My Little Pony (Stark)

[vejiicakes]

So this semester, a bunch of the other animation/illustration peeps and I took an intro Flash class, which turned out to be.. very very introductory (though that being said, none of us likes/knows how to draw in Flash). Anyway, the newest exercise involved custom mouse cursors, with relevance to the original characters/world we're supposed to be

the cuteness! the cuteness!

but, but he is her Faithful Friend, and Boon Companion (and way too adorable to leave at home!!!) You have succeeded at causing babytalk at 2 a.m., if that was your goal. <3
(probably, he'd be an excellent mini-butler. yep.^^)

Re: the cuteness! the cuteness!

[vejiicakes]

HAHAHA thank you! And yep, that's why she brings him along; he is her Lovely Item XD

Excellent idea--a lady, even an armor-bustled, jet-powered, metal gauntleted superhero lady, still needs someone to cart around her tea set! ^_^

Steampunk era Pony Stark! :D I'm sure he's got some little missile launchers tucked in there somewhere's...

EVERYBODY DOES

DID YOU START YET WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE ISN'T IT SO CHARMING AND UNEXPECTEDLY DELIGHTFUL???? 8D

PONY STARK YES.

Is his cutie mark an arc reactor? :D

[vejiicakes]

If I were doing this more as a fan project than a class assignment, I'd be SO TORN between giving him a cutie mark arc reactor, or like.. a bottle of scotch. Boozy Pony. Or a wad of cash. (He really should have a legit arc reactor on his actual pony suit...)

Ha-ha, with the talk of Flash at the beginning, I can pretty much imagine this pony during a first flight situation, rolling and tumbling in the air. Very fun, and it's great seeing bits of artwork from you! I love the random ideas you have like this.

[vejiicakes]

If I have the time and random impulse to take this further (than the, you know, bare minimum required in this non-Anim/Illust department class) that would be very doable! Although the inevitable crashing would involve more nested drawings which I hate doing...

LOL yeah, I don't even.. remember the last time I put art on this journal.. *looks sad* I USED TO HAVE SO MUCH ENERGY FOR RANDOM FAN STUFF >____

Phft, you're talking to the person who hasn't updated with ficcage since August of last year. When you're busy, you're simply busy. And I think you have the double whammy in that you're working hard on art, so the last thing you probably want to do after a long week of artwork is to do even more. Nah, it's perfectly reasonable.

And since I'm bad at reading Twitter and catching everything, where are you with everything these days? Aren't you close to finishing school? Do you have plans for after that? Or am I completely confused with your progress and you still have the rest of the year? I know we've talked about it before, but for the life of me, I can't remember the details. ^^;

[vejiicakes]

My position isn't helped by the fact that some of my other classmates, who have to work just as hard, seem to have no problem doing fun fanstuff >_> (One in particular is joining me at Fanime for the Artist Alley, and she's been working like mad creating stuff to sell there and I'm like.. haven't had new stuff to sell at a con in years XD)

I'm planning on graduating with a BFA, and our department is set up so that you pretty much take and re-take classes over and over until you're ready to be in the BFA program, which covers two semesters, starting in the Fall. It's also where you start creating stuff to include in your professional portfolio, getting more engaged with industry recruiting, etc. Upon completion of the program, you graduate.

Aaaand I didn't want to start it last Fall because I felt so unready (hadn't taken any real 3D animation classes yet, for one..) so right now I'm just kind of waiting for next Fall semester, and trying to improve my animation 'cause I really don't want to be caught with my pants down next
