Hello PonyGAF! (And to those of you lurking this thread. Hi!)
You know what time it is? No, not Twilight Time. Not Adventure Time either. It's time for... another PonyGAF open drawing challenge!
The challenge:
Draw 25 different ponies in 25 unique poses!
Twelve of these ponies are decided in advance. They are the Mane 6, the princesses, and the Cutie Mark Crusaders.
Those are:
- Twilight Sparkle
- Rainbow Dash
- Pinkie Pie
- Rarity
- Applejack
- Fluttershy
- Celestia
- Luna
- Cadance
- Apple Bloom
- Scootaloo
- Sweetie Belle
For the rest, you're free to pick whoever you want, as long as they're a pony. Canon ponies preferred, but if you want to toss in an OC, like, say, our own Belle Eve, then that's fine, too. Alter-egos count as a different pony, if they have a different design. For example, you can have both Luna and Nightmare Moon, if you wish.
There is
no deadline for this,
nor any requirements for skill level. All we really want, is to see people draw ponies. Some of us already know how to, but that's not a requirement here. If you want tips on how to draw them, feel free to ask in this tread.
If you do enter this challenge, feel free to announce it here, or just ambush us with 25 posed ponies. Either is fine.
Do I have to be good at drawing to join?
Nope. That's actually the point here. By having to draw multiple ponies, you will learn, rather fast, even, how to draw ponies that look nice and how to pose them.
Does it have to be 25?
Not really, but it's a good standard to have to think about many poses. You only get one "standing around" for free, you have to think of 24 more.
What kind of quality is expected?
This is a sketching challenge. Ponies only need to be sketched, and possibly inked. Colors and shading isn't needed. You can do it if you want to, but remember it's 25 ponies. It will take a long time.
Will there be a winner?
Nope. It's an open challenge. The point here is to learn by doing as a group.
How do I show it?
Pick an image host of your choice and post it here in the thread. If you are on deviantArt, you can also submit it to the #PonyGAF group there.
Any image format required?
No, but it'd be nice to have all 25 in one image. So consider image size when drawing. A suggestion could be a 5x5 grid of no more than 300px*300px squares per pony. That's still a 1500px*1500px image.
Now, then, grab your pencils (or relevant drawing tool), as it's PonyGAF drawing challenge time!
