Description:
My friend, Mani the Mutt came to me to draw this OC for the 2020 Derpibooru Anniversary Community Collaboration. The OC, Solveig, belongs to her friend One Trick.
When given information about the OC, I was told the OC has a blue checked scarf so I used this as a reference:
One Trick also told me that this character had a Norse theme going on with her and requested that her Cutie Mark be Freyja’s Brísingamen necklace. Since there was a lot of different necklace designs for the Brísingamen online, we more or less chose the one that was the least complicated and easiest to translate to a cartoony style.
They both also gave me these pictures for additional references:
They also requested to make her a little bit chubby, so I looked at some pictures of the ponies on the show for reference and tried making her slightly chubbier compared to the main pony body type used in the show. I also looked up a few pictures of ponies sitting down in the show for additional reference too.
When drawing her lower half, I decided to give her tail a braid to match the ones on her mane.
And now she’s done. And just in time for the collab. Now I just got to work on my own OC. Here’s hoping I finish her in time before the deadline.
