Sunset Shimmy at a crossroads

The mane six form a rainbow based on their coat colors, but with white instead of green. Would you mind drawing Rarity with a light green coat, darker green mane and tail, and gold eyes/magic/cutie mark to complete the rainbow?

I COMPLETELY AGREE!!! i am SUCH an advocate for rarigreen

[lichenbug]

Something hit me and I decided to draw mlp stuff again

Starlight and Trixie 🌙⭐️

Human versions of them with an early 1900s twist I made for fun while rewatching the series with @bixels !

These are a little out of place with my usual work so I’ll probably only have them on tumblr and my priv insta.

Voice actors are NOT the same as actors.

It takes a specific kind of skill-set and training to be able to warp and meld the voice. It takes a certain kind of talent and dedication to hone that talent into the ability to meld the voice and invoke emotion with one's voice alone. Actors are used to using their voice secondarily to their body language and their facial expressions. It's all mirrored back on camera. They do have nuance. But it's a different kind of nuance and a different kind of training to produce that nuance.

Voice actors might get their likeness transposed on their character's design, and maybe their mannerisms might seep into the character's animation. But when it's all said and done: their presence is in their voice. They are bringing a character to life, showing that emotion in their voice, trying to keep a specific accent, drawl, pitch, tone in that voice and keep it consistent for their recording sessions.

The voice actor is like a classically trained musician who can play first chair in a competitive, world-renown orchestra. The actor (who fills the voice actor's role) is like a moot who played violin in beginner and intermediate high school orchestra and thinks they can get into Juilliard with that 2-4 years of experience.

This doesn't mean that the HS orchestra moot can't play. They can even be really good at it. Maybe they won competitions and sat first chair. But they are not in the same league as the person who's been training their whole lives and lives and breathes to hone their craft using the instrument and all of the training they've ever acquired to perfect it. They are not meant for the same roles. They are not in the same caliber. You do not hire the HS equivalent when you want to play complex music in a competitive orchestra.

Actors are not the same as voice actors.

And furthermore, actors - especially big name actors - taking the roles of animated characters for big budget films or TV pilots makes no sense anyways when - at least in the case of TV pilots - there's not a point to hiring a big budget actors anyways. That money could be used elsewhere (like paying your animators), and the talent that is brought onto the screen for X character could then be hired on to voice said character no recasting required.

I wouldn't say voice acting as a profession is in danger exactly, but it's certainly being disrespected and overlooked for celebrity clout, and this has ALWAYS been an issue. Shoot, even Robin Williams knew that much - which is why he tried so hard not to be used as a marketing chess piece for Aladdin and got royally pissed off when it happened anyways. People shouldn't go to any movie (but especially not animated films) because "oh famous actor is in it". People should go because it's a good movie and the voice acting is good.

People who honest to god think that voice actors are replaceable because "oh well anyone can voice act" or "I like xyz celebrity so naturally it'll be good" ... Honestly I just wish you'd reassess your priorities because you're missing the point and are part of the problem.

Voice Actors ≠ Actors.

My take on a human Fluttershy in a college au type of setting

-> is studying to be a veterinarian; met the twilight twins and rarity on some of their shared classes

-> used to be best friends with Rainbow Dash until her family had to move to a different town; despite everything, she watched every competition Rainbow had. but was too shy to reach out

-> after starting university, she stumbled upon the Sweet Apple Acres, where a cow had been injured. While trying to help the cow, AJ found her as she was looking for the cow in question, they became fast friends from there on

-> is living currently in a small cottage like house provided to her by the Apple family in exchange of regular animal checkups (they just like her tbh)

-> is estranged from her family, but still tries to keep in touch with them, but is too afraid to open up to them

-> met Pinkie through Applejack, since they are cousins; absolutely adores Pinkie's pet gecko, Gummy

-> sometimes helps out on the farm when her studies let her

-> has insomnia and is mostly nocturnal; studies a lot during the night and has a tea addiction (for the caffeine mostly). doesn't like coffee

-> is demisexual and panromantic (with some genderqueer sprinkled in cause why not) (one of the reasons she's afraid to let her own family in)

-> only managed to open up to AJ about her past and feelings (she had to ply them out of her tho)

-> kinda needs therapy...

-> hopeless romantic
