I can't even start to imagine the time it must have taken to make! High price but definitely worth it!

...I have a feeling, for that price, a grown man is going to have it in his living room.  Maybe sit on it while gaming ;)

Can you imagine how much more awesome WoW or Diablo or something would be from astride the back of that magnificent steed? 

...Oh crap, I'm going to need a Nightmare Moon one so I can play Dragon Age in style.

Wow! I am super impressed!

It's still probably too small for me though.  >_<

That looks like she was a hefty sum of Minky.
I wonder how much of a profit the artist is getting from her.
Also, I wonder who owns her now.

Or curled up on Discord, spamming the Wabbajack while in his company seems more than appropiate, infact anything to do with Shegorath does.

Okay now that? Is downright astounding. That had to have taken some serious dedication.

Oh wow you are right- the plush is minky!  She must have needed miiiiiles of it http://www.ebay.com/itm/My-Little-Pony-Plush-Life-Size-Princess-Celestia-Friendship-/171156317970?pt=TV_Movie_Character_Toys_US&hash=item27d9b62712

She has this pic on her DA page as the pony compares to an adult-  pretty darned epic I say! http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/291/1/d/untitled_by_karasunezumi-d6qybmc.jpg

Considering the three square miles of minky and the level of difficulty designing and then executing a project like this, I don't think $3K was really so high a price-  high quality hand made plushies of 12 - 14" sell for around $300/$500 after all...

The auction says "freight" so it would have to be crated and shipped via UPS truck (at fairly significant expense).


Found more info on her DA page!

OMG, imagine a giant Discord that you could curl up in like a beanbag chair!!  Maybe have a cupholder in his front paw and/or talon.  This needs to exist!  :iconclap:
