#fluttershy is the one I’m most eh about I think I should’ve done a layer of white under her coat idk

horse girl era

inspo (along with other Reddit posts and a stupid amount of horse research)

Rarity and Sweetie Belle as grey lipizzans mostly because I thought it was cool that they’re born black and turn white as they get older, and they seem fancy and elegant and I think it suits them. I imagine sweetie belle would be a pale dapple grey when she gets older.

Pinkie Pie as a Romani cob/haflinger cross (which I misspelled on the image oops) because I wanted her to have some resemblance to applejack because they’re related, but I also thought she should be pony-ish with a fluffy mane and tail and slightly off putting pale blue eyes. also bc of friendship is witchcraft.

fluttershy as palomino selle francais because I had to keep her buttery yellow color and because “French haute couture please”. and I think having her as a gaited walking horse is a good counterpoint to rainbow as a race horse.

Applejack and apple bloom as Appaloosa draft crosses bc I couldn’t decide between Appaloosa patterns (and puns) and that sturdy draft build

Rainbow dash as a thoroughbred (which I also misspelled. damn.) bc fast. and dapple because it looks like rain and clouds

Scootaloo as a red dun quarter horse because they’re not as fast as thoroughbreds or other race horses but they’re popular for barrel racing and western trick stuff, which suits her scooter stunts I think. Also I couldn’t not have a quarter horse in the mix.

Twilight as a bay Arabian because they’re fancy/aristocratic. I also thought about barb or Andalusian but I couldn’t resist the distinctive silhouette
