HAPPY BIRTHDAY RAT
(I tried)
Rat:
Hahaha, I love it. <3 Thanks MSCA :D
It’s anal, yes!
Interesting question, and I gladly talk about stuff like that and give advice or anything, if you ask something like that non-anon I’ll answer privately and don’t have to spam my followers dashboard with a wall of text, if you’re comfortable talking to me non-anon!
Answer after the cut for everyone who’s interested!
I hope there will be something like that, and I hope I’ll be part of it! Sounds like fun.
But yeah, most artpacks focus pretty much on females, so I think Saddle Up is a nice variation, because it’s not as if there aren’t a ton of great art packs about mares!
But yeah, somebody definitely should organize a teats artpack!
I experiment with animation every now and then, so I’m sure I’ll draw something animated sooner or later again! I’m not sure about interactive pieces, though. It sounds like a lot of fun, but also a lot of work. But I’ll see what I can do!
I’m not really the kinda guy who likes parties or big gatherings or anything, so I have no big plans. (Plus my wife is in charge for planning my birthday!)
Ideally we go out to eat somewhere nice and then to a movie or to go play minigolf or something like that. Simple things like that make my day. Sorry, I’m a boring person!
And I’m amazed that people on the internet remember my birthday!
Maybe making the list public will motivate me to work harder on them, so here we go:
I think that’s about it. And I’m trying to get half of it done by the end of the week!
yanari1992 replied to your post: Commission for a friend who’d like to …
I don’t suppose there will be a watersports-free edit since it’s a commission, eh?
I think it should be okay, even though it kinda loses the meaning of the picture, though! I asked the commissioner and will hopefully hear back soon.
But yeah, the last time I’ve drawn watersports someone made a very sloppy edit and posted it all over the place, please don’t do that! I prefer to edit the picture myself and not have a badly edited picture floating around. Thanks! And thank you for asking, too!
I do! I like a big variety of ships! And I think Rarijack is my favorite one right now. Which makes that Anon even more ridiculous.
But yeah, Appledash is close to my heart. I really like it and it was my first ship and kinda the reason why I became a part of this fandom.
I think people getting angry over a ship are silly. And I don’t mean people who have discussions about which ship would work out best or why certain ships won’t work well in reality. I mean people who go around telling other people what they’re allowed to like and people who genuinely get angry about the fact that someone ships two cartoon colored horses together.
Blech, anyways, sorry for random boring textposts!
Sure sounds like you’re the one here who is taking it way too serious.
I love the irony in this ask.
Edit: Haha, I just saw this person sent almost exactly the same message to my SFW blog last night. So much for shoving opinions down the throat of others.
*your
6/10, made me reply. Could use something along the lines of “I’m a highly decorated member of the US Marines!”, though. And definitely needs more insults.

Here is Dolphin anatomy. As you can tell, the female has mammary glands on the side of her vag aka genital slit, not in her anus. Sorry, Im a nerd when it comes to marine life. LOL
Edit by Rat:
Science! Thanks stardustthepony! I got some other interesting messages, and apparently the anal/gential slit is one big slit in the female (where there are still two different openings, the anal one and the vaginal one!), while in the male it looks like an exclamation mark, since the anal opening is in a different slit than the genital one. I found this neat picture:
That’s the genital slit containing the anus and the vaginal opening, the small ones to the side are the mammary slits for delicious Dolphin milk!
The more you know!
Aw, thank you so much! I was afraid you’ll never see the picture since it took me about two months from getting your message until I actually finished it. I’m glad you like it! Thank you again for the nice idea, I think I’ll definitely do the other three of the mane six sooner or later. I already have some ideas for their jewelry!
Holy fuck so many people thinking the gif is real. It probably doesn’t help that people are reblogging it without my comment that identifies it as a photoshop.
Tumblr users are gullible as hell.
I already saw the first “fuck you ubisoft, pandering to Bronies” comment.
And someone claimed they found the same thing ingame. I can’t.PC! It’s the Digital Deluxe. You can add me on Steam or uplay if you wanna play together, maybe. My nick is RatofDeath.
Also if someone who follows me by any chance ends up invading me, please lemme know afterwards!
I use a Intuos5 to draw and usually draw completely in SAI, for some effects or sometimes for coloring I use Photoshop, though! I usually shade on a Layer Mask (Clipping Group in SAI) over the whole image in a nice color on multiply. Warm colors for warm feelings, cooler colors for cold feelings, usually I decide on a nice purple, for AJ a subtle red goes really well, tho! I’m not that good at explaining things, so have some pictures that explain how Masks and Multiply work:
The drawing with outlines and flats.
Shading layer above the whole drawing group. To prevent me from coloring over the area and into the background, I use the mask feature, which does that:
Shading confined in the right area. I do the same for highlights and everything else that isn’t an outline or a flat color.
If we set the shading layer to multiply, we turn that huge purple blob into a more purplish version of the color underlying it:
And voila, shading complete!
Sometimes I use different shading colors for different areas of the picture, but I think for most situations this method is easy and fast while still producing good results. I then smooth the shading out where it needs to be smoother, hard edges where something is casting a hard shadow, secondary light sources, reflections, etc. But that’s the basic method I start with.
I hope that was helpful!
Important: If you shade try to avoid any color involving grey (or even straight black). For highlights also try to avoid straight white. Be creative with your colors! Be bold! I’m nowhere near as bold with my colors as I should be, I’m trying, tho!
