So I drew out a rough idea for Nightfall Flicker (just as a basic EP model atm as the horn is tricky. ). I tried one colour scheme here to see what you think: Those two spare models can be filled in after some suggestions. What do think? How's that hair look?

I think it looks pretty good.

Thanks. Kinda pegasi looking isn't it?

Yeah, but that's not really a problem.

So I did a couple more experiments with the colours, swapping the around etc:

I think the first one is the best. The second looks too much like Big Mac, and the third one looks too much like Flash.

You're right. Yeah the red on blue does look good, although I may add some details to his hair to liven it up a bit. And I might make his eyes green, or more yellow. If the eye colour determines magic aura colour then it needs to be right. Especially since he's going to have seriously flashy magic...in time. In the meantime, some more colour combos: I have the original scheme in there as a point of reference. I'm starting to think that a red coat would only work with a dark mane. But with a name like nightfall, perhaps I should stick with blue. Blue all over almost.

Some variant mane styles. Not even necessarily for Nightfall. I'm just seeing what works.

Prefer #1. The pompadour.

I didn't even realize it was a pompadour! What do you guys think about accessories? Hats, glasses, gloves, bandannas etc.

I also prefer the first version. As for accessories, you could go with any of those, BUT I'd suggest that you just pick one. One of the things that makes a lot of OC's look weird is that the artists give them a whole bunch of different things, which makes them stick out like a sore thumb because most ponies typically only have one or two accessories unless they're actively dressing up.

That is true. Some OCs I've seen are just bizarre in their colours/accessories/eyes/wings etc. Some more colour combos here:

If he's the leader, then he should have an impressive hat to signal that. At least when he's on the ship.

But that would be more of an EP thing. I think a hat for him is a needed now though. Especially since this is sort of based on One Piece. I also tried out some doctor colours. Not for nightfall but for the doc, obviously: I think there should be some blue in there somewhere. And the cutie mark is supposed to be a lightning bolt over a heart. I didn't do a very good job on that.

Blue eyes, maybe?
