Would you mind sharing a couple tips and tricks for designing pony versions of other fandom characters? I'm wanting to do it for a couple fandoms I'm in, but I'm struggling to come up with designs I like/feel like the character

Of course! I think the starting point for making pony versions of fandom characters should be to simplify a character down to their basics--that is, their hair color/style and their 'defining' color, which will act as the coat color. I tend to veer away from using skin tones as the coat color as much as possible because it always looks (to me!) that the pony has been shaved or is just human skin-textured LOL

A majority of the time, characters will be associated with a 'defining' color, typically reflected in their clothes or even personality. If you're struggling to find colors for a character with a simple design (or maybe just a character that wears the same uniform as everyone else in your chosen media) I recommend using color psychology matching their personality! For example, a hot-tempered character would have a red coat, a cheerful character would have yellow, etc.

You want to keep things very simple, color-wise. Four colors, maximum! Think about the color schemes of characters in MLP:FIM; Fluttershy has yellow, pink, and turquoise, Pinkie Pie has pink, darker pink, yellow, and blue, etc. Their colors rarely get more complicated that that!

Finally, if you want to do markings, keep those simple, as well, referencing real horse coat patterns to give you an idea of what looks 'natural' for a pony. Cutie marks are a whole other ball-game and I'm not the best at those so you might need to ask someone else LOL

I hope this is helpful!

I still wanna make this into a real thing…

It’s the same damn face! 😂

DMcIntyreWWE: I believe…

Kaiba goes to meet Ishizu for the first time and finds out she's the one whose been helping Red Beetle by lending out other Miraculous' to other people. She then gives Kaiba two of them (The Dragon and Rabbit) and explains he'll know what to do with them when the time comes. Kaiba's not swayed by her story at first but once she starts talking about the origin of Duel Monsters he starts to listen.

More self-indulgent Warrior cats/MDZS content! WWX/Crowcall and the Juniors/apprentices…Lan Sizhui is Mistpaw, Jin Ling is Orchidpaw, and Lan Jingyi is Jaypaw! 🐈🐈🐈

Second slide is Jin Ling/Orchidpaw getting yelled at by his uncle Jiang Cheng/Nightstorm… poor little guy

Drawing cats is soooo fun 😗
