----------------------A quick doodle-scratch thing I did because I had the late-night musing to draw the Apple Family together. So we have young AJ and young McIntosh (Lil' Mac) with my version of their parents, Hard Cider (nicknamed Chief) and Peach Velvet. Peach Velvet is currently pregnant with Apple Bloom in this sketch and the entire family is excited for her arrival, especially Applejack. She never passes up the chance to hear or feel her little sister move around in her mother's tummy, as she's doing at the moment in this sketch. This image would have taken place perhaps a couple of months before the death of Hard Cider, whereas Peach Velvet will end up dying about a month after the birth of Apple Bloom. :CThey were so happy together. ;_;If you're wondering about Hard Cider's size, I have it headcanoned that he was actually the largest and tallest pony to have lived that WASN'T an alicorn, clocking in at a whopping 7’5 at the withers. The Apples are notorious for having tall ponies in their family, but Chief really took the cake; he's where Big Mac and AJ get their size from, while Apple Bloom took more after their mother in terms of body build. If you wanna read the headcanon on the parents, you can check it outSo yeah. I'll just leave this here.As always, feel free to ask questions if you have any, and thanks so much for stopping by! ^.^
