#wind tracer

[worlds-beyond-the-wormhole]

Since it's still Pride Month, I wanted to draw something featuring my ponysona, Wind Tracer. (Note: This is a rare instance of me drawing traditional art for this blog. Most of the art for this blog will be digital.)

Base used: Pride Strut base by KittieBases (DeviantArt)

Has Blanky ever been scared of someone or something, instead of scaring someone?

Shutter Ghost: He does get nervous around washing machines, but we're working on it.

I practiced some lineless art featuring @ignus108's Wind Tracer!

I also included some step by step parts just for fun below the cut :D

I started with a sketch layer and made sure to leave room for the word bubble! (Forgot to picture it, but it's on a separate layer.)

Sometimes I do the ponies first, but today I tried background first to get a feel for what kind of colors might blend well for shadows and highlights.

Here's where I'd normally draw the lines! But since I'm practicing lineless today, I added in the flat colors. I also made sure each character was on a separate layer!

I added the most important shading next! Since there are no lines, I used shadows to define noses, horn lines, and where some of the deepest shadows might end up.

Next I put in the background shadows and a few deeper shadows as well!

Added in the hair shadows and highlights!

Finally, I added some bright sunlight, turned Blanky clear, and messed with the colors a bit. Ta-daa!

"Good answer!

.... much better than 'Ponies knew Rainbow Power was a title, thought 'Rainbow Feather' was a shortening of my title and my name, started speculating what my second name was, misheard heard 'Rainbow Power Rainbow Feather, daughter of Dash and Gilda,' and thought it was Feather Dash!.... or twice even Feather Gilda, but yea, at this point it's stuck and I'm just running with it!"
