Another background mare, another friendship student. This is Fire Flicker, she can be seen listening to one of Twilight's lectures.
When I saw her in StartledFlowerPony's database, she immediately caught my attention with that crazy, yet super cool hairstyle! You can't see her tail here, but that is also styled in a really unique way.

I decided to keep the thicker outlines I experimented in the Fuchsia Frost portrait, since everyone including me seems to like them, while I tried something different with the background. Not a cutiemark pattern, this time, but acrylic paint strokes. :)

I hope you like it! ^{^} I'll be uploading a flat, non shaded version separately.
