Pony Color Guide

Plaster is going to make you pro at coloring ponies.  Use it well!  There are many ponies just begging for it in the drawfriend posts here.

And a quick explanation from Plaster himself-
"Here's a rundown of this image
Everypony but fluttershy and bon-bon have at least 4 colors in their eyes. those are marked.
and then the main color of the eye is usually somewhere in the cutiemark, the only exception to this that i have seen is luna/celestia and rainbow dash. Also i must add that the colts and other males only have 2 colors in their eyes, and to blend lightly"
(use the dropper for those that don't know what to do with this/are bad at compooter)

While this subject is up, is there any specific method that's best to colour the black outlines of much of the linart that's floating around?

well "officially" the outlines should be a darker color than the corresponding color on the body, but with lineart (which is much easier to color) is that there should be a "multiply layer" option somewhere, that makes it so that the color goes "underneath" the lineart. this makes things a LOT easier, just don't get lazy
