First off, I want to start off by saying that I love this painting. A thing I was a bit skeptical about was the huge amount of detail to the fur, and the slightly chubby appearance you gave it. The chubby appearance warred with the fact that Suicune has always been slender in it's appearances. Now, I also realize that may have just been excess fur, but at first thought, it seems to be a bit chubby. The only other nit-picking thought I have is the attention to detail with the fur. Suicune is not only slender, but seems to be glossy and smooth with it's coat. I always envisioned Suicune being less of a scraggly wolf, and more of a glossy coated dog-thing. Perhaps you could've thinned the neck a bit more too (even if it's just fluff), but it's still beautiful. The pros of this picture certainly outweigh the cons. I'll start by complimenting the choice of background. You could've chosen a typical lake scene, but you were original and went with an icey scene. It's cold and barren, but it just compliments the beauty all together. The fact that it's just ice where Suicune is standing seems to give it the illusion that Suicune is creating the ice beneath it's very paws, which is a neat concept to think about. The last thing I like about the background is the aurora borealis. It's a beautiful sight, and adds to the color palette in this painting. I love the way you made the mane pop and fade out. The crest on it's head has gorgeous detail, even if it could be slanted back a bit more for the sake of accuracy.Well, I just wanted to drop in and give a critique. I hope I didn't offend, or bore you to death! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s… " width="15" height="15" alt="" title="(Smile)"/>(P.S. Love your work)
