Its so funny how fucking Weird my version/interpretation of Michael is

He doesn't give 2 shits about the law. He thinks its fine to stalk someone as long as he has 'good reason' for it. He is entirely incapable of reacting normally to objectively insane situations. He loves making references to the time he was purple once. He LOVES testing and fucking around on the attractions in his restaurant. He can't die (thanks Remnant). He is very much lacking in empathy. He fails picking up on social cues half the time and the other half he completely ignores them. He's either the employee of the month or gets fired a week in. He helped build an entire horror attraction just to kill his father and he was excited to do it. He's completely obsessed with Sammy Emily. When he IS trying to be normal he looks and sounds like a serial killer. He makes dark jokes he absolutely should not be making

People don't make Michael unhinged enough

Tell us more about Elstar!

*slams hands down onto desk* YEAH OKAY!

This is Elstar Sparkle, and she is my go-to TwiJack foal. I have her more fleshed out than any of the others, and especially in one particular ‘verse of mine, so here we go:

She might be a unicorn, but she’s all about Sweet Apple Acres. She and her earth pony sister Appleshine (who I have yet to redesign properly) are planning to run the farm together.

Elstar takes after Twilight in that she loves to research. El’s focus is more on farming than magic, however. She’s always looking up new ideas, new techniques, running growth experiments and trying to come up with new cultivars of apple.

Her magic itself is reasonably strong, given who her parents are, but she was never all that interested in studying magic itself, much to Twilight’s chagrin. (It’s okay though, because their third and youngest foal, Twilight Silk [also To Be Designed], is definitely into magical stuff.)

Oh! Her name comes from the Elstar apple:

I was looking up apple cultivars one time for good AJ foal names and this one jumped out at me. It feels like it really just fits, y’know?

This is Appleshine! The middle TwiJack foal after Elstar Sparkle. She’s the brawn to Elstar’s brain on the farm, not that Shine isn’t pretty smart herself. She’s just not that fussed about academia. She can translate her older sister’s botannical ramblings into concepts that can be comprehended by the average pony, for example.

She’s pretty chill, she tries to take everything in stride.

I’m gonna go on and see if I can design Twilight Silk now. Silk is... you’ll see.

i’m doodling things and these came out cute. they’re blurry ‘cause they’re small

[idoodlewhatiwant]

I wanted to do a quick sketch of all of ‘em together. :O

really really really quick background because Silk is practically invisible otherwise rip

One of my warm-up sketches today turned out much better than expected!

Will probably be cleaning this one up into a full thing once I’ve finished the commission I’m working on. 👌👌👌

My finger is feeling a little bit better, so have a potential TwiJack foal!

I have designed... quite a few of these over the years (i’m lov designing mixes of things [see my horrible mistake of a 6-pony oc ship and all their foals, gods], & definitely see the appeal of all the next-gen stuff), but none of them have really, really worked, and I think it’s because I was only using the colour palettes from Twilight and Applejack themselves. While their colours are fairly complimentary (they got that hella good colours of sunset vibe), they don’t exactly mix together in as satisfying a manner as I would like. I feel like the fusion I made of them was alright, but foals? I quite like the peachy colour their coats blend into, but... anyway. I really ought to be using their parents’ colours too, which is what I’ve done here.

Applejack now has the best pool of relatives to dip into for gathering potential colours and design bits. We now know what her parents looked like, and two grandparents, so there’s a lot to work with.

So I borrowed heavily from Pear Butter (lighter coat) and Twilight Velvet (white mane and eyes). I also tried to channel a bit of Grand Pear in the grey-purples and shape of the mane, while also keeping it AJ and Twilight Sparkle-y.

I think she’s pretty cute.

Edit: oh heck white mane on the Tumblr White Background doesn’t work, wait a tick

Edit again: there!

Working on a commission at the moment! :D

Needed to do somethin’ messier for a cooldown sketch so have some Cloud Break judging her family’s drama.

She just wants to grow up and kick some clouds and not have to worry about stuff like dangerous magical artefacts and dangerous magical villains. You know, like a normal pony.
