Blazing Apple by AssasinMonkey Blazing Apple by AssasinMonkey
Almost didn't make today's stream due to network issues but they got resolved last minute! So here we are, absolutely happy with the episode. another mythical creature! With Applejack action!!!

Could not do anything else. Applejack, Chimera, that's just a perfect choice. Though to be fair there were quite a few interesting things to make. From the final destination to the Bow tie CMCs.

Anyhow, instead, have a heated fight. Applejack was great this episode hehe.
Nice new locations, new beast, fireproof hoof boots. Fun!

This is a very intense picture. All of the colors that your use blend perfectly with eachother, and the angle and positioning are wonderful. I enjoy how you had used the fire detail to make your picture the best it could be. The tigers expression is also very detailed, as I could never do such a thing.

The background was probably not your priority, yet still looks amazing. All of the reds and oranges and browns flow greatly together, and illustrate a beautiful picture. I especially like all the fire specks being flung up as the creature (Forgot what it was called XD) jmps on the plants.

I also like to look at the positioning. You were able to capture the single frame of action, and put it all together. The creatures position looks a bit like how a cat may be positioned, but is probably placed like the to show the emphasis of motion. Appplejack does look more pony-like, though her legs could be bent more. but that sort of thing is only noticeable when looking closely, and this looks just perfect from a bit of a 'distance.'

Overall, great picture! I think that you did well at illustrating such a powerful scene, and I applaud you! Good job! :D

It's a great picture, nice composition, palette, use of chiaroscuro...

...the focus on the Applebutt is unfortunate.  Unless that's what you meant to do.  In which case...uh, it's unfortunate.

But very nice otherwise! :-)

This rocks in so many different ways! I have no words. Just know that as a cat lover, I can't fave every cat-related picture online, but yours is one of the tip-top-awesome-sauce ones that made it into my fave bucket. :)

just impressive and epic. The colors give an oppressive feeling.

The characters are lovely done. 

I'm just not convinced by Applejack's pose. It's not easy to understand what she's doing (preparing to jump ? turning in her running ?). I would have drawn her face more toward the monster.

Her head might be slightly off in that regard yea. She's kinda running around in the circle that the Chimera makes, keeping an eye on its movements

in the end, it's an illustration, we need it to convey tension and feels.

Hehe yea, the first reaction can be very important and how the eye is guided or at least with the biggest impact.
Still nice to spot those little things for the long run either way :)

You know, I'm a die hard appleplot fan. But this is one of the few instances in which I wish I could see AJ's face instead. Applejack's heroism, bravery, and cunning in this scene rivals that of Daring Do. And this art totally captures the spirit of that fateful encounter.
