Not so fond of tonight's growth, myself. It's more than the lines... the design itself just reminds me of an amalgamation of things instead of a solid concept. The antlers look like they're behind its head, and I think it would've benefited from moving them forward and showing where they imbed in the skull. I probably would've taken out or reduced some of the details so the dog itself stands out more than the features it's made up of.
This year's litter hasn't bowled me over just yet; there's a good amount of nice things, but not so many that have jumped out as instant favorites. There's still growing pups though, so I'm holding out for some more things that make me go "wow". Webbed dog I'm looking at you

So far my top favorites are Saikiyo's (detailed and a little creepiness, but not overdone) and PitchBlack's (simple, effective, and the eyes are nice).
