here's those two soarindash kiddos I was talking about!! i don't like soarindash anymore and haven't for like the past 7 years but mann these two were my first next gen ocs, they are my babies!! idk if I'm gonna squeeze them into my verse or not but I still love them and I updated their designs for funsies!!

here we got thunder skies (named after his daddy soarin' skies ofc) he's aggressive and bold, and is fighting to uphold his parent's legacies by being a wonderbolt himself. but his true talent lies in manipulating the weather and making flashy patterns in the sky, so he isn't very happy about his cutie mark which he deems girly/kiddish. but really he IS passionate about his artistic talents and with a little encouragement, he learns to tone down his competitive nature and instead uses his skills to create eye-catching visuals at wonderbolt shows!

and his younger sister, sunny side up! she's very bubbly and optimistic, and tries to make friends with everyone! she's big on teamwork and is very passionate about her role as a cheerleader, where her talent of being uplifting and inspirational really shines through! despite their personalities being polar opposites, her and thunder are very close and she's the one who really encouraged him to follow his artistic passions.

so yeahh I love these guys sm, i would lovee to keep them around some way or another despite the soarindash aspect 😅💗💗

"you can't buy happiness, but you can buy tea and that's basically the same thing!"

pumpkinella spice pie, but preferably called "pumpkin" by all, is the eldest daughter of pinkie pie and cheese sandwich. she has a close relationship with her parents, despite some...recent familial issues.

pumpkin, like her parents, is big on smiles, fun, and happiness! she concentrates this into providing natural remedies and potions to the ponies of ponyville. she studied under zecora, whom taught her all the things she needs to know. she has a teashop not too far from the bakery, where she spends most of her day.

as the oldest, she has given herself the role of fun older sister! she is close to her little brother, neapolitan sweets sandwich. with his "losing his curl" and everything, pumpkin often tries to take neo off of her parent's hands and spend time with him.

----

i'll hopefully be adding some more to her bio soon!

Oh gosh I think I’m deep in the mlp obsession now 🫥

I’ve hesitantly dubbed this next gen verse ‘Incipient!verse’, and to start it off have a twipie kiddo! 

I plant to make a secondary blog later to properly house and upload future next!gen so don’t worry abt my flooding your feed with too much more pony content :)

her info below 💝

Name: Saccharine Artifice Age: Indeterminate Parents: Pinkie Pie x Twilight Sparkle

Pronouns: She/Her Gender: Cis Female

Race: Alicorn x Earthpony Build: Short and stocky, with an odd mixture of unicorn, Pegasus, and earthpony traits.  Voiceclaim: Allyn Rachel (‘Bee’ in Bee and Puppycat)

Talent: stratagem/logistics

Description: Saccharine Artifice is rarely bested in matters which necessitate strategy or cunning, with a mind umatched in regards to tactical thought. She most especially has a knack for reading the ponies around her, seemingly always one step ahead in a, usually, one sided game of wits. Unfortunately, This means she’s really rather quite bored half the time, which in turn ensures that the other half is spent eagerly searching for an enticing enough challenge. 

Still, Saccharine is, at her core, an extroverted pony with an, albeit overwhelming, emotional intensity and unforgettable presence. She sees little to no issue asking others uncomfortable, or even inappropriate, questions, either in a misguided attempt at making friends or to satiate her own curiosity, and has no concept of small talk unless it’s part of some elaborate plan.

With very little interest in her role as her mothers’ successor, bored to bits just by the very idea, Saccharine avoids her duties like the plague. She resents her position deeply, and this has caused a large rift between herself and Twilight.

Saccharine has a few odd quirks, both magical and physical. She possess an amount of control over magic that is wholly unheard of in any race outside of unicorns or alicorns, and was born with a few glaringly obvious ‘mutations’.  While Saccharine typically maintains a purely pony-like appearance, she only rarely hides her teeth, which are much sharper than usual. 

After much research, it was discovered that this is all due to pinkie pie’s brief stint with discord’s magic, which has left her with an incredibly abnormal amount of chaotic magic even after its removal. This magic seems to have had interesting effects on Saccharine, the full breadth of which is still left to be discovered.

baby brother, what have you become?

[wishuponastarapple]

Consistent style? Wheres the fun in that?

[wishuponastarapple]

Introducing some of my nextgen ponies! I made them back in 2018 and these were drawn back in 2022. Newer art is in progress ^^

Turning Gear: Inventor with some impressive magical abilities. He is intelligent but the most awkward guy you'll ever meet. He is curious and together with Time Twister he often get into trouble. Starlight has tried and failed to tame his bird's nest of a mane but to no avail.

Classic Remix: A radio host on the shyer side. She feels safe sitting behind a mic but is more withdrawn in public. She likes to dye her mane to add a splash of color to her otherwise gray appearance. Remix has a great singing voice but is too shy to sing for a crowd. She got her cm for specializing on remixing classical music, something she came to love due to her moms' frequent collabs. She shares her music on her radio show.

