I thought it was time to update Nixie’s appearance. When I first created her, she was based heavily on Rarity. This was an attempt to distance herself from her. Her hair is now blue, her tail is braided, and she features a combed-up style on her mane. I also finally decided on a cutie mark: a diaper with a dragon’s tail, based on the love of her two baby dragons, Leon and Parker, though odds are someone already has that cutie mark too.

I didn’t draw a “rear view”, since I felt it was unnecessary.
