My Little Pony Custom Princess Celestia G1 (Lofi + Rain + Crafts) Sculpt Paint Rehair OOAK OC MLP G4

A couple of months ago I made a custom of Nightmare Moon, a My Little Pony G4 character, in G1 style. A few people commented on what they would like to see next, and that was: Princess Celestia! So here it is, my second G4 OC pony. I can luckily say that I learned a few things from NM I was able to use here, and as usual, I made some new mistakes :D I'm also trying something new in terms of sound/music. This is what I listen to when I want to focus or relax: A mix of rain sound and lofi music. Please let me know if you think it's completely bananas xD
