LOL! Sure, I'd be both grateful and delighted to have a pony version of myself. Name the pony Aristotle perhaps (my full first name), to have a thematic connection with philosophy and proto-science. :-)
What do you need, description/photo? (It's getting late over here, so I'll probably respond back tomorrow)
Thanks in advance!
I need to know how to style the mane and tail; the desired "cutie mark" (the little design on the flank); whether you want to be a pegasus, unicorn, or "earth pony" (I made myself a pegasus unicorn because I'm just greedy but that appears to be restricted to the princesses in canon); what colors everything should be; and any other added features you want on your pony (e.g. I gave MBlume's pony a little goaty beard). If you don't have strong opinions about any of these features you can leave it up to my creative discretion within the theme.
Thought for a moment that this was a typo then realized it wasn't. :-)
It seems restricted to god tier characters in the canon, and always accompanied with a more adult look...
Nah, the de-deified Luna lost the adult look (and seemingly the powers) but maintained the wings and horn. I think Lauren faust said we'll see her again in Season 2 -- I wonder if we'll ever get a story about how they achieved their god-tier level.
Hmm. Let's go for a natural look. A brown Earth pony with short blondish mane, male. Wears glasses, somewhat rectangl-y ones (you can see another cartoonish version of them at http://www.livejournal.com/allpics.bml?user=katsaris ). For a cutie mark, a closed book with a symbol of silver pegasus wings on its cover. The idea expressed being he likes to write/read/imagine about the capabilities he doesn't have.
The name "Aristotle" doesn't fit as well now with the other ponies' names, so go with Elfwhinny. (which is a pun on Tolkien's Aelfwine)
If I left anything out, feel free to embellish. :-)
Thanks again!
In case you didn't see the Batch 2 Ponies comment, Elfwhinny is done.
Edit: Dammit, forgot the glasses. Editing them in now.
Edit2: Glasses on.
Thank you!
I'll add this to my next batch. (Unless you have comments on the mane & tail styling beyond "short"?)
LOL, I thought I was being way too specific and demanding. :-)
No, I don't have any preference for the tail styling, nor anything more specific than "short" for the styling of the mane.
