Were Trixie's eyebrows intentional?

It likely varies from character to character, and I would say they add it largely for emphasis on character expressions. Somepony else actually has them...

So yeah; we don't normally see them, but anytime we do it's usually to emphasize an expression of sorts, IMO.

Every character has them at some point, it's just used to show a specific expression as below:

Yeah, but only on certain occasions, expressions for instance.

 

And that's largely the point. They help accentuate Trixie's smug sense of self-satisfaction, and it works quite well.

 

Likewise with Harshwinny, it helps to accent her rather serious business-like nature of getting things done and sending a message to whomever she is talking with.

 

Tis an animation thing.

Then shouldn't they be the same color as the mane? i can see them working just fine for RD an some others, but not sure of the rest.

 

Not all the time. If they were they wouldn't be as noticable. Maybe eyebrow dying black is a common thing? Plus, it makes the expressions more noticable and a lot stronger.

Two completely different occassions.  I love it when she does that.  This show needs more AJ brow raising.  Isn't she the most precious thing you've ever seen?  Don't you just want to squeeze her til you both explode??!

Also, I think most people's eyebrows are significantly darker than their hair (if they have light hair, that is.)  Well, a lot of them are at least.  And that's more often than not how fictional characters are done as well.  It looks more natural, I think.

For example:

Sorry, I went a little nuts, there.

They're the same colour as the eyelashes instead.

 

I guess they're just typical cartoon eyebrows, they show up just to emphasizes certain expressions.

 

Yes, just like our eyebrows do, right?

 

Right?

 

It's just me?
