You Are A Mighty King Indeed by Pixie

INSTRUCTIONS: Build a castle of any size out of unusual objects.

Make sure you have all the necessary castle architecture such as a tower, a gate, and a courtyard.

Hi SFØ, Long time no see.

A few disclaimers before I continue. For starters, this praxis has a lot of colors. Those with epilepsy best only view this with adult supervision, and those with senistasia should put on headphones. :D

The second is that the pictures are blurry. sorry guys.

Lastly, this is a much belated wedding present for an amazing woman who is a hero of mine but whom I want to catch up to in points soon. She writes awesome tasks which are very fun to do.


Praxis Time!

It all started when a few of my Unicorn/pegasus/earth ponies and I got together. We had many a conversation, and at one point, one of them whispered *whisper whisper whisper* to me

I can't tell you any more then that because good friends don't tell other friends secrets. But she told me I could tell you there was a castle involved.

So a castle was built!

It started like this

It was built with this

It progressed, but ultimately ended up like this

and this

However, if you want the full story, you will have to flip though the pictures and read all the captions!
Love and hugs,
Pixie

Unicorns tend to nest toward warm colorful cuddly things, so there is no better place for their castle home to be built

This house has a Ty Odin who is pretty obsessed with chicken and dumplings, so this house has a lot of bisquick.

They continue to be exciting!


It's starting to look like more then a pile!

With butterfly, fairy bowl, painting and a fountain with real water!! Alyssia and her lover (who I've never named but has something inside of him that smells like vanilla) can nuzzle noses.


The moat!

It goes almost all the way around the castle like a real moat should!

A castle of curries and rainbows? I would. .. erm. Whatever you do with castles. Take pictures probably. Build Escherian stairwells. But definitely not use it as a backdrop.

Unicorns like rainbows. It may not be the most aesthetically conventional, but I haven't yet taken a college level aesthetics course so I couldn't have known better.

This reminds me of my favorite game as a child: to build little houses for my tiny toy animals.

I love the detail, and the food based construction.
