I originally colored this....what, 4 years ago? Ugh, I think I was still just shading with an opaque black and highlighting with white back then.... Uncatchable Bounty by Ziggyfin
I'm happy with how this came out, though any critiques are welcome! And of course Tracy's lines are superb!

in general, the picture looks good but there is some points you can improve to make it more immersive and powerful for the eye ! (woah, i'm talking fancy!)

- We don't feel enough the sense of depth so maybe adding a little more blue tone to the background ? Like you see, the palm tree at the left of the panel TURQUOISE HILL, make it waaaayyyy more blue ! Make everything swimming in the blue sky, when it's far from the scene ! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w…" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="387" title=";) (Wink)"/>

- The explosions are looking good but they are supposed to be a powerful light source ! You can make them project yellow light on Sonic and the objects near them? ^^ adding a little Rim light (it's the line of light in the border of your subject s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/5…)

- Add more black smoke on the explosions, there are nasty to breathe and dangerous ! We need to feel more danger in this messy scene ! Also, the little piece of cloudy explosion at the very down-left of the picture, it's supposed to be near from us, so don't hesitate to make it a little darker and blurred if you can ^^

- Add more dark tones on objects that are supposed to have metallic textures (missiles and the break box).

Now it's time for compliments !

I love the way you've put a subtil touch of yellow on Sonic's fingers because of the ring he is holding !
And a pleasant variation of tones in the shoes that are in fast movement ! Also love the rocks near the explosions, that are in a very sweet tone of green married to yellow there !

However, I truly think you are talented, keep the hard work !!!!!! I hope this critique helped you and was not too..harsh maybe? ^^