Lightshow: Expert at creating light shows with her magic. She works as a light “technician” of sorts on live performances. Lately she has been helping Honeycrisp Melody out on her tour. Lightshow is enthusiastic, determined and competitive. One of her favorite things to do is play hoofball with her best friend Fastlegs.

Fastlegs: Sports coach for foals of all ages. Advocates for inclusion and love to teach. He lost his left wing to cancer and had a hard time coming to terms with his new life being flightless. He is the kindest most genuine stallion around. To feel more at ease Fastlegs moved to Ponyville to be closer to his best friend Lightshow and get away from all the expectations he felt back in Cloudsdale.

Honeycrisp Melody: Country singer with a heart of gold. She is a true Apple and loves to help around the farm whenever she can. She is optimistic, excitable and social. She loves to brawl with her cousin Candid Apple and guest star on Classic Remix's radio show. Melody is rather short and unlike most Apples, not as sturdy in her build. She inherited her pegasi traits from Rara's side of the family.

Blazing Hooves: Dedicated firefighter. He is highly empathic and takes his job very seriously. Blaze can be somewhat of a party pooper due to his dedication but his baby sister can usually make him ease up a bit. He wanted to become a firefighter as a colt after his family home burned down and his sister lost one of her legs in the fire.

Time Twister: Time traveler…?👀 She is sassy and confident, as well as dramatic and a smartass. She loves to create just enough of a chaos to stay entertained in her day to day life. One of her favorite pastimes is giving magical items to Gear to tinker with. The occasional explosion is the highlight of her day.

Princess Theory: An elegant and dutiful draconequus with a knack for getting into wacky situations. She loves to pull pranks and be generally annoying. Theory has a pretty dark sense of humor but just like her father she is very charming in her ways. Her parents have passed some impressive magical abilities down to her but her favorite trick is to teleport. She has ADHD.

Candid Apple: Works on Apple Acres. He is talkative, kind, family orientated and has a severe sweet tooth. Candid loves to bake apple treats when he isn’t working the land. His favorite cousin is Melody whom he grew up with on the farm.

Zerina: Librarian for the royal family. She is kind of messy and forgetful outside of work but she's incredibly sweet. She’s humble and generous. Zerina is autistic and her special interest is Equestrian history. Due to her expertise she got the job as the head librarian in the royal library where she can study all the archived materials as she pleases. She is a close friend of princess Theory whom happens to be neurodivergent herself.

Rockslide Pie: Rodeo performer. He is clumsy, silly and tends to fumble on his words. He is bold in his performances.. There is nothing he likes more than to entertain and make others laugh, something he got to discover through his aunty Pinkie.

Not pictured:

Snow Quartz: Artist specializing on ice sculptures. She is the younger sister of Blazing Hooves but unlike her big brother she is calm and relaxed most of the time. She is spontaneous and easygoing. She's witty around her brother and likes to joke with him (on his expense). Her missing leg doesn’t bother her at all.

Mamas little helper <3

Applejack and Apple Spice, her daughter, picking apples together. I haven't made a character reference sheet for her yet I just ran across this sketch in my sketchbook and decided to make a final version. If you couldn't tell apple spice is from apple dash. I also didn't draw Apple Jacks hat simply because I forgot and just noticed :D (got the background from google)

[wishuponastarapple]

one of the rarepairs from my next gen au. I have become soooo obsessed with these two. Their daughter is one of my favorite fankids I've designed so far. They are so in love. I just love them.

also, I decided while drawing this that applejack grew out her tail until their baby was born.

Character Guides (Pt. 1) - Canterlot

Made a bunch of these quick references for my nextgen ocs. Will be posting the rest this week.

Since these turned out so fast to make, I will also make pages for the older version of the mane six, the student six, and any other characters that you can send letters to.

finally finished my base edit of my redesigns of the MLP princesses! base credit goes to sleepymoss on dA. i've been having a very hard time drawing lately, and base edits help a lot with helping me still draw while not requiring too much energy. regardless, this still took a while.

some headcanons below the cut!

each of the princesses have the colors of their eyes and some aspect of their designs influenced by major events in their life.

for cadance, this was repairing the crystal heart and saving the crystal empire from sombra (with the help of twilight, of course). this granted her the blue hue to her wings and eyes, and the blue streaks in her hair.

for twilight, this was at the same moment she became an alicorn after unlocking her true power when it came to magic; her colors were pink and orange!

for luna, she gained her silvery and blue colors when she returned to equestria and rebuilt her bond with her sister, celestia. her starry hair shifts colors and brightness based mostly on her emotions and what she's doing. during a solar eclipse, her hair is completely white and leaves a trail of shimmering dust behind her when she walks and flies. when the princesses' magic was taken by the storm king and tirek, her hair turned to just deep blue-black hair.

for celestia, this was the moment she used the elements of harmony to banish luna to the moon. she took some of the elements' power within herself, and that power just grew in the time she was raising the sun and moon on her own. this power manifests in the outer 'aura' of color in her hair, which shifts and changes color according to the time of day. her true hair is the pink and orange inner layer. when her magic was taken, the outer layer disappeared entirely, and she felt almost naked without it.

this is how they will be appearing in my next gen, as well! some aspects of their designs have been changed to fit the show style of the base, though, but i will keep those aspects a surprise <3

next up will be the mane 6 i think! probably another base edit tbh...

