I have to say, this is probably the best I've ever seen Rizyu from you in terms of coloring, so I can only assume that it'll get better from here. There's so much more detail, especially in the little things like hair highlights and the glow from the bracelet and necklace that sets it off.
However, the main issues I see are in the anatomy. Rizyu's torso is way thin, almost Barbie-esque in that it doesn't look like it could actually support his wings, chest, arms, and head. Maybe it's just the way his body is curving that makes it appear that way. Also, his left arm is way long even though his left shoulder is almost being pushed down by the opposite hand. Both arms look too big in comparison to the torso and head, but maybe that's just how I see it.
The only other thing I want to comment on is a bit nit-picky, but it's that the water that's dripping down his pants seems to have no effect on the pants. Darkening the pants to make them looked soaked would be more detail to make this pop.
But, overall I really like this piece. One thing I especially love is the uneven wings. I'm not sure why, but it's almost more appealing seeing that in a natural setting, not everything is symmetrical/perfect. Anyway, I hope my comments have been helpful and/or understandable. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/a/a… " width="15" height="15" alt="

Hrm ill have to look into the water. I thought it looked a bit odd but I could not pick up on that. So thank you =3. As for his body type thats just how he is. When he is like this the wings are just show. They are not for use unlike his feral form. So they either look to big or in case of another image waaaaay to small XD.

it looks very pretty, like the stance, also with the tail. little question... is this the same Rizyu as on all the other pictures? and if it is, where did the wings suddenly come from? i've seen the first comic page and i see the creatures on it all have wings, it's just this is the only picture i've seen this character with wings on yet. he also looks much more... human than the raligards or... the others on that comic page... too human to be the offspring of wolves and dragons, at least?

The fire page of Bloodlines you see the feral forms. That is where their resemblance to wolves and dragons really come out. This is their more humanoid forms. This I just added the wings in for the hell of it. Raligards *even Riz* dont really pull their wings out per say in humanoid form. Their bodies dont have the strength to really use the wings properly unlike their feral forms. I just added them in for flare XD. The page Im working on now that I finally got some inspiration I got a panel that has a humanoid Raligard with a feral one fighting a Sumaren.

I love the rim highlights from where the moon is highlighting him from behind. Because he's right in the centre your eye goes straight to him, but because of his arm diagonally across his chest his pose is far from boring. I really like that water too! ^^

Hmm, is it me or Rizzy looked rather androgynous here?
Nothing wrong with that, it's just he looked rather different this time.

I really like how that one came out, especially with the water effect (or magic effect?) I believe? Either way, it looks very nice!

The only critique I really have is that it's very 'busy'. There's a lot going on, and its a little harsh, I guess? Sorry if that's wrong! 
Great job otherwise! I LOVE the expression!
