Nocturnal Night Dazzler

crits please, i have to improve.
dont take care about my feelings or whatever.

To me it seems like he would have a hard time standing up if his two toes on each foot are both "forward facing". He has bird like feet, but birds have one toe "rear facing" to provide stability.

Also, the first word in the paragraph should be "it's".

Very good drawing,nice color and very detailed.Also there is 2 moons?

mhm the only thing i can think of is that the glow of those green bubble ends very abrupt. It could fade more slightly into the dark in my opinion. Apart from that, im, with no knowledge of drawing, not able to find anything wrong in there.
I like the style, even more than the stuff from our forum artmoderator. :)
Have anything else in this style?

Keep it up

try spell checking ur text blurb, and y is one moon bright and the other isn't? doesn't make sense when they're in the same direction in the sky. and wheres the eyes? i cant see any

maybe because there are no eyes?! it's a freakin nocturnal predator, he relies on other senses. Eyes would be just an extra burden. Bats have eyes, but can't see shit with them, so they might just as well lose them. And in a few thousand years they will.

I honestly could only tell what I'm looking at by viewing your thumbnail.


This is nonsense....

yeah, sorry, my bad. But there could be a blind predator nonetheless. Haven't you seen those Discovery documentaries about those 2 shitty probes exploring some virtual alien planet? Also caves are full of blind things that keep on living.

i personally think it looks very cool.

This is true, I was just stating that your notion of bats losing their eyes through evolution is flawed. I could go into details but meh....

the only thing i'd say you should really fix is the trees in the far background. They need some color and texture to them not just black siluettes, you need to smooth into that, create some more depth. But the creature itself is fucking amzing, i could see this on a swamp card man. Really excellent work.

Makes me feel like i should get my shit together and prectice more, a LOT more.

I like it

Don't dare to not like

thx for the positive feedback and all.

i have to mention that i wont change this picture anymore. at the moment i put my name on something i drew, i declare it as finished as it is. so i take the crit and feedback to use it on further pictures.

@FLUFF: hrm... maybe it spend alot of time with runing around? seems to be possible with these feet.
i had some other feet in my mind, while drawing that beast, but the aim of the contest was, to make a high res version of one of 4600 creature-thimbnails. and this creature i decided to draw... has such strange feet.
about the text... jeah... i had to hurry and rushed it.

@Callahan: why not? or maybe a nearby planet with a moon. i thought it looks nice.

@Born²Modificate: no, sry. i have not much finished drawings. usually i have not the patience to make more than visually watchable "brain-farts" ...lol

@Nuclear Arbitor :about the moon... it is covered with an strange atmosphere, which contains micro particels. these particels are glowing bright, when they are hit by electrons. i didnt have to mention, that ther is a star (, you dont see on the picture, cause it would be behind... no bellow you... whatever) which fires electrons all the time... so the moon glows, and the planet behind the moon didnt.
... or maybe its a fictional world and the creator didnt care, how it would work but rather how it would look?

and the eyes... yes.. i thought about, how this creature noticed his prey, too.
but how should i know? i just drew it, but that didnt make me know, how it could work...
i assume it has some strange infrared sensing orgarns within the throat... or maybe he managed t somehow whit the air vibrations which hit the tentacels in its mouth? i really dont know...

@erwt: yes the trees. i should have add fog. with fog, the glow of the light-blob-things would look much cooler and with fog, the black trees wouldnt look strange.
i have my problems with creating depth. maybe i shoud practice this somehow.

alright that works but by electrons do u mean lightning bolts or like a static electricity field or something? it probably be simpler to just have it have particles that get heated up by x-rays or something and glow but what ever. the glow spots remind me of angler fish.
