Description
~~~This is probably the biggest file I've ever worked with.
It's time I got my lines/soft-cell stuff really crisp. I'm getting it.
I also played with the hues there on the lower left side - the greens reflecting up from the mountains and st00f below. (Yeah, I know there's nothing like this in Palestine where they'd realistically be but in this picture they're NOT in Palestine. XD )
Darn you Idracil and your huge wings... *shakes head sadly* But highlighting the wing membrane was probably the most carefree and easy part, lol. I like Idracil's face and paws - and Thom - the best.
And there are some sparkles 'cause I haven't done any for a while.
It feels good to art again...ahhh...
And a special high-five to those who stopped by when I was STREAMING to watch me draw this and keep me company.
With that, I'll definitely be streaming more as it's a lot more easy and efficient on my new machine. *relaxed sigh* I really enjoyed/enjoy streaming, but my old laptop lagged so much I couldn't finish anything. I don't have that problem now, though. ^^
The shading/colours on Idracil's belly make me think of a shark. I luff sharks. >:3
Music for this one: 'Meast Party' - all groovy Arabic music, babeh~~~

ENJOY!

Idracil looks awesome! You should definitey do more soft cell shading in the future, you're really good at it! I love the sparkles xD Only thing I will say is that the highlights on his wings look a bit out of place, being a lot rougher than the rest of the image, bar the mountains which have a right to be fuzzy. They just draw my attention away from the rest of the image, which is annoying because the rest is so beautiful
And yay for Thom and Idracil being the right size to each other ;D
Btw, thanks for the fav

Thanks! I really like it - especially with bigger file sizes! But they take foreeeever just because the file is huuuuuge!
And lol, yeah, the wings are my 'time to be uber-lazy streaking-shading tiemmmm!!11!!one!!!!!!' XD
And YES, I finally got them scaled right! *hits head off wall* It only took me long enough...bah.
Welcome! ^^

very nimble looking beast and a great pose.
in gnenral i loved the look of the front and back legs both the posture and delecacy apeal to me. i do think however that the left hind leg fingers look a little distorted

I love the colours! Especially the way the wings fade into a greenish colour rather than just being a solid shade of blue or something! It looks very dynamic and stormy and so on and I can imagine it being very windy and treacherous or something...!

Thanks! I'm finding colour hues to really help bring atmosphere into the picture. ^^ And yes! Very stormy mountains! :0

oh wow im loving this soft cell style u pulled it off well but might i reccomend putting snow in the foreground its really easy to do, i think just put random spots on a new layer and then add motion blur, but im not sure theres alot of tutorials if you're intrested enough

Thanks!
There is snow in the foreground, it's just on a really low opacity.

the funny thing is you requested a critique. Even If I wanted to I couldn't and I don't even want to. I cant say anything other than it is excellent.
