Does this look like a graduation cap at all???

I originally posted asking if anyone figured it out, but then looked up the question and found a few unanswered posts. So, instead of waiting, I tried again! (To avoid karma farming, I did delete the previous post.)

Now; This looks like a blob to me, but does it at least sorta look like a graduation cap? This is the best I think I could manage. Any constructive criticism? Help?

Attempts at a Moon Fez

Someone suggested I make a Moon Fez to pair with Astronaut Fez. I love the idea- Hell, I'm apparently a sucker for duos. I just had trouble figuring out how.

Then I lowkey remembered the tantibus and just decided to roll with a similar vibe.

Problem was keeping it recognizable as Fez. I wanted to make it a more pale yellow rather than using the mane color, which was already a shot in the foot. In turn, I switched back to the actual default mane to match up the sillhouette better.

I originally considered using AFK Fez as a base, but I'm not sure it reads properly as Fez.

So, I made two others;

Test 1 is meant to look a bit more like the night sky, obv taking more inspiration from the tantibus than before.

Test 2 is meant to just look more like the default Fez with the neck blending into the sky like it does on the original.

Which one looks better?

Even more Fezes added + gif of the bulk of them at the end

Okay so uh

I still have 5 Fez emojis left so I'm unsure if I'll just blow through them or keep doing what I have been. On the other hand, I now have well over 40 Fezes and probably should start deleting some.

I wanna keep the collection though...

Think giving them a dedicated spot on my Straw would be enough? I could just give it a separate sorta secret page that one has to click the right image for,, s' fun.

Anywho, I already updated the perma poll ( https://forms.gle/uZL1qQpVyTCvbEcP7 ), so now I just gotta go add the missing Fezes and scream at docks again.

I kinda wanna rant about both the new Fezes and how the poll went, but I don't wanna make the post too long so I'll save it for the comments. Just know that both the spider and the "ant" Fez have some design lore.

Only exclusions from the gif at the end are the Phone Fez in the suit and the new Fezes.

Fez list; Big update!!

I kept forgetting to post these-- Anywho, we have many a new Fez! I also updated a couple of the old, decided I wasn't satisfied with how they all turned out. Showing the updated Fezes, as well as the older Fezes who got new partners.

That being said; I am ~ halfway through the Fez emojis now!! Wish me luck on the last few.. 🫪

More experimentation with swirled and big-eye glasses

I guess you can consider this a part two to my last post > https://www.reddit.com/r/PonyTown/s/6sT7BievsI

Someone mentioned that the weird eyes could work for a Bobble cos,,, and though I don't exactly plan to cos Tinkerbell* I had to experiment with it. *(Before anyone asks; just not THAT into it,, I still have other coses I want to make more.)

I figured that, while at it, I should test to see how the eyes looked in different configurations.

Apparently I'd done the swirl correctly,, I just shouldn't have tried to invert it on the right.

Either way; Wondering if I should make a tutorial on these? Esp since it's kinda be a waste of good goggles? I mean just look at the nekid barely shaded one in the middle of the collection. And, if you're the type of player who prefers it doesn't change when it's turned, I was able to fix that without making it look too bad.

Which one would suit LBD Fez better? Does the pair contrast well with the bride and groom Fezes?

Okay so; Small problem.

When I made the original groom/suited Fez, I didn't realize he was the counterpart for the bride and imagined him as the masc counterpart of the Little Black Dress wearing Fez I made years ago.

Then I realized it was the groom emoji, gave him his wife, etc etc- Leaving LBD Fez solo again. This made me realize I don't like that.

I asked about a proper counterpart in the comments of my last poll, someone suggested black or white suit. (Link - https://www.reddit.com/r/Fez\_Squad/s/nEZbbBCFIv )

I also googled what the masc ver of a LBD would be and got black or navy blazer.

I always kinda thought LBDs were meant to be risque based on how the radio station kept promoting LBD parties at the club where I live,, but apparrently not???

Either way- The LBD Fez used a different hue on the black parts, so to differentiate between the pairs I used the same golden-black instead of the purple-black from the emoji. I also decided to take that purple hue and use it for the white, to contrast the yellow-tinted wedding dress on the bride.

So, all that to ask; Which blazer/clubbing Fez (first two images) fits with my LBD Fez (third image) better? Do they contrast well with the wedding Fezes (4th and 5th image)?

Updated/graded phone head tutorial

Uh... Hello? Hello?

Sorry, had to.

I made a tutorial with this exact base over a year ago now- But, since then, the game has had a few updates. I have not changed the way it looks, but the face pattern was simplified regardless.

Original: https://www.reddit.com/r/PonyTown/s/7aleL7fWmI

I also have gotten better at image editing for these tutorials, and thought it would look better if you see the pony being built as you go through it.

Have I not already recently posted a Tutorial? Yes, that is actually why I decided it was a good time to update this one.

That being said;

  1. In the original, I kinda shorted everyone by not at least showing a couple of alt models. So, now there are two of them- Based off the phones used for Harry and Roger from DSAF.

