looks durn good to me as it stands. durn good indeed.
...on the critique side, thinkin her face should be thinned out a lil...kinda masculine. possibly that is what is seeming a bit off to you?
(?...thinkin yumii is a gal though...but if wrong just ignore this...heh)~
...the sword is truth...

Well, the 'face' is a painted scrap of paper floating on the pond's surface, obscuring the (presumably) true face of whoever is looking at her own pink-haired reflection. 
I probably need to find a way of making that clear.
There are also a bunch of colouring errors I'll go back and retouch later this week.
Great googly moogly! That is beautiful! You have an incredible talent Sciuridae! Misty is going to love that!

Wow, that is really cool. I like your style, it is so very unique.

That's meant to be a scrap of painted paper, not her real face. I even went back and added paper textures and faint printed words to it.
Her 'actual' face would have to be blurry, like most of the hair is, if I were to maintain the conceit of a reflection. The paper is a narrative device to allow me to legitimately bring in sharper lines, textured fur and more detail.
Not an entirely successful one, gauging by the reactions, but there you have it.
Ahhhh <^,^> I see it now! Very cool! It actually works really well once you know what to look for hehe <^,^> I've been sick so my brain isn't working at full capacity <;_;> But seriously, its great, and love it <^-^>

No the squirrel isn't so incredibly happy with this piece he feels the need to momentarily steal the top spot in the forum, in hopes that even more people can see Sciuridae's awesomeness.

Yah that's it.

I've finished the first of my gifts. It's up at http://reiraku.deviantart.com/art/Th...-Pond-64132066
Okay, so 'finished' is relative. I'm not happy with the end result, but I'm not sure how to fix it, so I'll sleep on it and hope the answer comes to me.
