MLP OC Suggestionsby ~MizuTakishima

Cartoons & Comics / Digital Media / Cartoons / Other

EDIT: Changed the part about colors clashing. Turns out Purple and Green can go together, but when they're too Saturated, they look like they clash! My bad :'D

EDIT 2: Well, I guess a gamer cutie mark isn't so out of the question now! But stick to maybe a basic Joystick/buttons, since Hearts & Hooves Day confirmed that they do have video games- just in primitive arcade-style, if that makes sense.

EDIT 3: Uh...apparently Gradients are canon, if you count Cadence's wings. Not a very memorable design feature imo, (I think she'd look just fine without them) but Hasbro probably willed it so.

_{OMG My Hiatus is almost over ; w ;}

BEFORE YOU SAY ANYTHING, LEMME DIRECT YOU TO BETTER OC TUTORIALS: [link] [link]

Also some helpful color stuff [link] [link] [link]

Remember, a LOT of this stuff is just my personal opinions and since my art isn't any good, it shouldn't be taken seriously in the least.

But I still wanted to make something that would (hopefully) be useful for anyone out there wanting to avoid MLP OC-cliche's. (As far as looks go) There's no wrong or right way to make an OC!

Still, special shout-out to all the bronies over on Ponibooru for helping me out

(and giving me the guts to upload this)

If you want me to make a part 2 (which would be about actual character brain-storming) just let me know!

I totally agree with the alicorn thing, they seem to be gods/royalty type race, so unless your alicorn is something similar pick one or the other.

Anyone know of a Pony creator that lets you get something other than side views?

~daniel10alien 2 days ago

You can alway draw them yourself!

Easier said than done, my friend. I'm left-handed, and I know left-handed artists are rare, as all techniques are learned right-handed.

It's nearly impossible to mirror those techniques, before anything is said.

Hey, you don't have to feel so outcast just because you're left-handed!
Apparently left-handedness means that your right brain is dominant, and that means you should be naturally good at drawing. I don't think art is something that can be taught anyway. I'm left-handed too, and I am also currently trying to learn to draw ponies (see my gallery?).
Why not give it a try at least?

~AsterianStarfall 1 day ago New member

Honestly, I did. But in reference to the brain thing, I have found I'm blindingly talented at story writing and acting improvisation.

hmm none to my knowledge I'm afraid

Is it weird I think that oc look BUCKING AMAZING. I mean, i agree with you on everything (except the alicorn bit, but I'm not getting into that right now), but oc looks cool. Like some sort of mlp pokemon.
