AKA Pathfinder Ponies.
For those of you who don't read journal posts, let me explain. I'm currently running a Pathfinder game and I had this silly idea to remake the Mane 6 from My Little Pony as Pathfinder characters. So I gave it a little thought and decided who would be which class, most were easy, but Rarity chose to be the tricky one. I got it though and started drawing them up. I didn't include Spike, but may in the future.
I wanted to draw them in more of an anthro style, while keeping the line quality and visual esthetic of the show. I think this works out fairly well, though I do wonder how their legs bend at the knees ^.^; Generally speaking, I'm happy with their heights, and yes, I see Rainbow Dash as the runt of the group. Oh, I purposely went out of my way to incorporate their cutie marks into their outfits, of them I really like how Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy's worked out.
I suppose I should tell you who is which class, from left to right:
Twilight Sparkle is a Wizard, primarily because she gets a lot of her spells from her books.
Rainbow Dash is a Ranger, she seems to be the one to go off ahead of the group to check things out.
Applejack is a Barbarian, I figure she is following in the footsteps of Big Mac, who was also a barbarian...until he took an arrow to the knee.
Fluttershy is a Druid, She as a thing for animals.
Rarity is a Bard, because of the episode with the Diamond Dogs. Her performance medium is sewing.
Pinkie Pie is a Rogue, mad ninja skills and general just popping up out of nowhere.
I know you all have your own ideas of who should be what, and I'd be curious to hear what they are below.
This picture shows them at the start of their adventuring career, so level 1. But if I have the time and inclination, I may draw them at level 20-ish.
I am actually considering selling prints of this, and individual prints of each pony. Though not that I've posted it, I'm now a little iffy on that idea. At the very least, I know I'm going to make proper backgrounds, in the MLP style, if I do.
I also considered drawing up a short strip, their first encounter, but I don't know if it will happen. We'll see.
So there you have it, they were fun to work on and I hope you like.

I see that you're making a couple of swaps from the common choices.
Switching Rarity and Pinkie around isn't that much of a change, (the classic bit is to have Rarity as a social rogue), and I could see making Dash a ranger. I'm not sure if barbarian works for AJ, I'd be more likely to make her a brawler, (from the Advanced Class Guide, a cross between monk and fighter).
As for drawing them at high level, there is a good case to be made that the Mane 6 would have mythic tiers. From the show and movies, I could easily justify them being 5th Tier, (Twilight being 6th), the comics might bump them up one more.

I wasn't even aware of the fact that I was switching Rarity and Pinkie Pie. Yeah, Pinkie Pie could have gone either Rogue or Bard, I guess in my mind it felt like more fun to make her the Rogue.
My choices came from the Core Rulebook, but if I expanded beyond that, I suspect they would all be classes that aren't in the core book. Isn't there a Trickster class for Rogues? With Applejack, she didn't feel right as just a fighter and I can see her charging into battle with a roar. Brawler could be an interesting alternative.
Mythic Mane 6, that rolls ff the tongue almost too well >.O Also, might ave to look at the Mythic book.

This was a fairly big discussion a while back, with the class choices most settled on being[1]:
Twilight - Wizard
Rarity - Rogue, specifically a social rogue.
Fluttershy - Druid
Rainbow Dash - Barbarian
Applejack - Ranger
Pinkie Pie - Bard
As I said, switching the class choices for Rarity and Pinkie isn't that big a deal, (a diplomancer Bard build is similar to a social Rogue, and a showoff Rogue is all but a Bard without spells).
I disagree that all of them would be non-PFRB classes. Twilight might be an Arcanist and Rainbow would make for a very good fit as a Swashbuckler but that's it.
[1] Getting used for the comic "Friendship is Dragons" did help lock them in.
[2] Focus on Bluff, Diplomacy, Disguise, Intimidate, and Sense Motive first with Chr as the main attribute.

I should have know that this subject had all ready been thoroughly discussed :)
Of the choices, I'm actually surprised I got Applejack and Rainbow Dash right, if reversed.
I didn't mean to suggest that they should be non-PFRB classes, just that I could see them as such. Personally, I don't have a problem with them all as core classes.
I should check out "Friendship is Dragons" again, and thanks for the feedback :)

But Pinkie the Rogue has a present behind her back...Which you could see better if Rarity wasn't in the way.
That's two that would flip Pinkie and Rarity, interesting. Tell me, I haven't seen past season 2, has Rarity done anything particularly rogue-like in the later seasons?

My class choices would be Twilight as a wizard (her Intelligence being her greatest ability score), Pinkie would be a bard (since she sings all the time), Fluttershy is a druid (being the animal lover), Applejack would be a ranger (since she's the outdoors type), Rainbow Dash is a rogue (high Dexterity score, especially after Dungeons & Discords gave her that class, plus she stole a book from a hospital), and Rarity would be a sorcerer (that high Charisma score, plus she's less studious than Twilight the wizard). Still, a great set of characters with Pathfinder classes for each of them. :)
