To start off, I really like this piece. It's got good detail and Applejack is really well done.I'd say the thing you did best in this piece was the body of Applejack. Pony anatomy is pretty tough to do in a complex pose, and her front and hind legs are perfectly positioned and proportioned. I also really like the shading on applejack. There is quite a bit of noise in the coloring which I would normally consider messy, but it's consistency across Applejack gives her a kind of rough and rustic feeling.I like how the styles between the subject and the background are different. The realistically shaded Applejack contrasts with the artificial and surreal surroundings to create the feeling that applejack might actually be in a dream. The only problem here is that I feel like the shadows don't really belong. I feel like they are connection with the background that doesn't really feel appropriate given Applejack's location.Sustains: Whatever shading style you are using is definitely working, keep that up. Keep trying to create interesting and out of the normal situations in your drawings. Even if this one was the result of laziness, it created a good effect. Often times the risky and bizarre is the better art.Improves: Try adding a little more detail to her face. Her eyes and mouth are kind of simplistic compared to the rest of her body, and often times more detail can help portray more emotion. More emotion will help you define the purpose of the drawing.Overall I really like it. I'd give it a solid four stars because Applejack is really well done, and there is interesting element with the background.
