Description Okay. I'm about at the end of my rope with this image. It's been over a week, and this experience can go fly a kite. I will eventually finish it, but until then... Whatever.

I got carried away with the clouds and they make zero sense whatsoever but I don't give a damn. I used a photo reference of a super cell from extremeinstability.com for inspiration (which is a really cool site, by the way, go and visit).

Damn, Tails, why are you so complicated? The rivers of tears and snot haven't been added yet. Maybe this will be done next month.

Also, a big thanks to my buds *kapieren , *Capt-Topknot , and =GearOtter for giving me helpful hints and crits along the way.

Thank you! It's been a real adventure working on this, it's taught me quite a bit so far.

You're right about the clouds, but that's easily fixable. I understand your lack of desire to work on it any more, since I often experience the same thing myself, but it really is a wonderfully entertaining image, and I'm sure you'd be pleased with it when it's finished.

Please, do share your thoughts! Any suggestions are most welcome. I generally have huge, huge problems with backgrounds (which is ultimately no great secret).

I am pretty tired of working on it for now, but I will more than likely pick it back up in maybe a week or so. I would like to see it finished myself, as there has been a lot of time already invested in it and it would be a real waste to let it drop.

Well, I'm not sure what ideas you have for the characters, but you're ace at figures, so I'll only comment upon the background.

Are you planning on adding colour to this, or leave it monochrome? I personally think he clouds to the right and centre are fine, only the ones on the left look weak. Maybe try doing something similar to what you did on the right on the left as well? It would give the supercell a more uniform look, make it look more tempestuous and vortex-like.

I'll be adding colour after, yes!

Ahhh, that's a fantastic idea, I will definitely give that a whirl when I pick this back up and see where it goes. Thank you for the critique and suggestions!

Grand, I can't wait to see what it looks like when all coloured up!

No problem; I hope you manage to find a suitable solution to the bakcground. c:
