I've never done a critique before! >w< This will be my first ever, so if you disagree with anything I've stated, please don't be too angry! oAo

Let's start with the good stuff! ;w;
Gurl, you got a lot of skill with dragons! >w<
- The details of the horns and teeth are amazing!
- The glowing affect of the eye really works!
- The scale patterns on the underbelly and the different shades of its scales are great! >w<
- The pose of having the head poised to strike gives it a realistic feature of a reptilian animal's anatomy. >w<

Maybe some things you should spend more time on owo:
- The background. This might not seem as important because it is not the main focus of the picture, but to really bring a picture to life, it is important to have at least some shading to show realistically where the light would be coming from.
- Your technique of colouring. This is also not the main focus of the picture, I know, but using a smoother technique of colouring, (perhaps trying to making little circles with your pencil) can really help the realism and maturity of your picture. ;w; However, I do really like the time you spent on the scales of the body. >w< Try the same on the background and underbelly. Shading also helps.

Hope I helped, and I wasn't too harsh! =w= I'm not very good at these things. OTL

Oh, the reason why the backround is kinda blank, it's because I'm always afraid if I put too much details in the backround, the main object won't be that visible.

Ah yes, but as I explained in the critique, even simple shading can really bring out the main object. ouo
