Description Hey, guys! Still practice doodling here but now I'm trying to be more progressive with my doodles.

As of now, I'm trying to settle on a wing design which I'll be using for every drawing I do with pegasi from here on in. You see, I've been wanting to have some coherency in my drawings for a while now so that people will recognize my drawings when they see my art elsewhere. This helps me build some sort of reputation.

Then again, what I'm doing right now helps exercise my creativity too because I'm trying something new all the time. I get to learn more about what I draw if I draw it differently all the time which is beneficial to me if I want to progress as an artist.

So as you can see, I'm kind of in a slump here. Should I stick to one style or should I just do what I'm doing now and change around my art style every now and again? Help me decide, dA!

By the way, if you're curious, the wing designs I have up there are designs I've used in past drawings I've uploaded here:

1. The first wing design I've ever used (Never Leave Friends Hangin' )
2. My attempt at the show's wing design and the design I've used the most (first used in Pet a Pony )
3. My attempt at Lauren Faust's original wing design (My Little Concepts )
4. Something close to Celestia's wing design (That's How She Rolls )
5. My half-assed wing simplification and the only design missing the covert feathers (BEAR-hoofed )
6. A nice sleek wing design I made up for the bookmark (The Egghead's Little Helper )
7. This one employed minor coverts along with the major coverts I always have but I decided that this looked kind of ugly (Season's Greetings, Lauren Faust )
8. I don't know where I came up with this design but I thought it looked kind of cool despite it missing some feathers around the shoulder area (Pop Culture Equines )
9. Technically, this design didn't have any coverts but I decided to add some because the design looked rather bland without any (Rainbowstyle )
10. My Ponyball wing design, which is basically design number eight with a visible tendon and ramped up further (first used in Ponyball - Page 2 )
11. Not used in any of my digital drawings so far, but I've been using it lately for some traditional drawings.

So, which is your favorite? Do you like a combination of any of them? Should I ignore them and make up some more wing designs for future drawings?

You decide, dA! Once I'm satisfied with an answer, I'll put this image in my Scraps folder and start pumping out the winged goods.

The top row looks best for ponies to me, if you could do a hybrid of all three I think it would look really good.
