Day 10: Pinkie decides on a frosting flavor

Description

Pinkie is licking frosting off a surface to decide upon which to put on her cupcakes. I don't know, I just wanted to draw Pinkie again.

I tried coloring with my limited supply of color pencils. Yeah, not doing that again. It took forever to even get the colors remotely close to what they are. Plus colored pencils are a bitch to blend.

I tried to go with the whole body going into the background (aka 3D positioning) but I'm not sure I did it right. When I tried to copy the vector I used for a reference pic, it didn't quite look right, so I took a few liberties. I think it turned out decent, nothing super fantastic, but not horrible.

Pinkie's tail needs to be a bit more poofy, and her eyes are a bit weird (damn you 3/4 angle!). The ear looks a bit small as well, or maybe placed a bit too far forward on the head. The front right (from my pov) hoof is kind of weird looking, as is the other hoof, but I could use a good part of Pinkie's hair to hide most of that one.

Overall, not as good as Amaterasu pony, but I'm getting better!

Yeah, you really can't blend colored pencils all that well...they just smear all over the place. Plus, you can't really erase them either. They work ok as long as you sketch everything in regular pencil first, then use the colored pencils to do the fills.

Your positioning is pretty good as far as I can tell - nothing looks 'off' to me about it (or at least I didn't notice anything).

Overall, a good effort!
