Title: Designing my own generation of MLP!
Post by: Funky-Little-Equines on April 16, 2021, 09:11:03 AM
Hi all! This is my first post (besides introductions) so I’m sorry if this is the wrong place to post this or for any errors!

I’m currently working on designing my own generation of MLP-it’s a work in progress and I’m currently doing it as some sort of therapeutic activity-colour a pony when I need a quick break!
You can follow on https://funky-little-equines.tumblr.com/

Heavily inspired by G3 and G1-any my own insatiable desire for a multi-coloured horsey toyline that fully embraces it’s ‘equine-ness’!
Here are some examples;

They are quite adorable! I love that you used brown as a color for some of the ponies :) interesting to see a combination of natural and fantasy horse colors.

Oh my gosh, aren't they precious! :lovey:

You have a wonderful, whimsical style! Plus I adore your pony-looking ponies and dainty foals with appropriate long legs! (It's actually quite interesting how we're so used to MLP where the opposite is true - I guess the proportions are inspired by what humans generally consider cute, like human babies, puppies and kittens.)

I can't pick a favourite character because all the designs are great but I'll try anyhow. Absolutely love Fizz-Whizz, Hand-Me-Down and Frilly Fungus, as well as Baby Breath! I really like how you've made some matching adult & baby designs without repeating the names.

Looking forward to seeing more of your work!  ^.^

My favorite is definitely Sea Trinket. I really love how the foals are similar to but not exactly like the adults!  This is such a cute idea!

I love these! These feel like they could have been actual G3 ponies, if Hasbro continued making new characters past 2007. The names are very cute-Crafternoon and Jam-Bo-Ree..aww!

I love how cute they all look!!! I love the chubby appeal of the first two sets & the slender looks of the third, & how they could all fit in the same world xxx

I adore these! Making my own pony universe is something I've attempted a few times but I never have the attention span needed to follow through lol.

These are cute! I love that you have a couple of mushroom ponies...I was thinking of making a family of mushroom-themed customs myself, inspired by a much-loved fakie of my daughter's that we call Toadstool.

I love each one of these designs!!  :heart: I love how you have used a combination of natural, pastel and earthy tones in the colour schemes. Also the freckles, stars and feathers do give them a horsey feel. I can imagine them living in the woods together in little cottages cooking and crafting ! Looking forward to seeing more of your art in future

The name Sea Trinket is really good.  The eyes remind of art from a book series from when I was a kid, but can't recall the names.  One was about a calf, one a dragon, and many others.

I think you mean Serendipity! My favorite in that series was Flutterby Fly, about a gray pegasus with soulful blue eyes

How cute!  The adults look...extremely pony-like..like British Shetland ponies..kind of like Thelwell ponies maybe?  I love their feathered feet with different colored hooves.  AND I like the babies matching the parents but not being totally identical.  I think the color schemes and symbols are lovely.  Basically...YES.
