Description
I am EXTREMELY proud of this one... The amount of attention i payed to every detail and nuance really payed off, but yet the time it took was driving me INSANE!
I will be taking a short break from drawing ebil, demented monsters with too much detail bent on eating everyone's brains...
I really would appreciate constructive feedback on this one, guys! please let me know your thoughts such as: Does the excessive detail take away from the pic? Does it need a background? Should i have made the shadows darker? Is there too much slobber? etc...
Enjoy!
EDIT: Thanks so much for the Daily Dev everybody! It really made my day

Horrendus. Crazy. Awesome. You have mastered photoshop and tablets well! I can't believe you made this from the lineart--it almost looks as if it were completely digital.

Oh my!!! That's one hell of an artwork!
Amazing details. And this may sound weird, but I just adore that drooling! So lifelike.

Thank you very much! Yes, i debated long and hard about the amount of drool and decided: ZEH MORES ZE BETTERS!

Wise decision, as that picture makes eny one dribble I sure am envious of your shading skills!

Look, if you can't even post a real comment, then please don't say anything... It really feels demeaning when i don't get any kind of feedback when i explicitly asked for it, and encouraged advanced critique...

definitely a wow!
the details are exceptional! and i don't think it doesn't eat too much from the image. i think it makes the image more realistic.
i guess black is a good background for such a scary creature. this can be a movie poster!
p.s. you can add more glint to the teeth. shiny things!

Amazing work! The detail really makes it.
Strong colors too!
as for the drool, less would probably be more and maybe letting the background nuances on the left spread a little farther into the figure would add more of a sense on the space that it is in.
But really a GREAT piece!

wowowowow!!! I can see why you are proud of this! The detail is insane, and I don't think it takes away from the picture at all. The shadows are beautiful and realistic, and I love the way you colored the teeth and claws.
I think you went a little over board with the slobber on the top teeth, but it looks good nonetheless!! Man, your art never fails to impress me!!
