Description A tribute to the mane 6 ponies plus celestia. The method of coloring was roughly: body color>cutie mark main color>cutie mark secondary color>mane color>eye color. Some variation to that though, I started with rainbow dash first and never got her cutie mark colors in. Then for most of the others I had to use body and mane outline colors to fill in the gap between mane and eye color. Then I did not have enough room for all of celestia's colors.

So lots of little things to tweak next time

Abstract symbolism.

Devoted to understand for the rest of the empty set of colors ...

Thanks. I wanted to take a look at what makes the characters great, so I started with their primary colors and put them together.

Thanks At first I tried outlines that matched the characters, but since I had to use the outline colors earlier I decided on just a thick black outline.

The black works really well. Have you considered putting an abstract/cubic cutie mark in the center of each pane? This is excellent as it is, but I could see adding a cutie mark to make it more complex.

I could have also done their elementals of harmony shapes instead of cutie marks, I might try that later. I also have to decide what to put on the second image for spike and discord, considering they don't have cutie marks. I'm a fan of the big blue gem spike gets from rarity, it plays a big part in a image i'm working on For discord... hmm.
