Suddenly, PONIES

Description

I've been sitting on this picture for about a week now. I drew it back when things first started getting really crappy. So apparently I found out something about myself: When under pressure, I will apparently draw SO MANY PONIES.

And not just any ponies! These are ponifications of a bunch of Suenyaverse characters. We have most of the cast of Always a Hero (except Jasper, for reasons I'll get into shortly), and Angeline and Paud from Lit's Green Earth! Except using pony names, of course. You will notice most of them are unicorns. Let me tell you, in a society where 90% of the people use magic in their day-to-day lives, it is hard to justify making them anything BUT unicorns.

NOTES ON THE PONIFICATION OF EACH:

-Small Miracles (Cora): I had a heck of a time deciding what color to make her main coat. Originally I wanted to make her red, because that's her favorite color. But red didn't "feel" right. I considered making her yellow, and changing her name to Golden Miracles to also pun off her real last name, but that looked so wrong with the brown mane. Eventually I went with purple, because purple has a long history of representing great magical power, and it also nicely represents her being an element outside the normal six elements.

-Whisperheart (Mariselle): She has my favorite cutie mark out of all of them. If you can't tell, it's the shadow of a drake with a heart in it. I tried to make her one of the "slender" ponies, but I'm not sure how well it worked. Also, although her element is Life, I thought she looked better with a pale blue color scheme. Ponies can't wear chainmail bikinis, so she just gets one of those collar things.

-Boysenberry: His name is already kind of a pony name, so he doesn't get one! And while I know that fairy ponies have been A Thing in other gens of MLP (I watched the original series growing up, I got the skillz), there aren't any in G4 so far, so it didn't feel right. Instead, he is a very diminutive pegasus.

-Hammerfall (Danbarre): He came out awful. That's because I doodled him last, just to fill in the space. He's an Earth Pony amidst a sea of unicorns, because he never does use magic in the books, and he has the requisite strength.

-Jasper (???): Is not here! One reason for this: I ran out of paper. Other reason for this: Being royalty, I wondered if he should be an alicorn, being that there seems to be a correlation between alicorns and royalty in the MLP universe. However, I know there are legions of bronies and pegasisters who will pelt you with mushy fruit and call dishonor upon your household for daring to so much as think about making an original alicorn, so I decided to quietly avert the issue and leave Jasper un-ponied.

-Easy Peasy (Angeline): I'm least happy with her face. I just don't like the way it came out. But it could have been worse: Originally, I made her mane and tail black, like her real hair color. Unfortunately, coupled with her green coat, this made her look like the Wicked Witch of the West. Oops. I gave it a more greenish tinge. Whatever Reaction is proposing, she's not into it.

-Reaction (Paud): His horn is at a very wonky angle. But otherwise, I actually like the way his face came out. I like his rather sly expression. Unfortunately, one of the main traits of book-Paud (fat body, scrawny limbs) didn't translate well at all to pony form, so he got the generic "stocky" body type.

Finally, bask in the glory of the patented Freezair "I-Don't-Give-A-Crapground!"

I like these! Cora came out about how I expected; a bit of Twilight Sparkle's smarts, Applejack's grunt, and Rainbow Dash's attitude. Mariselle? I dunno, she seems girlier here than I imagined her, but then, I had something of a Xena-ish "does not dress properly for a fight" character in mind, and they're not terribly girly even in something sheer. :P Danbarre looks pretty much dead on, though, as does Boyse. :lol:

Yeah, Angeline is having a LOOK AT HER FACE GOD DAMN moment here. :( I figure someone who can nourish plants magically would have a less sour look on her face. Paud does look good, though. :)
