Description
Rarity obviously wasn't too excited by the idea of jousting, but the allure of the outfit proved too much for her. So far, the colors of each of these was based on the colors of their respective coronation dress. I'm not entirely happy with the flags, but please let me know what you think. The ponytail was more or less the exact one used in her ponytail series, I definitely recommend checking her out.Edit: Fixed multiple stupid errors thanks to .

Ah. I still have that reverse habit, too, sometimes.
But this still leaves the question how you could know that "Damsel" was referring to Rarity.
(I'm playing Ace Attorney right now, please forgive me.

Cuz depsite her protest in "The Pony and Dog Show", Rarity was, is and will be in the future, be portrayed as a damsel.
(( Sadly I don't know that game

Oh, and thanks for letting me know! I love Agate's oriental look, especially her sleeve and pole-arm.

Thank you very much. The design was made for my Black-Red challenge, and is a little reference to Lu Bu from the DW series (See the halberd and the giant red feathers)
I'm glad you like it.

Of course, you did a good job getting it to match the show's style, that's personally the hardest part for me.

When I decided my OCs, Agate's special occupation will be making fancy, elegant armors I had just a few ideas for how they'd look like. This, my friend is even better than that I ever imagined.

Thank you so much, I'm flattered! That's neat, I really enjoy designing armor as well. If you're ever in need of ideas, I recommend going to the source, there's plenty of historical artifacts and artwork that depict great designs for barding and caparisons, and not just European either (even though they're my go-to designs).

Do you think you can do the rest of the Mane Six in this?

That's the plan! I'm trying to decide who to do next. AJ, RD, and PP all have their own little challenges to them.

RD: something rainbow or lightning bolt related?
AJ: apples?
PP: balloons or sprinkles?

That sounds about right, thanks!

Oh, and confetti! She can probably use her party cannon too!

That's a good idea, I'll keep that in mind, thanks again!

This looks quite interesting, especially because of the design of her armor and the colors. Very nicely done!

Thanks! Simple designs for the outfits are kind of a fun challenge, for it's making something that compliments her well, and balancing the right amount of detail that makes it distinct, but without looking busy or out of place in the show's style.

Oh well, I can say you did quite a good job with this design, so just keep it up, alright? No worries!

Wow, they should have had Rarity do the jousting in the Crystal Empire part 2!

If only...she would've given Rainbow Dash a run for her money, if only to ensure that the outfit would stay undamaged XD.

You know what this reminds me of? That trope where it's a competition for the princess's hand in marriage, but the princess herself is one of the competitors, to save herself. I've seen it in Brave and A Kid in King Arthur's Court.

I see what you mean, it's certainly hard to beat those kinds of scenes when it comes to dramatic character identity reveals.

Really cool.
Say, will Rainbow Dash have her own jousting attire too?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks, and yes, that's the plan! She'll probably be the easier of the 3 main characters I haven't done yet; I haven't a clue for how to go about making the ones for AJ and Pinkie.

Cool, what about Shining Armor and Cadence, maybe they could royal jousting attire?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't see why not! Those two will definitely require some thought.

Very interesting, talk about subverting the trope! Thanks for the link

Thank you, I don't have much of an eye for colors, and I saw no harm in borrowing the coronation dress's colors

Thanks, I had my doubts, but it's good to hear it from you

There is no such thing as too much decorations

Rarity: STOP! I need hoof guards or I will get my hooves muddy.
Rainbow Dash: For ponies sake! xD
