You have killer value design and readability. I'm not questioning what's happening here, at all, and there are no blurred lines or hesitant strokes between one wolf and the other. The lack-on-white head pairing is instantly hooking and you can read from expression and positioning 'predator + victim / prey' immediately.
The speculars on the black fur and the wet nose and mouth on the white parts give so much delicious riveting painful contrast and cinematic flow.
The DROOL the SCARRING the PINK AROUND THE BLUE EYE. Ugh. I'm fanning myself.
You can tell what all your materials are from your rendering -- fur, wet gums, mucosal membrane, drool, leather, metal.
Great motion. Great composition.
If I HAD to change something about it? I would enhance the 'sharpness' of the teeth by blurring some of the back ones in the mouths and shadowing them. I might add some pressure wrinkles on the white muzzle where it's being pressed/pulled because compressed fur direction sells contact. I might reduce the saturation of the red eye so the eye isn't forced to jump back and forth trying to decide who to make eye contact with. I would also blur the non-focal chains. If you do that (just on the edges of the background chains) then your faces are going to POP out. The scene will gain a level of depth and awareness and realism. I'm talking about the SEVEN LINKS AROUND THE DROOL COMING FROM THE WHITE WOLF'S MOUTH and THE ONES THAT ARE VERY SHARP / VISIBLE ABOVE THEIR HEADS.
These types of minor tweaks and changes are all artist preference and this image, without any changes, at all, is high value and lovely. Your work is exceptionally crafted and emotionally building.
Thank you for sharing.
I'm transitioning from traditional art to digital art and would appreciate any advice YOU might have for ME, too.