  2. Since they added plushies, I figured a little reciever-buddy would be cute. I would recommend avoiding using a tail on it-- but, some can work and look good, so ✋😅

I would always recommend experimentation, obv there are otehr possibilities-

Anyways, bye-

Which Fez *emoji* should I make a cos of next?

I keep trying to ask this and people keep misunderstanding, save the legit only one person who asked about the astronaut and mechanic emojis.

So,,, trying this again.

An image showing which emojis I am referring to will be in the comments.

If Hasbro is trying to scare future employees straight or something, they could've commissioned smthn like this rather than using AI. /j

In all seriousness- I'm pretty sure everyone heard about Hasbro's use of AI- If not, I'm not sure if posting a screenshot would be against the rules, I found out through an anti AI sub myself.

For some reason that image made me want to add lore. Idk, Pinkie just looked all sorts of wrong and that was NOT RainbowDash.

Which made me think,,, YEAH this is probably what happens WHEN you split the party.

Also,, idk about you but I think Pinkie would definitely outlive the other girls (besides obv Twi) and go kinda cookoo alongside her until it's her turn. Just a gut feeling.

...

Anyways, have a good day, bye.

I updated my site both in an attempt to make it iOS friendly and to add new pages like my PT Tutorial page.

I got a comment from an iOS user stating that my stickers were covering text last time,,, I think I fixed the landing page but I need a tester maybe?

As the new homepage states, I don't plan to fix any page besides the real landing, sorry to anyone on iOS/Mac it just ain't worth it.

On the other hand, I would also like to get any comments on my newest page on my site- The Twotorials page for my PT Tuts! I just wanna know if people agree it looks good or nah.

Fez List Update! (Somehow got deleted by accident)

Hii heyy hellooo!

New list update just dropped! Getting to the point where I kinda need more than 2 screenshots for the whole list when I share this 😅

Two of these were posted in the comments of my last Fez list update, but they were made after the post was- So, now they get to be part of the actual post!

While the merpony was part of last post, I changed his eyes.

Speaking of, previous post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Fez_Squad/s/NTLTxcugwe

I've already shared my Anime Girl Fez in my anime eye tutorial post (> https://www.reddit.com/r/PonyTown/s/kImIO7eRS4 ) and my "what happens if you emote" post (> https://www.reddit.com/r/PonyTown/s/6JFAQaREqR ), but those aren't in the fezsquad sub so they technically don't count. They esp weren't a list update.

For those who can't read the pixelated text on the emoji chart;

Bright red is done,

light red/pink is technically done (basically all the off-default),

white is being skipped due to an inability to recreate currently,

light green is the ones I might be able to do,

bright green is the ones I plan to try eventually

Last time I posted this, I asked for help deciding which Fez to create next.

Didn't get much.

"Make a Halloween Fez" not only do I have multiple Fezes that already count, all the remaining emojis can count besides mechanic (just did btw), bride, fisherman and farmer.

"Make a colorful one, they catch attention!" I'm *trying* to stick to the Fez emojis for now, so I would rather not, but I made one with one different color to test the water.

"Anime Fez" While I did take this idea... Again, E M O J I S. I was trying to decide which emoji to replicate dangit!

Aside from that, no comments- Two of these suggestions I had to beg for on PT (and I plan to do so again, don't feel bad.)

Am I complaining? Not really. More just surprised. People seemed more active in the PT sub.

Anywho; Which emoji should be next?

Alternate/Bigger anime eyes [TUTORIAL]

Okay, so this is way more complex than these other anime eyes than I thought- But, I didn't use the tutorial to figure it out, so can you blame me?? Anyways, these are based HEAVILY on this anime eye tutorial, I found the thumbnail via Google. https://youtu.be/wRtIXO8FVwA?is=z3KxrzZRslEtUXBp

This tutorial is for a minimally shaded version, however with some tweaks I'm sure you can definitely shade on your own- An example of such is on the last slide, in the form of my Anime Girl Fez.

It works strangely with many expressions, but very well with others, so I would encourage experimentation! My second-to-last post in this sub is a good example. https://www.reddit.com/r/PonyTown/s/27hVwsQCwJ

Red: Skin tone

Black: eye lash

Orange: eye color or other

White + grey: eye whites

Also; The sideways scars (layers 3 and 4) are flexible- You can remove them, switch their colors, make them both eye color or white, etc. Obviously the same goes for the earrings- I just like how it seems to extend the lashes.

Moral of the story; Any tut can be built upon. Have fun!

u/An_Idiot_Called — 2 months ago

"What happens if you emote"

I made this "anime" Fez and I keep getting comments about the eyes,,, but today I got a question and I uhhhhhhhhhhh

Also, before anyone asks how, I can do a tut for the eyes but they're practically the same as any other anime eyes save that I used white eyelashes and made the eyeshadow and some face patterns into the ""eyelashes"" instead.

  1. puke
  2. cheeky wink
  3. TwT
  4. 😭
  5. just normal open eyes
  6. the default expression

Pick a tag, see a pony

I just finished reorganizing my pixel horses, so here are all my tags once again.

If you want to see my fezes, just know I already have a post regarding that.
