to ya’all complaning.2013 has a definite, massive improvement in form, weight, proportions, better lines, facial expression, color… not to diss the 2012 one but damn, prorps where deserved ya’all

I think the real problem is they changed their style drastically in 1 year. Most people that do these 1 year difference things show their improvement because they’ve improved on their style, not changed their/improved their style.
I think the main problem is that those two aren’t the same picture, they are the same pose. The second one has a better construction and a better grasp of proportions, but comparing it to the other is not really a fruitful endeavor; they are just too different at everything to get a real conclusion.

You realize 95% of people draw ponies like that yet it can range from crap to amazing, there’s more to it than what you listed. I like the 2013 one because it had more character, but based on technicality the 2012 one is probably harder to draw.
The first one is as boring as boring can get. Solid, uniform, boring black lines. Boring shitty one-tone blurred shadow. Colors pulled from a ref sheet and left unaltered. The first one is something literally anyone can do.
The second one has a TON of improvement. The first one is boring as fuck. The second one has actual fucking creativity.

Yeah I saw this person’s post a while ago, thought the same thing. Maybe the 2013 is a more unique style, but I don’t think it’s an improvement.
Personally, I vastly prefer 2013. it has way more character to it.

if anyone can do that then why don’t you show us that you can.

Seems like our humble opinions upset you, what a shame.
