I made a Sky Painter OC! (Original Sky Painter headcannon AND DRAWN STYLE credits to @Mystiffy-, Im just a collab partner. XD) ERMAHGAWD, I cant believe I made this, I think this is the first OC design I made on the First try that DOESNT make me cringe. And Mist bae's style is the only one that makes the wings I draw look good.... XD (And I have a weird thing for feather earrings...)

I'll explain what the Sky Painter concept is.

So, Sky Painters are basically a small group of Pegasi who are responsible for the colors you see in the sky, like the oranges in the horizon, to the purples at dusk. They're the ones who put it up there by painting it. They can specialize in horizon lines, sunrises, dusks, dawns, twilight, sunsets, etc. The combos can go on for a while. Or they can specialize in a certain style of Sky Painting. Usually a foal
relative of/part of a Sky Painter family are taught by a former/current Sky Painter ex.(parents/aunt/uncle/grandparents) as tradition.

Now, these are MY added on ideas, @Mystiffy-, if you like these ideas, confirm in the comments PLZ...:

-But you need to be born into a family of Sky Painters or closely related to a family with a Sky Painter in it to ever be able to have a chance in having a CM/talent related to Sky Painting. And not every single member of a Sky Painter family is one. There are exceptions here and there.

-The magic Pegasi use to paint the colors of the sky are made by SkyPaint Crafters (Pegasi who create the Sky Pigments for SkyPainters to use.) by a secret magical recipe that is forbidden knowledge unless you have one of the talents associated with SkyPaint Crafting.

-When Sky Painters work, their Sky Pigments are kept in leak-free pouches hung around belts or necklaces. (Like one above) but they only wear it when working.

-When a foal who is in a Sky Painter family/related family, earns their Sky Painting related CM, they earn some type of mane pattern/stripes to confirm them officially joining the Sky Painter Flock. (This means their mane color was only one solid color when SkyPainter foals were without a CM.)

Here are the ideas I have for the headcannon! Hope you like! If you guys are interested in seeing a ref sheet for Skan, PLZ tell me! I'm looking for a color palette for her, so I'll color her hopefully soon!
