Koiyote- Ooh, so cute ^^ I think the front leg on the ground is a little thick and too straight. Also, the foot closest to us should tuck under the thigh/knee area a bit more. But I love the face and 'coloring'[even though it's black and white xD].

I tried to paint a wolf digitally. I couldn't really get the fur right, but I'm a bit proud of it x3

Ahh, that link worked :) The last one just took me to your DA page ^_^! I can't redline right now, cause i don't have my tablet with me, but i can give you some written critique ^_^ (well, i can try my best :D)

First off i like the realistic style of the snow leopard ^_^! It's cute! the upper torso and face are pretty alright to me, the ears may be a little small/face a little round, and the eyes might be a little small as well. But that being said, when snow leopards are in full winter coat, they are very fluffy! Maybe you could make the face a little more fluffy, just add some extra fur in place of the roundness of the face as it looks very smooth and flat right now. The right eye needs to be angled a tinsy bit more towards the nose, as the leopard is facing slightly away, well, it's not facing the front ^_^ But it's still a very cute expression!

The main problem comes with the legs..The right paw and leg is mostly alright, however i think you need a little more definition of the upper leg (above the elbow) as it seems to just disappear into the chest. You actually have it with the shading, but it needs more defining, i think. The left leg is what's throwing a lot of the proportions off though. The angle that it's at is wrong for the angle the leopard is sitting in. I would bring that leg down slightly (so it's not level with the back legs anymore) and perhaps more into the body as well. I would suggest looking at a cat skeleton to understand the bone structure of the legs and also the shoulders. You've defined the shoulders (where the legs would attach too) but there's no clear "line" that attaches the legs

The feet on the back legs needs to be longer, or more defined. The big "drumstick" of the leg (where the thigh bone, knee and lower leg bone is) needs to be rounder and more connected inwards to the foot. for example, if you look at this (random picture from google) you can see the length of the foot, and also how the legs curl round to join up. Because the leopard is fluffy, it doesn't have to be very defined.

Uhh that's all i can think of right now ^_^; i hope this helps at least a little bit!! I could try redline later if you really wanted, however i'm not very good at redlining ¬.¬ *heh heh heh* so i might mess it up more X3!

I don't quite have the time to redline, but...
@Seneca: Their torsos seem to be a bit short, which causes their arms to look short as well. I'll see if I can pull some sort of redline together tonight, but I've never done it before, so no promises x3
The main reason I don't have much time is also the reason I came to post here.
Would anyone have any advice on creating a political cartoon? Not only can I completely not grasp the style, but I can't seem to think of a witty, one-panel commentary on the end of the civil war. Any tips?

This is from a few pages back, but, I'd really appreciate it if you could redline. <3 I've been staring at it for hours and I can't figure out what to do with it.

Hopefully I'm not going to mess up this time, but I'm livestreaming again https://join.me/743-144-462 I'd really like any tips you could give me while I draw, it's for a really nice customer, and I have to add a cape to her wolf. Cloth isn't really my thing, nor are canines!

Does anyone have any tutorials for human hands or human noses/mouths? I've decided to start trying to draw people and I'm not doing so bad on anatomy for the most part(at least I think so) but those things are really kicking my butt.
