My main OC is going to be a pegasus. Big deal, right? NO. But right now for my main OC, I'm using an alicorn named Princess Navi, as you can tell by my name and profile pic. So, I don't understand why all the hate goes into having an alicorn oc. Okay, so what if most suck? No need to be rude! So my question is: what should I do to fix my OC? My pegasus OC has some design hiccups that need fixing. Here is what I consider to be THE OC GUIDELINES!
1. Don't make it have an amazing special power or be the BFF of all the mane six
2. Evil/sad/emo backstories are a NO-NO
3. Handicaps. Bad. Use in strict moderation.
4. Rainbows are used too much= NO.
5. Recolors are unoriganal.
6. Throwing on a cloak, glasses, 20 hats, and some butterfly wings is just SAD.
7. Be consistent with your color scheme.
8. Have a name that matches your cutie mark and colors.
9. Be VERY careful and tread lightly with alicorn OCs
10. Hrybrids are hard to do. Don't do them if it doesn 't make sense.
11. Make sure your cutie mark makes sense.
12. Sons and daughters of princesses, villains, or the Mane 6 are bad.
Okay, that's about it. But one last rule:
13: PONY CREATOR IS ONLY USED TO GET AN IDEA OF THE DESIGN. GOT IT?
This really angers me, because artists lose skill (and sometimes money) to this EVIL THING. The PONY CREATOR is the only thing I hate about the Living Tombstone: PONY CREATOR OCS! You are bad and you should feel bad if you have a pony creator OC. DRAW IT, JEEZ. Or at least ask someone to draw it for you.
You guys post good/bad OCs below!
