Thanks, you are too kind. If I was a better painter it would have been even better with the same time / Gimp & mouse combo.

Yeah, people are always complaining when in fact the problem is in their own laziness / attitude / lack of hard work.

I checked your work and you are doing well! One thing that you could work on is colors, as of now you are painting things in color you think they are in, but when in fact they are not. Let me explain - you paint a grey wolf in a forest. You know the wolf fur is grey and the forest is brownish / green. The wolf can be mostly grey and the forest mostly brown / green - but you need to connect the colors, otherwise the completely grey wolf will look as "pasted" into the picture from entirely different lightning conditions. Basically you need to have a same set of colors on both the wolf and the forest background, especially in strong shadow / light.

I'm only telling you this because I think you are doing well with realistic painting and it could help you. It's not easy to get it right, people do studies etc. But I think if you thought about it and put some effort into it you would get it in no time.

If you don't like critiques at this point it's cool, best luck with your art and have fun doing it.

Glad you like it, and that you consider it dark. I was afraid adding that ent could make it somewhat naive or childish. I guess I managed to made him mean enough.

I checked your videos and pictures, kickass rendering man.

it didn't made it childish, fits the surroundings pretty well, and makes it more... sinister, on its unique ancient way. thanks for watching them, hopefully I will start creating original works as well in the near future...
