Description
The Fenghuang has one of my favorite designs of the entire book. Information about this creature is not as vast as the long so I had to resort to Wikipedia for basic information. Its primary colors are red, green, yellow, black and white. From this description and references I could find of women in Chinese Nobility, I made her both look like a bird but also unmistakingly a women of power, right down to her feathers.Related content

I just love the fact that you dress Celestia in the 'appropriate' clothes for the creatures that look like they are from different countries, like with this one where Celestia has a kimono kind of attire for this seemingly Chinese theme. It's so awesome! That really gives the pages that extra awesome touch.

I think I put down that the country she's in is based on both Chinese and Japanese culture, like how Equestria is based on a lot of cultures in itself. The leaders are a fenghuang and a long that inexpicitly have a kitsune for a pet.
I made it look like a kimono fully knowing it was a different culture, but thank you very much

Ahh yes; that'd make sense. I think it's a really fun and logical kind of bit there. I just like like Celestia is wearing the kimono as she's visiting the Chinese/Japanese culture-like land. I think it makes it especially great to show that Celestia is a ruler that isn't afraid of taking part in other rulers' cultures. If... that makes sense. XD Haha
You're very welcome.
