Description Edit: I adjusted the closed eye a bit to fix a slight error.

This was requested by someone I know personally. She asked me to draw a character from Mahou Tsukai Pretty Cure, so I decided to do the main character. I had originally started it in late August, but it got heavily delayed because of school (and because of the Ultimate Madoka drawing that I wanted to finish first). So I kinda feel a little bad now for making her wait for so long >.<
This was originally a B&W ink drawing that I colored in SAI and edited in Photoshop/Pixlr. This is probably the last time I'm going to color an ink drawing for a while, cleaning up the lines is such a pain x_x Also, for the life of me I can't seem to make a proper background without making it look super busy. Like, how do you even??? Welp, I guess I'll figure it out sometime...

I hate drawing/coloring long (& blonde) hair

I love the colouring of the hair! So many different shades!
I also love her hairpiece with the little witch hat!
About the background... I don't think it looks too busy! If you really wanted to remove something... perhaps the pearls in the middle circle? BUt apart from that, I don't think there's 'too much'. : )

Poppypraise In reply to MaoMint [2017-02-09 23:33:07 +0000 UTC]

Aaaaaaaaaaaah thank you so much~!!   
Yeah, she has a pretty cute design, I like it x3
You think so? ;w; I've always thought that most of my backgrounds were really busy and detract away from the characters, at least that's what I've heard a few say. Hm, maybe that could work..? Well, I'm not going to go back and fix it, it's time I put this piece to rest for good.
Plus I already deleted the SAI file so...
But still, thanks again for your feedback~!

MaoMint In reply to Poppypraise [2017-02-12 23:36:19 +0000 UTC]

Really?
I took a look at the rest of your gallery and... this one seems to be one of the more 'busy' ones - yet not too much. Therefore, I am rather surprised to hear that people have mentioned this to you.

About the pearls - considering that they are on a plain white background - i think it ought to be easy to edit them out? : ) But I don't think it's terribly necessary. It's up to you, of course!

Poppypraise In reply to MaoMint [2017-02-14 00:54:52 +0000 UTC]

Okay, maybe I used the wrong word for this, I think I mean to say that some of my backgrounds are somewhat incohesive with the characters. I'm not the best at creating completely original designs, including backgrounds for drawings. I just try to mash up whatever looks okay even if they might not actually be fitting, I seriously need help with these kinds of things. Anyway, the drawings I was talking about in particular are fav.me/da787ud fav.me/daw5w8f fav.me/d9s8sjs fav.me/d7a5k05 & maybe fav.me/daj4qhc The bgs aren't really 'busy' per say but they don't seem quite fitting as they should be, at least to me anyway. But maybe I am just overthinking things. Actually it was the Stocking drawing that people have mentioned to me that the bg for it is too busy. I remember trying to submit it to a certain group and it was declined because as they said the text and lace is a bit too much or something. I don't remember the exact details of it but I definitely remember it being about those 2 things.

Well, yes, it is possible too but I don't really feel like doing it right now, not only because I'm too lazy but I don't tend to go back and fix artworks that are months old. But thank you for your concern, I truly appreciate your honest opinion!

Thanks a lot~! Don't worry, it's not weird at all I spend a lot of time cleaning up lines to make them as perfect as I possibly can, so it's really satisfying to know that there's someone who genuinely appreciates it

The colors in this is so nice and vibrant!
I simply adore the way you shaded this piece as well.
If I may suggest some tips:
♥ Shading the neck and other parts with black can really flatten your image, try using other shades! (I.E. purple, red, dark blue)
♥ This may be your style so excuse this if that is the case: The right eye seems to be a bit too high making the face seem sorta long.

Other than that, I love it!

Thank you so much for your feedback and constructive criticism~!! ❤ It really helps me out a lot since there are not many people I know who can give me proper critiques.
These tips you listed are very useful, especially the 1st one! I draw big eyes often but I'm not the best at aligning facial proportions so I didn't really catch that at first. I have heard quite a few others who had noticed something wrong with the eyes as well, but I think you were able to pinpoint the exact problem. So thanks for that, I'll keep these in mind for reference in future drawings~! 💕

Aww this piece looks really cute ! You did a great job with the coloring and the reflections on her clothes, well done ! There is only one little error on her face, her closed eye looks too low. But eh, the rest of the drawing looks amazing. I love the colors (pink/purple/red fits together very well !) and the background looks so cute and girly <3 Keep it up !

Thank you very much for your feedback~!! I greatly appreciate that you took the time to make some constructive criticism since I really need it. Also, I took what you said into account and tried to fix the closed eye so that it will look a little more fitting. I hope it looks much better now >.<

Thanks again! ^^
