I hate to be a part of the negativity bandwagon, but these characters look really poorly designed.

First of all, even though all the ponies in FiM all have different appearances based on their personalities, it just looks like they all have skirts, a blouse and a pair of boots when not all of them would be wearing that because it's not in all the ponies' characters. For example, I could see Rainbow Dash in something like a hoodie or a Jersey, sweats and a pair of running sneaker's, because she's the "tomboy" of the group. It's kind of like if someone did a spinoff of FraggleRock, made all the Fraggles human, and gave Red a dress; it would make no logical sense because it wouldn't be in character. :/

And speaking of clothes, the outfits don't look very good to me. I'm not really a fashionista or anything (in fact, speaking as a girl, my favorite outfit is actually my favorite Batman hoodie and a pair of jeans), but for a lot of the character's outfits, it feels like there's way too much going on in one outfit. The only exceptions to this are Rarity (of course, since she's the fashionista of the group so she's obligated to have a "Trendy" outfit), and Fluttershy (who just has a tank top, skirt and boots).

Their hair styles also seem wrong. For example, one person pointed out that even though AppleJack and Fluttershy had the longest manes, they seem to have the shortest hairstyles out of everybody here. And is it just me, or does RD's hair seem a little too long? I expected her to have more of a style more like this: http://hipsterspot.info/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Hipster-haircuts-1.jpeg

I also think that the fact that they have pastel-colored skin seems reaaallly off-putting. It looks like Pinkie Pie has sunburn, Rarity looks sickly pale, and Fluttershy and AppleJack seem to have Jaundice with that skin color. Plus with Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash, their skin looks really awkward. I really would have appreciate having the characters have more flesh-like skin colors (or even following a lot of fan theories and making Pinkie Pie African American, that would be really lovely.)

So, yeah, tl;dr I don't like these.
