Hello, I'm commenting from project comment.   
Your anatomy is very good. I like the combination of pink and blue, and the outfit is extreamely cool. I like the sharp and lineless style of the clothes to make them look crystally. The character itself is very realistic and the piece looks very fun and vibrant. The concept is very interesting and original. As for the shading, i think the different types of shading sort of clash. The desaturated shading on the body really conflicts with the vibrancy of the piece. The soft shading on the bubbles also clash with the sharp shading of the outfit. I think the skin could've also been colored more saturated to match with the rest of the piece. As for the background, I think the different elements of it clash as well. I think the bubbles and crystals look cool on their own, but since they are so different in texture, i think they conflict with each other as well. The posing itself could be more balanced, I think shes leaning a bit too much to the left. As for the red and blue bubbles, i think that they should be more transparent, they look a bit to heavy to me (but if that was what you were going for thats fine). But yeah thats my thoughts

Hello! I’m from


What I like about this :

-I like the mood of this. I’m not exactly sure what she is, I’m guessing a magical being of some sort with powers over crystals and bubbles. Not a combination I’d thought of, but it’s refreshing to see different power other than fire/ice.

- The colors are really nice and vibrant. You kept into a really saturated palette of blues and pinks, and it gives the whole thing a magical look. It provides a nice contrast as well.

-The background is simple, but it doesn’t take away from the character. I like that you brought back the bubbles and the crystals in the geometric shapes of the background. It makes the entire thing whole and complete.

-You anatomy and knowledge of shapes is good. I really like her face and the way you shaded her hair. The crystals and the bubbles are also really well done, and special mention for not copy pasting the same bubble over and over again. Or if you did, it doesn’t show. It’s often in small details like this that you can tell somebody was really involved in a piece and not taking shortcuts that can make the final picture looked rushed.


What I think could be improved :

- With all of the vibrant and saturated colors of the piece, I’m wondering why you went with such desaturated tones in the skin. It makes her look almost sick, which is obviously not what you were aiming for. Everything is so pink around her, you could bring back some of it into the shadows to make them less desaturated. You did it on her left arm and on her chest and it gives more livelier tones. You could try adjusting the saturation of the skin and see if it could improve it.

-Did you save it as a really low quality JPEG? There seem to be some artifacts around the different elements, usually something seen when a picture is too compressed. It’s minimal, but it takes a bit away from the picture.


Overall really nice picture! And speedpaints are always nice to watch, so I’ll go and subscribe to your Youtube channel!

Thank you for all the kind words! Yes, I did save a at a much lower resolution. The actual image is 3000 x 3000 at 300 dpi. I think this version is around 600 x 600 ish at 72. So it's quite a bit smaller. I'm, thinking that maybe a touch bigger would work better for me. That way I can show a better image. Thank you for checking out my channel and subscribing! I really appreciate it! Have a great day!

This piece definitely draws attention with all the colors and effects you;ve put in. I like her design a lot actually, especially her shoes, as well as the choice of making the crystals with cell shading, to make it different than blended skin. Her anatmy looks nice, though you've darkened the shadows on her skin a lot, i would reccomend avoiding that if there's no intense light source. You also put too much attention to her belly that now looks weirdly out of place. Her right arm is looking the best in terms of shading and color. The bubbles are taking too much attention in my opinion, It would look better if you made them with the same technique as the bottom (white) bubbles, as well as get rid of the big one of the left, it looks unnecessary and takes the spotlight from the actual character. 
Other than that I would love to see this piece more up close, It's a shame you've put it on such small canvas.

Thank you for the comment! She's actually on a gigantic canvas and I've lowered the dpi for deviant art and save the HD for my patreon.

you're welcome!
Ahh I didn't know that ;v; Then maybe putting a link to your patreon in desc would help haha~
otherwise people (like myself) might not notice you have one, and it's necessary to promote~

this time and effort into this is absolutely gorgeous. it starts of as a rough sketch, then comes the fact of some people disliking some things. but truly deserves fame like this.
