However, while I enjoy the setting and the way you have posed these ponies, it doesn't show the steampunk style as much as it could have. Although I notice Rainbow's goggles and various accessories, it can be made more distinguishable as steampunk and also make the piece more eye-catching.
Experiment with crazy ideas! Steampunk is all about dials, pipes, gears, springs and other MECHANICAL components being used for the visual appearance. One nice and perhaps overused method of doing this is a synthetic limb, and that always captures the viewer.
Feel free to 'critique my critique' as this is my very first one.
That's one fantastic picture you got there. You got the vibrant color in RD's and AJ's fur in a sharp contrast to the brown and foggy steampunk word arround them clearly highlighting them without the contrast being too gaudy. It really makes the mstand out as a "beacon" of love in the gloomy steampunk world.
Unfortunately AppleDash is, if not The most comon, then at least one of the most comon shippings in the MLP fanfiction, both in therms of visual art and in fanfiction. However you do manage to place them in a context that you rarely see them, and you suceeded with it. That counts to your advantage. Then again; it's a comon ship.
Your technique is at first glance simple yet efficient. You create lively colors, and manages to balance the contrast between the vibrant colors and the background. Your true talent is displayed in the way you made Rainbow Dash's hair, and the mist in the background. You apply lots of detail in them, and makes every single hair and curling in the mist stand out.
The impact from the image is not so strong as it could have been, again because AppleDash is a fairly comon ship. What enhances the impact is thier expressions. It really loooks ike Rainbow Dash really loves Applejack, and Applejack seems to feel really unsure of herself. She do seem to want Rainbow Dash too, but it appears that there's something holding her back. Doubht perhaps? That creates a depth in the picture that's hard to achieve. Furthermore the conext you put them in prooves that they can be shipped in any context; even steampunk.
