This is so cute! I like the faces. I think the horse could use more work though.

Poor Nereid! She looks so overwhelmed!

That is adorable! I love all the different expressions on the wolfy (doggy?) faces.

I do like! The grouping around Nereid seems a bit crowded, though; maybe you could space the doggies out a bit or maybe have only three of them in shot?

Wow!

This has gone from cute to awesome. I love the way you firmed up the render of Maelstrom and added all kinds of nifty background details. This looks like an illustration in a book of fairytales.

Oh, this is amazing! The background details are brilliant, and the facial expressions are perfect. Thank you!

Awesome! The animal-headed people are wonderful and I <3 Nereid and her body language. =)

I looooove the antler in the foreground!

Woofies!

Actually, I really like the way her tailcoat trails over the horse's back.

OH MOLLY. SO disapproving! And Nereid! And the puma-woman and her escort! What a lovely piece! Thank you!

I like the sense of walking into the moment just after everyone is turning to react to the shadowed figure, it's very dynamic!

I'm REALLY enjoying the development of this image. The detail in the background is lovely too! Thank you!

(I've let my readers know about this, and I've also mentioned to them that they can nominate scenes, since my brain is stuck in the big ol' story climax right now.)
