Halloween Pony Art, any feedback please?

[Aisling Ink 195]

So here is another work I made for Nightmare Night, I tried coloring the whole thing in a different way from usual. But I can't really say I'm satisfied...I know it's a lot about practicing but is there anyone who could give me some tips or thoughts about this? Thanks so much in advance and Happy Nightmare Night everypony!

I personally think it looks fantastic! I can't see way you wouldn't be satisfied, though I'm no artist. You should be proud of this and cherish it. Happy Nightmare Night!

Why thank you! I will sure cherish it more as an artist I always push myself to get better...sometimes a bit too much and I end up not enjoying my works...

 

Thanks again!

Thanks! *blush*

I make the sketch on paper and then "redraw" the lines with PS I do use mainly the pen tool and in this case I "simply" painted over the lines.

I think it looks pretty darn good. It must have taken quite a long time to make. Art is not my forte, so you'll have to excuse the lack of technical lingo, but it has a nice overall effect. Very well done. Have a happy Nightmare Night!

May I suggest that next time you add a background? Doesn't have to be a fancy one, a grey one would do, I just feel like it's weird seeing it against white, I've done it before and I couldn't stomach it. Other than that I think it's alright, although it feels like you were a little afraid of not using outlines in some of the spots like the basket and cape (that's where a non-white background could come in handy).

Ah the struggle for satisfaction with your art, I know it well. As you grow into a style, you will become more satisfied with your art.

 

You've got yourself a very nice OC there, I love her hat. You're shading is very, very well done. Especially with the fuzzy bit on her cape.

The bottom of the pumpkin looks like it could be a bit darker though.

 

You're color is very nice and appealing.

Her hind legs seem a bit thick, although that could very well just be me since I prefer to draw really skinny legs.

 

I'm curious as to what that bird on the back of her neck is though... Is it meant to be a tattoo? Either way, the whole thing looks great.

Any thoughts? I worked on the background (ok nothing super fancy) and I must admit the whole thing has a different feeling. Definitely better.

See? It has a much better vibe. And it looks well made, although that Pumpkin Basket is driving me nuts, it just looks very out of place with that outline.

You know it's weird I was thinking the exact same thing when I saw the first picture but I didn't want to say anything... Because overall this is buckin' beautiful. (Like fer realz)

This looks really good.  The only advice I have is to maybe use a darker orange and a thinner outline on the pumpkin.  It just seems to stand out too much, and not in a good way.

[Aisling Ink 195]

Ok so I did follow your advice and fixed the pumpkin as well (useless to say everypony was right xD).

 

This is the result 

 

 

I just REALLY wanna say thanks for the precious advices  

Thank you all mares and gentlecolts!
