Description
I'm really proud of this one.
A winged wolf, who I am naming 'Shadowing' for now until I think of something better, standing on a high cliff at night. Just sat down at the computer with openCanvas up and this came out. Had originally intended on daytime, with sun rays from the sky, but nighttime worked out MUCH better.
Done on oC; ~12 hours on and off

I'll have to say that I don't like the eyes, he looks either blind or like he's a soulless slave, which the rest of his posture really doesn't indicate. I love the rest of him, though. The white markings empathize the darkness of his fur, the jewellery gives him a kind of status, the long fangs gives him more of an air of mystic, and the wings are a work of art. His posture is great, makes him seem like he's listening to what the wild voice of the night air is whispering into his ear, but also gives him enough power to ignore what the world is telling him, even if he belongs to that world. I think you made the right choice with night-time, although daytime would have been good as well.
As I said, I don't really like the eyes, especially not since he probably hunts a lot from the sky, and therefore needs better eye-sight than most wolves. Otherwise, fantastic.

Thanks for the comment and the favorite. 
About his eye, though; he looks blind because he IS blind in that one eye. His other eye is perfectly fine, (I'm thinking a very light blue), and definitely much sharper than normal wolves, but he has two scars over the right one. I probably didn't put enough emphasis on them, so that'd be my fault, but let's just say that they've faded slightly over the years. The blindness doesn't go away though.

Whoah, that's the longest? When you're such a great artist, I thought it only natural you were used to a lot of criticism and in-depth reading! Oh, and you're welcome.
So he is blind on that eye. Sorry, I didn't recognize the scars for what they were, they really just looked like markings to me. 
Oh well, sorry for making the mistake.
