I don't like being the type of person who shits on new gens of shows just because it's not the version I grew up with, but Gen5 is a BIG downgrade compared to Gen4!
So I redesigned them all! Here you go, Hasbro, I did your job better for free! :3
Would anyone like to hear my version of the movie?
I've been seeing a lot of people drawing Sunny Starscout interacting with a corrupted Twilight Sparkle recently and the common theme is that Twilight stole the magic and it wasn't Sunnies to give back in her mind. A lot of people show Sunny as intimidated, but I honestly think she would be a lot like Twilight interacting with Nightmare Moon for the first time, perhaps intimidated internally but not showing it outwardly and putting on the brave face. (Twilight charged at Nightmare Moon, I wouldn't be surprised if Sunny would do similar)
Twilight yelling: It wasn't your magic to give back!
Sunny yelling louder: and it wasn't your magic to take!
I mean if you got magic back for everyone, meet your role model only to find out they stole the magic to begin with and now they are accusing you of misdeeds and yelling at you. I think she deserves to scream back is all I'm thinking. In this theoretical scenario. I also think in the scenario of Twilight stealing the magic like that, she would need a real hard and loud wake-up call. And what if she relives the first time her and her friends met, but now she's in Nightmare Moons position. That would be a slap to the face, and they probably wouldn't even need the rainbow friendship beam. Make her look in a mirror and see just who she has become
And if you wanna do the reincarnation thing, Sunny and her friends could be reincarnations of Twilight's old friends. Because I like angst
Sunny Starscout redesign! This was based on a few different concept art versions of her. My favorite being one where Sunny was purple and yellow. (It’s below the cut!)
My Sunny is a cartographer, and one day she wants to map out all of Equestria! She loves adventures and carries a notebook to write down/draw everything she sees.
My commissions are open! Please view my pinned post for more information!
The right hairstyle is my fave. I would have used it if I was better at drawing things based on a 3/4 angle. If you couldn’t tell my design is meant to be based on the left one!
So I'm kinda shy about posting this here. I tried to animate Sunny in the G4 style as an exercise. But this was the first "animation" of a character I ever made, and i wouldn't even call it animation cuz I traced the movement from a gif and I know it's not good but I've been working on it for 3 days!
