my Rarity brazilian costume had such ridiculous possitive reception, I was really expecting that much! I was encouraged to do the same with the other ponies of the cast and well judging by a past poll I did, Applejack won with a little bit of advantage over the other ponies, I was expecting somepony like Pinkie Pie or Rainbow Dash to win, but I guess favorites now are graviting towards Applejack and Rarity.
OK, let's talk about the costume, not gonna like, I took me less than 10 minutes to come up with a design and sketch it! I based myself on those cliche indian clothing very seen on media, like Pocahonta's dress, something like that for example. I see a relationship with this and Applejack southern culture. She wouldn't be wearing so much bling like Rarity, so I reduced the amount of jewerlry on her, also the makeup (if you don't count the huge fake lashes she's using). I initially designer her with a corse, but when I started painting I desisted because it would have just too much going on there, she would look overcharged so I changed that by those small crystal fragments. I dunno, I think she would look weird with a middle section corse while she walks on 4 legs. I'm glad I removed it at the end. Hope you like the design of her boots :) I know I tried to make her look sexy, but am I the only one that is a little, not too much, just a tiny bit frightened by the look on her face, by those vibrant eyes, and that slightly evil smile? It could be just ideas of mine, AJ is sexy and yes, I made her showing her butt on purpose Published: Mar 31, 2014
The art's name "Applezinha pronta para o carnaval!" translates to "Applezinha ready for the carnaval." This suffix -zinha is a diminutive suffix, literally making her name "Appley" or a more natural way of thinking about it, "Jackie".
