thank you for the fave! /)^3^(\ i love your guide on how to make kamina glasses. i actually liked it to a friend who has been wanting to get/make a pair for ages. Gurren Lagann is second best show ever to be on television . . . first is Friendship is magic.

thank you ^ ^ . warhammer 40k and ponies are two things I am extremely passionate about. so I thought combining the two was the only logical course of action lol .the models I have now are actually the precursor to an entire pony themed 40k army. once i get the main 6 finished i will be figuring out exactly what it is i want form the army. though i think it will wind up becoming an apocalypse army. just so i can flood the table top with multicolored marines. lol.

I just watched a literal fuckton of the show while drawing and sketching it. When i saw an asset i liked i paused and sketched it to get the basic shape. I just watched my friend vector the night before so I could understand the thickness of the lines and how all that jazz worked. And a few things like thebfront two hooves are acvtually the same hoof copied. I also was videoscreen sharing with a friend and he's like super brony and helpedc out telling me what do do what what i did wrong alot. I didnt expect it to be this good when i was done. I saved it, zoomed out and was like O_O "what have i done!?!". I'm not 100% sure I can do this good again. At least not fo a while.

Lol, I know what you mean. It certainly is a very good piece of art. how did you do the lines coming to points? did you just erase the end to a point?

Oh yeah a thing I forgot to mention was that I used Flash. I just used the line tool to make the outlines of the lines and then I fill in what I did like this: [link]
If you wanna use photoshop, do what Equestria-Prevails does. It looks like he draws the lines (maybe the pen tool) and then uses the pen tool (+eraser or something) again to get the ends to look all pointy and thin. [link]

and if it doesn't make sense I do a livestream occasionally. Next week I'm either attempting to draw the Flim Flam brothers or Scootaloo. It could go terribly wrong but then you can see the process.
