Description
Oh Twilight... Sooo what about them books, huh? Because I felt like I was being driven crazy. Painting details is cool and all, but this had to be made in little doses. Β Well, at least now I know how to paint a book spine! I won't even mention how long this took me as I had it sketched before season 5 aired and I redid it all at a later date. Still need to work on them crystals.So there it is - my take on the library.
I better not even say I'm finally back because I don't trust myself...

You did a spectacular job on the design and especially the painting of the new library, plus its wonderful inhabitants. The details all around are quite amazing, especially with such stunningly beautiful elements like the crystal columns and that great statue. Awesome work on the shelves themselves too, plus all of the fixtures and that lovely chair and ottoman with the great fabric; really sweet work on the armillary sphere. Heck, so many great textures from cloth to marble to crystal to glass to feathers to magic... Stunning, really. The lighting is gorgeous too, especially through those grand windows with the more-grand dendriform tracery (as compared to Golden Oak Library).
Of course the users are quite wonderful too. Princess Twilight looks stunning in her lovely regal garb, yet she still maintains her air of eagerness and interest. Spike looks like he's enjoying his job as he makes the list of books to pull β and yes, I did scan the shelves and find one or two of them. So many interesting authors and titles. Good thing he has a snack there because it looks like they'll be busy for a while, though I hope he doesn't get chocolate on any of the books.
Anyway, good thing for you that I'm over a week behind in commenting or I'd go on for another three pages! Thanks for sharing your awesomeness.

This is absolutely phenomenal. The sheer detail here is spectacular, but the composition in general is really well done.

My goodness, that's really well detailed. What a library that matches the Beast's Castle Library, except not as tall.

That was my intent. That library in Beauty and the Beast was always inspiring, but there was just too much empty space around.

Holy ja'moly! That is really beautiful and nothing but a masterpiece. I normally don't like realistic ponies, but dude, this, this blew anything I've seen out of the waters. 100/10. And boy do I wish I have even 1/10th of your patience.

I'm not doing speedpainting as it's impossible for me to not add details Unless by that you mean sped up process of painting, but that won't happen either due to the incredibly long time in takes me to make it. I would have to sit and record at least one entire day without any breaks
There would be even a chance for me to get rid of the entire thing in the middle of the work if it wouldn't go the way I wanted, as its often the case.
I wished my english was better though, so I could make some tutorials.

This is a really really good picture. I love the attention to detail in it. I've spent a few minutes just looking through all the individual books myself.
But even at the outset I had a question; how is one meant to get to that center balcony?

It looks.... outstanding. Details makes the artist. You shown us your true talent. And I'm sure you still feel it's unfinished.Β The damn curse of the artist.
I like the ensemble you gave to Twilight. I was going to ask you how many hours, but it seems it took... enough.
Amazing work
