Description Hey there ^_^/

There was a contest over at pojo (card game forum for those who don't know)

I submitted this and got quite a bit of negative feedback so i wanted to see what you guys thought and whether you agree or not considering i value your opinion more as I KNOW you guys are artists

Okay comments I had:
The backgrounds are 'meh' and the shading on Blue-Eyes is eww (not many people seemed to like the shading and i know i suck at backgrounds i was also rushed cos of the deadline)
The wings make it look horrendous
Paper thin tail (at least this guy was nice about their comment)
Wings don't do that

Image I worked with can be found here - [link]

I also used the cards and a couple of screenshots as reference

Now I'm NOT asking you guys to not agree with them cos what's the point I wouldn't get better if people did that so please PLEASE be honest with me; I can take it

You could also take it as a kinda remake of this [link]

Only complaints I would have are that the tail and jaws are paper-thin, but other than that, it is a very nice work.

I honestly have no idea what pojo are on about (i'm a member myself xD) That is a really good piece, I don't really mind about the shading and I totally disagree about the background being "meh." It may be simplistic, but that adds to the general effect.

Thanks; I was quite happy with my entry and then it started getting ripped apart and I was just a bit like ;o;... don't be mean!

The shading's not realistic, but it's still very pretty.
The linework itself isn't perfect, but it's still impressive and awesome looking.
In other words, the people over at pojo can stuff it

Are you sure you want to post art on a site that's so strongly negative?

I think for one of your early attempts at a dragon you've got off to a good start. Especially since the Blue Eyes has an unusual face shape conmpared to most dragons. And I liked the shading. I can see where that one person's coming from talking about how thin the tail is but it would be easy for you to fix this and add some bulk to it.

Yeah it was only for the contest otherwise i wouldn't post art on a forum for card games

Of course sometimes it's hard to tell whether some of them are just stupid kids. Is there anything I need to work on specifically (other than the tail obviously) or just work on dragons in general?

So at least you won't have to put up with abuse regularly then. ^^

There is that too. Some forums see it as "cool" to be insulting to others. Unfortunately I'm not a good judge of drawing dragons in general so I can't say much.
