Custom MLP - Nocturne

Description

A custom My Little Pony made for Bumblesweet [link] of dA. I was given a written description for this pony, so I had some leeway with the design. Her body, hair, and symbol colors were given by the commissioner, as well as a basic description of the symbol design (crescent moon flanked by stars that are also eighth notes), but the execution was up to me - thus making this a more fun basic pony than I normally get to play with.

I came up with her cutie mark (the small eighth note star on her hoof), and tossed in the star under her left eye because I really like how pony's look with theme-specific 'beauty marks' as it were. I made her eyes magenta to match the hair color I was given and added a silver streak to balance out her symbol. Of course, I got the hair AFTER I painted the eyes, so the color doesn't match perfectly. XP

Her hair was an interesting thing: when I ordered it from my supplier, who is made of awesome btw, I thought the darker color was a lot more purple than it turned out to be. She was supposed to have magenta hair with purple streaks, but instead has bright magenta hair with dark magenta streaks. Personally, I think it looks grand, and really want to do this to a pony for myself. It's clearer when her mane isn't braided, but the braids-for-transport looked too cute to take out for photos.

She proudly wears the second uni horn I have ever made, and due to my on-going obsession with pearlizing medium, it's even a little shiny too.

That is some of the loveliest colored hair I've ever seen. X3 You make me want to make more ponies, but I barely have time to draw.
