The votes are in*, and our second contest theme is: Previous Generations of My Little Pony in MLP:FiM style!

As you all probably know, Lauren Faust used to watch the original My Little Pony cartoon, and making up stories for her own toys to act resulted, years later, in the tv series we all know and love. Now I hear some bronies don't like the older generation, but that's just silly. Even if you dislike the shows, you can't deny the designs are often adorable. With this contest, we're gonna give a little respect to our elders and re-invent ponies from previous generations!

Note: Some characters have already been "recycled" from older generation, for example Applejack and Rainbow Dash. Applejack's design is almost exactly the same, but Rainbow Dash is very different (and had a completely opposite personality). Then there's Fluttershy, who evolved from a differently named but similar-looking earth pony, Posey. It's a judgement call if you want to make one of these ponies, but it's probably best to go for the really cool, more obscure ponies rather than just stick a few more apples on AJ's rump.

Sea Ponies, Breezies, Flutter Ponies, and Pony Friends can also count!


If you're not familiar with the previous generations, check out My Little Wiki: mylittlewiki.org/wiki/Main_Pag…
Browse around until you see a design that appeals to you - there are tons to choose from.
You can also look up the movies and older versions on youtube.


The contest ends JULY 20th 2012 which gives you a little over a month to get sewing!

Since crossover characters only lost by a narrow margin, that will probably be the theme of the next contest
