We all know Steve sketches Tony while he's working in his lab.
But I'd like to add:
Tony remodeling his lab so the tiles form small shields with the star.
(kinda like the sun in Rapunzel)

Just a bit of a side by side comparison to see how Ness has changed over the years. Her original reference was created in 2017 I believe? And her new one is from 2019!
I love all of my next gen characters but Nessa holds a special place in my heart since she was one of my very first alongside Retro Dash. She’s a character that’s developed quite a bit over the years; going from just an angsty bully to a lone wolf women looking for her place in the world and willing to go as far as she’s needs to defend those she loves the most.
When I was first making her new reference I didn’t intended to redesign her, but the further I was going along with it the happier I was becoming. I feel her new appearance and color pallet fit much better with her personality when compared to the original.
I don’t really know why I’m saying all this, I just really love my cow baby and wanted to talk about her ♥️🐮♥️

About
Nessa Mae is the only daughter of Fluttershy and Iron Will. Her conception was a surprise, and a risky one at that with Fluttershy faced with the reality that she could either lose her baby or her life if she chose to carry the foal to delivery. Fluttershy being the loving and compassionate mare that she is, chose to bring this rather large infant into the world. Because of Nessa's size and general hybridization of a Minotaur and a Pegasus, she caused a lot of problems during delivery, causing Fluttershy to lose mass amounts of blood and coming close to losing her own life. Thankfully she and her daughter both were in the skillful hooves of nurse Red Heart who worked quickly to keep Fluttershy alive as well as make sure her new bundle of joy was healthy. Because of this entire ordeal, Fluttershy has become permanently scarred, weak, and frail; often having to take days to rest and reincorporate with Iron Will doting on her gently and tentatively after a day that others would consider full of minimal activities. Fluttershy nor Iron Will regret it though, and love their daughter more than you could imagine.
Nessy is a huuuuuge daddy's girl and strives to be like her father (unfortunately) and has a loud and proud attitude, and picks herself up by her bootstraps and faces life head on! Grabbing the bull by the horns some might say! She's a great public speaker and can quickly gain control of any situation, having an almost leaderly disposition, but she can abuse this power. If anything is under her control it is done with yelling, stomping, and a military-esque style of organization. Thankfully she nopony gives her that kind of opportunities very often. Even though Ness does have this powerful and frightening aura about herself, deep down she is a very sensitive and loving friend, especially to Ophelia, who is the Bonnie to her Clyde. Only a lucky few get to see this more calm and collected side of her, and if you see it on accident she may make you regret it.
Like her mother, Nessa has a soft spot for animals. Sea creatures that is. She loves all the fish, whales, dolphins, sharks, etc. everything that the ocean has to offer! Because of this, she picked up the hobby of surfing at a young age, but as you can imagine, a surfing Centaur isn't practical nor elegant. She conquers this hindrance of hers by purchasing potions, elixirs, and salves from Zecora's shop, where the Zebra specifically makes these special concoctions for the Centaur. With these magically enhanced products with her, she is able to transform her larger, lower half into a more Minotaur appearance. It took a while for Zecora to produce a waterproof formula, so many sudden shape shifting out on the waves happened before they found a happy medium! Nessa likes to keep the ocean and its creatures as a private part of her life, and only lets in a special few to experience them with her.
When she isn't playing the lead guitar for Retro's band, Mama's Boy, Nessa runs her own pet shop along with the help of her mother! While her mother handles the more mundane pets such as puppies, kittens, hampsters, etc., Nessa deals in more... unique pets. She handles anacondas, komodo dragons, snapping turtles, alligators, you name it and she'll tame it! Much to Fluttershy's relief, Nessa enjoys these more dangerous animals and prides herself in finding them the most experienced owners to love and care for them. Though, funnily enough, Nessa doesn't have a dangerous pet. Instead she has one of the many offspring of the now laid to rest Angel, who she's lovingly named Mach Punch. She loves this small, feisty hare and honestly takes care of him better than she takes care of herself. She's trained him how to box and scrap with her, and it's her favorite trick to show off to her friends!
Nessa Mae is extremely athletic and health savvy, and spends a lot of time in Sweet Apple Acres with Casey, competing with the stallion in shows of strength. They throw hay bales, run 5ks while pulling apple carts, and even go as far to bench sawn logs (or struggle to). Because of this she's made a close friend with Casey, as well as his little sister, Buck Wild.
At the end of the day, Nessa is kind of a loner; never really going out of her way to see her friends or participate in activities unless urged to do so by Ophelia. Nobody really knows why Ness has this constant black cloud looming over her head, but they try so desperately to pull her out of her gloom just to see her have a good time every once in a while.
Things to note about Nessa Mae when drawing her
- Nessa's natural hair color is pink and it is currently dyed black, so her roots should be visible
- Nessa is NEVER in the form of a Minotaur unless surfing or swimming

