Description This is what Australia as a whole has been like the last couple of months. Seriously.
Anyway this picture has taken me forever. I desperately need to do some experimenty speedpaints. I've fallen back into my old bad habit of agonising over insignificant details. o_o
Not amazed by the results but fairly happy...

Really soft colouring, shading looks so pretty<3 Poses are great, especially Raikou looks cool when he's jumping towards Entei and Suicune! Background is great, I like that lightning. If I should say something critique, I'd say that Suicunes head looks a bit too big, but just a little bit so it doesn't matter at all Wonderful work<3

Oh, don't hold back on the crit! I love it, especially when I have taken this long on an image. You're quite right, Suicune's head is out of proportion, and that is something very basic (and fairly stupid) I did because I am so used to drawing Suicune, and didn't notice because I was agonising over stupid small details. I do need to stop doing that, I draw so much better!
Anyway thank you for one of the first honest comments I've had in a while. It's weird but it feels better than being praised.

It's quite hard for me to find something to criticize, but I'm glad that you liked my comment :'D All those details are really pretty in my opinion. But you'll learn from mistakes, can't wait what you'll upload later

Thankyou!

As for the link, you have actually linked to your gallery on one of my deviations before. While I did look through it back then I didn't comment at the time, probably because I didn't have time to.
You have potential and indeed practice is the best improvement method. You're still at a very basic level, which is fine; all artists start somewhere.
I do suggest, however, that you try and refrain from posting links to your gallery or deviations in other's deviation comments. A single post on someone's front page is fine, even putting "I'm new and would love your opinion on my gallery [link]" in your signature is fine, but dA etiquette would say that deviation comments are for comments on the deviation itself. When you finish a perfectly legitimate comment such as your first sentence with a link like your second one, it tends to make one think you just want the attention and weren't sincere when you wrote the first, which may not be at all true.
I'm not trying to offend, just pointing out that you'll gain more comments on your gallery if you are less persistent and more sincere.
