Congratulations on the milestone! And this is a good example. The pose, fabric, and hair are done well, but what strikes me more than that is the attitude of the piece which comes through her pose and expression. This isn't the clumsy little girl of season one, and not yet the regal princess she will grow into, but a young woman growing into self-awareness.
It has a Sailormoon feel to it (the pink doesn't hurt), but it is most definitely your style -- that's the best type of fanart IMO.
My only criticisms: there would possibly be a bit of the fourth finger showing on her right hand, and the broach should be tilted very slightly towards her left, as her shoulders are turned very slightly that way.

Ooh, this is very lovely drawing, well done! Like the pose and her calm relaxed expression, looks very comforting!

This is incredible. I can see how much work into it. Her hair, features, costume...they're all perfect, and gorgeous. Amazing work all around.

Oh wow...I've never seen such a realistically styled (well shaded at least) picture of Usagi, and I love how beautiful her face is, especially the lips. The metallic and crystal textures on the Compact and her headband are also especially lovely, and look nice and solid compared to the voluminous bows and silky winding hair. The proportions and pose are very well done, and it strikes the right balance between realistic and cartoonish. The front and back of Usagi so to speak, almost look like separate pictures because of the level of detail and heavy textures in the front, but I think that's as it should be, drawing focus to the center of the picture.

Heh, okay now I have to go find the Sailor Moon theme song to listen to ^_^ so lovely!

Ahh, there is much better and more realistic Sailor Moon art all over DA - I've got a bunch of it in my favorites, for one thing

But thanks for this, especially for noticing the textures! That's one reason these uniforms are so fun to draw - all the gorgeous little details to play with.

Ah well, I admit I have never gone looking for Sailor Moon fan art outside of your gallery...though I did find those adorable Disney Princess Sailor pics through your favorites, so it's worth following up ^_^ you have good taste!

Textures & fine details are my favorite bits of most artwork (stories too for that matter)

Her assorted frills seemed to grow exponentially as she grew more powerful...

Also, beautiful work.

Oh, yes. The whole reason I started sketching this picture in the first place is because I had a sudden urge to draw that big froufy bow

And thanks!
