Diving (WiP) by NatoktheDragon

Originally drawn in Miiverse.

This is a pic I've been working on for several days. Probably my most efforted pic ever. I'm pretty proud of it so far, but not completely. The placement of the scales looks a bit weird. I tried to make them more realistic. But I think it looks better than it did before. What do you think? Also, the part of the tail fin that's slightly broken looks a bit weird too. I'm gonna fix it tomorrow. Please give advice and critique! Wouls be hightly appreciated.

Anyway. hope you like it. I worked hard on it.

Woah, I wasn't expecting this! That lineart looks completely perfect to me. It's so smooth, and I like how the lines are thicker/thinner in some places (I know you did that with some other drawings). I also love all the tiny details like the scarred dorsal fin and the damaged tail-fin. I really can't see anything that needs improvement, it looks amazing! It's obvious that you put a LOT of time and effort into the lineart. I can't wait to see it coloured and finished. :)

I don't normally write long comments like that. XD But I didn't want to write a short cra.ppy comment after you spent so long working on this.

I appreciate that! I wish more people wrote long comments like that... It's kinda annoying when I work on a pic for hours, and the only thing people say is "Cool!". I mean seriously, is that all I get for working so long on a pic? :/

I hate those kinds of comments. But I suppose it's better than getting no comments at all.

now the proper comment.
I really love this pic! The pic looks dynamic, I love how the head thingy is so curvy. I also love how the line art is so freaking smooth. This pic is just perfect! I also love all the details you added, you can really see you put really much effort in it. And WOW 9 hours! I wouldn't have the patience to spent so much time on a painting. This is epic dude, I can't wait to see it finished.

Thank you very much! But is there anything you think needs improvement?

Also, why haven't you liked it? Just wondering.

Sadly, I don't think anyone bothers to click on black-and-white things. This deserves a lot more attention.

The lineart is so... thick and rich. (Can rich even be used to describe lines; I am not certain, but it seems fitting). I love this style of lineart. Overall, this is a smooth painting and it flows nicely.
