Over all very good and I like the idea of it. The coloring is nice and really detailed line work makes it very appealing. I especially like the line work on the ribbons in her mane. You defiantly do smaller things like that better than me. I don't like lining ribbon so much.
There are a few things that I myself would change (obviously you don't have to but I'm just suggesting
1. The shape of the main character in the image. I don't know if she's supposed to be this way but shes really built for a mare. Seems more like a stallions body shape. Like I said, I'm not sure if shes supposed to be that way but that's just my two cents on it.
2. The lighting on the mane and in the eyes.
I'm assuming you are using a dodge tool/luminosity setting for it? to me the yellow colors are overly saturated with the color. Not saying it looks bad, it doesn't entirely but it hurts the colors a tad.
Like how you shaded it where it is supposed to look like separate strands of hair, which is very nice by the way, it should be the same way with the highlights in my opinion. You should be able to see the highlight strands. My suggestion is if your going to do highlights with a luminosity setting or dodge tool use it with a low opacity and build up or just use lighter shades of the color to highlight rather than that.
3. Last thing: The rain streams on her body and on the ground. I like the flowing motion to them. I really like that.
My only suggestion is to use a slightly lower opacity. I can see where some parts are less solid than others but there should be less pure white.
If you took away the lightening and falling rain in the background one might mistake this for string or spider web. With the lower opacity it will seem more clear like actual water and allowing some spots to be more white will show the lighting well enough. The streams and ripples facing towards or in the shadows should be darker of course.
I really hope I was clear enough
Well that's all I really could point out. I really like this drawing of course and your overall style and coloring is very unique and enjoyable to see. Good luck in the contest
