I wore my Birthday Bash dress to Penguicon last month, so it’s been featured in several of my comics about the convention. There’s an official OOTD in the works– I’ve got it inked, I just need to apply the colors, but here’s a preview!
Also, if you want to follow my comic on Tumblr, you can!
NEW GLASSES! *bounces around madly*
I can read my iTunes playlist from waaaaaaaaaaay over here! (Imagine I am leaning way back in my desk chair when you read that.)
Both from Zenni Optical. :D
Went ahead and redrew this piece from 2001. Don’t know if I’ll get around to coloring it, so here it is all sketchy!
Changelist:
Old version:
First things first. For those of you who swear by the pink dress, yes, there’s a version for you as well:
…Aaaaand moving on. So Prince Philip does specifically and emphatically say “this is the 14th century!” at some point during the film, but Philip’s an idiot (a handsome, handsome idiot) and I, never afraid to ignore source material, ignored him.
Oddly enough Philip’s clothing is a better point of reference than Aurora’s (since the hourglass, off-the-shoulder cut of her dress is straight out of the 1950’s), and there are far more examples of his get-up from the 1460’s onward than in the 14th century. I went with my gut and ended up with something around 1485- a little later than one might expect, but it’s such a (beautifully) stylized film that all bets are off.
EDIT: OH ALSO HER EYES ARE OPEN. Â WHOA.
This whole series is awesome. Click through to her DA and check out the rest of the princesses!
My Little Pony Flash Game: Voice Casting Call
If you haven’t already heard, there is an major My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic game project underway, entirely created by a team of hardworking fans. You can see some samples of the progress on our Youtube page, where we post new video updates every other Monday!
This could be a once in a lifetime chance to voice a cartoon pony.  HERE’S WHAT’S UP:
We are especially in need of more female voices.  In particular, we have had almost no auditions for Spike and Rainbow Dash.  A full list of characters we need voices for can be found HERE.  We haven’t yet compiled a character description for all the new/revamped G1 characters, but we hope to have those up ASAP.  In the meantime, feel free to audition for all the main MLP:FiM cast.
You can use this handy soundboard for fast reference and practice.
I also put together some tips for optimizing your recordings.
If you want to do a voice but feel you can’t imitate any of the mane characters, no worry! Send in some samples of different types of voices/accents you can do.  You can use lines from your favorite movie/anime/comic/etc- the important thing is to show your range.  Try different types of voices: old, young, rough, delicate, etc.
Audition guide:
- Please introduce yourself with your base voice for reference.
- Speak 3-5 lines per character.Â
- Pick lines with varied emotions to show your range.
- If auditioning for more than one character, send each character audition as a separate file.
- Use lines from the show. (This helps us compare your voice to the originals.)
- When finished, email your audition to postmaster@derpyhooves.com, with the title “(Your name here) voice audition)”
Please reblog! =)
It’s been a little over 6 months since I broke up with Deviantart, and I think I’m a little less bitter. I’ve been thinking in the back of my head about starting anew with a fresh DA gallery, but it seems that my account was closed prior to a Very Important Date, so I can’t get my alexheberling username back.
:/
I guess I could re-register with alex-heberling or something like that.
I don’t entirely hate this one. It’s a picture of Hue Scarlett, from the Hues, my previously-mentioned magical girl fiction project. I should redo this picture with my current skills.
That’s it for the stuff from 2001! Maybe in another year, I’ll look through the stuff from 2002. ^_^;;
Aw yeah, it’s 10-year-old Gundam Wing fanart!
I had a brief crush on Heero (top center) at the time. Of course, I hadn’t really seen that much of the show at that point, but that didn’t mattter.
