Description

When i started out drawing this i had very limited knowledge of how to color. I even saved the parts i began doing, so this is some kind of progress map at the same time :3

I lost track of how long this took drawing after about 30ish hours. But this took atleast 40h + to complete all togeather x)

Outlines and more simple stuff was done with my mouse.
Coloring was done on my Wacom Bamboo.

First of all, I do believe that this is one of your best pieces of artwork. It is very detailed without being overly crowded, it has some pretty nice shading and highlights, and there's even glowy things! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/l/l…" width="19" height="19" alt=":la:" title="La la la la"/>

Let's go ahead and get some of the bad things out of the way first. When I zoom in to get a closer look at the work, I can see that there are some parts where the coloring goes out of the lines a bit. I would also like the piece better if there was a nice background to it, something not too detailed, but also something that would stand out, as in not a gradient one. A few simple blurred out trees would have been a lot better. The colors on the side could also go. It takes away the beauty of the piece itself. If this was a reference sheet, then it would be fine, but since it does not appear to be one, I would just let them go. Another thing that might make this better is coloring the lines another color than black. Try to color them a darker color of the thing it is. For example, the gray metals could just be a darker shade of gray, not quite black. The orange should be a darker shade of orange, and so on

Now for the good news, <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/d/d…" width="21" height="15" alt=":dummy:" title="I am a dummy!"/> I really love the tiny details that you put effort into doing, like the bolts and screws. The metal parts look good also, although they could use a bit more work than they already have. Glow always makes a piece even better, more so when it is done correctly like you have done. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)"/>
Good luck in your future drawings!~
