Now for the Apple Sisters sibling love comic! :iconlaplz:

Probably not quite as sweet as the last 2, but man was this a complex project!!! :icondragonhot: Lots of use of motion blurr effects as this comic had the most action in it. It was so large that I needed to work on 2 separate parts of it: one with the first 6 panels, the second with the remaining panels. Once both were completed and flattened, I put them together in Paint, no biggy. But even both halves were giving Paint.net problems and it crashed several times when I tried resizing the canvas or cropping to selection, so I had to flatten first. When you have so much layers in such a big file, resizing can be a problem, at least with the programs I use on my computer. "I'm Sorry" was the widest one (which caused a lot of crashing) but this one is the longest one. I try to stick to 1200ish in width from now on, 2000 was far to big for "I'm Sorry". Since "I'm Hurt" was neither the widest or the longest, I think that's the reason it didn't give me much trouble. I also had to do some scaling down of some of the character sprites due to them not being the right size, but it's a good thing Paint.net has a good resizing tool. :nod: This project sure was a tough one and definitely the largest pic I've done so far, but oh well, it all got done eventually. :phew:

So yeah, I can totally see Applebloom doing something like this, that silly little filly! :giggle: And I'm sorry AJ is barely in it, but she kinda only needed to show up once cuz she had some great importance at the end. :nod: What a great big sister she is! :) Maybe someday I'll try to find a way to use Big Mac with either of these two for a future installment of the sibling love comics! :iconthinkingplz:

Anyways, hope you guys enjoy it, this sure was a fun one to work on! :nod:

I just want to say right off the bat how beautiful this comic is. Its visually stunning and vibrant, the colors being incredibly accurate to the show.

It is a very original concept, however I can't lie with this. I have seen concepts like this one before, but this is sort of the first time I've seen it with MLP.

Like I said, you've become proficient at drawing MLP FiM characters, and now we're seeing your ability to draw the young ponies, which is magnificent. And I do like AJ's iconic pose.

It's also another one of those heartwarming, charming moments that fans like me would adore. Its a very lovable, innocent comic about siblings and how they are supposed to treat each other, sort of on par with Sisterhooves Social.

Overall, your comic is well drawn and colored, has a concept and wisdom behind it all bronies should appreciate and indeed stands with your best works.

so in a parallel universe what could be happening is that Applejack saw that Apple Bloom was happy with her apple so Applejack evilly hit the tree causing the apple to float back onto the tree which made Apple Bloom sad so she did a wall kick on the tree and a reverse Pacman but she failed and went hungry :(
