Description

Did a portraits for a few people on a Discord server as part of the pony-aday thing I was doing. Never posted them here, figured I might as well since I’ve long gave up on that little project. I haven’t given up on drawing, though. My tablet’s screwed up at the moment, and moreover, I just can’t motivate myself to get anything done. I’ll get back to drawing things soon enough, I have something half finished from right before my tablet broke, I still owe someone a portrait (you know exactly who you are, please don’t think I forgot ;;), and I have a few ideas running around in my head. Just no more daily things.
 
Boring bullshit ahead as to why I stopped posting.
 
Why did I give up on my little challenge? For starters, I had fallen more than 15 or so days behind, hence why I was doing OC portraits. I didn’t have to come up with anything for the drawing, just follow a style I both easy and enjoyable for me to do. Even so, the quantity of the drawing I had to make up was too much to do just OCs, and they fell on dates like April 1st. Never got an idea for April Fools, and I wanted to post them in order here, so I kinda just screwed myself lol
 
Second, two people never sent me a character to draw, which ties into the whole April 1st thing. Even if I did get to those dates, I would have to keep push these two further and further down the year, not knowing if I’d even get anything from them (and, well, even after reminders, I never did). So instead of working on other drawings, I just sat on my hands and did absolutely nothing, pissing myself off more and more with each day that I fell further behind.
 
And I couldn’t just pick it up again at a current date and just skip those days. My goal was to draw some pony related picture of some sort, in some medium, every day for the entirety of 2018. After falling behind to a point where I’d either burn myself out on drawing or having to skip about a month, I just dropped it. I couldn’t pick it back up again without having felt like I had failed. So I didn’t.
