NW Pony Party planning thread

[Galactica]

Is anyone else planning to submit a mascot design?

I was thinking of it but I really love Cascade Rain!!!   Should we give it another week ?  If there are other entries we can have a vote

[Honey Bunches]

Sounds Good, Galactica!

Do any of you need the Funko Pony? I just picked up 2 they had at my Hot topic and I'd be glad to pass one along at cost (14.50 ) plus shipping? I still can't believe they had them! I also saw a random Blossomforth at a temporary toy store at the mall, how weird is that? Especially since the one I ordered arrived in the mail yesterday

I'd love to take you up on that offer, but I'd need 2 or WW3 would hit my house :p

I'd take you up on that offer, but I'm on a pony diet until the new year 

[Salli]

lol, no worries. A lot of people are on a pony diet for the holidays. A friend says that Funko is making Dr. Whooves and Fluttershy for the next wave.

Also, I will try to get blue-haired Cascade Rainn with her cutie mark up tonight.

I finally got around to feeling a little creative and came up with a pony  
I present to you Snow Melt!

I'll eventually get around to giving her a better-made cutie mark.  I didn't have a whole lot of time, so I made it in Paint.  The next one will be made with GIMP and I'll include a bigger view of it as well   I still like Cascade Rainne though

[hannaliten]

oooh, I like snow melt! (probably easier to make a plush of than a dappled one)

[Salli]

I LOVE Snow Melt! So pretty! I may need a whole set of NW ponies... I also love that she is green.

Here is Blue-haired CRainn with her cutie mark. Hanna, do they sell grey-spotted fleece? I wonder if it could be achieved with bleach spotting? Also, she could just be solid grey as a plush visitors can't see pics , please register or login

Oh, you put the dapple spotting on the wings too!!

I've been playing with the pony creator but I don't think my ideas are coming out like I want...

So, here's my pony!!
I couldn't decide on a name!!  The horn is supposed to be like an icicle.  Hope my pony doesn't look too pudgy but it looked more like a G1 to me that way!!  LOL

I love both of these ponies! Cascade's symbol originally had a snow-capped volcano in the background but I thought it looked too busy with the rain and trees, I like the mountains on these ladies. It's such a NW thing

[sarafina]

Oooo they're all so beautiful!!  Maybe we need a whole fleet of mascot ponies??

[Galactica]

Ooooh- I LOVE the mascot ponies!

Okay- finally wasted my entire morning on ponymaking instead of work- I think I am still wet from walking in from the lightrail

Here are my ponies! 

For this guy- maybe Torrent (although I also like Raindrop- Torrent seems to fit today...

Wow!!  All these creative ponies!!!  And I agree, I think we need a fleet of ponies!!  Maybe we can have more than one mascot for each year??  I don't like the thought that the ones that don't "win" the vote wouldn't be made into pony ever??

[Salli]

OMG!!!  I third the 'fleet' idea. Maybe we could have a vote for who the mascot is for 2013, then whoever wins can't be it again, then the next year it goes to someone else?

OR we could have a 'cast' of ponies like the cast of FiM. What would be the pony-equivalent of our major cities here? Like:
Manhattan=Mane-hattan
Los Angeles=Los Pegasus
Philadelphia=Fillydelphia
Baltimore= Baltimare

Seattle=??? ( Seaddle? or something?)
Portland= ??? (ummm, not much is coming. Trotland? Pintoland?)
