Description So I painted this creature the other night. Took me ages but I had fun doing it (Approx 7 hours to be more precise). You can find the livestream from when I was painting it here: [link]

I was slightly inspired by Jonas JΓΆdicke and his art piece "God of Evanescence" when I first started doing the stripes. How ever I did not want to add the same kind of glowing effect but I am very fond of the cyan clolor. You can find his picture here: [link]

Then I also got inspired by the body shape of a lizard, and that's pretty much it

Hope you like it!

Overall

Once again, you've made a beautiful piece of art.
At first, I would like to point out the areas that could've used a little more work. (I'm sorry I couldn't remind you BEFORE you uploaded, since it was low-quality sharing)
The rock the creature has its feet on looks odd compared to the rest of the area where the creature is emphasized. Meaning, that the rock should look detailed as well, because it's in the same 'area' or in the same range in the 'depth of field'.
The grass infront of the rock has small circles, I don't see how the light works that way, meaning the creature should currently be blocking out the 'highlights' in the grass, what I think is causing it is because of the dots very bright colour (The same as to the left of the creature, which is placed in the sun).
And yes, the ear, the ear should've been placed a little more in the back of its face, I see that now.(I know you mentioned it, but I didn't see it clearly).

To sum up, this is an overall amazing picture, with very minor mistakes. I'm glad that you've kept up your own borderline cartoony/realistic style as it really makes it more creepy when you look at the picture.
That sort of insecurity is becoming your trademark.

Good luck with the next piece!

Thanks a lot man and thanks got pointing these things out. I'll admit that all of it are not things I would have thought of myself so it was helpful as well.

My trademark? Aw man feels good, sort of. Or does it? I can't tell. :S

Thanks a lot for taking your time writing a review mate.

Best of luck to you as well!

That was a somewhat wild stream. Does look better here than in the 360p stream

Streaming sites are more laggy than youtube in general so I doubt I'd be able to receive the stream at high fidelity anyways

That pug-salamander is quite the creepy crawly :]

Gorgeous use of color, fantastic lighting and well done on the curiously adorable yet strange looking creature hybrid.
