MLP: FiM Spike and Twilight

***
Heh, this one is apparently being used as the banner picture on Equestria Daily for a fanfiction story. That wasn't expected; my brother brought it to my attention. I didn't even submit this one to them so I guess the writer found it on their own or through one of my other submissions.

You can check out the link to the story here: [link]

I haven't even read it yet. I'll get right to that!

By sheer and hilarious accident, this image is 1920x1080 so if anyone wants a desktop background...

Finished! It's finished! Despite her eyes being a little off, I think I learned a lot this time. I now have two of the main cast done. My goal is to do each of the six girls in different poses and angles in order to practice.

Isn't learning fun?

Coming soon:

Pinkie Pie - probably with her arms up, coming out of a cake or something

Applejack - I wanted to use her to practice open mouths and back-to-camera pose. Not sure how to manage that. Maybe twirling a lasso around her or something.

Rarity - I need a frontal shot and wanted to try more facial expressions. I'm thinking a fearful or tearful shot of her staring at the camera will work. I may also make her sitting down haunched.

Fluttershy - I don't have a perfect side-shot but I find that boring for scenes and too many of her official arts have her in that pose. Maybe a flying stance and an angle slightly below her. She has so many good poses and I love her eye shape. I might do like twelve Fluttershys.
