Artist's Training Grounds Alumni Group - Week 35 - Create an imitation of another work!

Around this table, several friends gather every so often, a little bar called the Lusty Seapony. Usually, they just sit back and unwind, but some nights, a deck of cards gets broken out and they play a few rounds of cards.

Starting in the lower left and going clockwise, you have Delta (:icondelta-pangaea:), Night Flurry (Myself :iconinvidlord:), Mahogany (:iconbrokenhero0409:), Whiteout (:iconmlp-whiteout:) and Nass (:iconnightofaccordionsax:)

Specifically, this piece is imitating: [link] which is, Dogs Playing Poker, naturally. I made an attempt to switch up my style for this to make it look more like a painting, and actually spent a lot of time on the details to try to make it look like the painting more. Instead of drawing outlines and coloring in, I drew the ponies by hand with a transparent layer, and then painted over that layer to fill in and detail over that inital layer. It turned out to be a fun process, with interesting results in some cases, it looks a little sloppy in places, but part of that was intended as part of the process to make it seem all oil-painting-ish, or something. I'm pretending to talk like I know what art looks like here.
