bluedraggy: All these wholesome, actual good pictures are hurting my artistic confidence. Here's another done by me from scratch. TBH, though, I'm having real doubts that I want to go on doing my own works. While I don't think they're absolutely terrible, I - unfortunately - have eyes. I might, I might not. But I think not for awhile. Perspective is hard as hell.
But anyway, here's the lethal reptilian water-dweller in her native habitat, lurking submerged while spying her next victim.
Kris566: @bluedraggy: It looks great! I especially like the reflection of Quill's eye in the water. You definitely shouldn't give up on making your own art, but if you feel you need a break from it that's totally understandable. Oh and of course, congratulations on posting the 500th image of Quill-Weave to the booru!
P.S. Your posts always have the best descriptions.
Zargothrax: @bluedraggy: Some self-doubt and self-criticism is healthy and needed for personal improvement, but what you tell about your own works seems rather excessive in this regard; you did really well on this one. Drawing from scracth is not easy.
The anatomy looks correct (I could nitpick, but why?), the pose is not stiff, the water looks really nice (don't know how you drew that), most peolple struggle with hands, but you drew them very well, and the linework is good too.
Perspective is hard, though I suspect you meant foreshortening. It worths drawing the limbs as cylinders first as they are much easier to imagine and position in 3D space. This can help with perspective as well.
KuroNeko: This is funny and cute,I really like the shading on the parts that are underwater and her reflection on the water surface.
Also I know how it feels to look at your work and, no matter how good it is, the only thing you see is all the details you did wrong and how worse it is comared to other artists works. It really hurt. If you feel like you need a break then you should take it, better stop for some times and come back to it latter than to try to force yourself and give up for good.

Also, I want to take a shower with her.
