Beautiful detail on the hair. The bubbles add a wonderful soft effect. I love her almost sad expression.

I love how stylized this is, The varying of thickness of the lines really gives your style a lot of flair. The expression Octavia gives also brings a lot to this image and really makes you focus on her face. The detail lines in the bow to give it more dimension and give it more of a 3d effect alone. The hair itself is really well done and gives the viewer's eye something to follow which for the most part points back towards the face to give it more emphasis. The colored opaque circles around her hair are also a nice design touch and having them echo the color of her bow, eyes, and the highlight of her hair.
The only real thing I'm confused about is the gradient from her neck to her head. Though I see that it is intentional I cannot be too sure if the color choice is really helping the image overall and may actually be hindering it a little bit. The other gradients work well but its just that particular gradient color choice that confuses me.

Thank you for the feedback. Well I was inspired by the cover art of DJ Okawari, in which the artist uses vibrant colors for the cheek. So I wanted to choose an unusual (but subtle) secondary coat color similar to my DJ Pon-3 piece. I was also unsure of the coat color gradient, which made it the hardest part for me. So you're probably right about the color hindering it a bit. Perhaps I should've chosen a cooler color. Thank you for the critique.

She's crying... but not with her eyes.
With her soul.

I really like those soft tones and smooth gradiants you have in there/ It really captures that aloof way that Octavia is portrayed in the show. Plus, bubbles. Bubbles make everything good!

I'm not sure why, but this reminds me of a game. Final Fantasy, perhaps? Maybe Magna Carta II? I just can't place it right now, but the style seems eerily familiar. Love the picture and definitely made me like Octavia a whole lot more.

Thanks and Yeah, I was told this style resembles Tetsuya Nomura's art style. Probably because of the sharp lines and heavy dark shadows.

*Slow Clap*
This is just as great, if not better than, the one you made for DJ P0n-3. I really like the how you used gradients to color Octavia. Not to mention the way her mane keeps a similar shape to the way it was in the show, but is slightly frayed so it doesn't look so stiff. You did an awesome job with both.

Wooo! More sensitive ponies!
Thank you for being different... and not over-sexualizing the ponies like so many artists seem to have the obsession of doing. -_-
