Rainbow Dash, my first acrylic painting

[Bronyette 835]

Well I dug out an extremely old canvas and decided to paint a pony.:3

So I chose Rainbow Dash. This painting was just about trying to get the feel of the paint, so I think I succeeded.

 

If anyone has any tips or tricks or a critique it would be greatly appreciated.

 

Painted completely in acrylics.

Time taken: 2 hours roughly.

Sorry its uploaded sideways. I can't get on a computer right now to fix it.

This is pretty good, I always enjoy some good fanart, and this is awsome. I really like the eyes, they're the coolest part in my opinion.

Thank you! I have a certain style with the eyes that isnt too well represented in this painting.:3 But the eyes are always the funnest to paint.

The eyes caught me too. They are beautiful, enchanting even. I am not a fan of the orange stripe around the outside though that is just opinion. Proportions and hues are spot on.

Yeah, now looking over it, it was a bad idea. I was going to originally do the rainbow around her but thought that was a bit too much so I just painted the rest blue. x.x I still have a lot to learn about design.
