Copied this from the post made on tumblr where you can also see other color overlay options: http://onnanoko-mlp.tumblr.com/post/52952443513/a-pony-character-i-have-been-wanting-to-develop

A pony character I have been wanting to develop since first sketching her here http://onnanoko-mlp.tumblr.com/post/52004431251/just-a-big-bunch-of-pony-doodles-i-had-from-my (she is the red pencil doodle on the brown recycled paper)

I think I’m going with the name Indigo Eye. The color and symbol that represents the 6th chakra.

Yes, she has a third eye in her forehead. Her other eyes work just fine, but normally she cannot open all three at once, it’s either the one or the pair. I’m thinking that her normal eyes are going to be a different color from her third eye, which is based off of the 6th chakra, the ajna mandala which is often represented as a third eye.

I’m designing a cutie mark based off of the symbol for it too, but still fiddling around with her colors as well as some of the fancy markings I’d like her to have. I originally thought of making her a reddish and white/cream color combo so maybe I’ll fiddle with it some more and post those later on. I realize she looks very Scootaloo-ish here, but originally her body color was a creamy brown and a darker, indigo hair. But once I added the overlays, etc. it lightened it all up.

I kinda also want to implement extra painted on designs that are never drawn quite the same way, so it’s like she just randomly paints designs on herself.

Random thoughts! Enjoy the art I spent too much time on.
