well this was just meant to be a basic ref of galaxia but it turned into something more, lol
So yes if u want to know a bit about him go to my gallery folder and read there is a lot of interesting stuff about him. like his age what he is and does etc.. i am actually quite happy of this and =PearlEden helped me with the colour at first he was ultrablue but he said put grey there and it worked thanks sunshine!!! ^^ Galaxia is just sitting on the top of a very high cliff (see clouds below) looking down and with him is Galaxia (meta knights sword) for the star pendant i actually used a metal star and stuck it there and this picture glitters hope you like it ^-^ coloured with derwent coloursoft and faber polychromos pencils, on grey cloudy paper ^^ Comments

The good stuff that absolutely amazes me though is the texture in both wings. They aren't transparent like lots of other devilish winged characters which gives it scene of taste and style. The shading is stunning. I will never EVER be able to shade like you. For traditional art I am amazed at what you pencils can do. The colors are perfect. You did an amazing job.
The overall anatomy of him is alright, but there are some minor things. First off, the left cheek (our left, his right) bulges out too much. I understand the cheek tufts, but if you were going for real wide ones, you should have moved the ear further up his head, making the left side of his face not look so wide. Also, the upper back part of the front leg that's bent looks slightly odd, perhaps the angle is too sudden. The upper muscle in the back leg seems out of proportion with the stomach, or maybe the stomach could have been slightly stockier. Also, exposing the back shoulder blade of his right front leg (the one behind the wing) is way to large and unnecessary, at least to be showing over his back that much.
And the Background: The rock has great texture! And so do the clouds in the foreground. But if he were meant to be up in the clouds, you should have filled in the background behind him more, just even with a little bit of color. It looks slightly unfinished otherwise.
Hope this helps.
