The anatomy looks fantastic, and I like how rough you made the feathers. The sketchy background hints at cold, and they are announcing what the Starks always say, 'Winter is Coming.'

I really love ravens and I really like that you draw them so often. 
I'm not going to point any mistakes (if there even are any), this piece is so pretty and atmospheric. The ravens look brilliant, I love their poses and anatomy. Especially the one on the foreground looks amazing.
Your pencil work is very beautiful and detailed. The different shades look very good and the composition of the picture is really nice.
Awesome work!

I sure do like ravens. I'm planning to draw them sometimes, I wish I just had enough time, almost everything I draw is scheduled. Too many contests it seems
But you're welcome! ^^

Oohhh beautiful job. I love the greys, it makes the picture seem so depressing added with the title. Awesome crows, they look so real!

thanks much ^^ well i cannot imagine something really optimistic with these birds, they can be everywhere but their color and whole appearence gives them gloomy aura. The title is because i often think about rain, its not sad, rain washes everything, bad and good and world becomes again a "grey" it is weeping down all sins and happinies to becoming again neutral. thats how i look on it .

Oh wow, that's a really interesting way to think about it. I don't find rain as a sad thing either, but I never really thought about it being a neutral thing. O: I think that the appearance of the crows also makes the picture have a sort of ethereal look, even though they are very earthy at the same time.

Beautiful. There's always a certain quality about pencils that simply can't be replicated by any other media; pencils seem to bring out more beauty and emotion in pictures like this than colour or a program could.
I love your work. <3

i think the same about pencils, they are always working method, Black and white can express lots of things. I can say in past i did almost everythin in pencils, its some dejavu for me.

Secondary feathers of the raven in the foreground looks strange, they should be much longer. There should be more contrast here as well. But it as great mood.
