Ponified Buddha statue. Or more precisely, the bodhisattva named Amitābha. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AmitC481bha if you are interested) I figure if I’m going to engage in some cultural appropriation I should at least be self-aware about it, and try to be respectful.
Body is also derived (with a bunch of editing) from a CC-0 asset found at http://www.blendswap.com/blends/view/70512
The original model has a swastika on the chest, since that is a symbol common to many flavours of buddhism. For obvious reasons, I changed that so a sunburst, since it is appropriate within pony.
