Fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft~
I'm almost dead now. I worked the entire day on this Wallpaper, redid the whole thing halfway through and am really glad to have it finished now.
Glow Whooves is for :iconmlp-atg-alumni:'s theme this week (week 35): imitation.
I imitated :iconsmockhobbes:'s Glow Wallpapers. Now, why did I do this?
1. I really like them.
2. I really like Smocky.
3. His Glow Rainbow Dash [link] was one of my first pony pics I saved on my harddrive at all, a while before I knew him. I didn't even knew that it was his the first month or so after I got frinds with him.
Why did I decided to make a Whooves Wallpaper? That's easy: I'm a Doctor Who fan, and Whooves has been the reason for me to start watching MLP:FIM.
You could say in this picture two important things about my MLP history meet each other.

That's it about the picture's background for the moment.

Well, what did I do here? At first I tried to get the same results in PaintSAI like Smock got in PS. I drew Whooves lineart, painted the background black etc. Soon I discovered that it's simply impossible.
I asked Smock, and he gave me a really nice tutorial for glow effects in PS [link] It really helped me a lot, try it out if you want to.

After a short time learning PS CS5 again and using what I learned in the tutorial the pic was finished, and the result looked just gross. Why?
The reason was simple: I drew the lineart with the AirBrush tool in SAI, it was all messy and looked, well, not very well. So I started to use the Pen tool to bring vectors in there. After an hour or so of big confusion I understood how to use it, and since then I've been busy redoing the whole image.
And now, finally, it's done! I'm really glad that I did it in such a short time, learned a bit more about PS and finally hit the deadline in the Alumni group. And I am proud of myself that the creator of this picture is me.

What did I use? PaintSAI, PhotoShop CS5 and my sweet little tablet.
In SAI: AirBrush, Bucket and Eraser
In PS: Pen, many fancy Blending Options and filters, Eraser, Bucket and Idon'tknowwhatelse. Just look into that tutorial I mentioned above, basically that.

I hope you like it as much as I do, dear visitor!


My little Pony © HASBRO and :iconfyre-flye:, maybe a bit BBC as well. Do they own the rights for the Sonic Screwdriver?

Edit~ Oh, yeah, for those of you who wonder about the lines on the left: I wanted to make it look like the progression of time. See [link] to learn more about it from the Doctor himself. Really. Spend these 15 seconds of your life and check it out.

I absolutely LOVE this!

May I use this as a wallpaper on MiLittleBrony.webs.com? It's a Michigan-based Brony meetup site. ^_^
