Well. Decided to finally do it. I made a ref' sheet for Frisket including a few color dots, information, and a concrete list of traits I'm gonna be following myself.

Admittedly, I made the paws WAY too big. C_c; They should not be that big in the back, but blah. It was a late night doodle. I use to draw Frisket's claws black, but I think the flesh work with her colors a lot better.

Anyway.

Jen and I decided Tyler will learn to fear the cute. In random conversations with Spunky, decided ..Hey! Jen needs to be a My Little Pony! But no! She likes sheep.. Thus with Jen bouncing with the ideas of sheep in her head, we came up with My Little Sheep c.c; Yes. Start fearing.

Now this is in reply to her comment how she's gonna draw Frisket as Piyo... as well as poor Tyler who has no other option other than to whine. Poor boy. Love you Tyler. (And to think, he evaded being Piyo-ized for nearly 2 years or so. Aw. Too bad :} )

Tyler will learn to fear the cute. Bwhaha.

Enjoy this Jen! -luffs-

Tee hee. Not only did Sinnam0n surprise me with a badge she made for me at AC04, but she had also found a My Little Pony for me that looked like it was trippin' on acid or somethin' XD -- Was neon pink with neon lime yellow hair that was crimped. Needless to say it was an epitome of the 80s.

Sort of a thank you for all she's done :} Thank you hon!!

Emilu has always been a sweety, Emilu never has failed to do somethin' special for me on my birthday. Really need to celebrate her as a friend more often :}

Tee hee. Pixie Stix! XD -- Poor Emilu may have a bundle in this picture, but they've seemed to have sprung a leak. O.o;

Kaimelar is an absolute sweetie o.o; I was feeling down and she surprises me not only with a willing/listening ear, but a picture of Frisket slobberin' up a Quezaquine plushy :}

Here y'are hon. Hope I did your Kaimelar justice ^_^ Kaimelar is a maned wolf/husky hybrid.

Tee hee. Okay. So there's no such thing as a blonde bordercollie according to my friend Liz ( :iconaureath: )

Never the less, I call her blonde. In the true scheme of colors she'd be called tan/sable. Never the less, I really like rare colors, and this is one of the more unique ones (another being red or the merles)

Jus' a little border collie named Winter :} She's like OMFG! BALL! My Ball! MINE MINE MINE

....
End.

Winter(c)Melissa O'Brien 2004

Well this is for a friend of mine. Originally we had a tiff (but as all things it seems, made up n' now she's a friend :) ) --- We both like lemon pepper chicken... my little ponies.. and American Indian Dogs

Unlike Frisket, India is a short haired American Indian Dog -- As with tradition of all that species they've pale eyes (generally blue or gold)

Anyway. A gifty for her...cause she's a screwball n' drew me n' Tyler as pokemon.. Thus I fear XD

Here y'are sweets

Eh. Somethin' I did a while back while in MA to practice getting use of my hand again after getting my thumb caught in a meat slicer at work.

I liked it. Not my typical style -- in ways of the body, but I do like it ... Sorta realistic without it being fully realistic. C_c; Dunno :}

N' of course wanted to experiment with cop-out BGs ^_^ Ha ha.

Frisket(c)Melissa O'Brien 2004

Eventually I'll have them cut out and laminated. They're Con Badges -- Either to be worn at Cons or just to be worn on backpacks or whatever.

The pink one is of Sweet Peep. She's a twinkle eye, twice as fancy pegasus. Peeps, candies, and hearts being her symbols.

Bonsai is my boyfriend's character -- A big brother pony/unicorn with a bonsai tree for a symbol. (Inside joke since Claire got me Mimic -- Bonsai's mom was Mimic. Same colors..well..nearly. O.o; Wasn't planned that way.)

I will be selling MLP badges. Real rhinestones will be put on the eyes of twinkle eye ponies; etc.

Sadly the scan does it really no justice. C_c; Looks better.

Anyway, the colors are a lot more sharp/bold upclose... -- Just the final version I'll have (until the Con...)

