“Come on! I’ll show you around.”Updated 23/09/2017-Posted a high resolution image with more detailsGave up after so much detailing… (This one is only half the size of the working image). I’m not seeing an end to this. So I’ve decided to call it done. Thanks to everyone who gave suggestions for this one!Two things I find weird with the overall composition: (1) Twilight’s extended arm (2) The high contrast of the pool at the bottom center of the image[Outdated]An exploration of a possible city plan for CanterlotPosting because I’d like to hear your thoughs on how the city might work (at least visually).I’ll keep working on this and update when I have more ideas. Currently it kind of looks more like a small vacation resort or an amusement park…MLP (c) HasbroUpdated 13/08/2017

well according to the episode which should not be there are crystal mines underneath the castle. maybe whatever’s in that huge underbelly has to do with the mining operation.
, if it were build by flying horses, with a waterfall and pseudo-sky-castle with art-deco blimp airports.
It has an ankh-morpork rimworld reel to it, minus all the satire of that series.
Great that you can make out individual buildings now. Districts add to an environmental narrative.
I have one huge question about the struture, and the mlp movie only made it worse:
The foundation is pretty much multiple huge half spheres, with significanrly more volume in them than in all the buildings on it.
What is celestia hiding in all that basement space?
Even all of that together still fails to fill all the half-sphere space, to a point where the volume may be mostly hollow, like a huge biospshpere of a centripedal-rotating spaceship.
That area alone would make a great setting for a dungeon-crawler, filled with mythical creatures who claim some of its rooms as their home.
Dwarf fortresses dwarfs in comparison to what you may find in the basement of canterlot.
whatever is in there, it sure lacks gates or windows to the outside
, and all entrances to it may as well go trough the mountain, most of them may be flodded by its high altitude aquifers.

season 2 isnt canon
Oh my You are right! Thats one of my favorite movies.
Makes the design even better
Its beautiful. And definitely worth every bit, think i can lose myself in it figuring out all the stories that may be going on in every detail every building and all around areas there are.
200% Awesome!!!
It is also possible that some form of magic is being used to support the suspended structures. Remember Cloudsdale?
Also, those must be some incredible masons/builders they have, using some extraordinary strong materials to justify unsupported skywalks and fountains and minarets.

The view from those towers must be incredible, no matter what direction you look.
