Eh. I say AJ has higher skill level. Or that sculpting Crystals isn’t the same as Ice.

See my other post.
 
It’s really funny how many people just don’t get that Twilight’s dumb because she’s not an arthorse, yet didn’t delegate the carving to one of her four arthorse friends, including the one who has Gems as her special talents or the one who grew up on a rock farm and could have made a working copy through sheer brute force of personality..

She’s always been portrayed as very multi-skilled. It might be an earth pony trait to have such a diversity of skill, just look at all the random things Pinkie Pie is good at.

Ability to sculpt crystal is hardly directly correlating with one’s academic intelligence.

So any opinion that differs from yours is automatically shitposting? If so, then why aren’t you calling all the others that mentioned Twilight being less intelligent than she thinks she is shitposters as well. Asshole.

Sometimes it just seems too convenient that she seems to be a mare of endless talent. It’s almost like they’re trying to say “look she’s not just a farm pony who can do nothing but kick trees”, but it comes off as improbably diverse. That’s just my thoughts though…

To be fair, Twilight’s isn’t all that bad. But yeah, AJ would have been the mare for the job. Where the hell did she learn to carve like that anyway? What other crazy skills does she have that we don’t know about?
Techy Pony

To be fair, the heart Twilight carved is entirely accurate, and perfectly geometric. If it were made of something that looked better, like crystal or ice, it would look better. Since both Twi and AJ scratched their carvings, I’d say Twi’s carving is perfectly good, the problem being the parent material.

It wasn’t supposed to be a false heart, Twilight just assumed that the celebration required a relatively generic crystal heart decoration.
 
It’s not like they were originally planning on fooling the crystal ponies regarding the fake heart.
 
It likely didn’t seem prudent to make the heart look better than it did.

Applejack is better at sculpting. Twilight is better at drawing. Both are artistically skilled with different mediums.

Twilight used an arbitrary method called magic.
 
It doesn’t make sense and it’s totally illogical. But hey. It’s fucking magic. You go Twilight! So smart!

Twilight’s looks more like the actual crystal heart then AJ’s, even if its bad.