Pie's family redesigns + Family tree

Original posts, info and links down below

Maud "Slate" Pie + Mudbriar "Walnut"

Maud "Slate" Pie I've kept Maud mostly the same all over, her pallet and color scheme are already good in my taste. She now has spots to match Pinkie but also as a hint to her special talent, as I wanted it to look like an opened geode. I didn't like that her cutie mark was only just a rock, it didn't say a single thing about her special talent. Now it says a bit more, showing off that she can find true beauty under what others might just see as a rock.

She wears her normal dress, as I didn't see a reason to change it. I've however added a small bracelet, which has different beads, to represent her sisters. As she might not show or say it much but she loves them all dearly.

Mudbriar "Walnut" I've darkened his pallet a little, more so his overall design didn't end up too light or dark. I've given him cloven hooves and a long tail, as I see him from a family of mixed unicorn and earth ponies. His markings are like branches/roots of trees, showing his connection to the trees. Same story for his cutie mark as Maud's, it was too simple for what his special talent is. So I've added a book but it's standing by its opening, as a small hint to tents, as he travels to examine trees, learning about as many as he can and writing it down for others to read.

Mudbriar now wears a travel backpack, which is for his travels. He doesn't wear much else, as he doesn't see the need to.

Gilda "Glory" + "Shady" Limestone Pie

Gilda"Glory" I've darkened her whole pallet and added some markings. As she's a mountain lion + tiger in this AU. Her design hasn't been changed much, I've added some jewelry but not much else.

"Shady"Limestone Pie Limestone's pallet is mostly the same, its his patterns that darken his look. Lime is trans in my AU, as his anger issues were caused by him not feeling whole/as he should be. His cutie mark has been changed to a broken opened geode, with lime-green stone, which resembles a lime.

He has a few pricings and wears a his band's t-shirt, which says ROAD KILL, Gilda also has one but she mostly wears it to his concerts, showing her support.

 Trouble Shoes + Marble "Droplet" Pie

Trouble Shoes I've made Trouble Shoes slightly darker and added a few lighter strips to his mane and tail. He also now has a beard, which to those who don't know him, makes him look even more scary than before. For his cutie mark I wanted something more than just "bad luck". He of course still struggled to find out what he was meant to do, as he thought the clown nose and wig was some cruel joke the world did to him.

As for his clothing, I went with a nice jacket, kept his hat and his weeding ring.

Marble"Droplet"Pie Marble's pallet has mostly stayed the same, only receiving slight changes and the usual markings that come along with my redesigns. Her cutie mark now shows off how well she makes jewelry with the beautiful gems they find in Appleloosa. To me, her cutie mark never told a single thing about what she was to do, it said marble but what else? So now, she's a crystal collector and seller.

The clothing she wears is a simple shawl, her weeding ring, a few earrings, a few flowers from her middle oldest son, a sun anklet to represent her oldest son and a small bat wing hair tie to represent her youngest son.

[wishuponastarapple]

some of the next gens me and @p3terpaan are working on!! these ones are mine, I fucking love all three of them and I can and will kill for them. info under read more!!

EDIT WRONG BLOG my art blog is @beastwhimsy

Scarab Shine is a contemplative pony of little words. xey speak quietly but with certainty, and are quick to come up with solutions to time sensitive problems. xeir cutie mark represents xeir love for insect taxidermy, which xey are very skilled at and passionate about. xey also know a lot about living insects, and are never afraid to pick them up. Scarab's element of harmony is rationality

Cosmo is a flighty yet adventurous half unicorn half draconequus with limited magic allowing it to float as well as perform several basic spells, similar to non-magic talented unicorns abilities. it has a love for gold accessories and can't resist a good treasure hunt. it is very easy to make Cosmo laugh with delight. Cosmo's element of harmony is whimsy

Lovey Dovey is the strange lovechild of the sun princess and a ponyville mailmare, much to the confusion of the entirety of equestria. Lovey is kind, personable, and very attuned to other ponies problems and worries. his cutie mark shows her adeptness at heart-to-hearts. ponies often find themselves opening up to her without really meaning to, and Lovey always has a suggestion for their woes. Lovey Dovey's element of harmony is empathy