Tyler is going to ink wash the black so it won't look streaky like it is now. I'll upload the revised version once its done. But for now, here it is.

Happy Bidding. For sale at AC04

Gem(c)Melissa O'Brien 2004

Another piece up for grabs at AC04 ... Please if interested to cast a silent bid.

Took me a while to figure out what type of cat to do, but Jac', Ty's sister, finally helped me decide on a Siamese.. It fit. The earthy tones of the feline and her rosey brown leather go well in my own opinion with the otherwise bright and colorful background. Personally love the rose stone wall she's sitting on. Think it came out nicely. Surprised the light blue in the castle background didn't come out... then again, despite Pegasus's software, Ty's scanner is no cannon ;) But it does the trick well enough.

Hopefully this'll go to a nice home :}

Kitten(c)Melissa O'Brien 2004

PLEASE DO NOT COPY/REDISTRIBUTE/ALTER/ETC.

This is one of the pieces that will be sold at AC04.

Unfortunately the quality of the scan doesn't justify the coloring job. Unfortunately, it's the best I can do unless someone can find me a copy of Photoshop or get me a better scanner to use ;)

Eitherway, the detail on the white fur was lost... as well as the colors dulled :/ Meh. I still like it. I'm doing a mirror piece to this featuring a Mardi Gras themed Ocelot jester.

Vixen(c)Melissa O'Brien 2004


* For sale and not to be reused/sent out eithout express permission. Inquiries on this piece can be emailed to me.

Blah. Ty's scanner and program SUCKS. I mean.. oh my god.. C.c;;;;;

I really dunno what I can do. I need to spend some time with Ty t'night togglin' with things, I guess. But the quality of what it scanned and what the picture actually is is ..really contrast.

Anyway, THIS will be sold at AC04... it'll be colored and matted and framed.

Raccoon chick pullin' a heist. So cliche yet you don't see it too often :>

Hopefully if someone buys it, they'll get me a good scan of it :)

Ha ha.. My Little Ponies. Fear me. Ahem.

Eitherway, this was a design I had in my head and decided to go ahead and share it. :) Summer/windy wing ponies are a little larger than the baby ponies. They're delicate in build and have large butterfly wings and symbols pertaining to nature or summer.

I decided to play on the theme. Crow Berry is a Windy Wing (as the symbol is a bird.). Her symbol is a crow holding a sprig of mulberry.

Originally I was going to play with mauve and teal as a dominate color but it didn't turn out as well as I thought it might in my head. I think the peach/tangerine and mulberry/raspberry colors play off the name and accent the design better.

I originally did this as a 10 minute doodle a night or so ago. I was really digging the dynamics of the pose... It was jus' fun. The sketch I think was a bit stronger.. But..Not too terribly bad over all.

I left the black lines, and that defining around her color zones in a play with 'comic style'. I like it -shrugs- Pretty good for a quick job. :)

Originally gonna be drawn as a joke, with a pile of My Little Ponies behind her, decided against it .^_^

Frisket(c)Melissa O'Brien 2004

Was inspired by Wolf's Rain.. I tried to mimic the style. I failed ._. ;; This bothers me a lot.. lot of things aren't right.. including the shit-tastic colorin' job ;P

BUT I do like the face. My sole reason for finishing this ;)

Whee. Mean Frisket Puppy (c)Melissa O'Brien 2004

Well... Are you happy Tyler? XD He's been nippin' at me to draw Frisket (for my experiments) as a Snail for a while :}

I think it was Neogeen that suggested I draw her as a Crow (along with Tyler) and an Orca

The Fly Trap was in a lapse of caffine-happiness. Like it.

And then the snow-leopard was randomness. And I learned. Mel does not like spots. No no. No more spots. Damn spots. Too many spots ._.;

I see spots

Anyway :}

Well a while ago.. .hell. Nearly a year ago, Lysander graciously gifted me a some MLPs ^_^ I've been meaning to do this for a very long time.. and I'm very sorry for takin' so long, hon o_o;;

Anyway, her character not as a My Little Pony, but instead as a Dream Beauty (a MLP -like- horse made by Hasbro.) So yea. :3 The first sketch I did was sorta undynamic. This is a bit -more- dynamic..although not 'wow'. Meh. The colorin' took a heckva'lot time cause had to color strand by strand. @_x; Yee.

