Thank you for your critique. I'm very glad you like like my work.



However, as you said you're new to art critique, and I did notice that what you wrote is a little bit insufficient to be an art critique. So I'm going to rate it as unfair.



I happened to learn a few things about art critique this semester. The professor told me that to do a critique. One should do an objective analysis before express personal opinion. In objective analysis, you can describe the coloring, shading, toning, painting style, what do the artist draw and how do the artist manage the composition. In personal opinion, you can express your interpretation of this work. What do you think the artist was trying to say, why you like or hate this work and a conclusion to sum up your previous statement.



Well, I think we wouldn't need to be strict about art critique on DA. Also, what I said is more guide-like, no one said it must contain everything to be an art critique. But I do believe it may still require a certain degree of constructive content, or this art critique things would end up like comments with a rating system.



But still, you did provide some constructive advice like Rarity's cutie mark, the bottom parts of the eye lashes and the style of the little box. I thank you for that. The cutie mark was my mistake, I've fixed that. Thanks for reminding me. As for the bottom parts of the eye lashes, well, my style of drawing eyes often skip the bottom part. I think it would make the characters look more innocent. Guess next time I can try to not skip them. As for the box, I did thought of drawing it in a fancy style, but later I adapt the rough and undecorated box. The reason is that I was trying to imply the box is her unsophisticated heart. I felt that if I draw the box with decoration, the box would be too pretty to symbolize Rarity's deepest and purest soul. I believe for the people who know what the true value are, the most beautiful things are something that cannot been seen. Therefore I think only by using the simplest box could the comic tally with my ideas and believes.



Although I rate your critique unfair, I am still grateful for your appreciation. Thank you again and have a nice day.
