I haven’t worked with graphite in a while, so it was nice to do a full-detail drawing with it again. My original concept was to have Smarty Pants holding Twi’s head in a sort of guardian-like way. However, even as a filly, her head is too big to full lay in Smarty’s lap. So I went with the next-best thing. I also experimented a bit with that weird “discernible hooves” thing, because why not?
