Gilda tapped the edge of her knife on the bottom of her bill. Behind her was a large, open cardboard box that had been sent to the griffin by Ponyville's finest fashionista.

Baron's Art Tips. Don't mentally view an image from just one angle, consider your possibilities. With any picture there's almost more than one viewpoint that you can decide to go with.

The next 6 hours were a rollercoaster of emotions for Free n' Clear's in my Equestria dreamscape. What had started as a simple task of delivering some cookies to a pony she knew, admittedly with a bit of breaking and entering, had turned into a surreal adventure. 2022-01-31 21:58:56 +0000 UTC View Post
Often the mark of a true professional is not how well they perform when everything goes right, but how well they perform when everything goes wrong. Coco Pommel illustrated that fact a while ago in my Royal Equestria Security Force, RESF, dreamscape.

Still levitating Free n' Clear along with the basket of cookies the filly had brought with her; Celestia stepped back into the bungalow, and then quietly closed the front door in my Equestria dreamscape. Through all of this the filly remained motionless and silent. Upon securing the door the princess looked over at the unexpected guest. 2022-01-27 23:56:51 +0000 UTC View Post
I've got another Star Wars themed piece coming up. It's an anthro piece so I needed to come up with some stormtrooper armor for the piece. The patron has given me some wide latitude in the design, but I need to know where I'll be going with the piece. So I did these design sketches this afternoon.
Baron's Art Tips. Even if you are absolutely certain that the image in your head is the one you're going to use for a finished piece of art, it never hurts to consider other possible options.

A moment from my Anthro MLP dreamscape. Celestia's golden light spilled into the bedroom, heralding the arrival of another day. Discord stirred as he felt his wife awaking from her evening slumber. As was fairly typical Fluttershy was draped across the long torso of the draconequus.

It was a beautiful Sunday morning in my Equestria dreamscape. Free n' Clear's smiled as she clenched the handle of a cloth basket between her teeth and trotted to her destination.

A tingling sensation in Celestia's horn roused the princess from her slumber in my Equestria dreamscape.
