Description
Yaaaaay PONIES.Oh gosh oh gosh, okay. Several things. Firstly:
Hours before I finished working on this, =aeolus06 uploaded a very similar picture (which is extremely lovely and you should go look at it), and so I feel a little bit like a copycat, but I promise this is not so - it is just the siren call of ponies, that's all. In fact, everybody should probably be drawing a similar picture right now, so what exactly is the holdup, you guys?
Secondly, I really have practiced drawing pony ponies instead of people ponies, so hopefully I'll be brave enough to post some of those too, eventually.
Now, about this picture, I should probably apologize. For some reason, my brain thinks 80s/90s fashion is the best thing in the world, as long as it's not being worn by me or by any real person. I was going to dress them in cute contemporary clothes, but I don't know anything about contemporary fashion anyway, so I might as well give them dorky out-of-date outfits as not, right? If you look closely, you will see that Twilight is wearing a snap-band, as well as one of those really cool bright watches I wish you could still buy.
Regarding Rainbow Dash, I haven't done any research at all, so it's entirely possible that I was the only kid who thought knotting your t-shirt at your waist was the height of coolitude, but I'm fairly sure the tie-die was actually a thing in those carefree days of the last millennium.
Pinkie Pie ...P-Pinkie Pie chose her own ensemble.
Rarity makes her own fashion and always has, and Fluttershy would look just as sweet and pretty in a potato sack. I suspect Applejack would also look about the same no matter what the decade. I wish you could see her freckles better.
And that's it. Download if you wish, for increased bigness.

I love how 80s pinkie-pie looks heehee <3 they're all very well done and i think they all do the characters justice. I think pulling off Twilight is kinda difficult (or should I say, difficolt! oh god never again) but you seemed to have nailed her pretty well!

One detail that you've included is they are different heights, like real people would be, I like Rarity's scarf and Pinkie Pie's CIndy Lauper '80s look! They suit the girls well! Good work!

I keep looking at pinkie pie and all I can think is Jem from Jem and the holograms probably because of your eighties fascination XD

Excellent! I always thought Pinkie Pie would perfectly fit the 80s look, and now I can say I was right. She looks so at home in those clothes. Twilight Sparkle's hair is just plain marvellous, I can't stress how much I love the shape of her haircut. I'm also adoring Fluttershy's sunny yellow gumboots - they seem so in character for her somehow. Great work on all of their expressions too.

I actually am most in love with Pinkie pie's outfit! That's the kind of thing you could wear now actually! minus the uh... green shoes that don't match anything of course

Also, I have a friend who looks a lot like your interpretation of Rainbow Dash, it's so cute.
You have the cutest gallery on DeviantArt, hands down. This picture made me make a really strangely, high pitched noise! Fluttershy looks like she could melt iron with her adorability.

I feel a MASSIVE need to dress up as one or any of them right now thanks to this drawing of the group together. Seriously.

I'm such a nerd for this fashion era, even though I can't put one together to save my life. XD LOVE IT!!
Thus far I've only seen the first two episodes, but I greatly enjoyed them! I think you've caught their personalities perfectly with the outfits you've given them, and I love how you've included their symbols somewhere on each one. :3 And slap-bands and tying knots in shirts were-- I mean, ARE TOTALLY AWESOME! Way to go!! ^_^

I love these!!! Lollin at RD's horrible tiedye gear it's so fine, Twilight looks lovely in some flannel and pants and Fluttershy's pink tights and yellow boot combo works great.

Thanks very much! Coming up with cute (or at least adorably dorky) outfits has got to be why drawing peoplefied ponies is so irresistible. It's like dress-up and pretty pretty ponies all rolled into one.

Awesome! I love the 80s and the 90s actually 90s a bit more. Even before I read the desc I thought it looked pretty 90s, so good on you there.

Knotting your shirt at the waist _was_ the height of coolitude. As were jelly bracelets and layered scrunched socks...
These are awfully cute...just wish they were the _real ponies_, not the reboot. You should do the originals--Blossom, Butterscotch, Minty, Cotton Candy, Snuzzle, Peachy, Bluebell, or Glory and Moondancer and Melody and Applejack and Bowtie...sigh... Yes, I still have all of mine from way back when

I like original ponies too, but I never saw much of the cartoons - just the specials, mostly. It'd be a lot harder for me to sort of assign them clear-cut personalities, too. Apart from that, there are just so many, it'd be really hard for me to pick a core group.
I do still have all of my ponies too, however.

Considering MLP is from the 80's originally, I think 80's clothes are appropriate. Actually, Pinkie's clothes fit her perfectly. xD; This is actually a very good human version and yes, I need to draw my own human version's of these guys too. It will happen eventually. xD;;
Well done! *faves*
