Here is the head. I don't mean to brag, but this is pretty dang good if you'd ask me! I nearly forgot to put his goatee in his chin though and just a few minutes after I put the head in to bake, I rushed down and stuck it in (it was previously baked so it was hardened enough) and unfortunately that made some cracks in his chin but you cant see them here. I also put his head on top of some blocks of clay for balancing in the tray and one of them kinda dented the right side of his neck. I believe it may be more visible in the pic of the head and body before this. He also has the wire coming out of the bottom of his neck which will go in a hole in his body. It needs to be trimmed though, it's too long. The wire is also not entirely straight in his head, it has a loop coming around at the end inside his head to keep it from twisting around during baking. I also baked his horns first and then put them on his still-soft head cuz it would be too difficult to have to connect them both on when soft so I decided to harden the horns so they would penetrate the head and stick on. The deer antler nearly fell off when it came out of the oven though.

I used Sculpey III oven back clay. Baked at 275 degrees F for 15 minutes

How do you bake something that's a weird/different shape like this, out of curiosity? I mean, without anything pressing against it so it gets all smooshed? Cause I'd love to practice scuplting more, but...I've always ran into the problem. :P

And he looks great! ^^ I take it the horns were done apart, and then glued on after everything was baked? =3

I baked his horns before his head. I then took the head and stuck the hardened horns in it and baked all 3 of them together. I also baked his limbs before baking the body and then stuck them in the softened body and baked them. I wouldn't recommend this though cuz the arm fell off while baking so there must be better ways to do it.

Discord is without a doubt, the only villain in the show. But the best of the MLP franchise villains.

I dont know why everyone still thinks Luna is this all powerful villian or anti hero who wants to bring down her sister and make a Republic...

That never happend in the show all that was explained was that Luna tried to take over(With no army) so because she tried to bring darkness she was banished. She apologized and is a protagonist. I really dont get it.

Only? What about Nightmare Moon and Trixie and Gilda and all the other villains?

Technically she was when she was Nightmare Moon, but not anymore.

But what does this have to do with the picture anyway?

Im sorry I simple wanted to point something out. Didnt mean to bug you.

But in truth this is a really good picture and a really nice toy.

Gilda seemed to be more of a spoiled brat.
