I’m pretty happy with the anatomy on this one–I also tried to really turn up the lighting effects to capture “bright and sunny”. Mixed results on that end, but nothing bad.
The anatomy looks great, including the unguligrade feet. It’s Twilight’s face I like the most though. There’s an intensity to her eyes that I’m not really sure how you managed to achieve Ambris. That smug grin and slight blush makes me really wonder what’s going on outside the picture.
My theory is that Rainbow just won a game of beach volleyball and now she’s trying to coax Twilight into joining – with her usual lack of tact and failing miserably.
I seldom notice the three-finger hands, to the point that I even forget about it from time to time until someone points it out.
Ambris! As you know full well, I’m a fan of your artwork across the board, clean and dirty, anthro or feral. I’ve noticed how much your style has improved over the years, and how you stand our compared to your peers. Once more, improvements and epicness are right here!
As you said yourself, the anatomy is superb, and I really think you blew it and their facial expressions out of the park, your very best work. The curvature on Twilight’s stomach and her breasts being the perfect size for someone of her shape and build. You can naturally follow down the curve of her stomach to her crotch, and it just looks right. You can see the change of color on her thighs to show the thigh muscles, and drawing those reserve kneed horses must be hard to do in your head, because you can mess them up, and you did it perfectly! Hooves are just the size I’d think they’d be to support their weight. I’ve always been a fan of your huge ears, even if they may be ‘unrealistic’. It carries the shows style over.
But the faces on both of them. Did they just see their other four friends in the distance? It looks like it, and you’ve captured it on their faces. Twilight having a soft, relaxed smile, and her posture looks like she had just heard her name being called. Wonderfully drawn eyes, but it’s Fluttershy who just… perfect! The raw joy on her face, excitement, maybe even borderline glee. It’s Fluttershy at her absolute best. And for both of them, I can not compliment you enough on how absolutely perfect their wings are, in size, detail, curvature, and, well, feathery fluff!
Good capturing their personalities. Fluttershy with the wrap as the modest one, and of course Twi with a book even at the beach. Mmmm, smart girls in bikinis…
I’d also humbly like to ask about the hands. I adore your artwork, but I sadly have a hard time ignoring the…well… “crab hands”
Your work is beautiful, but it would be almost perfect if the hands were a bit more…um, normal? n.n;
Totally.
Mewtwo hands
Ooooh, I like exactly that idea. Rainbow just won volleyball game or something. XD
Thanks for the feedback too <3

With the 2 + thumb I kind of get a sea creature or a thalidomide defect vibe.
Thanks for the extensive feedback as always! I live for reviews like that.
Here, here!
