Maybe I should not have specialised my various social accounts... I am only one person, after all, and this division has just resulted in most of the accounts getting new posts only every once in a blue moon. I have drawn many drawings, but none of them are MLP-related, so I've nothing to post...

A quick post to note that I am not dead (fortunately), taking advantage of me having drawn something that does belong on my BlueSky account, something that doesn't happen very often, I admit.

Having divided up my various social networks into various specialisations, I now realise this means that accounts will mostly take turns being active because I never actually pursue all my artistic interests at once, I do so in "seasons of focus". BlueSky, being my MLP outlet, is inactive right now.

Commissions are closing for the month of September as I'll be travelling for most of it. I'm planning to reopen some time in mid-October, which would allow me some time to recuperate after I return home.

Commissioned art for master Greywind: a character sheet of the One-Eared Revia, a recurring character in the "Grace and the Revias" series and the first character I ever drew for master Greywind, back in the very first commission I did for them.

You're very welcome, master Destrab! Sorry for taking a whole month on this... but still, it was a blast drawing Suzume! "Solution is gun. If application is ineffective, apply more gun until problem disappears."

This is a full month after the fact, but still better late than never, I hope! Happy birthday, master @destrab.bsky.social. Here's to another year survived, and another year to win through in style! Here's a drawing of Suzume with a gun to help blast through obstacles, featuring my OC #Tiandriel.

Third commissioned drawing of the current set showcases the alternate-timeline Grace Hester who, after a head wound rendered her mute, became a terrifying and semi-shunned hermit who is secretly her town's first line of defence and secret weapon.

Meto30 (commissions closed) @meto30.bsky.social · 09/08/2025

Second commissioned drawing of the current set, depicting Grace Hester in another timeline where she got wounded while fighting a horde of militors. This drawing depicts the fight right before being shot in the head. The helmet saved her life, but she still ended up being permanently affected.

Meto30 (commissions closed) @meto30.bsky.social · 05/08/2025

First commissioned drawing of this set is this narrative-oriented ink drawing I made for master Greywind, my long-time supporter and wonderful source of inspiration. The drawing depicts two of their #Rimworld OCs, Grace Hester and the One-Eared Revia.

Next page of "the Siren Business" will prob be uploaded some time in early August, as I don't think I'd have time to work on it if I want to release episode 3 of Yuri of House Dracondar by 25 July. Many apologies for this delay!

Silly me, I forgot to post the next page yesterday! Here's my response to #NATGday7, "with the love of their lives", being also the 7th page of my comic "the Siren Business". The gang convenes at their regular haunt, Sugarcube Corner. Princess Twilight meets Sci-Twi! Not for the first time.

There was a slight delay due to the other comic taking quite a while to draw (due to the scale of the perspective guide that I needed to "build"), but here's page 6 of the Siren Business, which is also my response to #NATGday6, "thick as thieves".

Oh hello! There must've been an imposter among us (!) before I actually replied, I see. What kind of commission would you be interested in? What medium shall we use for the commission; Vgen? Directly without middlemen? And also, how would you like to communicate?

As I noted in the commissions announcement post, one of the three slots is already spent. This is what that one slot was used for: a Rimworld OC commission for master Greywind. It was a digital flat colour commission priced at 160 USD.

These are the prices for my digital art, with examples and theoretical price breakdowns to aid understanding. I offer digital art in four tiers: line art, line art + halftones, flat colour, and cel-like shaded colour. I also do traditional commissions—look below for their prices!

I continue my adventures in "stringing all prompts of ATG2025 into one continuous comic" with #NATGday5, "being insincere". Sunset Shimmer tells Princess Twilight what Sci-Twi's been up to lately.

With the 3rd one done, I'm not a fifth of the way through! Anyway, next we have Prof. Maelstrom with mackerel fins/markings for @meto30.bsky.social . He seemed like the scholarly type so he's reading. Hope you like it! #mlp #mlpfim #brony #seapony #merpony

Seapony version of a unicorn oc called Prof. Maelstrom. He has markings/fins based off a mackerel, is wearing a yellow collared shirt with a blue sweater vest, and he's reading a book held in a blue magic aura that also emits around the bauble of the angler fish-like appendage that serves as a horn on the forehead. He also wears thick black glasses over blue eyes,

For most of my childhood most of my parents' interest in my hobbies mostly boiled down to "how to prevent Meto from spending time on them", so I grew a habit of automatically treating all my hobbies as "secret". It's been tough trying to grow out of that habit. XD

Meto30 (commissions closed) @meto30.bsky.social · 05/06/2025

That's good to hear! I'm effectively drawing two comics at once throughout June, and the other one takes priority, so I think I'll be making these responses at roughly 2-3 days per page, roughly, I think. These pages take about 3-5 hours, and pages of the other one takes about two days per page.

Meto30 (commissions closed) @meto30.bsky.social · 05/06/2025

At this point it is clear my own responses to PonySky (Newbie) Artist Training Grounds is not going to be on time, so I'll just take it easy and finish the pages at a steady and comfortable pace. This is my response to #NATGday3, "Pony Keeping their Cool".

Yes indeed! Just as I did for ATG2022, my ATG2025 is also primarily focused on Sunset Shimmer. She's my favourite non-alicorn pony, after all :D

Meto30 (commissions closed) @meto30.bsky.social · 01/06/2025

Intention is to go with the daily prompts from PonySky, but I may have to adjust if juggling this *and* my regular manga together turns out to be too much. XD We’ll see.

For a while I was wondering what format/medium I should choose for this year's Artist Training Grounds, as I am pursuing several. After some consideration I decided that I should follow the trail of evolution my past ATGs have taken; therefore, for this year's ATG I'm drawing a manga. #NATGday1

This is a manga-style digital line art enhanced with black-and-white halftones that depicts Sunset Shimmer (in human form) standing in front of the statue-portal in front of Canterlot High, waiting for someone to arrive.
