Dreadmallon 353 February 7, 2013 Share February 7, 2013 I was honestly planning to put this on a general OC appearance thread, but I couldn't find one, so here it is. I'm trying to get my character to be somewhat mysterious. However, I am not too sure masks (or helmets that cover your face, whatever) fit MLP. What do you think?

MelancholicMemory 2,025 February 7, 2013 Share February 7, 2013 It really depends on the mask. A Batman or Rorschach type of mask probably wouldn't work, but a mask like Robin (Batman's sidekick) has might work, with slight alterations. At least that's what I think would work in general, although there are no absolute rules in terms of character design. You could also substitute a mask for certain types of hats, such as a cowboy hat or one like Alucard from Hellsing wears. The hat can mask the character's identity by being tilted forward, and it gives off a mysterious vibe. You could also go the Assassin's Creed route and give the character a hood or something similar.

Dreadmallon 353 February 7, 2013 Author Share February 7, 2013 Hm...well I'm considering giving my character armor somewhat like NM's...because he is, well, "New Moon." I just want some changes to make him a bit more mysterious, as he's not only the "New Moon," but has its color scheme and its dark mysteries.

Sard Shift 21 February 7, 2013 Share February 7, 2013 Though it depends on the mask and the pony, I personally prefer no mask. I am sort of a minimalist and would like to keep ponies simple. Of course a accessory here and there isn't that bad, as long as it's small, like glasses or a watch. It's also the reason why I dislike the capes the ponies wear sometimes, purely because I like 'simpleness'. It's all just a matter of opinion though.

Unthradox 10 February 7, 2013 Share February 7, 2013 If I made an OC I would probably give it a mask (Thus my Profile picture, I'm a masked youtuber) Definitely something you can consider, It's what makes it original! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Bobcat 45 February 7, 2013 Share February 7, 2013 The Mare-Do-Well pull it off so... yeah, if the mask has a good disign it can work. Also you might want to see other OCs with mask, you can't be the only one that though of a mask for his OC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
