I love how you gave her the half-lowered lids to look a little less doe-eyed the the original paint job
One suggestion I can give is to add a bit shading to her mane and tail. The way that I do this is after the flat color dries, I mix a thin wash of a darker shade and brush that over the entire surface of the area I want shaded, letting the thinner wash of paint sink into the crevices of the piece, where there would normally be shadows. After that dries I paint the highlights in a lighter shade then the flat color on the highest edges, to show where the light is hitting first. For Booberry Pie here the highlights would be the highest ridges sticking up from her curls.

Yep - I used to paint D&D minis. I was imitating the flat look of the actual toy's paint job.

"Boo Berry"? You mean like that cereal that's sold at Halloween alongside Count Chocula?

Even if you're not completely satisfied with the result, this character is awesome! I love the idea.

If I ever get duplicates of Rainbow Dash, I may want to try making Derpy. It will probably come out badly.
This looks awesome!

But if a Derpy turns out derped, isn't that meta? LOL

I would probably end up making her un-derped if I tried :/

And it's very strange when she isn't.
In fact, I might end up making Firefly.

I'm So Meta, Even This Acronym
But I am so bad, I'll probably end up making a perfect rendition of Cloud Kicker!
