Well done! I like your rough yet detailed style on this drawing, especially in the bottom right corner: one the one hand, you have a very detailed tentacle, but on the other, you have some loose, wild marks that don't form coherent shapes. You have a very interesting concept, and all of your perspective looks right to me. The composition is nice except I am a little bothered by the octopus' head being right in the center of the drawing. One way to make the drawing really pop is to thicken lines in the foreground to bring the tentacles forward. Similarly, darkness brings your drawing forward, whereas lightness sends it back, the reverse of your composition. If you need to put lightness in the foreground, you can use contrast between light spots and either thick lines or the darkness of any shadows. Overall, you've done a wonderful job, but there is always room for improvement! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=":) (Smile)"/>
