Description Alrighty, SO! Here is the next gen that I talked about, six brand new OCs, some with little siblings and other friends that I have to make too but I will start weeding some out and making a sorty for some of them here soon but for now their a bunch of pretty faces lol

first off, the 'leader' of this herd

Evening Star - son of Twilight Sparkle and Flash Sentry
A fairly serious soldier stallion who joined the royal guard and shot up the ranks at a young age, enspired by his uncle Shining Armor and father, he deticated his life to protecting the heirs to Celestia and Luna (whom I shall draw soon) he seems to be all work and no play, but when he gets a few days off, his childlike side comes out. He is very passionate about everything he does and is willing to give anything to protect his friends and family. He was never one for magic like his mother, he learned mostly combat spells from the royal guard growing up, the only thing that he really picked up from his mother's magic lessons that he got up until age 16 when he went off to training to be a guard, was protection spells and the teleportation spell that she is able to do, He is close to his father, him and his mother have their differences but they care about one another of course. But he isn't as close to her really. 

Second in command:
Honeycrisp - son of Soarin and Applejack
Very hometown and family oriented kind of guy, he basicly adopts all his friends in as family, all as younger siblings in his eyes even if they happen to be a bit older. He is only just a bit younger than Evening Star but takes the size from his uncle Big Mac so everypony thinks he is the oldest. And despite having wings, he has the bone structure of an earth pony, that being the dominant species in the Apple family after all, therefore making him too heavy to fly. But he uses his wings to make larger jumps than the rest of his family is able to do and he is able to leap a bit higher with his wings but he cannot fly. But that doesn't hold this bull-headed contry boy back. He is very set in his ways and once a decision is made, he will not change his mind. He's a lot like his mother in that way. %n
third%Cn
third in this herd (hah that rhymed)

Neolpolitian Swirl - son of Pinkie Pie and Cheese Sandwich

this fimilar face is what you would expect from a spawn of the two most super duper party ponies in Equestria. Neo is a happy go lucky guy is always smiles and laughs, always tries to make others around him smile as well and he is successful about 90% of the time, he can even get Star to relax and laugh and that is no easy feat. Guy is as emotionless as his aunt Maud. His special talent is planning the most epic surprise parties that any one had ever seen(fun fact: his orignal name was in fact Surprise party but I scrapped that once i started coloring him and all and remembered that Pinkie had some genetics for a white mane in her as well from her family so i made him like this) Like his mother, he somehow defies all laws of logic and can do whatever he wants whenever with the help of magic in which he usually only uses when planning parties but he is guilty of rainbow-fying his family when bored. He and his father love to go around and play music and his mother and him bake quite often but he just loves crafting party favors more than anything, he is the link most of the time for his parents parties, working them both in most of the time and letting them be a part of things. Neo and his mother have a friendly rivalry however, with who can be the better baker and 9 times out of 10 cake batter gets everywhere, even in the ceiling where nopony has any idea how it gets up there.

Fourth down

Ambrosia Apple - daughter of Fluttershy and Big Mac

Sweet and gentle Ambrosia, she gets a lot of her temperment from her mother but the laid back personality of her father is there as well. Opposite of her cousin, she inhereted the light bones of a pegasus and therefore she is a bit more fragile than him, but she is just as stubborn. She is often found out bucking apples for baking or running and herding sheep and whatnot, she is always on the move and loves high places, loves the views that it gives and wishes that she could be a pegasus but has never spoken up about that. Like her mother, she has lots of fears but has a major love for smaller animals and takes care of as many things that she can, but her true calling is to apples like to be expected from her fathers side of the family. Shr is an extremely hard worker and most of the time pushes herself until she passes out, scaring the feathers off her mother but her father is used to it and just brings her right back home and makes sure that she is back up to speed before letting her out again. She is quite the free spirit.

fifth down the line
Amethyst Glimmer - Daughter of Spike thand Rarity

Much to be expected from the daughter or Rarity, she is quite prim and proper, loves the world of design however, she has quite the temper and a stubborn streak for days, blamed on the dragon genetics. She is quite territorial of her boutique/ jewelery shop that she opened up as an extention of her mothers own shop where she works with jewels that she finds on her own. Her talent mainly centers around jewels that she finds, much like her mother but, instead of tracking them with magic(which she is able to do but her magic isn't too strong) she more than often sniffs them out, being half dragon and all. She never really devolped the taste to eat gems however, much to the surprise of her father. But the gems that she finds, she often uses her own dragon fire to refine and make them much more beautiful than most ponies can get with simply cutting and polishing. They work together quite often on dresses but she does not stay inside all day and slave over her work. One might think that she would be a sort of punk or rebel to her parents, she never went through that stage. Being the intelligent and rather mature dragon-mare she is, she developed a great respect for her parents at a early age. She and Spike rough-house a lot while she and Rarity do a lot of girly things. Amethyst doesn't care for it so much but she just goes with the flow.

finally the "Awesome" and sixth of the group

Stormy Skies - Son of Rainbow Dash and Thunder Lane

He is extremely similar to his mother in many ways, super competive and has a big enough ego to rival Rainbow's own. And despite being his mother's son, he took a long time to learn how to fly, he took longer than most colts and fillies at his age and his adoptive sister Scootaloo(yes in my canon Rainbow adopted Scoots. And much to the insistance of lol I'll get to work on her later) was afraid that he would never learn to fly like she was unable to do herself(she can glide hover and give herself as well as use her wings as a motor but she unable to soar like most pegasai) but he ended up learning and became almost as good a flyer as his parents are. He is extremely close to his mother, Thunder Lane is just a father figure that his there for him, he never really bonded with him too much. He is majorly stubborn and refuses to give up on anything, which has led to too many accidents that scare all of his friends pretty commonly because he has gotten hospitalized so many times, all they have to say is "Stormy is back" and they get to work. A bit too headstrong for his own good.

My thoughts on each:

Evening Star:   Y U NO LEARN MORE MAGIC!? But, tbh I love his character. The fact that he has a child side while also being very serious most of the time is awesome and really gives him a lot of realism.

Honeycrisp: His parents are an interesting couple. The fact that he is too heavy to fly is a very cool character trait. I love how he is able to easily get over that and make do. Good on him.

Neapolitan Swirl: Very much to be expected from a Cheesepie foal. I just hope that he doesn't end up destroying the fourth wall. I'm tired of having to repair it constantl...  NOT AGAIN!!!

Ambrosia Apple: Just like Honeycrisp, I was not expecting a couple like that. I find it interesting that she doesn't have wings but has the bone structure of a Pegasus. That can lead to some interesting experiences down the road.

Amethyst Glimmer: I love how her coat is lavender. I love subtle details, and that is great because lavender is the combination of purple and white (At least I hope that was what you were going for. ). Her traits are also a really nice balance between dragon instincts and Rarity's instincts.

Stormy Skies: I couldn't help but think of the Who's on first base joke that the show made. (www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLMrPt… ) The fact that he constantly gets hospitalized makes me think of athletes irl. That is a nice touch. Also, I can imagine Scoots looking up to him in the same way she does RD (Even though Stormy is probably younger that Scootaloo.)


Overall, I love your character designs. I feel like each of them has something that I can relate to personally, and that is a great thing to be able to do when it comes to character design.
Great job! I look forward to seeing what you make next.
