Mane six redesigns.
Decided to try out making the races of ponies in equestria a lot more visually different.
Earthponies are stockier, shorter, yet hardier limbs for more manual labour. Built for physical strenght. This is shown the best in Applejack, whose even wearing reinforcing leg braces for bucking. Her mane and tail are also tied up to keep out of the way. Pinkie Pie is slightly less muscular, as she stopped working on the family farm ages ago, so they would go away with time.
Pegasi are slimmer, lighter, which makes them more aerodynamic. They are covered in fur-like feathers rather than actual fur, which is most noticable in their ears. I also love how they've done wings in g5, so reflected that in these designs with mote individual and larger wings, and with hoof-feathers in stead of actual feathering. Rainbow Dash accentuates this in her short mane and tail, whilst Fluttershy shows her tendancy to stay earthbound in her long mane and tail. And her shyness in hiding behind her wings
The Unicorns are very much based on old school depictions, giving them long, slim tails, long feathering, and a much more prominent horn. Their hooves are split, to give them two more flexible digits, lile that of deer, as since they have magic, they have not needed to evolve as much as the other pony species. They are also much taller which, in a way reflects our own world with Rarity, and how models are very often very tall and slim. Which is why high fashion in equestria comes from the Unicorns. Twilight also wears a satchel with her journal.
These redesigns were also deliberately made wothout reference. I only got refrences when colouring, to colourpick from the original six.

Rarity re-design headcanon 💎🪻
she is a twinkle eyed pony! ✨ a special species that first appeared in G1 :3 in my headcanon, this is what makes her so rare, as not many current day unicorns (G4 era) are born with twinkle eyes or 3D crystal cutiemarks 🩵she is inspired by Akhal-Teke horses irl ~

my personal redesigns / headcanons for the mane 6!!!
sorted in height order ✬
tidbids;
Twilight had some leftover heritage batpony genes, which became present after becoming an alicorn, she also got a lot taller (before she was about dash's height), rainbow power and holding the princess' magic gave her the yellow streaks and glowy ends
Rarity is part crystal pony, so she has a crystal horn- allowing for very precise magic.
Fluttershy has lingering traits of her time as a vampire bat
AJ has several scars from working on the farm
Rainbow has some stunt-injuries, and one lightning-strike scar. Her rainbow colours are super rare, so she likes to show them off.
Pinkie is a miniature pony, dinky little thing. 90% of her jewellery is edible.
