Description

{EDITED: I've skewed the cutie mark, forgot to upload this one instead.}
Quite a while ago I adopted a pony, semi-vectored her, and then got stuck on a name. A month or two went by, and eventually I settled on one. Gizmo Zap!
I'm currently studying electrical engineering, and so I figured I'd make an OC related to my studies, with the more tightly-wound aspect of my personality (I've always been uptight about academics). So here she is!

  • Name: Gizmo Zap
  • Gender: Mare
  • Species: Unicorn
  • Cutie Mark: A resistor bent into the shape of a heart
  • Home: South Africolt
  • Job/Occupation: Electronics repairmare
  • Interests/Hobbies: Fixing things, building things, technology, circuit design
  • Personality: Gizmo Zap (Izzy/Zaps for short) is an intelligent, observant, and slightly paranoid pony(even though she doesn't look it). She loves to build things that will help improve the lives of other ponies, but her specialty is in the electronics area. A perfectionist to the core, she can become rather aggravated when she is not successful at something (read: stay far, far away, unless you are ready for the raging). She is ready for any questions other ponies may have about technology, trying her best to answer them. When she herself does not know, she tends to freeze up and become rather awkward(perfectionism is a beast - she would hate for anyone to think she's a dumbie).

[Details, details:
Pony adopted from: (Hope you don't mind but I changed her a bit)
Body vector used from: Vector 14} Don't underestimate my magic  (I changed little things here and there to suit my liking)
Everything else vectored by me   ]

OH, almost forgot. A lot of people get swamped with "thank yous" for favourites, which probably gets annoying. I don't want to miss anyone out either, or copy-paste thanks, and I don't want to constantly bother the same people with my gratitude. So, for everyone who shows their appreciation for this:
    THANK YOU FOR THE FAVOURITE!!!!

Thanks!   I was really trying to avoid a sweet-themed pony here, and the brown made me think of a "grounded" pony. Haha!   (For those who don't get my silly humour: "Grounded" is basically a term used when a circuit component is connected to a reference point of 0V - Long story for me to explain, but if you're interested, do some research  )
When I was soldering the one day, I thought a bandanna would help with the smoke. That's when I got the idea of what to theme her around.

Thank you! I changed a few things, but once again I have to shift most of the credit to the adopt maker

She's cute! Her colors remind me of chocolate mint ice cream.

Thanks!   I also had that idea when I saw her, but I thought there were a few too many choc-mint ponies for my liking   Just search "chocolate mint mlp". (I had no idea there were that many until I looked it up on DA)

Hahaha, I suppose some of them probably would be more green dominate color than brown tough.

WingsOfNightfall In reply to FizzPuff [2014-10-06 05:52:52 +0000 UTC]

Correct! Many of them are! But mine might be dominantly chocolate with a bit of mint
