Ah, the old thousand mile stare that represents a hundred different emotions that all wrap back to what gleam lay beneath the eyes. The art is as detailed as it would ever need to be, the best of which porbably being AJ's ruffled mane acquired perhaps from her emotional dagger, or the sprint prior to locating her sister.There is something to be said for subtly. I am very fond of your artistic decision to not make Applebloom's death obvious visually, because it forces viewers to empathize with Applejack's expression for more information.While the mere concept of dramaponies is done in all different ways, that doesn't necessarily mean this image has any appeal redacted from it. Ponies are malleable and there is nothing wrong with exercising how dynamic you can make a character through your own take of them in artwork. What it DOES mean, though, is that the most common type of dramapony art I have seen is the death of a beloved character, and a fellow beloved character reacting to such an event. The concept is not too original, but the execution you've provided is absolutely beautiful and turns this into one of the defining ways to pull off such a concept.Truly a fantastic piece.
