just start the tournament again, but in the guidelines add the previous winner to the blacklisted ships. and just keep doing that until u get sick of it, to get a ranking going /j
Sobs and wails. Cries. Claws at the floor. Ueuegehheieueuegeheueueuueurueueue
Prepare for more I have so many fuckin ships that I forged with my own two hands like a deranged scientist
I love mlms (both the pyramid scheme and gay kind)
Look man, old man yaoi I don’t actually have much else to say here
Do you think Itaru’s ever tried to commission a Vtuber model based on Eito
