EDIT: Thank's to

for pointing out that the image is lacking interaction between the guy and the crab I changed it a bit, hope you like it!

Hey folks, long time no see! As some of you might know I am busy learning new stuff.... selftaugh and thats f*cking hard and.... well, not very resting and extremelly time consuming

But hey, I feel like I am improving, slow and painfully boring but I'M IMPROVING FOR GODS SAKE!!!

I thought to redo an old piece because I wanted to see If I could improve it etc... Aaaaand I picked one that I know that I liked back then

All in all I see that I learned something in the past months but I also want to hear YOUR thoughts about it so please:

go crazy with the critiques!

aaaaand here is the old version of this thingie

Awesome, I like the feel of this, I saw your prior work of this, did you go back in and add a like atmosphere effect around the creature ?

*Nowio Feb 8, 2013 Professional Digital Artist

yeah, also changed several things and added what i learned so far^^

~thesorrow1 Feb 9, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

Yeah Im working on learning anatomy atm for a better understanding of figure drawing/ perspective. But I may do the same with my A light in the dark picture.

Sounds like a plan

*Reganov Dec 30, 2012 Digital Artist

This is a major improvement on the old version dude, the feeling of heat is there in the atmosphere, it feels thick and smoggy. The character feels like he is engaging the monster a lot more with the hot winds blowing his cloak back.

^{The only thing I could suggest to improve it further would be try and make the monster more engaged with the character, this could be done in many ways;
-by tilting the monsters head downward
-by elevating the character onto a cliff
-by attempting to make it look like the monsters eyes are looking downward, difficult with the design though}Either way it's awesome work

*Nowio Dec 30, 2012 Professional Digital Artist

Thank you for the compliment! And great tips you have there, I think I'll go with putting the guy on a cliff and also try to tilt the head a bit down

*Reganov Dec 30, 2012 Digital Artist

Sweet, I'll watch out for an update

*Nowio Dec 30, 2012 Professional Digital Artist

Done

Don't hesitate to say something about the changes, are they as you imagined or is somethin overdone /missing?

*Reganov Dec 30, 2012 Digital Artist

Awesome dude, that made a real difference!
Only thing would be moving him slightly to the right a little, and then giving him a shadow cast behind him from the light of the monster

*Nowio Dec 30, 2012 Professional Digital Artist

ugh >.< completelly forgott the shadow.... gonna add it later

thanks!
