Ignoring the too-thin outlines (I dont know why the fuck illustrator chooses to, at random, ignore the saved layer order and stroke sizes), this is my OC, but with a thinner body and slightly thinner legs. Before (http://www.ponibooru.org/post/view/25003 ) he was a bigger draft pony shape, but I wanted him kinda in between.
I don't think I have seen many OCs that aren't one of the few existing shapes (regular M/F, mrs cake F, teen fluttershy F, mr cake M, bartender guy M, big macintosh M, etc), so I am curious what the general community thought is on body types that aren't in-show. |

Hmmm... I like this OC, It's not another Alicorn with "Insert Godly Power here" that I hate... It's not a near duplicate of another character in show.
Seems OK |

I'm not particualrly concerned with the OC itself, ATM I am just wondering about body shapes.
I would pesronally love to see more varied body shapes in OCs. |

He's a pony version of an anthro deer, actually.
And it is a goatee, I just accidentally moved it too high. He looks wrong without it and ponies can totally have facial hair so I am not shaving it. :D |

I'm not really sure where you're coming from with non-traditionally drawn pony shapes. A fair few come from the pony generator, for one thing. But I'd be inclined to say that most people just draw their ponies differently. MegaSweet, CartoonLion and Valcron use sometimes wildly different styles. As long as it looks pony, it'll pretty much be pony.
Which now makes me wonder why there aren't more OC dragons, cats, dogs etc. that fit with the style. No one has ever, say, teamed up with Angel and had an adventure. Nor has anyone had an OC dragon that shows it's hardship of living in or near Equestria. I dunno, I'm just rambling. Anyway, there's nothing wrong with your pony, dude, thin lines or not. :) |

What's his special talent? Playing Sims? |
| Van_Horsing #567529 9 months ago |
Make the yoke brown, grey, or some other non-splashy color, and it'll be acceptable.
I don't have any opinion on body types. |

I don't want to bring up the yoke and talent because people probably would consider them awful terribad ideas |

naw, Fuzz, you're fine. some OC-Haters are okay; they can have legitimate reasons to hate them, esp if they God-mod or they're a mary-sue, but OC-Haters that hate for BODY SHAPE of all things aren't worth listening to.
and this oc here is fine. Big Mac can't be the only guy in the world with that body type. The only thing I question is the color of the horse collar; think it clashes just a bit, but otherwise, awesome job |

I think this is a troll pic. This pony doesn't seem "Non-standard" to me. |

Ditch the muzzle color and it'll look perfectly in style with the show as far as I'm concerned. Though I am curious as to what his talent is, seeing as he has a delicate thing like a jewel on his butt, but then is wearing a work horse yoke. |

His talent is gemstones. He knows how to cut them and do simple enchantments on them.
I fear people will think "can do simple magic without being a unicorn" is OBSCENELY OUT OF LINE. The mark itself is a Plumbob shape from The Sims, the Plumbob being the gemstone above a sim's head. In the first game there was a magic expansion with enchanted gemstones in the same shape. I am a huge fan of the sims. And the yoke is, itself, cut from a giant gemstone...I just couldn't draw it so that was obvious. Inspired by the Hammerthyst from Fable 2, a giant hammer made from a giant gemstone. Gems are obviously very common in Equestria so I dont think a giant accessory made from a not-too-valuable (in real life) gem is too crazy. But combined they seem like things people would go "TOO UNIQUE!!!" to. |
