Description
Count on me to go from nice and happy to something with blood. . . Tah dah.
But this was a fun one.I wanted to try a difficult perspective again, and see what I could come up with- so I decided to make the pose equally so in the process. x_x Why do I subject myself to such things? Because I will master perspective one of these days.
Created in ClipStudioPaint, finalized in Photoshop.

Aw, thank you very much. ^^ I'm glad you think so.
You'll get it. Perspective is challenging, but if it's something you want to do, you'll get to where you want to be with it. Man, kudos to you, though. Not many people even try perspective. ^^

Here, have a
I am always happy to see a piece with strong perspective, especially when it's done as well as here
The first thing that I did get when seeing it is that his situation looks so painful, and he really seems very strained and stressed and these emotions transition to the viewer nicely. I really feel with him and want him to get out of there, and that's just from the first glance, and that energy is what really helps this piece stand out.
I am, however wondering if maybe there could have been a bit more of an effect of blood on the environment. He does seem to be bleeding quite a badly, and some of those wounds seem quite deep, yet I would expect the grating he is holding onto would be dripping with blood from that wound, yet it seems to only have that pleasant red from the heat below. You did real well in that regard with his right hand, it is soaked correctly, even if we don't see the actual wound, but the rest of the wounds don't seem to follow suit.
His facial expression is spot on, and he seems to be breathing heavily too. But, another little missed opportunity is that, aside from being slightly covered in dirt, he doesn't seem to be sweating from the whole experience. Usually such a situation would get one's face covered in sweat, but even a little hint of it on the sides of his face would have raised the tension even more, even though it's already real tense
There is another slight nitpick which has started to bother me when I look at the piece for a while and that is his left foot. From this perspective and in this pose, I think the foot should be facing towards us, instead of away from us. Or is his ankle possibly also injured? That would be quite a big bummer for him
All in all, it's quite an intense piece, in all the good ways. There is always room for improvement, but I believe the desired effect has been achieved with flying colors

These are awesome suggestions! Thank you so much for all of your feedback. (I've constantly been forgetting sweat lately. . .) Yeah, I'll definitely need to play with the foot and see if I can fix that. Thanks again for your extensive feedback! I really appreciate it. ^^

Wow! Love the perspective here also! Did you create your reference photo yourself again? 
Lighting is great in this piece! All coming from what (I assume!) is the fiery doom he's trying to avoid falling into. The red in the background going from light to dark emphasizes the danger below. The red highlights on the bottom of his shoe are a good touch. Speaking of background, again I really love the amount of detail you've added here. Not too much, not too little.
There is a lot of tension between the arm straining to hold himself up, while also straining to turn and see the furnace beneath him. The folds of the clothes draw the eyes toward that tension between where he is looking and where he is trying to go (AWAY from where he is looking!).
The only part that seems a little off to me is the part of the bars that he caught himself on--the one little bar poking out toward his left elbow looks like it wouldn't actually have caught him--maybe he'd be hanging a bit differently, or his arm wouldn't be bent quite at that angle if the platform was missing it's right edge like it is? Not quite sure. I didn't notice that at first glance, so it is a very small thing.
I really enjoyed looking at this piece! Following so I get to see more later!

Thank you! No, not for this one, and as a result it was more challenging. I didn't have the means to take a photo from that angle. Good catch, I probably just need to go in and change the lighting to bring it forward a bit. Thanks again for your extensive feedback!

I don't know what this is based off of, but it's amazing O_O You don't even need the title to tell that the character is desperate. I love how he is trying so hard to hang on with his one good arm while is injured one is limp and useless. The perspective seems to be on point to me and it is a very interesting way to view this scene. Great job!

Just an idea I've been trying to work out for part of my story. ^^ Thank you so much for your feedback! I appreciate it.

Looks great! Awesome perspective as always, I think that's your signature thing
What has he gotten into? OwO

Aw, thank you! I'm starting to think so too. ^^
Good question. I've been coming up with various situations as I've been trying to work out a portion of the story, but none of them are finalized yet.

Nice. I do the same thing when I try to write bits for my comic - I know generally what I want to happen at certain moments but the details are fuzzy, so the storyline has a lot of things like [somebody important to this character gets severely injured] in it

Haha... exactly. xD Ditto that.

am I a bad person for wanting to see him fall?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha... Nah. Haha... Am I a bad person for always putting him into such situations? xD

It certainly doesn't look fun.

Not at all xD;;; — It's almost like the previous one he was goofing off, and then this one he slipped xD
Awesome all the same!

There Rhyn goes getting beat up again. This pose is really nice, you can feel the desperation to cling onto that spiked grating. I love the red piping in the background.

I love the perspective of the picture and the lighting is used well and makes you wonder what's so important that he needs to stay up there.
HOWEVER... his right arm he's using seems a bit... off. Like it shouldn't be able to bend like that.

I think I can see what you're saying. I'll have to go modify it to see what I can come up with.
Thank you so much for your feedback!
