What a ferocious drawing! I love how fierce and fiery Arcanine looks here! The bloodred moon in the background really gives this a daunting feel. I love how "full" your drawings are. They really have this rich volume that I can't quite describe!

Thank you!
Although I fear that my drawings aren't complete. It doesn't feel like any of my drawings are finished, they're all missing something...

How cold you please someone called "FieryWithin" more than doing an amazing job at fiery scenes ?
The color scheme here is wonderful, you did so well with fiery tones, they really make you feel the heat. And that red moon is absolutely gorgeous, for some reasons it mas me kind of dreamy.
I also love how Arcanine's furr seems to imitate the move of some fire, I don't know if this was intended or not, but I love it.
Interesting is also how you were able to introduce some cold tones (blue) without it interfering with the over heated atmosphere. They just seem to make warm tones glitter even more - thus looking even hotter.
For a bit of criticism, I have to agree that Arcanine's legs (the two in the front in my opinion) seem to lack muscles - like its left front leg is all straight, a little more muscles and curves would have adde more natural.
But eh, Arcanine is not that easy to draw, so I give you credit for that and moreover, I think that this is a minor detail, because your gorgeous coloring makes that seem very secondary.
A wonderful depiction of the "Fire" theme, as well as an interesting written composition which fits the theme perfectly well too, congratulations !

Thank you, FieryWithin, you leave me speechless.
I apologize for not replying to this message in a scary amount of time. I read it, over and over again, but couldn't find the right words to describe it.
I shall take you suggestions, and look into those legs. Originally I drew Arcanine parallel to the picture, but then decided to give it a little tilt. Which didn't quite work out as well as intended, due to those legs. XC
But thank you, my friend, you always leave me awestruck and inspired. Reading your comments make me want to go out and write a million of them myself. You are truly and amazing person and I hope to hear from you soon!

Aaw, I'm sorry, I should have definitely checked my typing before posting...
I see a few missing letters : "How could ...", "...for some reasons it makes me kind of dreamy", " would have added..." ... ^^'
Sorry about that, hope you'll still get what I meant though !

dude even though i see it all the time i can never get over how awesum your coloring is...
i usually hate when things don't have a solid outline, but you always pull it off with barely one!
i hope someday i get as pro as you at coloring * o *

I used to like solid outlines, but for my 113 Themes Challenge, I won't allow myself to.
And no worry, you will!

Beautiful Sky!
I see you went with a red moon again like with your Houndour picture
The Arcanine's fur really looks like it's on fire, or is fire
But something I noticed is that his right font leg looks a little to round, and his body seems a liiiitttllle too squished...But I guess that's what has to happen to fit all of him on the page
But I love it, especially since it's Arcanine
It's great to see work from you again, by the way.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you!
Oh, yes, the Houndour picture...though this one's wasn't as nice and bright. And I noticed the bad proportions after I started coloring, so it was too late to change. 
I had you in mind when I was thinking of what Pokemon to draw next. It's my first Arcanine, but those Pokemon are just so gorgeous.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Mmm, yeah ^^ I hate when you start coloring just a little too late.
Arcanine are some of the hardest pokemon for me to draw I hate drawing their faces especially, since they always look stupid -.-
But you did a perfect job, of which I am not surprised ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
True...

I'm glad
The only reason I haven't been liking the faces is because I make the eyes too small or something

Amazing! I love the colors you chose. Also the depth you were able to give the picture by your shadowing/coloring technique is awesome. Brilliant! Great job!

Thank you!
I was very pleased with the coloring...it wasn't realistic enough for me. ...might you have any suggestion on how I could make it better?
~
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Your welcome. . . Actually I think it looks great even a bit realistic and so therefore have no advice to offer (besides I've never really drawn fire)
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Wow. I love the background and the ear/muzzle/face area quite muchly.
Well, actually, I love all of it... XD
Very good job.

Thanks!

You're welcome~
I like color pencils too.
You are really good with them. OwO

I'm always worried that too much of the
paper shows through the coloring. orz
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sometimes it's good to show the paper. I can't even color lightly...
And you're welcome. Don't worry about it, because you do a great job.

You think so? ; u;
Oooo~ But, I like your style too. OwO
lol, I guess different styles are good.
Thank you.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, yes. Sometimes, my all-too-solid pictures look plainly outrageous...I like simple, like you style. I wish I could draw things more simply, but no, it just doesn't come like that...
You are welcome. And yes, different styles are great.
