I just call this a "Tyr Pet", bcause Tyr was the one who made it. I'm not sure I like this very much, tho. It has an ugly nose rofl


Watermark is in a weird place, I know. But it like ruined the picture. I HATE the tail. Its looks SO ugly!

EDIT:
NO crits or advice please!
DOn't see the point in a watermark on this? I do. Theres lots of art theives, especialy on dA(From what i've seen). I posted it there, so thats why the WM is there.

I'm also taking background ideas, nothing too hard or too detailed.

OMG! Amazing!

[maculata]

lol thanks

It looks great! I see nothing wrong with the nose. May I suggest making the watermark a bit less dark? Don't get rid of it just make it lighter.

[maculata]

well...the nose is too big lol


Yeah, I'll do that. Thanks for telling me!

Cool drawing! I see a few problems with anatomy, though. c:
And honestly, I don't see the point of a watermark unless you're TWG90. It's not necessary unless you know people have been stealing your artwork and claiming its theirs and you know they will continue. Regardless, it depletes from the picture quality anyway.

yeah...uh...this isn't here to talk about the watermark. I still have a right to add it (Sorry if I sound rude or anything, I'm just in a rlly bad mood, but I don't want to disscus it)

And about the antaomy-i don't really see how it is. I barely showed it.(Unless your talking about the shading. I did it a weird and new way, so it still looks a little wonky) But I'm not taking crits/advice, I just forgot to say tht in the main post. They get me too upset sometimes.

Well you'll never get better if you don't accept crits! c;
And you can work on anatomy by just looking at real wolves/dogs, or asking someone to redline it :3

Yeah,I know. I look at thousands of helpful tuts on dA, and practice on paper, or here. idk y, but i think working here is less work then on paper. rofl

Photos NEVER(Not yelling, just felt like "CAPS LOCK"-ing it lol) help me, unless its a horse, or something not so furry . I find looking at artists with more EXP very helpful. Like Neara, Lilian Nightshade, TWG90 etc., etc.. But I'm also a "self-taught" artist.

What helps me is I imagine if the animal actually makes that pose, and/or if if would look odd if it did. Not sure if that works for everyone, though~
