|MLP speedpaint| redesigning the main six's parents! (and the pie sisters + mud briar)

Описание: Hello everyone o/, as usual my upload schedule doesn't exist but happy valentines day!, I thought of all the videos i had to uplaod, a new redesign batch with a lot of couples (aka the main six's parents and pinkies siblings + mud briar) was a good choice to upload today ^^.

so for a little insight, the pie siblings and mud briar are first though i do jump around a lot between different redesigns. i wanted all the pie siblings to have kinda abstract markings and to be fluffy in specific places (since they are earth ponies) i also wanted some harmony between their looks and pinkies. so i darkened mauds pallete a bit and saturated it and kept her eye makeup and striking green eyes (the contrast in the light and dark parts of her eye make them look like a gem to me). for mud briar i gave him more splochy like patterns since i didn't want him marks to look like mauds and thought it looked nice, i pulled his hair back because i didn't like the micro bangs and thought it would be more visually interesting for him to not look exactly like maud with straight cut hair, i really didn't change either much XD i like their designs mostly so i just gave them a lil flare.

then i did lime stone pie and marble pie (and jumped to the parents a lot during, smokey quartz and igneous rock pie). i think i finished the parents before lime and marble actually. i didn't change much with the parents, i leaned into the sort of pilgrim aesthetic since that's what igneous's hat reminded me of but the tie made it look odd so i changed it to this thing that i dont know the name of, that a lot of pilgrims wore. i kept smokey mostly the same with colour adjustments and markings. i wanted igneous's markings to resemblance natural asymmetrical fur patterns while smokey's are more geometric and blended.

the girls i gave nods to the parents in their designs by having marble have similar markings to her dad and then more flowy lines to harken back to the marble side. i gave her two tones in her hair (the underside being a lighter gradient) and lime got a dirty blond hair to reference her dads coat being a orangy yellow tone (i thought it suited her better then the off white/grey hair of her OG designs) otherwise i gave her more geometric markings and mostly kept everything the same with both in terms of hair style with slight changes.

dash's parent were hard for me to nail down as i loved windy's design but not bow hothoof (god i hate that name). so i redid bow..his name is whirlpool now. he's a rough and tumble type who wears dark "edgy" clothes but is a sweet heart. i dont particularly like dash's parents so my version of them is different but no time or space for it here since i have so many characters to get through but yea. i decided that the two would have a split of the rainbow in their pallettes, so windy has yellow, orange/red, to green with her coat being light blue, Whirlpool has dark blue/purple, neon pink and blue with a light purple coat. i tied his hair back and made it really sharp like electricity and he has glasses!. i also gave some of the couples rings (on their horns or as a necklace).

rarity's parents i renamed technically, they are magnum gold and betty belle (betty is rarity's step mom and sweeties bio mom), i rewrote these guys hard considering they only were in one episode and kinda sucked, they felt like an attempt at a typical nuclear family and i didn't find that particularly interesting nor did it make since why rarity basically just has sweetie belle permanently after so i wanted a story reason for some of that. so magnum is a well known reporter/photographer. he started as a photographer from ponyville and gradually worked his way up as a reporter. he was on a trip in the lands called
