Hello everypony, I figured that today I'd list all the songs and other things that inspired me to create my OC's. Starting with...

Damien Bolt.

Damien represents what I wish I was, and what I wish I wasn't. On one side of the coin, you have this selfless hero who's willing to lay down his life for those he cares about, and on the other, you have all of my hate, my rage, my frustrations. You can see that I wasn't in such a good situation when I made him.

Songs:

A Call to Arms - Crown the Empire

Flash Lightning.

Ahh Flash, he represents my more innocent side. He's cheerful, friendly, and usually a ton of fun to be with. But he tends to be self centered, greedy, and when something is bothering him, he lets it show.

Songs and inspiration:

My generally upbeat personality.

Acrylic:

Acrylic, he represents my creativity. But also my depression, I was having quite the awful day when the idea for him came to me.

Songs and inspiration:

Believe - Hollywood Undead

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3DeLigICVB-uM&ved=0ahUKEwi5vovZp9_NAhVJdj4KHXeXDRgQyCkIHjAA&usg=AFQjCNEzr-OWW5qz61D1_zeWM6KhOlKIaw

My creativity, the part if me that just loves to make things. Like try and animate, build with legos, and program.

Dahlia Grace.

I know what you're thinking, "How can she represent part of you when she's a girl!" Well, her original idea came when I listened to Silent Scream, by Anna Blue. It just conveyed so many emotions... Some of which I could relate to, I felt compelled to make her.

Songs and inspiration:

Silent Scream - Anna Blue

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3DcIlghWDd7RU&ved=0ahUKEwjSgYrtp9_NAhUCZj4KHfLRC3wQyCkIHTAA&usg=AFQjCNHCuQ8b-BMcVXqtGQtrx9fOP5rflw

Lupus.

Last and certainly not least, is Lupus. I don't quite know all of the things that inspired me to create him, but one of them was my doubt. And the part of me that usually wants to be left alone. He - like me - almost always keeps his feelings of sadness and self loathing on the inside. And puts on a smile for everyone else so they won't worry.

Songs and inspiration:

Just me...

Right now I'm working on an OC that takes all of these things and puts them together into one pony, a pony who truly represents who I am. It's taken a while but I'm positive it'll be worth it.

This is Damien, signing off!
