FIXED: So rendering the psd via photoshop removed a ton of SAI-specific luminance from the original image that i didn’t notice was gone. (You can notice it if you compare, luminance in the eyes and iris, in the mane, and shading in the trees.) It left the eyes a lot more dull.

In case you think she looks a bit young, that’s cause she is! I wanted to capture the innocence of a young adult celestia before her conflict with luna :3Finally finished her!! Only took like 30-40 hours total >.> I’m 100% happy with this picture and could not have hoped for a better turnout ^- So cute! So pretty! So kawaii! Look at dem eyes, dat mane, dat flank. Mmm. 

Nothing like a cool, refreshing dip in your favorite stream to wash away the cares of the world! Celestia’s probably my favorite pony due to aesthetics, though I do like luna, twi and fluttershy. I couldnt have done this pic without the support of my patrons!
