Question of the Week #39 · 10:56pm Jan 9th, 2022
Shoot! I forgot to post this... oh well.
Well, I guess it's time for Late Question of the Week... So here is the question. Should I try to redesign my old OC?
For those of you who don't know, when I started as a member of this community, I was way more into the Grimdark side of the genre than I am now. Just look at my older stories (you don't have to read them if you don't want to) and you'll see what I mean. Back then my Robipony OC was well... This...
and this...
I also used this OC to represent me during my mlp youtube reading.
However, I for the most part now write slice of life, comedy, mystery and romance; so, I haven't used this OC in a long time. So, what do you think? Should I maybe try to bring back this OC but redesign them to be less edgy/grim?
Thank you all for your time and I hope you have a good day.
I think a refresh would be beneficial to you! Sometimes we ALL have to look at our old works and think, "it's good, but I can do better now". This is that opportunity to do so! I say go for it!
Yes go for it!
Have your current version react to a remake of the past version! The potential new blogs of this!
I used an eighth note with two Zs in the tail for my avatar’s cutie mark when I first started and now that really doesn’t fit, like I haven’t written music in forever (no room for my keyboard).
The Z part still makes sense, though
Maybe have it be technically the same pony, but after having the in-character realization that he's a grimderp who nobody could take seriously and changing for the better? We need to give the internet real role models, and that could be a start.
yes, redesign him
