Just... no words. I have absolutely no words for this piece. I stumbled across it by accident and to be quite honest, I'm very glad I came across it.
Vision:
- I am left speechless. The colors are so clear and vivid and the small details you add to it is amazing. Like the broken pieces of ice in the lake/ocean, the northern lights in the sky, and the ice on Suicune's front left leg. That detail specifically is something I've never seen.
Originality:
- I've seen a lot of people attempt to draw Pokemon if they actually existed. And I feel really bad for doing this, but I'm only giving a 4.5 because it's something that's been done often.
Technique:
- As I've said before, drawing Pokemon realistically has been a concept done over and over and over again. But how you've done it is the best I've ever seen it. Most of the realistic art I've seen has made the Pokemon look ugly in a sense. But how you made Suicune added a sort of beauty to it which I really admired.
Impact:
- It left me speechless. That's all that needs to be said.
So this piece... just.... wow. I may have some bias in this critique since Suicune is my favorite out of the Legendary Beasts Trio but this piece truly is amazing so it doesn't matter. I always pictured Suicune as a wolf more than anything and so, when I saw this, I fell in love with it immediately. So, in short, keep doing what you're doing. Your art is stunning. Keep amazing people.

Overall, this drawing is well executed and highly amazing. Some things original, some things not so much, but for the most part, it's good.
Vision: I love the little details you put in, such as in the background, individual stars and aurora borealis, if I may spell that right, not sure. I love the piercing red eyes. And the fact this doesn't look exactly like suicune is quite amazing. this is realistic, and for the fact, I like the fact it doesn't look exactly like suicune. This angle isn't easily drawn, but you pulled it off quite well.
Originality: Someone making realistic pokemon- it ain't a first. But you pulled it off too well. Too well for words (; Your coat isn't as glossy and sleek, and that might be a downside to some, but I love it. I like how layered the fur is, and how much there is. But a downside is it doesn't have those white streamer-like things on the tail.
Technique: I like the technique for the background. I don't know what brush you used, but it looks amazing, how the mountains don't have AMAZING detail, but the brush gives it a texture I can't name. I love the crackles in the ice, and how some of the chunks broke off
Overall, this drawing is well executed and highly amazing. I hope this review is accurate, at least in the sense of other's minds.

First off, I want to start off by saying that I love this painting. A thing I was a bit skeptical about was the huge amount of detail to the fur, and the slightly chubby appearance you gave it. The chubby appearance warred with the fact that Suicune has always been slender in it's appearances. Now, I also realize that may have just been excess fur, but at first thought, it seems to be a bit chubby. The only other nit-picking thought I have is the attention to detail with the fur. Suicune is not only slender, but seems to be glossy and smooth with it's coat. I always envisioned Suicune being less of a scraggly wolf, and more of a glossy coated dog-thing. Perhaps you could've thinned the neck a bit more too (even if it's just fluff), but it's still beautiful. The pros of this picture certainly outweigh the cons. I'll start by complimenting the choice of background. You could've chosen a typical lake scene, but you were original and went with an icey scene. It's cold and barren, but it just compliments the beauty all together. The fact that it's just ice where Suicune is standing seems to give it the illusion that Suicune is creating the ice beneath it's very paws, which is a neat concept to think about. The last thing I like about the background is the aurora borealis. It's a beautiful sight, and adds to the color palette in this painting. I love the way you made the mane pop and fade out. The crest on it's head has gorgeous detail, even if it could be slanted back a bit more for the sake of accuracy.
Well, I just wanted to drop in and give a critique. I hope I didn't offend, or bore you to death! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s⦠" width="15" height="15" alt="

Ohhh thank you so much for this wonderful critique!!

Ahh, great picture! Very beautiful and elegant, and it flows very nicely. The colors are beautiful and the lighting is just as great! I really love how the icey crest shimmers, but my favorite is the wonderful shine on those curvy locks. The fur looks very soft, and I love how it's layered. The background isn't too distracting either, though the lighting is a bit confusing for me.
Now, drawing a Pokemon realistically isn't particularly original. Neither is making it particularly wolf-like. However, much of that is brushed away with some of the wonderful personal changes you made! That crest is crazy beautiful. Making it ice or crystal-like wasn't highly original either, but the design of it is very nice. And as for that ice-covered paw... I'm not sure I get it, but I've never seen anything like that. It's actually quite a nice touch, especially for leading you into the face.
Your art is always so out there, I'm always amazed by the incredible softness of it. You present things in a way that doesn't hurt my eyes or bore me, and that is quite a feat!
Overall, a wonderful image of complete grace. I can picture this beauty hopping over the water like it's a featherweight, as well as see it unleash a terrible ice attack! As Pokemon should be. Wonderful work!

Of course! There wasn't much to critique rather than compliment, though. Your eye for fantasy and detail is amazing. c:

wow, first off, amazing job. i always love when people make realistic looking pokemon and i think you did a wonderful job with it. the colors are awesome and work well together, and the landscape works great with the crystal theme. the vivid red eyes are a great contrast against the blues and purple and it acts as one of the pictures focal points. i liked how you added the crystal creeping up the suicune's leg, which doesnt appear on the original pokemon, it makes the picture more interesting and adds to it's originality. personally i think suicune looks more like a cheetah cuz of it's thin body, but it works well in wolf form also : ) again, great job, i love it.

This is an amazing picture. The vision is superb, and the originality is amazing too! I do believe I have seen people try to make Pokemon look real, but this is probably the best I have seen yet! I, myself, have always wondered what Pokemon would look like if they were actually real, and you my friend, have helped me see what this particular Pokemon would look like. Your technique is good. The impact of this picture is very hard to describe. I knwo it has had a major impact on my take of Suicune.
When I first looked at the picture in my messages, I immiedietly knew it was Suicune, so I have to give you that!
Overall amazing job, keep it up!e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s⦠" width="15" height="15" alt="

Too bad the real Suicune doesn't resemble a wolf and instead looks like a freakish dolphin on legs.