Anyway Thank you Lysander!

Another gift for Jasanni. Her other alter-ego character that's different from Jasanni ^_^ Bwhee. This is again for the fact that she has been uber kind to me. I can't thank ya enough, gal :}

Rayvn(c)Jasanni

Jasanni has been an utter sweet heart in my attempts to build my collection (of My Little Ponies, yo.)... She's sent me so much- - includin' Sweet Tooth, Sweet Stuff, and Speedy to further advance my TE and TAF (twinkle eye and twice as fancy collection :} ) Bwhee. Thanks to her, I'm only a few ponies shy of the goal XD

So yea. This is a gift for her. S'of her anthro char, Jasanni. She's never been drawn before by any other, so hope I got her right c.c;

Jasanni(c)Herself

This is a gift. Not for anyone's personal use BUT Jasanni's. As with all my work (had thought this known) DO NOT redistribute my work without permission.

Now my "Frisket Experiment" will be now known as "Experiment F"

The third, I tried to push the limits. ... Go with a floofy earred dog and try to really define what makes Frisket herself. ... I'm not wild about this..but the face n' ears n' tail came out ok...

Frisket as an Afgahn Hound.

Frisket(c)Melissa O'Brien 2004

The second in my on going experiment. This time, playing with a more difficult and strict coat pattern -- A Doberman. Tee hee. I liked the stubby tail ^_^

Mrr. Anyway. This is Frisket...as a Doberman. As if you couldn't guess already XD

Frisket(c)Melissa O'Brien 2004

The first of a long going experiment. You know you have a good character if you can draw them as MANY different species.. (Even different species of canine)..and still be able to recognize the character.

This one I decided to alter her normal Indian Dog appearance and make her a "Husky" ... :3

Frisket(c)Melissa O'Brien 2004

To quote the book "Dragons: A Natural History" by Dr. Karl Shuker... Page 56:

For centuries, people living in the Bavarian, Austrian, and Swiss Alps have claimed that the mountains are home of an extraordinary animal known locally as the tatzelworm.

In 1954, Sicilian farmers reported that a creature with a cat's head and a serpent's body had attacked their pigs.

Tatzelworm (clawed worm) also called the Stollenwurm (hole dwelling worm) is said to be snake like, 4-5 feet long, two visible forelegs, resembling a lindoworm. It's head is described as being catlike.

This is my take on the beast.

Tatzelworm Rendition(c)Melissa O'Brien 2004

Eee. Hope she likes it. Whippet offered me a Twinkle Eye Locket MLP in trade for a drawing of her MLP character :3

Yay. I drew this. ^_^ I like how it came out :3 Yay! Can't wait to get Locket -glee- Locket ^_^ -purr-

Bwhaha. I was feeling hostile O_o; Nyah. Jus' wanted to show off a more 'were' Frisket. No reason inparticular other than I could. :3

Was a quick job. Jus' random loose sketch that I inked... n' comic-colored. Anyway :3

Frisket(c)Melissa O'Brien 2004

I decided to do this for Sanguine. She surprised me out of the blue with a Frisket icon! ^_^ Was utterly tickled. Love it and just thought I should do a 'thank you' of sorts :3

(Ha. Procrastinating. I don't wanna do studying n' final's projects :)

Enjoy and thank ya again!

Bwhahaha. This is cause I like fruits. I really do. ADORE pineapple, pears, raspberries, strawberries, tangerines and oranges, and lemons! I love'em ^_^ So yea.

Frisket's chew toy is a pear. -glee- Mrrr.

Crappy BG... C_c;;

Geeeee. I like Ibizan Hounds o_o; Doodled this up after lookin' at random photos of'em. Mwha. Think I sweet talked Liz into doing a sibling for this char :3 Ty liked the pic..saying she was regal.

Anyway. Her name is Aednat. It's Gaelic/Irish that means "Little Fire"
