Description
OTP.So I spent most of today on this. Something about it was bugging me during the process, but I couldn't figure out what, so I just ignored the feeling and kept going. I'd juuust finished and exported the file when I looked at it and went, "Oh wait. Dash has WINGS."
Yep, I had me two earth ponies.
So after making a new window by breaking the wall open with my head, I threw a wing-like appendage on there all slapdash (no pun intended). I've been staring at this for so long I can't even tell whether that wing is okay or too wonky for words.
I'ma upload it anyways.

You can suggest whatever you like.
Personally, I feel that the color contrast between ponies and background is sharp enough to mitigate the difference in texture/detail, although I do see your point and it is a fair one.
I don't plan on editing this piece, but if hypothetically I did, what specifically would you like to see? "Detail" is an awfully broad term, after all.

For starters, see how much detail you've put into the grass itself? I think the mains and tail should share in that quality. Also I wounder if the pelts of the ponies could use some texture. Last and I just noticed this. the lighting on the ponies and grass are off. I noticed that the grass is very bright in the fore ground making the light seem as though it is from behind the viewer. On the ponies, they are lit up from the other side.
Still though. Great work. It made it into my wow folder!

The art is so good, I could've sworn it was something off of G-mod.

Garry's Mod. It's a program that uses Source Engine (from Team Fortress 2, Half Life 2, Left 4 Dead, etc.) to let you pose scenes using downloadable models as well as items from said Source Engine games. Lately people have been using MLP Models made for it to make all sorts of scenes. Me included.
This one shows all the current MLP Models available for GMod.

And here's an AppleDash scene. [link]

Congratulations, my good man, for getting on Equestria Daily's drawfriend!
Also, this is just phenomenal. I thought it was done in a 3d rendering program like Gmod or something along those lines. The coloring and shading for the grass, background foliage, and the ponies themselves give a great 3d look.
In short terms: It's awesome.

MohawkMax In reply to MrSpaceCat [2011-09-05 04:46:35 +0000 UTC]
Well, most of the background was done with various foliage-type brushes, and most of what I did there just involved trying to pick good colors and place them well. So that wasn't all me.
And thanks.
