Her normal tagua nut pendant got upgraded to some swanky black opal. Her repeating mark is the S shaped path from the pen tool. Not only did her mane get some color, but her toes and face stripes also got a touchup. It's magic!

 

Duster's rainbow palette was a challenge since she's all brown. But color theory takes all the guesswork out! Here's how I managed to rainbowfy her.

 

  1. Color drop your mane color to get the hex code.
  2. Input the hex code here (lower right corner of the wheel) and select "tetrad."
  3. If your character has one solid mane color, use two or three colors. Two mane colors use one or two colors. Three or more use one or just stylize what you have (look at Rainbow Dash for ideas.)
  4. Screencap your colors to get onto your drawing program and enjoy!

And for getting through that, here's some fat Purple Smart drawn on the 3DS. I'll be finishing the Mane 6 for postcards.

I like your OC but for tips on rainbowing I think you should give her a bit more colors.


These endless scribbles in my journal mean nothing to you; don't read on....


It was the end days ago.

 I had Rainbowfied my OC days before the finale, I had second thoughts on it after I posted it.

Can you give me some pointers as to what I may have went wrong? As well as tips on it.

Rainbowing Navi now! I don't like what it did with my mane though, it added a horrendous orange and yellow. I like the dark blue it gave me though...

This topic seems to be of designing Pony OCs and giving out tips on designing them, and as such, I have moved your thread from Fan Art to the Original Characters sub-section.
