Bane of those with feathers. Fear of the flying. A humble earth pony serving the Equestrian empire during the 'First contact war' with the Griffons.
She sought to find ways to defend those who walk the earth from the terror from skies, striking fear from below rather than above.

Edit: She's currently avoiding to reveal her name (i.e. I don't have a name for her yet )
Edit 2: And I shall name her Sky Siren
I liked the idea of her being a Siren. If Earth wasn't used in EarthPony I'd maybe called her Earth Siren.
She's entirely focused on the sky. She can't fly herself, those who can are who she fears. But it's also those who fear her.

A piece set in my time line revolving around a First contact war with the Griffons, which for me started back in August with this piece: [link]
It's definitely something I'd like to expand on in the future.

Started this piece in November, so took me quite some time to finish, but then here it is, finally!

I slowed myself down with this piece, taking a different approach. Mainly as in more time for Line Art. I also applied a bit of shading I learned from making Isometric Game Art, all in all, trying to create another experience, try things out etc. In terms of line art you could say I went back to my roots when I first started Pony art
Good fun though, unfortunately I hit some blocks along the way and it took longer than I expected. But hey, that's sometimes how things go.

In the end I'm still uncertain of my styles and ways of working though, focusing on one makes me feel like I lose the others. Which is slightly unsettling, but we'll see

Approx total time: 14 hours
