Hello friends!

I used to have a ponysona years ago when I first watched MLP:FiM. I'm a completely different person now and wanted to take a shot at designing a new one. My old one was just a pink pegasus with my hair and my glasses, and I wanted to have some more fun with this one! Simple ponysonas are great, but I liked the idea of taking full advantage of the creativity and "magical"-ness of MLP.

So here they are - sorry for the grainy image quality, my phone camera isn't the best.



And here's a doodle of their symbol that I threw together in MS Paint just so that you could actually see it, lol. I had a hard time making it visible on the paper drawing.

My old ponysona had a looseleaf paper and a pencil as their symbol, because I love to draw. I wanted to keep that aspect, but ditched the paper for a more ambiguous magical cloud. I think the new one nicely represents creativity, which is really important to me! I can also explain the nose stars... lol. I got both my nostrils pierced near the end of last year, and thought putting stars in that area would be a cute nod to that.

I had a lot of fun drawing this character up! Thanks for taking a look at them :satisfied:
 
They look beautiful. I don’t know what they looked like before but I’m loving their updo. ;)

I too have been thinking about doing some tweaking with Skybreeze. I always struggle with symbols on ponies, Skybreeze was also moulded after G4 so I figured her “job” was to paint on patterns onto butterflies. So I did a big but basic butterfly with musical bar trailing behind it as if a note on a summer breeze. ;) But I’m kinda bored with her symbol now.

Thank you! I agree with @Tak, sometimes really getting a design down can take a while. And even if you like it in the moment, the design can change over time. If you ever get around to changing up your own ponysona I'd love to see what you come up with!

I like the star nose, the different eyes, the poof, and your ears.

Thanks! It's a bit different than ponies I usually draw but I'm happy with how it came out :satisfied:
