You call THIS simple?! No, this is far from anything basic. Of course, what stands out the most about this picture is the landscape. It is incredible detailed and pretty to look at. However, I personally feel like it's too pretty. You see, the whole idea of the episode is that the two families were so caught up in beating each other and proving themselves as the best, that they didn't realize that they were causing destruction to the environment around them. I feel like the scenery should be a bit grittier and deathlike to emphasize the misery that the two families are instilling onto the environment. Perhaps Ma Hooffield and Big Daddy McColt could be arguing over how the other has ruined their surroundings, and that's what makes them feud even more! That's just an idea. Now with that said, the landscape is still gorgeous, and the way in which the two earth ponies are arguing is interesting to look at. I just feel there should be more of a reiteration of how damaging the tension has been. Still though, keep up the tremendous work, AssasinMonkey!
