Hello! Here's from with a comment!

This looks really dreamy thanks to the soft brushwork. The background looks breath-taking, and the tiger itself looks majestic, with small hints that it's no ordinary animal. As for my criticism, i'm afraid it does lie in the the overall painting of the image. Like i said, the soft brushwork helped create that ethereal feel, but there's not enough crisp or solid edges. This makes everything look like it's blending into each other, making it hard to discern objects separately. This is really apparent with the tiger, as i couldn't exactly tell its body apart from the background. I also think the coloring adds to "blurriness" of the pic. The only things that stand out is the pink flowers at the bottom, and the bright blue details on the tiger, and that's because the value of those colors are bright. The background lacks that (except the waterfall), and it makes it hard to tell what's what. Making the light shining on the trees a brighter shade would definitely help separate the trees from the background, as well as give a better sense that light is shining through. This tutorial is really good at explaining how to lay down values before you go in and color. graveweaver.tumblr.com/post/17…

The only other things i have left to point out is the tiger and the waterfall. The anatomy of the tiger seems a bit off, but i'm no expert on big cats, so i can only suggest looking up references to help with drawing its body. Same thing with the waterfall. Look up references or even tutorials here on DA on how to render water and spray.

And that's the end of my comment. I hope you find this helpful to you, and keep up the good work!

Hi! I'm from ProjectComment! 

Dang! The amount of detail you into this is incredible! The scenery has got to be one of the strongest points of this piece. I see that you used different colors to make the greens, such as darker green, yellow, brown and a mixture of dullish colors in order to make the background look more realistic! You did a great job on that. As a result, I am not completely distracted from the figure of the piece! It's also notable how you did the waterfall! You added a lot of highlights into the waterfall, which is good, because liquids, when you look at them, are full of highlights. The flowers in front of the tiger also look well done. Once again, you don't use overly bright hues, but a nice shade of pink that is easy to the viewer's eyes. 
Just some tweaks I think you should make to this piece would be the tiger. It's well done! I can see that you added a lot of detail with the fur, the stripes and you did a good job with the glowing blue around its face, body and eyes, giving it a mystical aura. However, the features of the tiger feel too blended in, especially around the edges. It's hard to tell where the body is in relation to the head and if there is a leg in the shot. I think for future pieces, you should give some sharper details to the tiger and some more distinguishable shadows so that the viewers can determine the position of the tiger and won't be confused. 
Otherwise, you did a great job on this! Keep up the amazing work!
