What other Gen ponies were G4s designed after?

[StrawberryReef]

I'm adding a section to my G4 site that shows what other Generation ponies the new G4s were likely designed after. Some are obvious and some are not...


Here's what I have so far... let me know what you think. What is your opinion on who these new ponies were designed after? Comparison pics would be great too!

Apple Bloom - possibly G3 Apple Spice or Candy Apple?

mg: I made the same comparison for Rainbow Dash being Firefly and Rarity being Glory. It never crossed my mind that Twilight might be StarSong.mg:

Lily Blossom's colors are similar to G3 Daisy Jo.

I love seeing all the G4 pictures. I'm afraid they are growing on me.

 

[StrawberryReef]

Lily Blossom's colors are similar to G3 Daisy Jo.

Good one... added her

 

[BubbleGlum]

Skywishes also seems to have a hint of baby mischief in her! (pink pegasus, yellow hair, kite cutiemark).

Baby mischief + g3 skywishes = g4 skywishes!

Star Swirl also resembles Princess Royal Blue

 

[Sprinkles]

Twilight Sparkle is based on G1 Twilight and G3 Twilight Twinkle, I think.

 

[Skelletonimp]

Twinkleshine --- G2 Princess Twinkle Star

 

[Novavelle]

Living the dream

I can't find it blown up to a readable size, but you can see the pictures, at least.

(Skig's picture)

They could have all been redesigned G1's? COOL.

 

[BubbleGlum]

Been thinking/digging:
Rainbow Flash also has the same symbol as g1 baby Rainribbon, as well as a similar body color.
Daisy Dreams looks like Ember from the My Little Pony movie.

You should also include Skyskimmer, G2 who is yellow with pink hair and a pink butterfly Also there's another G2 identical to Twinkleshine but I have no idea which one she is. She had wings I think.

Awesome fun post. I love stuff like this.

LOL I still can't get over the new G4 look. I was just getting used to the G3's! And is it my imagination, or are they steadily ceasing to look like ponies anymore?
Don't get me wrong, they're cute! I guess I'm just not used to them yet.
