Princess Celestia

To make Sunbutt, I had to extend the torso, neck, and legs of Andrew Harvey's base pony design by two studs. She stands four studs taller than the average Lego pony at the ears, before taking her horn into account, which is also longer than any other pony's. Since her wings also had to be larger than even Luna's, they've become my most complex wings yet, complete with an extra hinge to give them a bend. Lego Luna is pretty large compared to most of my Lego ponies, yet Lego Tia is such an absolute unit that she towers over even her.

 

Since I've already done the wavy-hair thing with Luna, I decided to base Lego Celly on her appearance in the comics, which I think is more interesting. This meant that the color blocking was the trickiest part, since it's not very distinct in the comics, so a lot of it boiled down to interpretation and just whatever looked "about right."

 

Her cutie mark should be yellow, but since I couldn't find a piece that looked like the sun, anything yellow there stuck out like a sore thumb. I went with a gold round plate because at least that fits her color scheme.

 

Also her crown has a golden sausage in it :)
