...I have nothing much to say about this pic......except that it sucks sucks SUCKS! >>;;;
-Stupid artblock-
Yea, so as you can see, proportions are out of whack....and there are so many other things like the hands and the face that just bug me. But that's just the lineart.
...Coloring turned out better than I thought it would...so, I'm happy with that.
-For the Gijinka Pokemon Project-

(By the way, you are your own worst critic, she looks beautiful)

I don't think you have mistakes at all, but maybe cuz I'm not the one who drew it since we artist are usually more attentive to our on mistakes when we see them in drawings get me? I think it turned out rather well and her anatomy is just right since she's underwater she flows more with the water =]
Love the CG =]

Now, why are you so down on yourself? I like this picture and I think you should take it out of your scraps!
And it seems that Greek overtones are the way to go when it comes to drawing a gijinka Dragonair, 'cause you're, like, the third deviant I've seen to do it! 
Way to go.

Since you already seem to know about your anatomy mistakes, I won't say anything. What makes anyone feel bad (or worse) about their picture is people nagging them about the same thing over and over again. Plus, you can barely see the mistakes and it kind of flows in with the picture.
Love the background and love how you can make something look as beautiful as this with an older version of Photoshop (trust me, I can't get anything remotely similar to this with Photoshop 5, even if my life depended on it).
If you don't mind me asking, how'd you do the border? I love the border and the simplicity of it. :3

Border's pretty simple to do...
Just use the rectangular marquee and set it to how far from the edge of the canvas you want it.
Then, stroke it. (right click, click on 'stroke'
Deselect, then grab the Dodge tool and use it to lighten two corners of the border.
Do the same with the Burn tool, only with the other two corners.
-this part is optional, but you can use the smudge tool and the preserve transparency to help blend the colors of the border more-

Squeee! Thank you. :3 Now I can make a pretty border for one of my pictures. :3

It does not suck, to me, the proportional errors are barely visible. xD; But then, I'm only an amateur. However, her outfit and design is very original for a dragonair 'morph- I also like the serene expression on her face. +fave

I can't believe you say this drawing sucks!
No matter what you think of it, I love it!

PS: I really REALLY like her legs, and that's sort of embarrassing me.
PPS: My arms come almost down to my knees, so it's all good. They dangle oh-so gracefully about 1.5 inches above the tops of my kneecaps.

Hey hey. I like it. You know, even when artists don't try for it, sometimes the off-proportions stuff actually ends up looking great. That's what I think happened to this particular piece. Good stuff, Liff.

Lolz, I just look at the porportions and just say: "PRESPECTIVE" and it doesn't bother me. The colors are SO AWESOME, love! O_____O!!
You did such a nice job! 8DDD

When you have an artblock you should go try something new. Like draw the first person you see. Sitting on a goose.
