Description
This was originally supposed to be posted on Halloween night. But so many things had happened during that time I didn't get around to it. I also still needed to work a bit on this more before posting it.
Anyway, here is the colored version of my Gothic Queen 3 drawing (which recieved a DD, btw)!
While I wanted this to be a tribute to Halloween... I'm actually going to devote this picture to all the people/friends/family who came to my hour in need after my house was robbed a few days ago. Thank you everyone! Your words and support have really helped me. It's a frightening thing to feel your home (the place that's supposed to be safe) is violated. I'm still pissed at the people who broke in, but am extremely grateful to have incredible friends. So yeah, this painting is dedicated to you all!

Thank you so much!
Wow, I had no idea people were looking at my other stuff! This makes me super happy! OwO It's among my goals for people to look at my art and appreciate it, regardless if they're familiar with the content/characters or not. Color and details is my jam. I want people to look at my art and find something new to find. I know I post as fast as a snail at times, but that's because I always want to post something fresh and exciting.

I really admire that despite everything that's going on with your life you still manage to get the time to finish this including going the extra personal mile and forsaking deadlines to satisfy yourself. Everything has a lot of thought put into it, and it's a great use of mixed media (is some of it also watercolor or is that a texture in the border? or just the original texture of the paper?) Almost looks like it's completely real media!

I KNEW IT!
Does this mean I can hack into your brain and figure out the secret to how you create such amazing pieces of art?

Not sure about 'amazing pieces of art' part... but if you want to hack into my brain then that's easy: password is 'hot cheetos'

And thank you for the password

everything about this is amazing... the color, the detail, the expression on her face... LOVE!

Yessss! I'm so happy you noticed the face! *__* That was my favorite part of the piece, in fact. I've always wanted to create a sickly, pale-cream face against cherry red eyes and lips.

Ah, wow, this is my favorite piece that you've ever done. I LOVE the colors of this piece! Soft pink, muted green, and some bridging purple.
I almost want to offer a critique on it, it's so pretty! If you just want to be done with it, that's fine, it's complete enough, but I seriously love it so much, there are some tweaks i wish I could make to it.

If I feel the critique goes in line with what I want for this piece then I'll consider it.

uuuuuhm. ok. I'll take that as i no, you don't want any advice.

Hah, I didn't say 'no'. I said I'd *consider* the critique. 
Aw, critiques... It's a touchy subject, lol. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well you sounded pretty offended when you replied to my initial comment. :/ You didn't address that I really liked the piece.
No, I'm not going to write a critique. When I write critiques, I spend a good 30 minutes doing it, I come up with visual aids. It's way too much time to spend on a piece if the image is done and that's the end. I only offered because you said you wanted this to be really good and you were spending a lot of time to make it special.

I really did appreciate the wonderful remarks you gave to this piece. I also know whenever you get critical on a piece that it usually means you like it very much (hah, I actually did write that part in my initial reply, but feared you would've taken that the wrong way so I deleted it). 
Again, you've been in my shoes plenty of times so you know how I feel on this matter. Like you, I welcome comments, even if the image is 'done' or I never asked for critiques. However, like you too, I will make readjustments only if the critique does address something I either overlooked or enhances the goal of the piece.
That's fine. I know how in-depth your critiques are so they take a lot of time to write. Hence, why I wanted to be straight with you from the beginning. I wanted to give you the opportunity to determine whether writing a critique was worth your time or not, especially when I can't guarantee that I'll address all your issues until *after* I've read the review and determined if it applies to my piece. That's not to say I would've ignored what you wrote. Like I mentioned earlier, I just want the opportunity to accept/reject as opposed to being obligated to anything.

Honestly ... I'm just kind of disappointed. I actually *haven't* EVER been in your current shoes, having a decent artist and friend asking if I'd like help with something that's already really good. All I ever get are the shit comments forced on me that are completely unhelpful and that have no idea what I want or where I'm going with a piece and that aren't remotely helpful and usually come from idiots who know nothing at all about art.
I thought you might be more excited that I really like the piece and am excited to offer suggestions for its betterment, but that isn't how you feel.
I understand you not wanting to make any changes. Its done. The end. Good job. With or without my suggestions, your image will be well liked and popular and it will sell at shows, so none of this really matters.