Retro Dash stormed down the hallway, the walls seeming to stretch out endlessly before him. He was fuming with rage and embarrassment; How could Ophelia make a fool of him like that? How dare she?!
His hooves echoed on the tiles as he neared the exit. This was his senior year, the most important time in his schooling career! Not only that, but since Casey graduated the year prior, this was really his time to shine with all of the pretty fillies without the giant goofball overshadowing him.
Retro's neck feathers began to ruffle with anger once more. There was no way in Hell he'd have a date to the Hearts and Hooves Day dance now after Ophelia's little stunt...
Ophelia has been in love with Retro Dash for as long as he could remember. They grew up together and were best friends for the longest time; of course some sort of infatuation was bound to happen at some point, right? But for whatever reason, may it be puberty and raging Draconequus hormones, Ophelia's infatuation turned into a slight obsession, and this unsettled Retro.
She was his number one supporter, which he appreciated for the most part, but when will she realized that it can be too much? He cared for her as a friend, but she's embarrassed him for the last time. Retro Dash angrily shook his head to rid his mind of the chaotic princess as he threw open the doors at the end of the hall, blinding sunlight washing over him as he exited the school.
The chilly February light caressed his muzzles and cheeks, taking a deep inhale, he breathed in the cold air. He was ready to clear his mind and renew his mojo. Ophelia wasn't going to get the better of him.
Before he could exhale a massive, sturdy force flanked him hard, knocking the scrawny Pegasus onto the frozen ground.
Winded, he wheezed, "what the hel-", before he could say anything he was shoved once more across the school yard, scoring the ground with his body. His sides burned as the rashing set in. An extremely large being loomed over him ominously, the sun shining behind their massive silhouette. It was a Centaur... None other than Nessa Mae.
"How could you," Nessa began, her image becoming more apparent as Retro blinked the sunlight and debris from his eyes. His right wing ached badly. Nessa yanked the stallion harshly to his hooves by the back of his neck. His wing hung lamely at his side.
The Centaur had her fists clenched, her limb visibly shaking with her wrath.
"Well?!" she shouted at Retro, hot tears sitting in the corner's of her eyes.
The confusion finally left Retro as he realized what was taking place. Nessa had always been Ophelia's guard dog of a friend, never letting anything harm the Draconequus. He scoffed as his cousin towered over him, then grimaced as pain rippled through his wing.
"How could I what? Turn down the precious princess?" he said snottily; Nessa Mae always pulled an attitude into Retro's tone.
A dangerous flash of anger flickered in Nessa's eyes at the tone in Retro's voice. She was desperately holding herself back from wailing on the smaller pony. She swallowed hard, trying to keep her composure.
"Ophelia worked very hard on her proposal," she said through gritted teeth, "you didn't have to respond the way that you did."
Retro glared at her with disbelief. Was she blind?! Or did she completely miss the scene that took place in the hallway? The feathers covering his chest fluffed up defensively.
"She embarrassed me!" He yelled, causing Nessa to Flinch. "Ophelia made a fool of me in front of everypony," he drawled on, his legs beginning to tremble as he dared raise his voice and approach the daunting monster he called family.
"Why do you even care," Retro asked, "if you like her so much why don't you take her? You two freaks would make a memorable couple!"
Hurt crossed Nessa's face as Retro spoke, but the hurt quickly turned back into rage as she no longer could hold herself in restraints. Her bullish anger took hold of her emotions.
"She loves YOU, you fucking pathetic excuse of a Pegasus!" she screeched as she flung a closed fist into Retro's face.
The crack and yelp was starling at first, but satisfying as it became clear that Nessa's fist connected with its target. The entirety of Equestria seemed to have fallen silent in those moments as Retro's mouth and nose spouted blood and gore. His jaw went sideways with the force of Nessa's calculated strike. Nessa thought she'd even seen a tooth flying in those short, glorifying moments.
Retro's skull and body hit the ground once more with a dull thud, his lame wing once again absorbing the impact of his fall. Hot, sticky blood blossomed like maroon flora from his nose and mouth, spilling onto the dirt.
Nessa Mae drew in ragged breaths as she stood over Retro's quivering, bloodied body. Her fists, the left one now bruising, clenched once again at her sides. For a moment she was scared of the damage she'd inflicted on her cousin, but only for a moment.
The Centaur chewed her tongue for a second, quickly becoming calmer now that she'd vented her rage. She glanced over Retro's body once more, noticing the crushed wing under his shoulder and side. She'd hurt him pretty badly...
Nessa gently reached for the Pegasus as he slowly began to sit up, refusing to look at her. She thought she could hear him choking quietly.
"Retro, I didn't mean-" she started, her tone slightly edged with worry.
"Get away from me Nessa," he slurred, his voice cracked as he held back pain.
Retro continued to keep his back to his cousin as he rose up on shaking legs; his side was road-rashed with dirt caking the wound. The blood from his nose was clotting but his face was stained with scarlet trails.
Nessa awkwardly stepped back, now annoyed that he wouldn't hear her apology. She snorted and furrowed her brow, watching as the stubborn stallion gingerly limped out of the school yard, his wing pathetically dragging along on the ground.
"And for your information," Nessa called out, causing Retro to halt and tilt an ear towards her, "I don't even like Ophelia in that way!" she retorted childishly, kicking dirt out towards him.
Turning to head back into the building, Nessa couldn't help but feel a twinge of guilt for harming someone weaker than herself, but she'd be damned if she ever had to see her friend hurt the way she did after Retro's outburst. Hopefully he understood fully what he had done wrong, and would later forgive her for the knuckle sandwich....

