Wow. Thanks for the positive stuff guys. I honestly didn't like it that much at first, but maybe that's just something every artist does with their stuff... I'll admit the helmet was kind of fun to do... except for the pattern on the forehead part. I did a decent job on the right half, but the left half makes it really obvious how bad I rushed it... like I didn't even try at first... technically I did try, but not in the right direction... and the image I used for reference didn't show the helmet at a very good angle so the feather like frills probably could've been done better.
I actually wanted to make the tail a little like Maria's hair, going out in different directions with all these big strands, but it just didn't look right with the rest of the body. I probably should've made the body look fluffier. Maybe then it would've looked cool. and I didn't really intend for the grey parts to be grey... I just needed to change the colors for something. they were intended to be white, but I'm starting to think grey looks a tad bit better here... hooray for helpful accidents!
But still, thanks for the positve feedback. Maybe I'll post this on Deviantart or something.
