Description There's a new ship in town.

I so loved Rarity's dress in the Scootaloo episode, I just had to draw her in it. And AJ appeared almost by itself in this piece.

Rarity's always beautiful, obviously, but damnit if AJ doesn't look great in chaps, too.

hey can't blame me its AJ And rarity's fault for being so cute already. and you drawing them in those cute outfits isn't helping them be less cute lol. but it would be very adorable to see them switch cloths ^^

My goodness, so much Rarijack disapproval in the comment threads today! But I imagine that's because you are or were also (seemingly) well-known for drawing AppleDash fanart prior to this. Something that I imagine would cause some dissension in the ranks.

Whatever the case may be though, I know that I myself have been a Rarijack fan virtually from the time I first joined the fandom, and as time has gone on I've watched it go from being regarded as something of a crack-pairing (because these two are supposedly too different to work, even though they actually have a lot in common where it counts and as recent season three episodes have proven they actually do get along very well and are close friends) to being a relatively popular and well-respected ship, which has been extremely interesting for me to witness! And whether or not it's a pairing you actively support, you've definitely done a lovely job with this picture; you've captured their surface differences beautifully with Applejack's grubbiness and rugged leather chaps to Rarity's impeccably-groomed appearance, even down to her feminine poise in the way she's leaning against the railing (I really loved that dress in the Scootaloo outfit as well, by the way). I love that contrast between them and find it very cute myself, so kudos to you on a really lovely piece of art, dear!

Oh my god, thank you so very much for that comment. That sweetened my day incredibly.

But yeah, some of my watchers and friends are die-hard Appledasher, so the disapproval kinda make sense. And I'm sure most of them are only jesting because they know how much I love Appledash.

I actually had a thing for Rarijack since the very beginning of the show, especially episode 3. It wasn't really a popular ship back then, like you say, but I always found them alluring together. Then Appledash entered my mind and I kinda forgot about Rarijack. At least until I discovered your lovely artwork. You're definitely one of the reasons that fueled my interest in Rarijack. And that's why this comment from you means so much to me. I always adored how you drew those two together. So full of emotion and capturing their beauty perfectly.

And at ever since the ending of Episode 2 of Season 3 this ship is at least on the same level as Appledash for me. (But don't let my watchers know. )

So for me it also definitely turned from something of a crack-pairing to something more serious and beautiful.

Thank you so very much for liking this piece. Getting approval from the Queen of Rarijack is amazing. Have a great day!

WhiteDiamondsLtd In reply to RatofDrawn [2012-12-17 09:46:07 +0000 UTC]

Oh this is such a beautiful and fabulously generous comment, thank you so very much! I'm truly flattered to hear that you enjoy my work so, and feel that it's ever had any sort of impact on you, and as for this picture you are very welcome; the pleasure is truly all mine. You definitely captured what I love about their contrasting yet complimentary dynamic here, and the picture certainly deserves praise no matter what... whatever ship(s) you decide to focus on in your future artworks I hope you will keep up the good work!

Oh and don't worry, your secret shall remain safe with me then. ^_~ Thank you again for the wonderful compliments!

I'm just ragging on Rat XD but yes, it's mostly because of his unfaithfulness to appledash!
I do however know how the scales can be balanced... seeing AppleDash from you! (i've always wanted to see that happen XD)
Only then will the world be back in balance!

WhiteDiamondsLtd In reply to Tchernobyl [2012-12-17 09:54:32 +0000 UTC]

Hahaha well first off, thank you very much for your interest in my work then, I do sincerely appreciate it! And secondly, while I don't have anything against AppleDash and I do appreciate the sentiments, I'm afraid that the chances of me ever drawing it myself are probably quite slim... I am and always have been immensely loyal to my ship you see and honestly, I don't know if I'm even physically capable of drawing Rarity or Applejack with anypony but each other at this point (it's probably too ingrained in the muscle memory of my drawing hand or something... )! I hope it's really not too big of a disappointment, and at least you know you still have dear RatofDrawn to count on!

Tchernobyl In reply to WhiteDiamondsLtd [2012-12-17 15:59:14 +0000 UTC]

Awww. It does make me sad, actually! I'd always hoped to see AppleDash from you. While I appreciate your art, the ship doesn't agree with me at all! XD

Tell you what! Do it in secret, and send it only to me! No one else needs to know of your "betrayal" >_>

Unlike Ratofdrawn. Who made it public!

WhiteDiamondsLtd In reply to Tchernobyl [2012-12-17 20:55:54 +0000 UTC]

I'm sorry dear. Just as you're never going to write a Rarijack fanfiction, I'm sure, I could and would not ever even consider betraying my beloved ship! Drawing anything else would just feel wrong to me and I couldn't agree with it. Honestly, even if someone tried to commission me to do so someday, my heart just wouldn't allow it and I'm afraid I would have to respectfully decline. Sorry!

Tchernobyl In reply to WhiteDiamondsLtd [2012-12-17 21:01:10 +0000 UTC]

This makes me terribly, terribly sad and yes, I totally would commission you for it! Your style is just so beautiful... it's a great, great shame that it shall lack Appledash
It's not so much a betrayal, as a... let's say, being forced at gunpoint to do it. Then you can deny all responsibility! XD

(i beg you to reconsider~ )

WhiteDiamondsLtd In reply to Tchernobyl [2012-12-18 06:33:21 +0000 UTC]

I am sorry, but I really just have no desire to draw AppleDash... just because I have nothing against it doesn't mean I really like or support it either, you must understand (and no offense or slight to any present company intended, of course!). I appreciate your understanding.... I'll always be loyal to my own ship just as I'm sure you'll always be loyal to yours.

And thank you once again for the very kind compliments. <3

brilliant, just brilliant i say you nail both of them perfectly, AJ the hardworking, tough, not afraid to get all dirty and sweaty, and Rarity the beautiful, elegant, clean freak. I really don't know what else i can say about it, i'm just blown about how well you this, i actually have tears in my eye because of how amazing this is, i think this draw best show the difference between these two and show how well they go together as well , i'm honored to favorite this drawing

I still await the version with Dash replacing Rarity. Don't even need to change the mane, just change the colors of her coat/eyes/mane, and make it a wooden horn. Voila!
