ASK SKYROCKET

Hi I'm Skyrocket and I'm a Pegasus pony. I live in Endoras Peak and I work as guardmare. I'm tomboyish in nature as well. Oh, and I don't like to compete!

Moving on

So I think it’s safe to say, that this blog isn’t really going anywhere. I had some plans for this blog, but due to how my life is going and other plans that I’m trying to work out I simply don’t have the time to update this blog anymore. 

Not to say that I’m quitting on art completely! I’m not abandoning Skyrocket, more of merging her to my other blog @asksweepslick. I won’t be deleting this blog, but I doubt that I’ll be updating it in the future. 

Thanks for sticking with my art and please be sure to follow me in my other blog!

Who remembers this OC? Bit of a redesign as well.

It’s Skyrocket! I tried to shade her a bit differently, but wasn’t sure how it really turned out…

((Not the update we wanted, but... not sure if we needed?))

((Oh hi everyone! I know I haven’t updated this blog like forever and hopefully no one has thought that I’m dead! I’ve been mostly working with my other blog @asksweepslick. Anyways it’s been a bit sad, since I’ve left Skyrocket a bit in the dust, but I’m planing to bring her back! Just not in here and with a bit of a twist as well. When this will happen, I don’t know, but I hope I have the time and patience to do it! Stay tuned!))

((EDIT: Forgot some of the effects!))

((I made some small adjustments for the suit. Skyrocket isn’t really part of the royal guards in her city, but more of a task force/police. And no, there ain’t guns and such))

A portrait of my first proper OC Skyrocket. Skyrocket has probably gone through the most changes of my OC’s. I wanted her to look unique from the rest and to be honest her first design looked good, but it was a bit too hard to draw and it didn’t fit to “the name of Skyrocket”. Before giving a name I wanted to make her a pegasus, since I really liked that race (Mostly because of Rainbow Dash). Fun fact: I didn’t come up with the name Skyrocket. I am TERRIBLE at naming stuff, so I asked one forum to name her and one of the suggestions was Skyrocket. One of the things that I feared with the name was that it felt like that it implied that she was going to be super fast flyer (Even faster than Rainbow Dash) and I didn’t want that. When I started ANSWERSKYROCKET I stated first that she lived in Cloudsdale, and then there flooded questions, like “Let’s race”. I never really replied to those questions and I only mentioned in the blog info that Skyrocket didn’t like to compete. Much later when I tried to reboot my blog, I swapped Skyrockets living location to fictitious place called Endoras Peak to prevent breaking any canon related stuff! 

While I enjoyed a lot of ANSWERSKYROCKET blog, my main issue with her was that I never planed any personalities for her so I had to answer on the fly. The blog was at first really generic. Skyrocket felt like an experiment rather then a fully developed character. Later she did get some personalities that were recognizable. Her job is guardmare, but isn’t quite like royal guard (An other reason to move her to an other location, since the original series didn’t have such things) and mostly of that she became a bit more tougher and independent. 

Even though I have concentrated more on Sweep Slick, I didn’t want to ditch Skyrocket completely. I had over +3300 followers on it and I have about +800 followers on Sweep Slick and it doesn’t matter where I post an update they get the exact same amount of notes. I like Skyrocket a lot, but I’m the cause of her failure and hopefully she’ll do better in the Sweep Slick universe.

((What started as Tribalrocket, turned to be as Ink Spark. She might not be my most likable OC, but in design she is. I wanted to draw her again and while not much has been changed, I decided to change the hue of the fur since looking at the gray color it seemed pretty dull and considering how many gray OC’s were already out there, so I changed it. Also I moved the earrings to the right spot. The one above was done in 2013.))

[asksweepslick]

I know her a bit too well…!!

((You came to the wrong neighborhood motherfricker!))

[answerskyrocket]

And I thought Ink Spark was trouble...
