Description I'm experimenting a bit with alternate hairstyles.

Here, we have Adagio starting over with a new life and a new line of work. And what if this was her "natural" hair, and the cheese-poof was just for show? 

In my head-canon, she loves fine clothing and expensive wines, so if/when she finally comes around to understanding friendship and looking for a new purpose in life, why not get something going with Rarity at her boutique? Though, of course, she'd never be able to fully shed that prideful snark. Hence her expression here.

Inspired by Adagio's time as "Ballad" from www.fimfiction.net/story/22747… by  .

I chose the natural hair color here to match her show-accurate eyebrow color.

What if this is just a disguise to hide from the mane 6 while she plans her revenge? I think she would take singing lessons and work as a lounge singer at a night club.

Ah, yep. And that was her goal, to an extent, with this change in style.

if you ever have the time or ideas, would you do Aria and Sonata? I imagine Sonata being just either homeless or a taco stand person :3

SkycatcherEquestria In reply to TMNTBashuryoutube [2015-05-02 08:00:31 +0000 UTC]

I hope to. Just a matter of time and ideas. In my mind, they still live together (and have a rather nice rented house somewhere, or such). You'd have to imagine after so long influencing people that someone with Adagio's savvy would have a pretty big stockpile of either hoarded or invested wealth.

That's what I was going for, thanks.

Still the same expression and eye color from the show though - so she's under there somewhere.

Yes, hopefully she won't go half siren/glowing red eyes/hypnotize the crowd on us again, it was creepy enough once.

LTRM35A2 [2015-03-27 05:28:43 +0000 UTC]

Wow, she looks so different, and at the same time, you can kinda still see that streak of deviousness running through her.  And yet, even with the subdued sneering, she seems so much more approachable with the comparatively normal "Street" dress and haircut that she did as a dazzling.  I like it.

ZCid47 [2015-03-14 11:58:09 +0000 UTC]

I have mixed feelings about that hair, she looks good no doubt, but the long fluffy hair is so dagi.
The only bad thing is that nobody seems to have written a fan fiction with your idea

Daniel-Gleebits [2015-03-12 17:13:17 +0000 UTC]

I have to say, it's frightening how professional she looks like this. I'll be honest, the enormous hair put me off at first until it grew on me a little, but I like this visual of her.

And if anyone wants try to think of her in the story, just try to imagine there's an angry woman behind her who bears an uncanny resemblance to Granny Smith

SkycatcherEquestria In reply to Daniel-Gleebits [2015-03-13 03:46:09 +0000 UTC]

Glad you like. And are you talking about "the poof" at first?
Funny thing about enormous proportions too - when you really look closely at the head vs the rest of the body on a show-accurate proportioned EG like this, it does start to look a bit odd in some respects. Still cute overload though.

In my head, I pictured auntie Needle as more of a mid 50's thin librarian type. But goes to show how imagination works with different folks.

Daniel-Gleebits In reply to SkycatcherEquestria [2015-03-14 05:34:28 +0000 UTC]

Well I never did actually show aunt Needle in the story, so she is open to interpretation. I like the idea of her being a librarian type though, it hadn't occurred to me before. I just couldn't imagine an Apple Family librarian I guess XD

Well you can say that about a lot of drawing styles in cartoons. Exaguration is the order of the day after all.

SkycatcherEquestria In reply to MilkImmense [2015-03-12 15:52:21 +0000 UTC]

That's sort of what she was going for here, though, in this little picture-story -- looking like a completely different person as a way to move on from what happened at the end of the movie.

I have an idea for Aria, but not quite as drastic as Adagio here. Will have to give some thought for Sonata's.
