I've noticed that I enjoy fleshing out my stories as I draw, so here are some:
Story/Character Building Art Prompts
- A childhood memory (Optional: Include a pet, warm colors, or your character's room growing up.)
- Noir time! (Optional: What's your character's cruel underbelly? What are they most ashamed of? Go all out with sharp lines, and heavy contrast.)
- Sea, stars, or sky? Why? (Optional: Cool colors and surrealism would look lovely on this one.)
- Species/Gender/Theme/Outfit Swap! (Optional: What makes your character who they are? What can you remove with them still being recognizable? What's their core?)
- A dream (Optional: Surrealism, streaky lines, and perhaps repressed guilt?)
- How does your character see the world?
- What happens when your character dies? (Optional: What happens to their body? What's on their tombstone? How does everyone react?)
- Skeletal system or anatomy! Do they have any weird traits, or genetic conditions? How does it affect them?
- Someone just threw a banana over your character's head. How do they react? (Optional: Push that expression as much as possible! Make it silly!)
- What occupies your character's mind? (Optional: Draw one of those cross sections of their head with different things labeled.)
- Tragedy strikes! What happens? (Optional: Use muted colors, have fun with blood!)
- Your characters main outfit(s) are in the wash! What's some clothing items they own, but rarely wear? (Optional: Draw them in something way too tight, or way too loose.)
- A close up of your character's eyes, or of am object they cherish. (Optional: Add lots of shine, and vibrant colors!)
- Make a cardboard figure of your character, maybe pose them around your room? ( Optional: What would they do first if they found themselves suddenly very small and in your house?)
- Draw how a song that reminds you of your character or story feels. (Optional: Choose a color that fits the song's tone, but use as many shades of that color as you'd like!)
- RUN! (Optional: Attempt some fluid poses! What is your character scared of? What would they run from, and are they happy about it?)
- Draw some minor characters! Does anyone not get as much love or attention compared to the others? (Optional: Draw them as cool/badass possible, or draw their 'moment'.)
- Draw your character's coolest moment. Is it a triumph? A gory display? Sort of pathetic actually?
- Make a tarot card for your character. What would they represent? (Optional: What would they be the god/ruler/saint of?)
Feel free to use these in any way you'd like, but please tag me in anything you make using them (I'd love to see)!

I like to think that the first thing Luna did after her release from the moon was get excited about hearing that there's a nightlife in the bigger cities and ends up going to a club and having the time of her life. She meets Vinyl Scratch, Pinkie Pie takes her, Rainbow Dash insisted on going. She drinks someone under a table because she can't get drunk (alicorn) and the poor guy almost gets alcohol poisoning, she was not told it was a drinking contest. She either finds out an alcohol is named after her moon, or ponies freak out because she reveals that she invented moonshine. I like the she invented moonshine idea, it's fun.

I drew the ring from @one-time-i-dreamt 's recent dream
Although I added on to it because I couldn't help myself, I needed to add the mermaid, I tried making sense of the silhouette for you on how it works as a ring in the corner
just a basic two hour? sketch. I needed the ring out of my brain. and it's not even from my brain originally!
I tried to make it looked like tarnished gold, I'm not good at shading metal... but practice makes ya better doesn't it?

Listening to Human After All by Daft Punk and wishing I could draw.
Like, imagine, two intersecting handshakes forming an X. Bottom left corner, a rat, top right, an eldritch being. Bottom right corner, an android, top left, an angel. All of us are reaching for kindness, and even though it's hard to understand those above or below us, at the end of everything, we all strive for the basic kindness that humanity represents. If anything, the human condition is less about being superior to the animals living in the world around us, but recognizing that we represent a sort of kindness that every other creature hopes to reproduce. We are the living icon of the fact that living beings can be kind with no promise of reward, and as if in response, every other force seeks to try it on. From the scrawniest rat to the greatest entity, from the manufactured robot to the holy seraph, none of them knew kindness until we showed it to them. If I could draw, that's what I would draw. The agreement between four completely unrelated beings to be human, if only for a day.

Draw the same object at different price points.
For example, a chair.
What would a chair that costs $1 look like?
What about a chair that costs $10?
$100?
$1,000?

My favorite flavor of dragon is giant bird. Birds like shiny things, dragons like shiny things. It's a match made in heaven. And they both love to raise hell.
Imagine a parrot or toucan dragon. A raven and/or crow dragon. A bluejay dragon. A Phoenix dragon. Ostrich, Emu, Shoebill, vultures of different varieties, peacocks
