Oh how fun -- LOVE the bright colors!!

Including the kiwi is interesting. I've never heard of putting kiwi on a cupcake.....but you sure can't beat a kiwi for color! Plus as a special drawing for someone who loves kiwis, it makes sense.

Awesome work :D

That's pretty crazy! I love the level of detail of the skittles! Also the color composition is pretty unusual and extremely bright, but yet fits perfectly well! The only thing, I don't like that much, is the background. Has way fewer details and the semitransparent shadows and lights don't make too much sense.

Good Work!

Glad you like it and thanks for your input ^^.......as for the background, I was trying to give it a painterly effect (I love painterly paintings so much) but guess it didn't worked out as well as I thought it was going to......but oh well, I'm still learning heh.........

Duuude! My teeth start aching only from looking at all the sugary stuff :D

The bright colors are neat.. and the level of detail is great, too. I'm not quite sure about the style. It's refreshingly original and not too vector-ish clean and smooth (don't know how else to say). But at the same time I think it's almost a bit too crazy or unorderly..? Well, maybe it's just me. And another thing struck my eye. It's the S on the small round things.. Looks like they were put there by hand and turned around so the viewer can always read the S.. which is kind of like the opposite of the otherwise somewhat random placement of objects (yeah, I noticed they were cloned/duplicated.. and yeah yeah, I'm a nit-picker at times)...

Thanks for pointing that out (the "S"). I actually was not going to include them but since it was a birthday present for a friend (who loves skittles) I just added them in the last minute. I barely finished it, than ran to the print shop haha.
