Description
~BubbblllyyyWallpaper for all of you! I appreciate all the watches, comments, and encouragement many of you had given. I know I don't really reply to them, but I do acknowledge.
Every single compliment makes me wanting to do more, striving to do better. I still have a loooooooooooooooooooooong way to go.
Bubble tutorial from one of the ImagineFX magazine. Forgot which issue since I've already returned it to the library.

Oh my, thanks for this in-dept critic! I would see if I can make those changes and get to an update.
I've never tried to go for full realism in my paintings. I've trying to achieve a mix between the show original style coupled with fundamentals in art, like lighting, values, forms, and composition etc. It's kinda like what Cosmicunicorn is doing, but with my own style, of course.
Semi-realism, if you will, because full realism is really not exactly feasible.

I love these pics with brush stroke effects, simply brilliant. I find the most enjoyment in imagining the texture on my hand, whether from what surface the picture was painted on or how it would feel if I were to run my hand through the hair and skin if it were a 3d object. The temperature, a type of stone or tapestry....
Anyone that can invoke that type of extrasensory stimulus with just a picture, online or otherwise, they have my respect (if that means anything XD). Awe inspiring work.

This is one of the sweetest MLP images I've ever seen! I really really love this, the textures, composition, and colors, and her expression is priceless and sweet.
Critique-wise I can't add much except for maybe three things: The small bubble in her hair at the top is visually distracting (in this MLP context): At first glance it's almost like a unicorn horn, made worse (to my eye) by the line of flow of her ear and hair - it sort of forms a triangle with the bubble as an apex.
Also, I understand what you did with the space on the left, but to my eye it's too much negative space that really tries to pull my eyes away from Derpy.
And maybe, maybe... just the tiniest shade darker for her eyes, though I think I understand why you might have chosen the warmth you gave them.
Other than that, I have nothing but praise for this image. You really convey a lot of affection for Derpy in this. Very nicely done!

My only critique: Too small to be my wallpaper.
I need this somewhere. Gotta have it. Anyone know any good ideas where to place this?

I know I already commented on this, but I forgot to say that you should make more like this! I love the style you used. Especially the eyes!

If you say that you have a long way to go, then I can't wait to see what your future holds.
This art style also kind of reminds me of some of Imalou's works. Do you know of him?

I think you meant her*
And yes, I do know of her works. I like her style in painting using SAI. That digital water colour effect is hard to not adore.

Yes, her. Sorry, I just default to male nominatives when the gender of the person escapes me. English language and all that jazz.

Because of me modding a lot I looked at this and tought well it's good but the background needs work. But then I realised that the colours actually pulled my view away from the left side of the drawing(where it's just plain gray) and focused it on the face of derpy and the placement of the bubbles made sure I did not return to that gray area. Either you did it on purpose or not I don't know but I do know that it's at the least worthy of a compliment. So I commend you for that nice visual trick.

That's actually what all artist would do; to constantly pull the viewer eyes to the subject matter, which in this case is Derpy herself.
The boring greyish-ness is actually to balance the composition.

YOu would be suprised how few people actually manage to do it on this level. Well at least on DA that is.

Very nice work on this! The bubbles look real and Derpy seems quite enamored with them.
