[Usual Crypty 4,644]

I drew dis OC as a birthday gift. And did it my temporary avatar. But I had no time to change it month already.

Also, to be honest, I like it

Because its my home football teams badge, I've supported them my whole life.

[Rarity Is Best Pony 634]

My newest profile pic shows off my love for my favorite game series Splinter Cell.

[TigerGeekGuy 4,662]

Excision's music is awesome.

1. Madoka Magica is a personal favorite anime of mines.

2. I like the caption in the image.

[Blackshirt Brony 415]

Well, besides backing the Packers I couldn't think of anything else to use.

I was really into WarriorCats. So I was browsing DeviantArt and saw other WarriorCats fans creating licky cats. I really wanted to make one, and it took several years before I found out how. By then, I was more into MLP so I created a licky cat and added a mane so it looked more like a pony.

I've been binge-watching OITNB for a while and Lorna Marello is my favorite so far... ;3

[Starlet Harmony 128]

Mine is of my OC, Starlet Harmony. I put this pic as my avatar because I thought it was pretty haha! I drew this pic of her as a crystal pony and then used an app to edit it and add a bunch of sense flares and pretty swirls and stuff.

I really like drawing chibis, so I did this as part of a Tumblr post. I also wanted to use it as an avatar because I'm happy with how it turned out. Plus, Quartz is my OC! ^^

Cause,I enjoyed episode 19 of Be Cool,Scooby Doo.

[Lulaypp 2,555]

Because there is my Ninjago OC, her dagger, the note, crystals and Hali the compressed crystal.

[pmaster3363 29]

I was searching through some MLP fanart a couple weeks back and found a surprising amount of Fluttershy as a sniper of some sort. Eventually, I found this pic, thought it was cool, and made it my avatar!

[AtomicStone 724]

Because Dragonball super XD

[Chara 1,565]

I chose my current one to show my love and compassion for Tokyo Ghoul.

[DeadRightNowBoi 161]

Well, why not? This one looks badass!

 

I sometimes change my profile pic to fit the theme for any project I'm working on. So, pretty much my profile pics can be mini-teasers  You'll mainly see my Mario OC though, so let me explain why I choose him in most of my avatars.

 

 

The shades on him represent my shy personality, while the money bag behind him represents my optimism, and the koala bear represents my friendliness! You'll sometimes see him on new avatars without some of the three things on him either for a purpose, or simply just I get too lazy to add them

[Jeric 46,850]

I'm on a Pony board, Rarity is my favorite character, and I specifically commissioned the piece that I'm using at the moment. I do miss my Ponybucks Rarity though. Off MLPF I almost always use a cosmology or astronomy based avatar.

[Out of this place 51]

I wanted to have one, so I improvised one up.

Nothing too fancy.

[Away 2,077]

K-On references a lot of old, classic bands. I love this one in particular because it's The Who and they all look so snuggly :3

Ace Attorney anime starts this week, and the sixth game comes out a few months after that, both of which finally have Maya returning <3

[That Guy with the CMB 5,873]

Because the thermal drill.

[captainborgue 343]

An artist I follow generously sketched an OC of mine. So I cropped it to just the face.

[Luminance 2,186]

Drives miata, puts miata avatar. Simple

[Scarlet Kitten 28]

My avatar is my main ponysona. her mane and tail colors are pretty much what my hair will look like once it's been cut and dyed next week :3

[Denim&Venöm 18,556]

<-- This, is Joakim Broden. He fronts Swedish power metallers Sabaton, who write whole albums on military history. They kick tons of ass live and Joakim is a pretty funny dude on stage. And judging by the pic, he just might be a member of the herd.
