Science has proven that sleepovers improve studies by 16%.
I fidgeted with this image more than I should have. It took a lot longer than it should have. I’m about 85% happy with the results. I avoided real shading due to the way in which I colored the image. I could have re-colored it, but I’m itching to move onto other drawings.
This image originally started out as a sequel to my, “Bring forth the day”, and, “Bring forth the night” images. It was to have both Celestia and Luna with the sun and moon on their respective sides.
I then tried drawing Celestia’s wings at their full wingspan. It looked horrendous and I could not get the wings to look right. I abandoned and almost stopped working on the image. I then came back and popped lil’ Twilight on there and the rest is history.
This image was …

In my headcanon, Celestia raises the sun with full bedhead, because there isn’t enough light before morning for her to make herself proper.
 
Assuming she gets bedhead, of course.
