I think I have a picture of him somewhere in my gallery.

Applejack is a great example of sister. It's a very beautiful story.

So I finally had the time to go browse your gallery...and then this showed up. I instantly fell in love with it (and not just because it featured AJ); the colours, the style, the expression, the story -- you did a brilliant job on this, and I hope you won't stop being awesome!

Thank you very much dude, I'm happy you enjoy it so much!
I do intend to keep being awesome.

You're welcome, mate~

I'm only favorit-ing the first one, because you already have all the thinks in the description! Still, the entire thing is adorable!

I rather like your interpretation (ponification, per se) of the Santa Claws figure.
That he pulls his own sleigh fits seamlessly. It's a very warm picture too. It may be a little late, but might it perchance be made available in wallpaper form?

Thanks!
I could do that, shouldn't be too difficult. You mean, just the Santa image in Applejack's speech bubble?
I'll probably have to do it about a week from now, this week is hectic for me, but I'll make a note of it.

Yep. Just Santa pulling the sleigh.

Ok! I'll try and get that uploaded asap, but my week is horrible, mostly thanks to my dumb university graduation.

Dumb? Oh, I hope it gets better for you.

Ehhh, it's just dumb cause it's 7.30AM, and all my classmates have done better than I have since leaving uni, even though I was one of the best in my class. But it'll be fun seeing some of my uni friends again.

Hmmm. By what standard to you measure their successes (as well as yours)?
Are you where you want to be? Do you think they are where they want to be, themselves?

Most of my ex-classmantes have jobs (non creative) which I have been unable to get, and kinda need the money, but a few have jobs in creative fields that they studied for, that I have been unable to get, though that's mostly for lack of trying. I still haven't even finished a showreel.
I'm not really where I want to be. I love drawing whatever I want, but I wish I was in an animation studio, but I don't have the skills for it. I won't consider myself successful til then. Some of my classsmates have animation jobs (different kinds of animation though).

This definitely needed (or needs...) a DD on Christmas.

Your drawing style is adorable. It fits this comic (all five parts) beautifully ^_^

Thanks, I've often thought ponies and this storybook style went together well.

There's a typo on this page as well.
And in the title of the whole comic, actually.

Is it 'Applebloom' or 'Apple Bloom'? Maaan, I just assumed it was the same way as 'Applejack'.
I was in a rush to get it done before the deadline, I don't want to edit all that now...

Apple Bloom is indeed two words. Counter-intuitive, I know.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Augh. I am the laughing stock of the internet!
Out the window time!
For realzies though, I should have checked my spelling and grammar, but the deadline was making me freak out, especially when trying to put all the panels together, photoshop was making my pc cry, and become slothful, to which I would beg for it to hurry up, as if the deadline were only moments away.
I will fix the spelling after I've responded to these amazing comments. Might leave Apple Bloom's name as is though, that would take longer to do.

There was a deadline? Don't work yourself too hard on our account!

Yeah, the december draw off competition ended Dec 31st, EST. Which actually gave me several hours after my own New Years event, but I wasn't going to be still working on it by that point.
To be honest, it is for your account. Everyone's. All the people who are artists, musicians, writers, and any brony, I wanted to give something back. I've enjoyed so much stuff from this fandom, so while I do enjoy drawing and colouring ponies for myself, a big part of it for me is to make others happy with it. The messages that I got of people telling me this comic made them feel happiness, baww or d'aww and anything at all, made it all the more worth it.

It's Apple Bloom.
You should've just looked at the show's credits...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, but my brain was all 'getitdonegetitdonegetitdonegetitdoneaaaaaaaaahhhhh'. So, typo's. That I still need to fix, augh.
I'll try to be more thorough in future, thanks for bringing it to my attention.

My heart exploded when I read these. I love the style you did it in and the story was heartwarming and adorable. This is just plain ultra-grade awesome.

Thank you! Sorry about your heart, must have been messy.

Indeed. Fortunately the new flash-clone heart works well enough.
