Oh my gawd, it's finally done After hours of work, here's ~w22374 's 60 commission I'm really glad of the outcome of this one And yeah, this is my first "real" submission in a while. I appologize for that as well...

So, it's a shiny Rayquaza doing a draco meteor attack during a storm at sea... Lol, don't ask me how it happened

Anyway, what else can I say... I think this is one of the best things I'll submit in a while. Too much trial and error to my tastes... Very time consuming. So, I hope you guys will like it

I agree with the critiquer--the blurry waves take away from the tension in the piece. Blurry water is usually an effect of long exposure in photography, but this is more like a quick shot, a mere moment..
But man, Rayquaza looks awesome--I love the dynamic pose. The glowing markings are awesome, and I especially love the use of yellow in the meteors. The primary colors bring out the contrast in colors and values. The composition is great, too--a lot of movement in several directions, the water at the bottom going up and out and the meteors, rain and lightning at the top going down. You definitely captured Rayquaza's fearsome side.

Yeah, I kinda realize that now. I'll be more careful next time.
Other than that, thanks a lot for the other compliments ^^ Rayquaza was really hard to draw, so I'm glad he turned out okay

Thanks again for the critique, I really appreciate it Backgrounds aren't my best, so your advice just helps me for the future

this is a really awesome drawing , but i think the color contrast with the blue and the yellow is a bit mehhhh if you wouldve made the water more reflective, or less blue (you know more of a grey-y blue if you get what im saying) and i think it wouldve been alot better, but i still this its FREAKING AWESOME!!!!

Hum... You actually have a point on that aspect... Just know that I'm a bit colorblind as well, so I'm not that good with colors I might do something about it eventually, I don't know But I appreciate the suggestion, and I'll remember it next time
Once again, thanks for the compliments

I know why Rayquaza's attacking the sea! A Magikarp was annoying it!
Okay, never mind. Anyway, this amazing. Rightfully one of your best deviations. I just love the background here and all the 'chaos effects'. Sure, as someone already mentioned, it could be a bit less blurry (specifically the lightning), but it's still awesome. (Speaking of lightning, shouldn't it, well, give off more light? Perhaps like the glowing lines on Rayquaza?)
As for the foreground, that's also wonderful. I really like glowing things, so I really like the glowing meteorites and Rayquaza's glowing line things. The splash is also really cool, as are the waves.
All in all... It's just epic.
