Okay, rather that do a 'Fav and run', I decided to write a critique on this.Vision-wise, the only thing that keeps it from getting a full 5 out of 5 is the lack of scenery. That is not a criticism, and i'm not saying it's a bad thing because the focus is after all on Vulpix and Arcanine (also, i'm not one to talk when it comes to using minimal scenery ^^), but unfortunately it causes me to wonder whether more could've been added. I'm not suggesting that would automatically make it better - believe me, I think this Art is spectacular just as it is - it just leaves me feeling curious of 'what could've been'.Definitely deserves a high rating for originality. I didn't realise this was a pair of Pokemon at first (more on that a little bit later). The style is very unique to you and your other work, but has kept key elements that are key to the Pokemon's identity (Arcanine's long flowing fur + Vulpix's curls). Really like how much of Arcanine's fur has been parted in a way that almost resembles flames (him being a Fire-Type after all). It's also a very unique double act (one that I personally have yet to see in the Pokemon Art out there). They're not 2 pokemon that I would automatically think of together; often, it's usually evolutionary-chains or 'the starter trios'. But two fire types based on Hound species just makes so much sense that now I feel 'why didn't anyone else think of that?'I don't think I can say much about the technique that I haven't already covered in my previous paragraphs. Other than I absolutely love it!I've got to say, I was instantly blown away at the sight of this before I realised who it actually was (by reading the title). But at the same time, it loses just a very minimal score for Impact because I didn't instantly think 'Vulpix and Arcanine' when I first saw it. That might've been because Vulpix is partially buried under Arcanine's mane, which while very adorable and very beneficial to the Originality and Vision scores, makes the little Fox tougher to see at first glance. Then again, that's probably more of a shortcomming from me for not being able to see it at first, which is why any deduction i'm giving on the Impact score is as minimal as it can get.
