Chipony vs Ponengan

Anime Commission for - I was asked to do a very 'naruto' commission recreating a famous scene, I assume, of the anime/manga with pony OC's, Rave Darkness as Sasuke and Neon Rush as Naruto, she's a mare. I have to say the pony drawing was very normal/easy, I like the zebrasus OC, I liked his color scheme. When I finished with the drawing/coloring, I imported everything to PS. And then the special effects part began. I have to say it was pretty stressful because I don't know PS tricks so very well so I was trying to recrete the scene somehow, it took me way more to think how am I going to do it than the actual execution. At the very end when I finished the effects, I was like ...ugh! I don't like it, then when I started to apply color correction I saw the light! I really did. Gotta love color correction layers on PS, they're God Like if used correctly, I was like how the hell did I made this cool effect? D:

I was pretty close to download new brushes to help me out on this, but it wasn't necessary in the end because the result blown me away, it's not exactly like the scene but it's a pretty cool representation on it with my style. Hope you like it, was fun and challenging!