I was asked a while back whether or not Nessa Mae and Buck Wild got along, and for the most part they do! But both of them being the spunkiest/rowdiest gals in town, they occasionally butt heads or their teasing goes a little too far. Growing up, Buck Wild spent a lot of time with Nessa because the large Centaur was her babysitter. Along normal babysitting activities such as pretend, crafting, boxing, wrestling, hay bail hurling, and what have you; the two girls grew very close in the short ten years they've spent together. Buck considers Nessa to be the bigger sister she's never had, Nessa considering Buck to be the smaller, more annoying sister she never actually wanted. Buck being loud and obnoxious and overly cocky, often pushed Nessa to her limits, resulting in name calling and "time outs". The time outs being that of sending Buck halfway across the orchard to get some time away from Ness. But today Buck still messes with Nessa and Nessa still entertains her ideas and dreams; often times Nessa takes Buck to the rodeo grounds to practice bucking while Casey stays to work the orchards, or she'll take her to the gym to box out a few playful disagreements they'd had (Nessa almost always letting Buck Wild win).

Question for Nessa Mae:
How tall are you in comparison to your parents?
Answer:
Nessa Mae is very tall when compared to her parents! Well, Fluttershy that is. Though, her mother is the smallest out of the Main Six group, so she seems to be drastically larger than most ponies, when in reality, most normal sized ponies meet her a little above her back!
Her height makes her quite intimidating to most ponies, which she likes of course, and few often approach her. Maybe if she’d smile every once in a while instead of scowling at everyone and wearing her black band shirts she’d have a bigger pool of friends.
Nessa’s size has been a problem since birth, while Fluttershy and Iron Will were expecting a larger than normal foal, they never expected to give birth to a Centaur like their daughter. Because of this abnormal foaling, Fluttershy came within seconds of losing her life due to blood loss during the procedure, lucky to be saved due to Nurse Redheart’s quick thinking and skillful hooves. But because of this, Fluttershy has since become quite frail and sickly, and occasionally has to take breaks from everyday life to recover.

Smile, Nessie!
Tumblr media
“Mom, stop it, you’re embarrassing me…,” Nessa growled from between gritted teeth. “Oh I just can’t help it,” Fluttershy cooed, fluffing up her daughter’s bow, “you just look so cute!” Fluttershy giggled playfully and admired Nessa’s outfit: a black tank top depicting a severed pony’s skull and a black bow to match. Though a bit drab, Fluttershy knew that this was her baby’s “happy” attire. Fluttershy continued to fuss about Nessa’s outfit, straightening it up every couple of seconds ever so slightly. “Oh I just want this picture to be perfect since you don’t allow your father and I to get many,” she stated, “Will is going to be so excited to get one of us through the mail while he’s on his tour! Hopefully it gets to him in time,” Fluttershy whispered in a worried tone. “Are you two ready!?” the photographer called kindly. “That’s us, Nessa!” Fluttershy hurriedly pushed Nessa Mae next to her with her large, spindly wings and draped her arm lovingly around her daughter. “Please smile, Nessie!” she pleaded and pulled her in closer, smiling happily for the camera. Nessa blushed in hot embarrassment as her mother’s arm pulled her in tight and her wing bopped her accidentally in the face. She tried hard not to smile, as for if she did, she would not be maintaining her punkish appearance. FLASH! The camera’s bulb exploded with light as the moment was captured forever: Fluttershy smiling happily as she held her blushing calf close to her chest, biting back a genuinely happy smile. —— Ahhh Nessa Mae and Fluttershy, one of my favorite Next Gen relationships to work with! Nessa can be a bit of a butt in an attempt to maintain a “cool and aloof” appearance, but deep down really loves and appreciates the more soft and cute acts her mother does for her. While their relationship does become strained at times due to Nessa’s defiant behavior, they have an extremely deep bond which helps resolve the tension; most arguments ending in fits of laughter. Fluttershy wants the very best for her punk rock baby, and if that means letting her pretend to be tough, then Fluttershy will do what she can to make it happen.
