Description
And here's the vectored version of Nightingale/Wind Shear. The name Wind Shear © (Check out her custom figures!).

Note that I've used the colors from the pilot. Since it was night time, the colors should actually be a bit brighter. It's possible she's white but I'm leaning more towards a light blue.

Dunno if I'll be doing any recolors of her. Differences aside, she's pretty much Spitfire in a different uniform.

If you would like me to upload a larger version of this vector please let me know in the comments below.

Nice work! I wish you uploaded larger versions though.

I'd be glad to upload a larger version. Would you prefer the original size I used, or something inbetween the huge version and the current one?

Well I dunno how big your working copy is, but usually when doing vector art you wanna upload a very big version of it and people can scale it down if they need to. I always go with something between 4-8000 pixels in width or height depending on the dimensions of the image.

My working copy is close to 1.5k by 1.7k. Guess that's pretty small. I normally just take my Paint recolors and add a 1 to the start of the width and height sizes before vectoring. But upscaling them doesn't seem to affect quality which is nice. Benefits of vectors. I'll be uploading a large version seperately soon. Do you want her original colors or the bright ones?

Yeah, if it's actual true vector, you should be able to make them as big as you want with no loss in quality. The current colors are the bright ones, right? That should be fine.

Nopes. I'll upload a standard sized vector with the bright colors and you can let me know which to enlarge later. I haven't decided how I want to approach the sizes yet.

I could keep the smaller vectors and change the descriptions to state to request larger versions via comment or notes if desired. But I may update any vectors not intended for recolors with bigger versions. I dunno. Without feedback, I guess I'll just have to guess what people want. Maybe I'll make a folder specifically for huge vectors.

Ooh, where'd you get the name from?

Someone created a custom figure of her and used that name. Unfortunately I don't know who the name's creator is so I can't really credit them for it. It's an alright name but I'm having trouble deciding on a cutie mark I think fits.

Oh hey! I just saw this in my inbox!
I'm glad you liked the name, I thought it was kind of fitting.

Hey. ^^ It is a good name. Have you ever thought about what her cutie mark might be? I've been considering a gray cloud with either lighter or darker gray streaks/swirls signifying wind. Wind related cutie marks are a toughie. A tornado is another possibility if I were to use a cutie mark seen in the show.

Also, any plans on doing a male Shadowbolt custom and/or naming him as well? I have to say your customs are amazing. ^^ I hope you didn't mind me using the name but since I don't read fanfics, it was the only name I'd seen assigned to her.

Maybe a black lightning bolt?

I'm thinking maybe a dark grey cloud with some swirls signifying wind. I'd like it to both look like something a background pony might use AND still be identifiable with the name.

That's way better than my idea, I like it!
