Description Here's the entire group. This picture inspired by a group vector of the Mane 6 with the elements done by ~Ryoki-Fureaokibi .

I can already hear the protests, heh, so I'll address 'em now:
(1) Yeah, I have only 1 pegasus and 3 Earth ponies here, so there isn't a perfect race balance. The alternative was to boot Dr. Whooves and stick Raindrops in here, but Rainy is nowhere near as popular a BG pony.
(2) Derpy has the Big Crown Thingy, yet she isn't a unicorn? Well, we don't know how the magic for the Elements of Harmony works, maybe it doesn't even require a unicorn to wield it. *shrug* Also, muffins are magic, so that should be a good enough explanation on its own.

As to the names of the respective elements, feel free to think some up. Here are my suggestions:

Dr. Whooves/Time Turner: Compassion
Lyra Heartstrings: Melody
Derpy Hooves/Ditzy Doo: Joy
Octavia: Integrity
Vinyl Scratch: Er . . . wubs?
Bon Bon: Sweetness

Feel free to leave your own ideas though!

Edit: Someone pointed out the colors were not 100% show-accurate. Colors tweaked/updated.

Yes, YES!

Dude, yes! All my favorite background ponies having elements.

Though....I can see Doc as having compassion, but wouldn't his element also be a big blue police barn of sorts? *HIT*

looks like background character colours are milder to create stronger focus on the actual main cast via light and shadow ratio

Vinyl Scratch: Element of Integrity
Also, the good Doctor has been spotted with wings from time to time.

This just proves Bonbon's cutie mark is not bonbons but bowties.
And I guess Time Turner's cutie mark is a vertical bowtie?

I love how it works out so that Doctor Whooves' hourglass is like a sideways bow tie (becuase bow ties are cool and all that ).

How about Vinyl Scratch be the element of Rhythm?

Gensylph In reply to Gensylph [2013-04-14 03:54:31 +0000 UTC]

Derpy, hmm. Joy is more like an emotion than a condition, so perhaps Enthusiasm?

The difference between Melody and Rhythm - Lyra plays her own tune, and encourages others to do the same; Vinyl's 'rhythmic beats' supports and grounds other ponies; she keeps the paces and helps others do the same with themselves and life and not panic or fret? 'No worries'.

You could've made Dr. Whooves a Pegasus, because he's been seen as such before, if you feel the "evened out" thing is that important, but I disagree. I think it's perfect the way it is. <3

jaybugjimmies In reply to Insane-Furrets [2013-04-14 00:55:31 +0000 UTC]

That's true. I debated a long time over whether to do bubbles or be silly and do a muffin. Silliness won out, largely because the gemstone muffin looked more impressive than the simple shapes of some bubbles. I did put some blue gem bubbles on the tiara as a sort of compromise.

I thought that the blue bobbles on the tiara counted as the cutie mark, that makes sense to me anyways. XD
